So I checked the manuals, all of the D1, T113-s and R329 are the same
in this respect:
- There are two SPI controllers, the "first" one is what this series
fully supports.
- The second SPI controller has some additional registers and two
extra bits in the control register to drive the DBI extension, but is
otherwise compatible to the first one:
So I'd suggest to introduce the following compatible string
combinations to the binding *now*. We don't support the DBI bits (yet),
but this would be the correct hardware description:
For the R329:
spi0: spi@4025000 {
compatible = "allwinner,sun50i-r329-spi";
....
spi1: spi@4026000 {
compatible = "allwinner,sun50i-r329-spi-dbi",
"allwinner,sun50i-r329-spi";
For the D1/T113s:
spi0: spi@4025000 {
compatible = "allwinner,sun20i-d1-spi",
"allwinner,sun50i-r329-spi";
....
spi1: spi@4026000 {
compatible = "allwinner,sun20i-d1-spi-dbi",
"allwinner,sun50i-r329-spi-dbi",
"allwinner,sun50i-r329-spi";
I leave that as an exercise to the reader to convert that into the
minimal set of DT schema lines ;-)
I would suggest to add both the D1/T113s and the R329 bindings in this
one patch, to reduce the churn. I guess if you do this, you could even
drop Icenowy's authorship on this patch, since it has not much to do
with the original version anymore.
Cheers,
Andre
