It explicitly includes ../dsi-controller.yaml, which describes generic DSI host controller. The latter one includes an example of the DSI panel.

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 Why do you call it a patch? Also if you have read the description, you would have known that the bindings describe the Mobile Display Subsystem (MDSS) itself. And then it explicitly tells that the MDSS on that platform has (among others) DSI blocks with proper compatibles. > It have a ref to mdss-common.yaml, but I cannot find the ref direct me > to dsi-controller.yaml. Because qcom,sm8550-mdss.yaml doesn't describe the DSI controller. I think I have already mentioned a file that describes the DSI controller, it is called display/msm/dsi-controller-main.yaml. Not the best name, but it is quickly revealed by grepping for either of the DSI compatible strings. And the dsi-controller-main.yaml has ` - $ref: ../dsi-controller.yaml#` string inside. > 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.

If you had compared the qcom,SOC-mdss.yaml, you would have seen that they provide tight binding between compatible strings used for all the subblocks. The `mdss-common.yaml` describes MDSS common properties. It describes everything except the platform specifics. It can not be made more common. And there is no duplication. If you think you can improve the bindings, please send the patches.
