Sorry that does not make sense to me, why not specify the values to be used here instead of defining your own name scheme! Only older soc it should create 16 channels and new 22 (hint this is hw description so perfectly okay to specify in DT or in using driver_data and compatible for each version > > > > > + > > > + required: > > > + - reg > > > + - intel,name > > > + - intel,chans > > > + > > > + > > > + ldma-channels: > > > + type: object > > > + description: > > > + This sub-node must contain a sub-node for each DMA channel. > > > + properties: > > > + '#address-cells': > > > + const: 1 > > > + '#size-cells': > > > + const: 0 > > > + > > > + patternProperties: > > > + "^ldma-channels@[0-15]+$": > > > + type: object > > > + > > > + properties: > > > + reg: > > > + items: > > > + - enum: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15] > > > + description: > > > + Which channel this node refers to. > > > + > > > + intel,desc_num: > > > + $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32 > > > + description: > > > + Per channel maximum descriptor number.

No I dont think there is but it needs to make sense :-) -- ~Vinod
