I don't think we need to care about forward-compatibility. If one updates the device tree, it's expected that the kernel should be updated accordingly. The bindings should in my opinion document the current recommended device tree properties, drivers have to ensure backward compatibility with older DT, but the other way around shouldn't be required. > From what I can tell, we can add both safely, e.g. > > compatible = "fsl,imx6sx-lcdif", "fsl,imx28-lcdif" > > From how I read the description this now replaces "fsl,imx28-lcdif" with > "fsl,imx6sx-lcdif" for the devices supporting the additional features, > e.g.: > > --- a/arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6sl.dtsi > +++ b/arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6sl.dtsi > @@ -769,7 +769,7 @@ epdc: epdc@20f4000 { > }; > > lcdif: lcdif@20f8000 { > - compatible = "fsl,imx6sl-lcdif", "fsl,imx28-lcdif"; > + compatible = "fsl,imx6sl-lcdif", "fsl,imx6sx-lcdif"; > reg = <0x020f8000 0x4000>; > interrupts = <0 39 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>; > clocks = <&clks IMX6SL_CLK_LCDIF_PIX>, > > >> > + - fsl,imx6sx-lcdif > >> > + - items: > >> > + - enum: > >> > + - fsl,imx6sl-lcdif > >> > + - fsl,imx6sll-lcdif > >> > + - fsl,imx6ul-lcdif > >> > + - fsl,imx7d-lcdif > >> > + - fsl,imx8mq-lcdif > >> > + - const: fsl,imx6sx-lcdif > >> > > >> > reg: > >> > maxItems: 1 -- Regards, Laurent Pinchart

Additional compatible strings have been added in DT source for the i.MX6SL, i.MX6SLL, i.MX6UL and i.MX7D without updating the bindings. Most of the upstream DT sources use the fsl,imx28-lcdif compatible string, which mostly predates the realization that the LCDIF in the i.MX6 and newer SoCs have extra features compared to the i.MX28. Update the bindings to add the missing compatible strings, with the correct fallback values. This fails to validate some of the upstream DT sources. Instead of adding the incorrect compatible fallback to the binding, the sources should be updated separately.
