Ok, but these are common properties like max-rx-timeout-ms and others in this bindings so I did not expect to have to explicit set a vendor...well I really dont know what's the rule here, so I went for similarity. > > > + $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32 > > + description: > > + An optional value, expressed in bytes, representing the maximum size > > + allowed for the payload of messages transmitted on this transport. > > + If set it is recommended to be greater or equal than the minimum size > > + required to support all the messages defined by the set of protocols > > + implemented on this platform. > > Sounds kind of broken if less than the minimum... > Well, absolutely but the minimum payload really depends on how many protocols the SCMI server in firmware supports on this platform...the set of implemented messages (some are optional) AND the spec version number...so I cannot state really a fixed safe minimum here...it was just a polite warning for the user not to shot himself in the foot... ..but whoever missteps over this will see a lot of comms errors indeed...I will drop the warning in V2 > > + > > + max-msg: > > Vendor prefix and could be a bit more specific what this is. Ok I will explain more in v2. Thanks, Cristian
