Hello Krzysztof, Nancy,

Since this series has reached v29, can we please reach an agreement
on the bindings
to use here, so that we can get this finally upstreamed?

I will put some examples to try to get this issue resolved.

### Example 1: Constrain the number of GCE entries to *seven* array
elements (7x4!)

mediatek,gce-client-reg:
$ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/phandle-array
maxItems: 1
description: The register of display function block to be set
by gce.
There are 4 arguments in this property, gce node, subsys id,
offset and
register size. The subsys id is defined in the gce header of
each chips
include/dt-bindings/gce/<chip>-gce.h, mapping to the
register of display
function block.
items:
minItems: 28
maxItems: 28
items: <----- this block doesn't seem to
get checked :\
- description: phandle of GCE
- description: GCE subsys id
- description: register offset
- description: register size

This is what we would like to have but it requires exception in
dtschema. Thus:



### Example 2: Don't care about constraining the number of
arguments

mediatek,gce-client-reg:
$ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/phandle-array
maxItems: 1
description: The register of display function block to be set
by gce.
There are 4 arguments in this property, gce node, subsys id,
offset and
register size. The subsys id is defined in the gce header of
each chips
include/dt-bindings/gce/<chip>-gce.h, mapping to the
register of display
function block.

use this.

Best regards,
Krzysztof


Hi Krzysztof, Angelo,

Thanks for the comment.
The Example 2 can pass dt_binding_check.

But the example in the binding has 7 items [1] and dts [2]. Does the
"maxItems: 1" affect any other schema or dts check?

Ah, then it should be maxItems: 7, not 1.


Keep in mind for your v30:

maxItems: 7 will pass - but only if minItems is *not* 7 :-)

-> (so, do not declare minItems, as default is 1) <-

Regards,
Angelo

Best regards,
Krzysztof
