Subject: [PATCH v3 3/7] dt-bindings: pinctrl: realtek: Improve 'realtek,duty-cycle' description
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2026 19:30:36 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260312113040.68189-4-eleanor.lin@realtek.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260312113040.68189-1-eleanor.lin@realtek.com>
The previous description was misleading because this hardware block is not
a PWM generator. It does not generate a signal with a specific frequency
and duty ratio.
Instead, it provides a fixed nanosecond-level adjustment to the rising/
falling edges of an existing signal.
The property name is kept as 'realtek,duty-cycle' rather than being
renamed to strictly preserve Device Tree ABI backward compatibility.
Signed-off-by: Yu-Chun Lin <eleanor.lin@realtek.com>

Changes in v3:
- Reverted property name change.
