It's for a separate architecture, with a separate driver, maintained out of tree by a separate community, with a separate set of requirements as evidenced by the other thread. And that's all fine in itself, but there's very little reason to put these two bindings in the same file. We could also turn this around, why is it important that it's in the same file? > >> The whole family of IMG GPUs is PowerVR and SGX and Rogue are generations 5 and 6++: > >> > >> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PowerVR > > > > That's not really relevant as far as bindings go. > > But maybe for choosing binding file names.

It's something that can also be easily grepped, and the name is never going to reflect all the compatibles in a binding so it's what you'll end up doing anyway.

Again, hard disagree there. Maxime
