OK. Looked at your review of the .yaml and the "uniqueItems" is probably the bit I didn't think of. With that I can limit this but it's still a little awkward. I still haven't figured out how to force data-lanes and lane-polarities to have the same number of items, too. I'll add this as an add-on patch to my v2 and folks can decide if they like it or hate it. # See ../../media/video-interface.txt for details. data-lanes: oneOf: - minItems: 1 maxItems: 1 uniqueItems: true items: enum: - 0 - 1 description: If you have 1 logical lane it can go to either physical port 0 or port 1. Port 0 is suggested. - minItems: 2 maxItems: 2 uniqueItems: true items: enum: - 0 - 1 description: If you have 2 logical lanes they can be reordered on physical ports 0 and 1. - minItems: 4 maxItems: 4 uniqueItems: true items: enum: - 0 - 1 - 2 - 3 description: If you have 4 logical lanes they can be reordered on in any way. -Doug
