Subject: [PATCH v3] dt-bindings: gpio: cavium,thunder-8890: Remove DT binding
Date: Wed, 8 Apr 2026 15:03:13 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260408093313.17025-1-i.shihao.999@gmail.com> (raw)
Remove the cavium,thunder-8890 GPIO binding as there are no active
use cases. A previous attempt was made to convert the binding to DT
schema, but since the binding is unused, remove it instead.
Signed-off-by: Shi Hao <i.shihao.999@gmail.com>

v3:
- Remove unused legacy text-based binding
- Drop previous DT schema conversion attempt
v2: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-devicetree/CAL_Jsq+0q8Wb==Xy_bi-j2D29BzZEN81tZr7VPGikL4AM5rbbQ@mail.gmail.com/T/#t
- Rename schema file based on compatible string
- Wrap commit message body as per kernel patch guidelines
- Use appropriate maintainer name and email address in DT schema.
- Change commit subject as per guidelines
- Fix $id path
Note:
* This patch is part of the GSoC2026 application process for device tree bindings conversions

-Cavium ThunderX/OCTEON-TX GPIO controller bindings
-
-Required Properties:
-- reg: The controller bus address.
-- gpio-controller: Marks the device node as a GPIO controller.
-- #gpio-cells: Must be 2.
- - First cell is the GPIO pin number relative to the controller.
- - Second cell is a standard generic flag bitfield as described in gpio.txt.
-
-Optional Properties:
-- compatible: "cavium,thunder-8890-gpio", unused as PCI driver binding is used.
-- interrupt-controller: Marks the device node as an interrupt controller.
-- #interrupt-cells: Must be present and have value of 2 if
- "interrupt-controller" is present.
- - First cell is the GPIO pin number relative to the controller.
- - Second cell is triggering flags as defined in interrupts.txt.
-
-Example:
-
-gpio_6_0: gpio@6,0 {
- compatible = "cavium,thunder-8890-gpio";
- reg = <0x3000 0 0 0 0>; /* DEVFN = 0x30 (6:0) */
- gpio-controller;
- #gpio-cells = <2>;
- interrupt-controller;
- #interrupt-cells = <2>;
-};
