Hi there,
When I was trying to create dts for my platform that need PCI
DeviceTree sub node to express interrupt of children devices under the
bridge, like this:
pci@1a000000 {
compatible = "loongson,ls7a-pci";
device_type = "pci";
#address-cells = <3>;
#size-cells = <2>;
#interrupt-cells = <2>;
msi-parent = <&msi>;
reg = <0 0x1a000000 0 0x02000000>,
<0xefe 0x00000000 0 0x20000000>;
ranges = <0x01000000 0x0 0x00020000 0x0 0x00020000 0x0 0x00020000>,
<0x02000000 0x0 0x40000000 0x0 0x40000000 0x0 0x40000000>;
ohci@4,0 {
compatible = "pci0014,7a24.0",
"pci0014,7a24",
"pciclass0c0310",
"pciclass0c03";
reg = <0x2000 0x0 0x0 0x0 0x0>;
interrupts = <49 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
interrupt-parent = <&pic>;
};
};
I got such checkpatch warnings:
WARNING: DT compatible string "pci0014,7a24.0" appears un-documented --
check ./Documentation/devicetree/bindings/ #206: FILE:
arch/mips/boot/dts/loongson/ls7a-pch.dtsi:38:
+ compatible = "pci0014,7a24.0",
WARNING: DT compatible string vendor "pci0014" appears un-documented --

+ compatible = "pci0014,7a24.0",
Just wonder if using such compatible string is allowed?
I've saw some some usages like mine in the tree, such as
arch/x86/platform/ce4100/falconfalls.dts, and
arch/mips/boot/dts/img/boston.dts.
If that's allowed, should we surpress these warnings in checkpatch
script?
Thanks.
