Ivan Vecera April 7, 2025, 5:31 p.m. UTC
This adds DT bindings schema for DPLL (device phase-locked loop)
device and associated pin. The schema follows existing DPLL core API
and should be used to expose information that should be provided
by platform firmware.

The schema for DPLL device describe a DPLL chip that can contain
one or more DPLLs (channels) and platform can specify their types.
For now 'pps' and 'eec' types supported and these values are mapped
to DPLL core's enums.

The DPLL device can have optionally 'input-pins' and 'output-pins'
sub-nodes that contain pin sub-nodes.

These pin sub-nodes follows schema for dpll-pin and can contain
information about the particular pin.

The pin contains the following properties:
* reg - pin HW index (physical pin number of given type)
* label - string that is used as board label by DPLL core
* type - string that indicates pin type (mapped to DPLL core pin type)
* esync-control - boolean that indicates whether embeddded sync control
                  is allowed for this pin
* supported-frequencies - list of 64bit values that represents frequencies
                          that are allowed to be configured for the pin

Please do not use "This commit/patch/change", but imperative mood. See
longer explanation here:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.17.1/source/Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst#L95

A nit, subject: drop second/last, redundant "device tree bindings for".
The "dt-bindings" prefix is already stating that these are bindings.

What is core API in terms of Devicetree?

Describe entire hardware, not what is supported.

Describe the hardware, not the schema. We can read the contents of
patch. What we cannot read is the hardware and why you are making all
these choices.

Drop. Describe the hardware.

Filenames matching compatibles... unless this is common schema, but
commit description did not mention it.

Why do you need these cells?

Why this is not deducible from compatible?

So this is all for pinctrl? Or something else? Could not figure out from
commit msg. This does not help me either.

Why? I don't see these being used.

Use common property suffixes and drop ref.

Just one blank line


I bet that half of my questions could be answered with proper hardware
description which is missing in commit msg and binding description.
Instead your commit msg explains schema which makes no sense - I
mentioned, we can read the schema.

Ah, I see being used.

And this as well.
