And the existing binding is wrong. It shows brcm,nand-bcm63138 can be backward compatible to either v7.0 and v7.1 controller. But in fact 63138 only use v7.0. I understand we had discussion before and chip specific name is the preferred method but the nand controller here is different and it has well defined and documented version control and our bcmbca SoCs integrate the controller exactly the same way so no chip specific compatible is needed. In the unlikely event that a future bcmbca SoC has a different implementation, we can always add new chip specific compatible. If you are concerned about ABI breakage on the 63138 compatible, I can add it back, although I find only a few 63138 and 4908 boards use it and I did keep it in the driver so they can still bind. >> Add brcm,nand-use-wp property to have an option for disabling this >> feature on broadband board design that does not use write protection. >> Add brcm,nand-ecc-use-strap to get ecc setting from board strap for >> broadband board designs because they do not specify ecc setting in dts >> but rather using the strap setting. >> >> Remove the requirement of interrupts and interrupt-names properties to >> reflect the driver code. >> >> This patch also includes a few minor fixes to the BCM63xx compatibles >> and add myself to the list of maintainers. >> >> Signed-off-by: William Zhang >> --- >> >> .../bindings/mtd/brcm,brcmnand.yaml | 64 +++++++++++++------ >> 1 file changed, 43 insertions(+), 21 deletions(-) >> >> diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/brcm,brcmnand.yaml b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/brcm,brcmnand.yaml >> index 1571024aa119..1fe1c166a9db 100644 >> --- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/brcm,brcmnand.yaml >> +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/brcm,brcmnand.yaml >> @@ -9,6 +9,7 @@ title: Broadcom STB NAND Controller >> maintainers: >> - Brian Norris >> - Kamal Dasu >> + - William Zhang >> >> description: | >> The Broadcom Set-Top Box NAND controller supports low-level access to raw NAND >> @@ -18,9 +19,10 @@ description: | >> supports basic PROGRAM and READ functions, among other features. >> >> This controller was originally designed for STB SoCs (BCM7xxx) but is now >> - available on a variety of Broadcom SoCs, including some BCM3xxx, BCM63xx, and >> - iProc/Cygnus.

If you looks arch/mips/boot/dts/brcm/bcm6328.dtsi, bcm6368.dtsi, bcm63268.dtsi and bcm6362.dtsi, their compatible list is correct but the yaml was not updated. > Rob >
