14 title: An example schema annotated with jsonschema details

20 A more detailed multi-line description of the binding.
22 Details about the hardware device and any links to datasheets can go here.
24 Literal blocks are marked with the '|' at the beginning. The end is marked by
25 indentation less than the first line of the literal block. Lines also cannot
26 begin with a tab character.
29 # 'select' is a schema applied to a DT node to determine if this binding
30 # schema should be applied to the node. It is optional and by default the
31 # possible compatible strings are extracted and used to match.
33 # In this case, a 'false' schema will never match.
36 # A dictionary of DT properties for this binding schema
38 # More complicated schema can use oneOf (XOR), anyOf (OR), or allOf (AND)
39 # to handle different conditions.
40 # In this case, it's needed to handle a variable number of values as there
41 # isn't another way to express a constraint of the last string value.
42 # The boolean schema must be a list of schemas.
45 # items is a list of possible values for the property. The number of
46 # values is determined by the number of elements in the list.
47 # Order in lists is significant, order in dicts is not
48 # Must be one of the 1st enums followed by the 2nd enum
50 # Each element in items should be 'enum' or 'const'
57 # additionalItems being false is implied
58 # minItems/maxItems equal to 2 is implied
60 # 'const' is just a special case of an enum with a single possible value
61 - const: vendor,soc1-ip
64 # The core schema already checks that reg values are numbers, so device
65 # specific schema don't need to do those checks.
66 # The description of each element defines the order and implicitly defines
67 # the number of reg entries.
69 - description: core registers
70 - description: aux registers
71 # minItems/maxItems equal to 2 is implied
74 # The core schema enforces this is a string array
80 # Cases that have only a single entry just need to express that with maxItems
82 description: bus clock
89 # Either 1 or 2 interrupts can be present
93 - description: tx or combined interrupt
94 - description: rx interrupt
96 A variable number of interrupts warrants a description of what conditions
97 affect the number of interrupts. Otherwise, descriptions on standard
98 properties are not necessary.
101 # minItems must be specified here because the default would be 2
108 # Property names starting with '#' must be quoted
110 # A simple case where the value must always be '2'.
111 # The core schema handles that this must be a single integer.
114 interrupt-controller: true
115 # The core checks this is a boolean, so just have to list it here to be
116 # valid for this binding.
119 # The type is set in the core schema. Per device schema only need to set
120 # constraints on the possible values.
123 # The value that should be used if the property is not present

131 description: Vendor specific properties must have a description
132 # 'allOf' is the json-schema way of subclassing a schema. Here the base
133 # type schema is referenced and then additional constraints on the values
