Merge tag 'devicetree-for-3.14' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/robh/linux
Pull devicetree updates from Rob Herring:
- Add new documents with guidelines for DT binding stability and review
process. This is one of the outcomes of Kernel Summit DT discussions
- Remove a bunch of device_type usage which is only for OF and
deprecated with FDT
- Fix a long standing issue with compatible string match ordering
- Various minor binding documentation updates

Regarding stable bindings/ABI, we quote from the 2013 ARM mini-summit + summary document: + + "That still leaves the question of, what does a stable binding look + like? Certainly a stable binding means that a newer kernel will not + break on an older device tree, but that doesn't mean the binding is + frozen for all time. Grant said there are ways to change bindings that + don't result in breakage. For instance, if a new property is added, + then default to the previous behaviour if it is missing. If a binding + truly needs an incompatible change, then change the compatible string + at the same time. The driver can bind against both the old and the + new. These guidelines aren't new, but they desperately need to be + documented." + +II. General binding rules + + 1) Maintainers, don't let perfect be the enemy of good. Don't hold up a + binding because it isn't perfect. + + 2) Use specific compatible strings so that if we need to add a feature (DMA) + in the future, we can create a new compatible string. See I. + + 3) Bindings can be augmented, but the driver shouldn't break when given + the old binding. ie. add additional properties, but don't change the + meaning of an existing property. For drivers, default to the original + behaviour when a newly added property is missing. + + 4) Don't submit bindings for staging or unstable. That will be decided by + the devicetree maintainers *after* discussion on the mailinglist. + +III. Notes + + 1) This document is intended as a general familiarization with the process as + decided at the 2013 Kernel Summit. When in doubt, the current word of the + devicetree maintainers overrules this document. In that situation, a patch + updating this document would be appreciated. diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/gic.txt b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/gic.txt index 3dfb0c0384f..bae0d87a38b 100644 --- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/gic.txt +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/gic.txt @@ -11,6 +11,7 @@ have PPIs or SGIs.
