Subject: [PATCH 0/5] convert ifc binding to yaml and drop "simple-bus"

Convert the ifc binding to yaml schema, in the mean while remove the
"simple-bus" compatible from the binding to make sure ifc device probes
before any of the child devices. Update the driver and existing DTSes
accordingly.

DTS changes should be merged together with the driver/binding changes
if DTS maintainer is ok with it or after the driver changes are applied.

Subject: [PATCH 2/5] memory: fsl_ifc: populate child devices without relying on simple-bus

After we update the binding to not use simple-bus compatible for the
controller, we need the driver to populate the child devices explicitly.

Subject: [PATCH 1/5] dt-bindings: memory: fsl: convert ifc binding to yaml schema

Convert the txt binding to yaml format and add description. Drop the
"simple-bus" compatible string from the example and not allowed by the
binding any more. This will help to enforce the correct probe order
between parent device and child devices, but will require the ifc driver
to probe the child devices to work properly.

updates from previous submission:
- Drop "simple-bus" from binding and only "fsl,ifc" as compatible
- Fix one identiation problem of "reg"
- Add type restriction to "little-endian" property

It's discouraged to merge DTS along with drivers (e.g. soc folks don't
accept such pull requests), so I propose to apply it in the next cycle.

Checkpatch should scream here. If it doesn't, maybe you work on some old
tree, which would also explain why you send it to my old address (not
the one from get_maintainers). Please use both checkpatch and
get_maintainers.

You basically relicense bindings from GPL-2.0 only to new license,
including GPL-3.0.

Nodes should be generic, so this looks like "memory-controller".

My bot found errors running 'make DT_CHECKER_FLAGS=-m dt_binding_check'
on your patch (DT_CHECKER_FLAGS is new in v5.13):

yamllint warnings/errors:

dtschema/dtc warnings/errors:
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/memory-controllers/fsl/ifc.example.dt.yaml:0:0: /example-0/soc/ifc@ffe1e000/flash@1,0: failed to match any schema with compatible: ['fsl,ifc-nand']

doc reference errors (make refcheckdocs):

See https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/1535102

This check can fail if there are any dependencies. The base for a patch
series is generally the most recent rc1.

If you already ran 'make dt_binding_check' and didn't see the above
error(s), then make sure 'yamllint' is installed and dt-schema is up to
date:

pip3 install dtschema --upgrade

Please check and re-submit.

Ok. But probably it is a little bit redundant as the upper level

It will not have a true or false value, but only present or not. Is
the boolean type taking care of this too?

These are defined in other bindings, but unfortunately they are not
converted to yaml format yet.

Yes, I know. I'm trying to turn on this check by default and adding
more cases here doesn't help. And often, when those other bindings get
converted, it's the example here that has errors and has to get fixed.
So either convert those bindings too or drop them from the example.

boolean is for a property which does not accept values and true/false
depends on its presence.

There's no need to make this conditional. of_platform_populate() is safe
to call multiple times. If that doesn't work, it's a bug.

From the dtschema/schemas/types.yaml file, flag type is defined as:
flag:
oneOf:
- type: boolean
const: true
- type: 'null'

It looks like more than the boolean type itself. But if the standard
boolean type is actually the same as the flag type we defined.
Shouldn't we remove the custom flag type then?

I think that it is probably an optimization to avoid re-populate the
bus for legacy device trees. But it might be cleaner to just
re-populate anyway?

They are equivalent, so either can be used.

Really what is needed here is a common schema for the endianness
properties defining the type once. Then any binding using a property
can just do 'little-endian: true'.
