TI is participating on the System DT evolution in general, but we don't have any plans to use DTS on our remote cores. We have our own auto-generated Chip-Support-Library (CSL) code that gets used on our firmwares. Also, most of the properties I defined are rather standard properties. I have posted a revised v3 [1] after the common ti,sci properties refactoring. This series is only waiting on the bindings. I am happy to change any ti, prefixed properties. I had one open question [2] that I am waiting for a response from you for identifying the R5F Core. regards Suman [1] https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11679331/ [2] https://patchwork.kernel.org/comment/23273441/ >>> >>> Though the system DT effort has not yet given any thought to what is the >>> view of one processor or instance to another instance (which is what >>> this binding is).
