I meant first one. using "qcom,rng-ee".
I am looking for generic compatible string for all SoCs for which core
clock can be optional, same as we have "qcom,prng-ee".
If we are using SoC name in compatible string, for each SoC support we
need to update qcom,prng.yaml file.
Please suggest approach that we can followed!
Thanks,
Om

Instead of having SoC name "qcom,sm8450-prng-ee" we could use "qcom,rng-ee" as
new IP core is not longer pseudo random number generator. so "prng" can be
changed to "rng". Clock configuration is not needed on sm8550 as well. So it is
better to use generic compatible string.
I am not sure if I understand your point. You mean drop "p" in "prng" or
drop specific compatible? The first depends in the block - if it is
still pseudo. The second - why? That's contradictory to what is in the
guidelines and what we have been pushing for very long time. Going
against guidelines would require proper justification (and not some
usual justification "I don't need it", because we talked about this many
many times). One should not bring downstream poor practices to upstream,
but the other way. You should fix downstream code.
