Platforms with existing numeric compatibles should continue to use them, so that the mess is somewhat containable
Sure Konrad. So for Pakala, I will change it back to qcom,sm8750-ctcu
Why do we need different compatibles for the others ? Are they not all compliant to the CTCU programming model ? i.e., sa8775p-ctcu ? or even, a generic,
qcom,coresight-ctcu
It's a huge anti-pattern with the DT maintainers, since a compatible is the only way to effectively differentiate different implementations (i.e. instances on different SoCs) of an IP block
Do you mean, same IP block integrated to different SoC ? Or are they different implementations altogether ? Why are these not applicable for other components ? (e.g., Tnoc, I-Tnoc, TPDA, TPDM etc ?)
This is important for the case where a DTB is shipped as part of firmware and can not be replaced - if some quirk needs to be applied retroactively, we can look for "qcom,glymur-ctcu" without affecting all the 50 other' users of the effectively-identical IP block
Fair enough, thank for the explanation.
Kind regards Suzuki
In this case, we're already reducing the impact on the driver, as that only looks for the single fallback compatible (qcom,sa8775p-ctcu)
