Thanks for your work on the bindings. :) It would be great to find something acceptable for mainlining.

So it would work there to just use vdd18 and vdd10. The same is true for reference design, so it's probably safe to assume this can be simplified. > > > + hdmi5v-supply: > > > + description: 5V power supply for the HDMI. > > > + > > > + hdmi_vt-supply: > > > + description: Termination voltage for HDMI input. > > > > Maybe hdmi-vt-supply ? > > > > > + > > > + clocks: > > > + description: The input clock specifier. > > > + maxItems: 1 > > > > How about > > > > items: > > - description: The input clock specifier. > > > > > + > > > + clock-names: > > > + items: > > > + - const: xtal > > > + > > > + hpd-gpios: > > > + description: | > > > + In USB Type-C applications, DP_HPD has no use.

Seems like HPD will be handled by HDMI controller on many/all? other platforms too. Why have it here? > > > + enable-gpios: > > > + description: Chip power down control.

It seems that this is handled internally by the ANX7688 via OCM firmware. And it's not really gpio either, it's an analog input with AD converter hooked to it internally. > > > + interrupts: > > > + description: | > > > + The interrupt notifies 4 possible events - TCPC ALERT int, PD int, DP int, HDMI int. > > > + maxItems: 1 > > > + > > > + cabledet-gpios: > > > + description: An output gpio, indicates by the device that a cable is plugged. > > > + maxItems: 1 > > > + > > > + vbus-ctrl-gpios: > > > + description: > > > + External VBUS power path.

This control is *partially* performed in reference design directly by the OCM. OCM only decides which CC pin to switch the VCONN regulator to, and informs the SoC when the base VCONN regulator for the switches needs to be enabled. So vconn-en1/2 gpios are irrelevant to the driver, but the driver needs to control VCONN power supply somehow and defer control over it to the OCM. I don't know how to express it in the bindings. Maybe a vconn-supply here on the anx7688 node? It may also be part of the usb-connector binding, but this is really when it comes to anx7688 a parent regulator for the switches, and switches are not controlled by this driver, just their parent regulator is.
