Allwinner's D1, T113-S3 and R329 SoCs have a new pwm
controller witch is different from the previous pwm-sun4i.

The D1 and T113 are identical in terms of peripherals,
they differ only in the architecture of the CPU core, and
even share the majority of their DT. Because of that,
using the same compatible makes sense.
The R329 is a different SoC though, and should have
a different compatible string added, especially as there
is a difference in the number of channels.

D1 and T113s SoCs have one PWM controller with 8 channels.
R329 SoC has two PWM controllers in both power domains, one of
them has 9 channels (CPUX one) and the other has 6 (CPUS one).

Add a device tree binding for them.

Do we really need to be that strict?
If something compatible to D1 pops up in the future, just with a different
number of channels, we would need a new compatible string.
If we would leave this else branch out, we could just specify some
number differing from the default, and be good.
The number of channels really looks like a parameter to the IP, it's
modelled like this in the manual (PCR: 0x0100 + 0x0000 + N * 0x0020).

Cheers,
Andre

According to the bsp sdk and other mainline drivers for
R329 SoC, the sun50i prefix should be used instead the sun20i

Well, you would want to have a soc specific compatible anyway then,
right?

If it were compatible with the d1, then the "then:" branch would apply,
provided you used the fallback correctly. Although if the number of
channels were different, we'd likely end up with modifications here to
limit it to the correct values for each soc.

So the idea would be to add any new (specific) compatible string to that
list then, when we add them?
I guess this would work, but strictly speaking any current driver would
then only need to check this property for the R329 type? The Linux
driver proposed in the next patch *always* honours the
allwinner,pwm-channels property, which is IMHO the right way to implement
this. And that's why I think the binding should reflect that, and not
explicitly *forbid* the property for every one other than R329 (atm).

With the current Linux driver, a potential new SoC using:
	"allwinner,sun20i-d2-pwm", "allwinner,sun20i-d1-pwm";
	allwinner,pwm-channels = <6>;
would work without driver changes. A driver strictly written to this
binding here might not, though, as it would be free to ignore the
pwm-channels property.

Does that make sense? So to encourage future compatibility, can we drop
the "else" branch?

That's fine, because this just affects the bindings (and the DT), but
doesn't require any driver changes, which take months to trickle into
distributions, not to speak of LTS distros. A DT can be updated
independently.

Andre.

Oh true, I see what you mean now with the example you gave. I wouldn't
respin for this alone, since the else branch could be dropped when
another user showed up given the driver doesn't restrict things.
I'm okay with your suggestion though.

Cheer,
