I assume this is never more than 4 (or 2 even)? Do you think we should add the contraint in the common binding? In my option, the limit of the max/min rpm should be declared by the binding if necessary, because the usage of each fan monitor is based on the connection of the tach pin. >> + div: > Too generic of a name. >> + description: >> + Fan clock divisor > But what is a fan clock? This is the divisor for the tachometer sampling clock, which determines the sensitivity of the tach pin.

So, the description should be changed to 'The default desired fan speed in RPM,' and we shouldn't mention the timing of the property's operation in the DT, is that correct? >> + $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32 >> + >> + mode: > Too generic. >> + description: >> + Select the operational mode of the fan. > What are modes? Spin and don't spin? The mode is used to indicate the driving mode of the fan (DC, PWM and so on).

I don't think it's necessary for the 'reg' because the case you mentioned is already covered by the property 'tach-ch' and the 'pwms'. > + > + label: > + description: > + Optional fan label > + > + fan-supply: > + description: > + Power supply for fan. > + > +additionalProperties: true > + > +... > -- > 2.25.1 >
