Hi Chris, From this: >> + >> +The standard FSI master node >> +---------------------------- >> +This node describes a FSI master implmemented fully in hardware >> +with dedicated input/output pins required for its function (i.e. >> +not using generic GPIO pins). >> +Required property: >> + compatible = "ibm,fsi-master" and this: >> +Example: >> + >> +fsi-master { >> + compatible = "ibm,fsi-master-gpio", "ibm,fsi-master"; > > From the description, these should be mutually exclusive. I agree with Rob here. The intention is for "ibm,fsi-master" to be an abstract master -- simply indicating that this node describes a master, with no specific implementation, and "ibm,fsi-master-gpio" to be a GPIO-based implementation. A hardware-based FSI master would have a different compatible value, based on the hardware. We should remove references to implementations in the "The standard FSI master node" section, because this is independent of implementation. >> + clk-gpios = <&gpio 0>, <&gpio 6>; >> + data-gpios = <&gpio 1>, <&gpio 7>; >> + enable-gpios = <&gpio 2>, <&gpio 8>; >> + trans-gpios = <&gpio 3>, <&gpio 9>; >> + mux-gpios = <&gpio 4>, <&gpio 10>; Do we support multiple-link masters? This example implies a 2-link master. Cheers, Jeremy
