At the current state the DW uMCTL2 DDRC DT-schema can't be used as the common one for all the IP-core-based devices due to the compatible string property constraining the list of the supported device names. In order to fix that we suggest to update the compatible property constraints so one would permit having any value aside with the generic device names. At the same time the generic DT-schema selection must be restricted to the denoted generic devices only so not to permit the generic fallback compatibles. Finally since the generic schema will be referenced from the vendor-specific DT-bindings with possibly non-standard properties defined it must permit having additional properties specified. Signed-off-by: Serge Semin <redacted> --- Note alternatively we could drop the "additionalProperties" keyword modification since currently there is no actual device available with the properties not listed in the generic DT-schema.quoted
Normally, this has required 2 schema files. However, I think you can do something like this: if: compatible: enum: - snps,ddrc-3.80a - snps,dw-umctl2-ddrc - xlnx,zynqmp-ddrc-2.40a then: unevaluatedProperties: false But please make sure that actually catches undocumented properties because unevaluateProperties under 'then' is not something I've tried.Oh, I wish this would work! Alas it doesn't. AFAIU the schemas under the "then" and "else" keywords are considered as separate schemas and are independently applied to the DT node. As soon as I added the construction suggested by you the schema evaluation started failing with error as none of the DT-node properties in the examples are valid: < ... /snps,dw-umctl2-ddrc.example.dtb: memory-controller@fd070000: < Unevaluated properties are not allowed ('compatible', 'reg', interrupts', 'interrupt-names', '$nodename' were unexpected) < ... /snps,dw-umctl2-ddrc.example.dtb: memory-controller@3d400000: < Unevaluated properties are not allowed ('compatible', 'reg', 'interrupts', 'interrupt-names', 'clocks', 'clock-names', '$nodename' were unexpected)Indeed. While unevaluatedProperties takes if/then/else into account, flipping it around doesn't.quoted
Any suggestion of how this could be fixed? Perhaps updating the dtschema tool anyhow? (I failed to find a quick-fix for it) Creating an additional separate schema with the common properties seems a bit overkill in this case. On the other hand is there a decent alternative?I don't think there is any other fix.quoted
What about accepting what I suggested in this patch? It does permit additional properties, but we won't need to have a separate schema with just several common properties.
No. You can't have it both ways. Either it is a common schema or a specific device schema.
Sigh... I see. Will fix it in the next patchset round. -Sergey
