IMHO this is no reason to not use the name of the oldest SoC with this variant. I don't know how the SoC names are in the broadcom family, but if they were (in order of age, oldest first): ant bear crocodile and ant and crocodile use the same IP block we would have a) with v1, v2: ant: compatible = "brcm,kona-pwm-v1"; bear: compatible = "brcm,kona-pwm-v2"; crocodile: compatible = "brcm,kona-pwm-v1"; ; and b) with the SoC naming: ant: compatible = "brcm,kona-ant-pwm"; bear: compatible = "brcm,kona-bear-pwm"; crocodile: compatible = "brcm,kona-crocodile-pwm", "brcm,kona-ant-pwm"; (If you want, drop "brcm,kona-crocodile-pwm", but keeping it is more defensive.) I like b) (with "...-crocodile-...") better than a). crocodile using "...-ant-..." is not more ugly than crocodile using "...-v1". This is also a tad more robust because if broadcom releases kona-dolphin and someone finds a minor difference between the IPs used on ant and crocodile it depends on the order of these events who gets v3, while with the SoC naming the result is clear. (OK, and given that "brcm,kona-pwm" is already fixed, both approaches need slight adaption, but I guess you still get what I meant.) Best regards Uwe

Thanks for your thoughts and explanation. It is unfortunate devicetree has no proper guidelines or documentation on binding naming. In the interest of getting this upstream we can name it "brcm, omega-pwm". We can drop kona from the binding name as that architecture is really no more - only IP derived from it is - hence the name kona-v2 previously. > > Best regards > Uwe > > Cheers, Scott

The other issue with versions is they should be meanful such as corresponding to version tags in IP repos. Often, I'd guess anything with a 'v1' is just what some s/w person made up. Of course, we only can really know that for opensource IP or programmable logic IP.

Generally, you should have "brcm,kona-crocodile-pwm" in case there's some difference found later.
