I assume this matches existing drivers which do not use IDs but map the
binding to hardware value? I remember we talked about changing it, so if
something happened about this and it could be changed: please change.
I'm not aware of such discussion, and I don't really see the issue...
thoses are IDs, and yes they match the Hardware offsets, and ?
Bindings are not for hardware offsets/values/addresses. It's just not a
binding.
I quickly looked at your driver patch and it confirms: not a binding.
Binding constant is used by the driver and DTS consumer.
I am really sure we had this talk in the past, but could be I think
about different platform. Since this is not a binding, I do not think
claiming there is any ABI here is reasonable. Feel free to store them
with other hardware values, like in DTS headers etc. We already moved to
DTS headers several such "non-binding" constants.
Un-acked.
I looked at my archives and we did talk about it and you were CCed:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-devicetree/c088e01c-0714-82be-8347-6140daf56640@xxxxxxxxxx/
simple-reset is an exception.
So to recap:
That's not a binding. Don't add some real values to binding headers
because it is not a binding then.
So what's exactly a binding then?
Binding headers is interface needed (necessary) between implementation
(like Linux drivers) and DTS.
random linear numbers that means nothing can be a binding
but registers numbers can't be ? why ? I still don't understand, why this suddenly gets problematic ?
There is no interface here. Drivers don't use them. It's not "suddenly"
problematic, I commented on this year or two years ago and we also
started moving such header-abusers out of bindings.

Got it. Will delete amlogic,t7-reset.h and use the hardware numbers
directly in the DT. >
Hi Neil,
As you know, Amlogic reset controller is divided into several groups: reset0, reset1, ..., resetN. I'd like to discuss the rationality of splitting the one device node of reset controller into device nodes according to the groups. Then we can use the bit number within the 'resets' property.
reset0: reset-controller@2000 {
...
};
reset1: reset-controller@2004 {
...
};
...
What do you think?
No since you'll basically add a node per register, you need to add a node for the while reset HW function, another
solution would be to split the phandle arguments in 2, the first first would be the reset bank, and the second one
the reset line for the bank.
But still it's a regression in readability to drop the macros, until gpios or pins the reset number doesn't mean anything per se.
What stops you from putting the header in the DTS? Just like others are
doing?
Ok so now I understand, Kelvin just keep the header but move it in arch/arm64/boot/dts/amlogic along the DT patch and drop it from the bindings patch.
Thanks,
Neil
Best regards,
Krzysztof
