+ clk24: clk24 {Just "clock". Node names should be generic.Really? Almost every other device device tree uses unique clock node names.Yeah please just use generic node name "clock". FYI, we're still hurting because of this for the TI clock node names years after because the drivers got a chance to rely on the clock node name.. Using "clock" means your clock driver code won't get a chance to wrongly use the node name and you avoid similar issues.That means it'll end up like this (so that we can have more than one fixed-clock): clocks { #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; clk123: clock@0 { ... reg = <0> } clk456: clock@1 { ... reg = <1> } } Correct?Yeah, just don't use an imaginary dummy index for the reg. Use a real register offset from a clock controller instance base, and a register bit offset too if needed.No, there is no need for fake "clocks" node with fake addresses. If you have multiple clocks, the rules are the same as for other similar cases, e.g. leds: { clock-0 { ... }; clock-1 { .. }; soc@0 { }; } This should not generate any dtc W=1 warnings and work with dtschema (you need to check for both).
OK yeah so no need for the node name there after the "clock-" :) Sounds good to me. Regards, Tony
