'interrupt-parent' is never required as it can be in a parent node or a
parent node itself can be an interrupt provider. Where exactly it lives is
outside the scope of a binding schema.

There are multiple interrupt controllers on TI K3 devices, and we need this
property to be defined _specifically_ to point to the relevant interrupt router
parent node.

While what you state in general is true, I cannot have a node not define this on
K3 devices, and end up using the wrong interrupt parent (GIC
interrupt-controller). That's why the conditional compatible check.

But you could.

The parent node can have a default interrupt-parent and child nodes
can override that. It doesn't matter which one is the default though
typically you would want the one used the most to be the default.
Looking at your dts files, it looks like you all did the opposite. The
only way that wouldn't work is if the parent node is if the parent
node has its own 'interrupts' or you are just abusing
'interrupt-parent' where the standard parsing doesn't work.

You are also free to use 'interrupts-extended' anywhere 'interrupts'
is used and then interrupt-parent being present is an error. How you
structure all this is outside the scope of binding schemas which only
need to define how many interrupts and what are they. Ensuring parents
and cell sizes are correct is mostly done by dtc.

Hmm, I am not sure I understood your last comment. Can you point out the
specific usage?

All our K3 dts files have the interrupt-parent = <&gic500> defined at the
root-node, which is the default ARM GIC.

Let us know if we need to fix something in our dts files.

All our K3 gic500 nodes does have an 'interrupts' property.

Yes, this is understood. The OMAP Mailbox binding is reused between multiple SoC
families, some of which do not use an Interrupt Router in between.

So, whats the best way to enforce this in the specific schema? I have used the
common 'interrupts' property that applies to all SoCs, and enforced the
conditional 'interrupt-parent' only on relevant compatibles.

Suman

Perhaps an example. These are all equivalent:

parent {
  child1 {
    interrupt-parent = <&intc1>;
    interrupts = <1>;
  };
  child2 {
    interrupt-parent = <&intc2>;
    interrupts = <2>;
 };
};

parent {
  interrupt-parent = <&intc1>; // Or in the parent's parent...
  child1 {
    interrupts = <1>;
  };
  child2 {
    interrupt-parent = <&intc2>;
    interrupts = <2>;
  };
};

parent {
  interrupt-parent = <&intc2>;
  child1 {
    interrupt-parent = <&intc1>;
    interrupts = <1>;
  };
  child2 {
    interrupts = <2>;
  };
};

You could structure main_navss and child nodes in any of these 3 ways.

No! I'm just saying there are multiple correct ways to write the dts files.

I said the parent node, not the 'interrupt-parent'. In this case, the
parent is 'main_navss: bus@30800000'. It doesn't have 'interrupts' in
your case, so only the 2nd case is a possibility.

You can't. There is no way a schema can ensure you connect the right
interrupt controller just as it can't ensure you used the right
interrupt number and flags or used the right addresses. Well, you
could technically, but then at that point we could just generate the
dts from the schema.
