If the device is not being driven by a GPIO or an external device, the user should connect the /SYNC_OUT to /SYNC_IN. We could assume that this is the case if the GPIO is not present in the devicetree, maybe put that into the description. The sync-out-sync-in property as a boolean can be quite redundant, since we also need to remove the GPIO. > >/SYNC_IN may be driven by other AD7768-1 > /SYNC_OUT pin (also Figure 133). > This is only case we are about for sync in I think. > > As long as there isn't a valid 'not connected' It think we are fine with a boolean. > If opt for a single node instace, thats ok; otherwise, David's trigger-sources suggestion seems to be the best approach. > > That is too much to describe with a boolean. > > > > If David's suggestion of using a trigger-source doesn't fit, this property > > should at least become an enum or string. > > > > > + type: boolean > > > + > > > reset-gpios: > > > maxItems: 1 > > > > > > @@ -65,7 +74,6 @@ required: > > > - vref-supply > > > - spi-cpol > > > - spi-cpha > > > - - adi,sync-in-gpios > > > > > > patternProperties: > > > "^channel@([0-9]|1[0-5])$": > > > @@ -89,6 +97,20 @@ patternProperties: > > > allOf: > > > - $ref: /schemas/spi/spi-peripheral-props.yaml# > > > > > > + # adi,sync-in-gpios and adi,sync-in-spi are mutually exclusive (neither is also valid) > > > + - if: > > > + required: > > > + - adi,sync-in-gpios > > > + then: > > > + properties: > > > + adi,sync-in-spi: false > > > + - if: > > > + required: > > > + - adi,sync-in-spi > > > + then: > > > + properties: > > > + adi,sync-in-gpios: false > > > + > > > unevaluatedProperties: false > > > > > > examples: > > > -- > > > 2.34.1 > > > >
