Hi,
As I am thinking about conformance testing for SystemReady and Trusted
Substrate, I'd like to get your feedback on the following.
There are 7 values in the reg entry of interrupt-controller@210000 from the
below DT. This corresponds to 3 valid {address,size} plus a single
{address}.
The spec does not state anything on incomplete {address,size} pairs... I
understand that #size-cell can be zero, indicating that the reg will
contain only {address} "tuples" and not {address,size} tuples. But that
should be for all reg tuples, not just one.
In this case, I assume the driver will get what it wants, but from a
certification perspective:
- I would reject this DT.
- I would document proper tuple forming in the spec (no incomplete pairs)
Last, I would also add some "notes" in the spec about where to get the
"#*-cells" for the reg property of a device. If you think "hardware" it is
obvious that the information must be retrieved from the immediate parent
and "inheritance" does not make sense. But as I Googled the topic, I have
seen a number of discussions and wrong patches around that. So I would add
a non normative text (properly identified as such) to describe that in the
spec.
Thank you for your help
Cheers
