This version of the PWM h/w is not compatible with any of the existing 
chips? If it is, it should have a fallback compatible.

No, it is unique because it comes with just 2 PWM channels.
Otherwise the driver behaves just like for MT8183 (4 channels) or
MT8365 (3 channels) which also got distinct compatible strings.

Then something would be here compatible. E.g. If you bound MT8183 with
mt7986-pwm compatible, would you get working device with two channels?

If so, they are compatible.

Yes, but I'd see another 2 channels which do not work, accessing them
may even cause problems (I haven't tried that) as it means accessing
an undocumented memory range of the SoC which we in general we
shouldn't be messing around with.

Also note that this case is the same as MT8183 vs. MT8365, they got
distinct compatible strings and also for those two the only difference
is the number of channels.

By that definition you should remove the additional compatible for
MT8365 or rather, it should have been rejected for the same argument.

I'm talking about
commit fe00faee8060402a3d85aed95775e16838a6dad2

This is a pattern spreading in several Mediatek bindings and we already
commented on new patches. I don't know why people working on Mediatek do
not mark pieces compatible.

So we were talking about using the MT8183 compatible for MT7986 SoC, as
the PWM units are identical apart from the number of channels they
offer:

MT7986 got 2 PWM channels. The MMIO registers used for those two
channels start at offsets 0x10 (pwm0) and 0x50 (pwm1)

MT8183 got 4 PWM channels. The MMIO registers used for those four
channels start of offsets 0x10 (pwm0), 0x50 (pwm1), 0x90 (pwm2) and
0xd0 (pwm3).

Hence, when using the MT8183 compatible with MT7986, the driver will
access offsets 0x90 and 0xd0 in case the users enables the (bogus)
outputs pwm2 and pwm3. These offsets, however, are not mentioned in the
datasheet, so it has to be considered that writing things to these
undocumented offsets could cause unknown behavior.

I hope it's more clear now what I mean.

My guess is that it's for this very reason:
To correctly communicate the capabilities (in this case: number of
channels) to the driver and not have bogus pwmX show up in the OS
which then causes undocumented MMIO register access in case anyone
tries to actually use them.

Others will have to answer that for you.

To me this looks a bit like a structural shortcoming of the PWM controller
bindings: if there was a way to tell the driver "hey, this is like MT8183,
but it got only two channels" that would solve it nicely.
This could either be done using child-nodes for each PWM channel or by
simply adding a 'nr-pwms' property.

MT7986 got 2 PWM channels. The MMIO registers used for those two

But even your case is not correct. On MT7986 the device would still have
2 channels, how the heck he would get 4? Driver binds to ,t7986-pwm
compatible, which defines 2 channels.

No, that's not correct reason. There would be no wrong MMIO access and
capabilities would be still correctly communicated.

No, it's rather someone did not think about Devicetree compatibles or
did not care to design the Mediatek bindings and just copy-paste
existing pattern...

But even your case is not correct. On MT7986 the device would still have
2 channels, how the heck he would get 4? Driver binds to ,t7986-pwm
compatible, which defines 2 channels.

No, that's not correct reason. There would be no wrong MMIO access and
capabilities would be still correctly communicated.

No, it's rather someone did not think about Devicetree compatibles or
did not care to design the Mediatek bindings and just copy-paste
existing pattern...

Ok, that was not clear to me. I understood the other way around, to use
`mediatek,mt8183-pwm` on MT7986 (and not even introduce an additional
compatible for MT7986 in the driver, but only list it as compatibly with
existing MT8183 in binding docs).

So: The to-be newly introduced `mediatek,mt7986-pwm` should work on
MT8183 as well, but in that case only two of the four channels would be
accessible.

If we do introduce that new compatible, then yes.
I understood you were suggesting to use `mediatek,mt8183` on MT7986
hardware which would have resulted in such behavior.

So what exactly do you mean by "made compatible"?
In the driver? In DTS files? In DT-bindings?

So in that case, maybe those existing patterns should be cleaned up?
Can you suggest a change? (even informal, I can wrap it up as patch).

To me, code is almost always better documentation than actual
documentation, which is usually time consuming to read, hard to
understand (compared to reading code or existing examples), and it's
commonly full of errors. I hardly waste my time with it, if there is
code or existing examples, I will always prefer do read and understand
that.

You need dedicated compatible (which will be used by the driver) because
these are two different devices.

No one here argued against introducing new compatible. The question was
why these devices are not compatible with each other? Why new compatible
is not made a part of family of existing compatibles.

I review bindings, so by "devices being made compatible" I meant exactly
what Devicetree specification asks:

"The property value consists of a concatenated list of null terminated
strings, from most specific to most general. They allow a device to
express its compatibility with a family of similar devices, potentially
allowing a single device driver to match against several devices."

Which means that devices share some common characteristics, like
programming model, and differ by some other pieces. For device drivers,
usually this also means that a device can use any of the compatibles to
bind and function properly, within the limits/features of that compatible.

Someone knowing the devices should reorganize compatibles to come up
with family models, e.g. expressed in DT schema like:

oneOf:
 - const: mediatek,mt7986-pwm
 - items:
     - enum:
         - mediatek,mt8183-pwm
     - const: mediatek,mt7986-pwm

and so on.

Example schema expresses it:

You need dedicated compatible (which will be used by the driver) because
these are two different devices.

No one here argued against introducing new compatible. The question was
why these devices are not compatible with each other? Why new compatible
is not made a part of family of existing compatibles.

I review bindings, so by "devices being made compatible" I meant exactly
what Devicetree specification asks:

"The property value consists of a concatenated list of null terminated
strings, from most specific to most general. They allow a device to
express its compatibility with a family of similar devices, potentially
allowing a single device driver to match against several devices."

Which means that devices share some common characteristics, like
programming model, and differ by some other pieces. For device drivers,
usually this also means that a device can use any of the compatibles to
bind and function properly, within the limits/features of that compatible.

Someone knowing the devices should reorganize compatibles to come up
with family models, e.g. expressed in DT schema like:

oneOf:
 - const: mediatek,mt7986-pwm
 - items:
     - enum:
         - mediatek,mt8183-pwm
     - const: mediatek,mt7986-pwm

and so on.

Example schema expresses it:

[PATCH v2] dt-bindings: pwm: mediatek: Add compatible for MT7986

[Daniel Golle]

Add new compatible string for MT7986 PWM and list compatible units for
existing entries. Also make sure the number of pwm1-X clocks is listed
for all supported units.

I have no concerns. However converting that to yaml would be a nice
thing. Also I didn't notice an effort to adapt the dts files
accordingly. But that might be because I wasn't on Cc: for these (or I
might have missed them despite the Cc: :-)

I'll mark this patch as handled-elsewhere in the PWM patchwork.

Best regards
Uwe

I have no concerns. However converting that to yaml would be a nice
thing. Also I didn't notice an effort to adapt the dts files
accordingly. But that might be because I wasn't on Cc: for these (or I
might have missed them despite the Cc: :-)

I'll mark this patch as handled-elsewhere in the PWM patchwork.

Best regards
Uwe

Please use scripts/get_maintainers.pl to get a list of necessary people
and lists to CC.  It might happen, that command when run on an older
kernel, gives you outdated entries.  Therefore please be sure you base
your patches on recent Linux kernel.

You managed to miss all folks from DT :/

Best regards,
