In the same way that "neon" should mean something to someone doing arm64. Nevertheless, the plan is to drop the string side of this entirely & actually document the meaning of -i/-m/-a etc. > > + description: > > + Catch-all property for ISA extensions that do not need any special > > + handling, and of which all known versions are compatible with their > > + original revision. > > + $ref: "/schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/string" > > Drop quotes. > > > + enum: > > + - v1.0.0 > > Your example should not validate here... you have there v2.0.0 and v1.0.1 As noted in the commit message, this is illustrative only & cannot work. There doesn't appear to be a way to make the patternProperty fallback more specific than the explicitly defined properties. I wanted to get something out for initial thoughts before trying to do further wrangling, lest it be a complete waste of time. Consensus seems to be that versions are a thing of the past and that property-presence based probing is a better idea. See the discussion on the cover for that. It does conveniently mean that all this complexity can be thrown in the bin. Cheers, Conor.
