[PATCH v4 1/4] dt-bindings: arm: coresight: Add new compatible for static replicator
From: Leo Yan
Date: Sat Apr 06 2019 - 07:22:37 EST
CoreSight uses below bindings for replicator:
Static replicator, aka. non-configurable replicator:
"arm,coresight-replicator";
Dynamic replicator, aka. configurable replicator:
"arm,coresight-dynamic-replicator", "arm,primecell";
The compatible string "arm,coresight-replicator" is not an explicit
naming to express the replicator is 'static'. To unify the naming
convention, this patch introduces a new compatible string
"arm,coresight-static-replicator" for the static replicator; the
compatible string "arm,coresight-replicator" is still kept thus we
can support the old DT binding, but tag it as obsolete and suggest
to use the new compatible string.
As result CoreSight replicator have below bindings:
Static replicator:
"arm,coresight-replicator"; (obsolete)
"arm,coresight-static-replicator";
Dynamic replicator:
"arm,coresight-dynamic-replicator", "arm,primecell";
