You can't redefine its type and location here. Hi Rob, I didn't redefine the type of property. The type of the aspeed,fan-tach-ch is unit8-array in aspeed-pwm-tacho.txt. https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/hwmon/aspeed-pwm-tacho.txt#L48 https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/hwmon/aspeed-pwm-tacho.txt#L71 >To repeat what I've said in previous versions, work with others to >define a common fan and fan controller binding. Otherwise, anything new >with fan related properties is simply going to be rejected. Okay I will try to work with Naresh for defining a common fan binding. Thanks for your suggestion. Hi Naresh, As Rob mentioned, it would be advisable for my dt-bindings to reference the common fan bindings instead of introducing specific properties. I noticed that you have already submitted a related patch to the community, which seems to be pending for around 10 months. https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20221116213615.1256297-2-Naresh.Solanki@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/ Do you have plans to send the next version of the patch? Alternatively, can I proceed to cherry-pick this version of the patch and continue with the upstreaming process in my patch serial? Thanks Best Regards, Billy Tsai
