The only worry I have is whether some SoCs don't configure things like pinmux function in the same place as pad function (pullup/down, tristate), and hence whether a generic binding is generally applicable. I suppose the code could always ignore unused properties. I wonder how much of this is relevant to Linus W's pinctrl API? Note that in the updated patch series I just posted, I reworked the binding a little; Tegra has two sets of pin-groups, one configuring muxing, pullup/ down, and tri-state, and the other configuring various driver strength/ rate properties. Hence, the tree is now e.g.: pinmux: pinmux@70000000 { compatible = "nvidia,tegra20-pinmux"; reg = < 0x70000000 0xc00 >; nvidia,mux-groups { cdev1 { nvidia,function = "plla_out"; }; cdev2 { nvidia,function = "pllp_out4"; nvidia,pull-down; nvidia,tristate; }; }; nvidia,drive-groups { sdio1 { nvidia,schmitt; nvidia,drive-power = <1>; nvidia,pull-down-strength = <31>; nvidia,pull-up-strength = <31>; nvidia,slew-rate-rising = <3>; nvidia,slew-rate-falling = <3>; }; }; }; But it's probably still reasonably easy to make the parser for the mux-groups node generic. Perhaps it makes sense for all SoCs to have a "mux-settings" node, even if they don't have any other custom nodes? -- nvpublic -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-tegra" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
