IMO, Although the watchdog node need to reference the meson_sm node, there is no bus-like dependencies between the devices which the two nodes corresponding to. so i think that the watchdog node as child node of meson_sm maybe not appropriate. > > > Martin > > > [0] https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11211399/ > > . >

The watchdog driver needs the meson SM's dt node, and it depends on the existence of that node. That seems enough of a relationship to warrant having it as child note. Guenter

I only think of the following three methods : 1). update the sm driver，and scan®ister wdt device when the sm driver probes(It is like i2c), but there are too many changes involved. 2). add "simple-bus" key string to compatible of sm node, and it will make the child node is registered as platform device, but it seems that the key string is not match current scene. secure-monitor { compatible = "amlogic,meson-gxbb-sm", "simple-bus"; watchdog { compatible = "amlogic,meson-sec-wdt"; timeout-sec = <60>; } } 3). don't register device, and find directly the watchdog node by using the of_* API in watchdog driver (Eg: linux-4.x/drivers/tee/optee/core.c) secure-monitor { compatible = "amlogic,meson-gxbb-sm"; watchdog { compatible = "amlogic,meson-sec-wdt"; timeout-sec = <60>; } } The method 3 looks better for me, do you have a better suggestion ?
