Can't you have a single divider value and driver convert to register values? Really, you should specify the PWM period in ns/us and calculate the divider based on the input clock freq. (i.e. use the clock binding). There's already PWM binding to specify the period. I think you should have a node for the fan using the PWM binding and perhaps moving some of these properties to the fan node. > + > +- fan_tach_enable : indicates fan tach enable of type M/N/O as per the > + AST2400/AST2500 datasheet. boolean value. > + > +- fan_tach_clock_division : indicates fan tach clock division as per the > + AST2400/AST2500 datasheet. > + integer value in the range 0 to 7. > + 0 indicates divide 4, 1 indicates divide 16, > + 2 indicates divide 64, 3 indicates divide 256 > + and so on till 7 indicates divide 65536. > + > +- fan_tach_mode_selection : indicates fan tach mode mode selection as per the > + AST2400/AST2500 datasheet. integer value in the > + range 0 to 2. 0 indicates falling edge, 1 indicates > + rising edge and 2 indicates both edges. > + > +- fan_tach_period : indicates fan tach period as per the AST2400/AST2500 > + datasheet. integer value (can be upto 16 bits long). > + > +pwm_port subnode format: > +======================== > +Under pwm_port subnode there can upto 8 child nodes each indicating values > +for one of the 8 PWM output ports. > + > +Required properties for each child node(starting from PWM A through PWM H): > +- enable : enable PWM #X port, X ranges from A through H. boolean value.

I don't understand the connection here. You have a tach block with 16 inputs on the SoC, so why the GPIOs? If the GPIOs go to the fan, then a fan node should have the GPIO properties. > + > +- enable : enable fan tach #X, X ranges from 0 through 16. boolean value. 'status' property is the standard way to enable a node or not. Not sure if that makes sense here though. > + > +- pwm_source : indicates PWM source of fan tach #X, X ranges from 0 through 16. > + integer value in the range 0 to 7. 0 indicates PWM port A, > + 1 indicates PWM port B and so on till 7 indicates PWM port H. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
