I don't know what Stefan's approach is, but I do not think that a bindings patch should be dropped. The waveshare might be a clone, but it is a distinct device. If the same driver can control both, then the compatible setups that should be permitted are: compatible = "raspberrypi,7inch-touchscreen-panel"; and compatible = "waveshare,7inch-touchscreen-panel", "raspberrypi,7inch-touchscreen-panel"; Cheers, Conor. > >> and it can be drived by panel-raspberrypi-touchscreen.c. > >> Add compatible property for it. > >> > >> Signed-off-by: Keith Zhao <keith.zhao@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > >> Signed-off-by: Shengyang Chen <shengyang.chen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > >> --- > >> .../bindings/display/panel/raspberrypi,7inch-touchscreen.yaml | 4 +++- > >> 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) > >> > >> diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/panel/raspberrypi,7inch-touchscreen.yaml b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/panel/raspberrypi,7inch-touchscreen.yaml > >> index 22a083f7bc8e..e4e6cb4d4e5b 100644 > >> --- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/panel/raspberrypi,7inch-touchscreen.yaml > >> +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/panel/raspberrypi,7inch-touchscreen.yaml > >> @@ -22,7 +22,9 @@ description: |+ > >> > >> properties: > >> compatible: > >> - const: raspberrypi,7inch-touchscreen-panel > >> + enum: > >> + - raspberrypi,7inch-touchscreen-panel > >> + - waveshare,7inch-touchscreen-panel > >> > >> reg: > >> const: 0x45 > >> -- > >> 2.17.1 > >> > > > thanks. > > Best Regards, > Shengyang >
