This schema is still a no-op because of this false.

What is the point of defining one property if it is not placed anywhere?
Every device node can have it? Seems wrong...

You need to come with proper schema. Lack of an example is another thing
- this cannot be even validated by the tools.

Thank you for the feedback. Will update the schema file on next round
submission.

Hi, Krzysztof, I'm working to address your comments and have some questions.
Hope to get help/guide from your side.

For the select, the writing-schema.rst describes it as "A json-schema used to
match nodes for applying the schema" but I'm a bit confused. In my case, should
it be "cpus" node? Is there any code/tools that uses this property, so that I
can have a better understanding?

For your "validated by the tools", can you please share the tools you used to
validate the schema? I used "make dt_binding_check" per the
submitting-patches.rst but I think your comments is about another tool.

Sorry for the bothering. I read the DT spec and the
Documentation/devicetree/bindings documents and still not sure.

Than you

Usually we expect matching by compatible, but it does not seem suitable
here because it is not related to any specific device, right? That is
the problem with all this DT-reuse-for-virtual-stuff work. It just does
not follow usual expectations and guidelines - you do not describe a device.

You can still match by nodes. See all top-level bindings.

See writing-schema document.

Thank you for the reply.

I'm a bit confused on your "do not describe a device".
I think VM is also a device, it's just a virtual device, but I don't see much
difference of the virtual and physical device from DT point of view, possibly I
missed some point.

After checking the code at
https://github.com/devicetree-org/dt-schema/blob/main/dtschema/validator.py,
seems the 'select' is translated to 'if'/'then'.

Do you have any example of "top-level bindings"? I tried to check binding for
enable-methods like arm/cpu-enable-method/nuvoton,npcm750-smp or
cpu/idle-states.yaml, but they are either not schema file, or quite different.

I have been struggling on this device binding document for a while. I
reconsidered what this binding is for. This binding means, if the cpus node has
"enable-method" as "acpi-wakeup-mailbox", then the device should have property
"wakeup-mailbox-addr" with uint64 type.

In that case, I'm considering to set the "select" to be true so that it will
apply to any potential device, and add if/then keyword to check the
enable-method. But seems it does not work and I'm still trying to figure out the
reason (I'm new to the json/json schema and is still learning).

I received followed error:
cpus: '#address-cells', '#size-cells', 'cpu@0', 'enable-method' do not match any of the regexes: 'pinctrl-[0-9]+'
        from schema $id: http://devicetree.org/schemas/x86/wakeup.yaml#
cpu@0: 'device_type', 'reg' do not match any of the regexes: 'pinctrl-[0-9]+'
        from schema $id: http://devicetree.org/schemas/x86/wakeup.yaml#

With the followed yaml file (I delete some description).

Yes, I figured out in the end that the validate tools means the dt-schema tools.

One thing just come to my mind. The
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/x86/wakeup.yaml only adds one property,
wakeup-mailbox-addr, to the cpus node, and it does not specify any new object.
Per my understanding, the json schema file normally specifies a new object.
Is my change a supported scenario in current Documentation/devicetree?

I checked similar scenario like arm/cpu-enable-method/nuvoton and
npcm750-smp/cpu-enable-method/al,alpine-smp, they don't present as a json
schema file. Wonder if it's because the same reason.

VM is purely a software construct, so it is not a device. But regardless
of terminology, you did not describe here VM or its part, either.

Most of board schemas, so for example in arm directory.

enable-method is part of CPUs, so you probably should match the CPUs...
I am not sure, I don't have the big picture here.

Maybe if companies want to push more of bindings for purely virtual
systems, then they should first get involved more, instead of relying on
us. Provide reviews for your virtual stuff, provide guidance. There is
resistance in accepting bindings for such cases for a reason - I don't
even know what exactly is this and judging/reviewing based on my
practices will no be accurate.

I think that's not related. You can add properties per specific devices,
but (as I said) you do not have a compatible. Compatible represents a
specific device. You do not have it. Look at the cpus.yaml schema.

Rather no one cares about that hardware.

+  The x86 mailbox wakeup mechanism defines a mechanism to let the bootstrap
+  processor (BSP) to wake up application processors (APs) through a wakeup
+  mailbox.
+
+  The "wakeup-mailbox-addr" property specifies the wakeup mailbox address. The
+  wakeup mailbox is a 4K-aligned 4K-size memory block allocated in the reserved

+
+  The wakeup mailbox structure is defined as follows.

+  the target AP's APIC_ID, and write 1 to the command field. After receiving the
+  wakeup command, the target AP will jump to the wakeup routine.
+
+  For each AP, the mailbox can be used only once for the wakeup command. After
