Multiple of CN9130? 2x CN9130? Nothing happens, does not really matter. Anyway the compatible is just to uniquely identify the device for users, not represent some programming model, because there is no programming model of a board. > >> What is 9131 and 9132? > I have no idea who came up with 9131 and 9132. > But explanation is given by Grzegorz Jaszczyk <jaz@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > when he submitted cn9131-db.dts (Marvell evaluation board): > > Extend the support of the CN9130 by adding an external CP115. > The last number indicates how many external CP115 are used. You use the compatibles in your patchset, so you should know, not me. I have zero knowledge, also actually almost zero interest, in learning your particular platform. I tried to fixup some bindings and maintainers for Marvell: failed with not really helpful comments. Therefore I don't care anymore about Marvell. You or your platform maintainers should know what is this about and come with explanation to the community. Best regards, Krzysztof
