How to put comments in device tree source files
Does the default c way of using comments work?
Yes, use /* comment */
.
ADDENDUM
I've also used C preprocessor #if 0
and #endif
directives to quickly disable (or enable) multiple lines of a node during testing.
I have not seen any conditional directives in DT files elsewhere, so such use may be frowned upon.
Here is what devicetree documentation says:
The format of the .dts "source" file is "C" like, supports C and C++ style comments.
So you can use both
/* multiline (C style)
comments */
and
// single line (C++ style) comments,
although the latter is not commonly used for some reason.
