I cannot parse it. Address/size cells never have ranges or children.
They cannot have. These are uint32 properties.

I disagreed with the patch before. You resubmit it without really
addressing my concerns.
I am not sure if this is correct fix and I want to fix all of such
errors (there are multiple of them) in the same way. Feel free to
propose common solution based on arguments.
Per my understanding, "qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl" driver node like "mdss_dsi1"
don't need to have address/size-cells properties.
Just because dtc says so? And what about bindings?
I don't find any reason why "qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl" driver node need to
have address/size-cells properties. Document Bindings should also be fixed.
Feel free to let us know whether there is different idea of
"address/size-cells" needed for the "qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl" driver node.
The bindings expressed that idea. If the binding is incorrect, fix the
binding and the DTS. If the binding is correct, provide rationale why it
somehow does not apply here etc.
Our plan is to fix the bindings as well.
In case you have missed the question, I just re-place it here:
While there are about 22 different soc dtsi and it's document binding
files needed to be fixed. Shall we fix it for all qcom related soc usage
in one patch, or we'd better to split into different patches according
to soc specifically?
Don't touch the bindings unless you understand what you are doing.
Your patch will be NAKed. There can be a DSI panel attached to the DSI
host, which means there is a need for #address-cells / #size-cells.
Could you please help to elaborate more on details? Like what's the
right example here for the "qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl" driver node needed to
have "#address-cells"/"#size-cells".
As I wrote, the attached DSI panels make use of #address-cells / #size-cells.
Please take a look at the sdm845-mtp.dts, which provides a complex
enough example (a panel which is attached to both DSI0 and DSI1
hosts).
I can see the panel example now.
While panel@0 likely node is not at in the binding that I've checked. There are quite a few of binding document about the same driver. I checked 5 of the bindings document and moste of them are alike, and don't have the panel example.:(
There is a single bindings documents describing MSM DSI controller, display/MSM/dsi-controller-main.yaml . It explicitly includes ../dsi-controller.yaml, which describes generic DSI host controller. The latter one includes an example of the DSI panel. MSM DSI bindings do not have to include one, there is nothing platform specific there.
Thx to chime in that we have put a good amount of time here.
Can't quite catch you here.
Please stop wasting the time on dtc warning. The bindings (and the
file) are correct.
I don't agree here.
Either it is a wrong usage of "#address-cells"/"#size-cells", or dtc
warning should be fixed with this usage take into account.
"dtb check" will be a good guideline for developers to follow, I don't
think it is wasting time here.
It is a guideline, but not a rule. No warnings by default is more of
the rule. W=1 enables warnings that developers have to classify and
cope with.
E.g. I don't think dtc correctly handles the case when there are both
with-address and no-address nodes (e.g. 'panel@0' and 'ports'). Note,
I might be mistaken there.
Now I understand the issue, here is some thinking from my end, and welcome others to chime in with more ideas:
1. Only put "#address-cells" "#size-cells" right before node of panel@0
No. Cells specification is a property of the host/bus. As such they do not belong to the board DT file.
As "#address-cells" "#size-cells" is not marked as required properties
in the Document dsi-controller.yaml. Did it really needed even
"panel@[0-3]" is not present at current dsi node?
That's good that comes to the initial discussion of current patch here. :)
I can understand that "#address-cells" "#size-cells" cannot be device
tree overlayed by dtbo. While when there is no "panel@[0-3]" nodes shall
we also remove "#address-cells" "#size-cells" properties for dsi node?
2. Align current binding document with "panel@0" examples.
There is already a panel in dsi-controller.yaml. Adding another example is optional. Do you also need an example with the external DSI bridge?
Current binding I am talking about is current patch binding file:
qcom,sm8550-mdss.yaml
It have a ref to mdss-common.yaml, but I cannot find the ref direct me
to dsi-controller.yaml.
In my opinion if the example have "#address-cells" "#size-cells", then
it's better to also include "panel@0" with "reg = <0>" to not confuse.
3. Too many bindings files for driver "qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl", shall we align them into 1 binding files.
There is just one.
Currently I mentioned bindings files was searched the compatible
"qcom,mdss-dsi-ctrl", and find binding docs like "qcom,sm8550-mdss.yaml"
"qcom,sm8450-mdss.yaml" etc.
There is duplicate information on "qcom,sm8550-mdss.yaml" etc, while
"qcom,mdss-common.yaml" is not common enough for my understanding.
4. enhance the dtc warning check if we still want to have "#address-cells" "#size-cells" even if there is no "panel@0" attached.
In my opinion this is a way to go, if any. Did you include devicetree@ ML and the corresponding maintainers into the discussion?
Already included devicetree@ ML at the very beginning.
If the required properties part in each yaml is marked good enough, I
think it can be an input for avoid unnecessary dtc warnings.
@krzy here I try to answer your comments here as well.
I am disagree on leave the warning as it is. And want to do something to improve this. Ideas above.
Let me know if any comments is not right addressed from your comments.
