Hi Sylwester Thanks for picking up these patches! In general both look good to me, just a couple of nit-picks, that I couldn't help remarking:-) On Mon, 31 Dec 2012, Sylwester Nawrocki wrote: > From: Guennadi Liakhovetski <g.liakhovetski@xxxxxx> > > This patch adds a document describing common OF bindings for video > capture, output and video processing devices.

This spacing before ":" looks strange to me. I personally prefer the normal English rule - "x: y," i.e. no space before and a space after, but I wouldn't remark on your choice of a space on each side in this specific case, if it was consistent. Whereas sometimes having one space and sometimes having none looks weird to me. I would go for "no space before ':'" throughout this document. > +- slave-mode : a boolean property, run the link in slave mode.

As we discussed before, both "busses" and "buses" spellings are commonly used at different locations around the world, but I think we should stick to only one of them in a single document. It looks weird to have "buses" in one line and "busses" in the following one. > +- data-shift: on parallel data busses, if bus-width is used to specify the > + number of data lines, data-shift can be used to specify which data lines are > + used, e.g. "bus-width=<10>; data-shift=<2>;" means, that lines 9:2 are used. > +- hsync-active : active state of HSYNC signal, 0/1 for LOW/HIGH respectively. > +- vsync-active : active state of VSYNC signal, 0/1 for LOW/HIGH respectively. > + Note, that if HSYNC and VSYNC polarities are not specified, embedded > + synchronization may be required, where supported. > +- data-active : similar to HSYNC and VSYNC, specifies data line polarity. > +- field-even-active: field signal level during the even field data transmission. > +- pclk-sample : rising (1) or falling (0) edge to sample the pixel clock signal. Yes, it was in my original document too, but don't we mean "sample data on rising (1) or falling (0) edge of the pixel clock signal?"
