Subject: Does dt property name in a binding always need a vendor prefix?
Date: Wed, 21 Oct 2015 11:05:14 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5627A9AA.6040004@ti.com> (raw)

Experts,

I am looking for guidelines to name a DT property in a bindings. Do we 
need to add a vendor specific prefix always or is it needed only 
specific cases? I know the intent here is to avoid name space collision. 
But by name space I assume, within a specific a device binding. For 
example where device driver has a core framework that also uses DT 
properties, any low level device driver using the framework needs to add 
a vendor specific prefix to avoid collision. Is my understanding 
correct? So standalone device drivers doesn't have to use prefix? Right?
