phy-mode belongs in the phy node though. Not that you couldn't look in the phy node and see, but everyone likes all the properties they need nicely packaged up in their driver's node. > Anyway, if you define completely new property without vendor prefix, > that's a generic property, so you need to put it in some common schema > for all Display Controllers, not only Qualcomm. I'm trying to unsee what the driver is doing... Hard-coding the connector type and some instance indices. Uhhhh! I'm sure I'm to blame for rejecting those in DT. I've suggested connector nodes in the past. More generally, whatever is attached at the other end (as it could be a bridge rather than a connector) knows what mode is needed. It's simple negotiation. Each end presents what they support. You take the union of the list(s) and get the mode. If there's more than one, then the kernel or user gets to choose. Qualcomm is not the only one with this problem. Solve it for everyone... Rob
