It has no other properties currently. In the example, it looks like the gpu.

I missed that before, but sorry, that's not how you should be using compatible strings. What was your issue with OF graph? It can be difficult to parse. I'd like to improve that with more common parsing code. >>> +- compatible: Should be "brcm,bcm2835-hdmi" >>> +- reg: Physical base address and length of the two register ranges >>> + ("HDMI" and "HD", in that order) >>> +- interrupts: The interrupt numbers >>> + See bindings/interrupt-controller/brcm,bcm2835-armctrl-ic.txt >>> +- ddc: phandle of the I2C controller used for DDC EDID probing >>> +- clocks: a) hdmi: The HDMI state machine clock >>> + b) pixel: The pixel clock. >>> + >>> +Optional properties for HDMI: >>> +- hpd-gpio: The GPIO pin for HDMI hotplug detect (if it doesn't appear >> >> *-gpio is deprecated, so "hpd-gpios". >> >> Really, I think this and ddc should be in hdmi-connector binding node. >> What has been done for bindings so far is all over the map though. > > You say hpd-gpios is deprectated, but that I should use the > hdmi-connector binding that uses hpd-gpios. Which one is it? If > hpd-gpios deprecated, what is supposed to be used instead? No, I said "hpd-gpio" with no "s" is deprecated. In other words, always use -gpios whether it is 1 or more gpio. The connector part is a separate issue of the location of these properties. If you think about it, the gpio line and I2C bus have nothing to do with the HDMI node. That's different than cases of HDMI bridges which have a HPD signal and dedicated I2C controller. Most examples in the kernel have not followed this and do as you have. I only have a desire to have common binding and code to handle connectors at this point, but that is the direction I want to go.
