Hi,
I am trying to figure out the current policy to add trivial devices (I2C/SPI devices with at most one interrupt) to trivial-devices.yaml or include a dedicated file.
Apparently, bindings for the same sort of devices where "vdd-supply" is provided require their own file, and I wonder why there is no "vdd/supplied/whatever-trivial-devices.yaml".
Instead, files with trivial bindings + "vdd-supply: true" are added on a regular basis. That property is not saying anything specific about the device beyond that it needs a supply, which is very common. Is that intended and no more generic bindings are desired?
On the other hand, trivial-devices.yaml includes several devices that do require a single supply (e.g. several sensors), but it is not explicitly documented. Did the requirement of providing vdd-supply arise after those devices were added to trivial-devices? I think that some devices that were added to trivial-devices in the last months could have also had a vdd-supply property, so I am not sure about the rules to choose one way or another.
Thanks and best regards, Javier Carrasco
