Thank you for your feedback, Geert.

GPIO controller uses clk_apb1_bus under dom0_sys.  I believe the device
tree node would use something like this:

  clocks = <&clkgen JH7100_CLK_APB1>;

I see the sifive-gpio.yaml has:

  clocks:
    maxItems: 1

Would that be the correct way to do it for the starfive gpio yaml?


The reset for GPIO controller is presetn under dom_sys.  Do you think
know you know an example that has reset in the YAML?  Is there some code
that would actually make use of that information?

Do you think I should add 'clocks' to 'required:'?

I would add:

  clocks = <&clkgen JH7100_CLK_APB1>;

But I am not sure how reset would work?
