See the bottom of swap_case.c. You might be able to add a new one of those,
If you look at pci-controller2 in test.dts it has a device with a compatible string. You could try adding a second device with no compatible string.
And how does that test anything ?
You can test that your code actually attaches the DT node to the probed device. Without you code the test would fail. Wit it, it would pass.
Well it won't, because the sandbox swap_case.c requires the compatible. This all seems like a big hack to support virtual PCI devices.
The sandbox swap_case.c indeed supports dynamic driver binding, just like real PCI devices. Please check doc/driver-model/pci-info.txt (since you were modifying the same doc, I guess you missed that part ..)
Any specific part I am looking for ?
In the pci-info.txt, search for "The sandbox PCI drivers also support dynamic driver binding". The arch/sandbox/dts/test.dts already has one PCI controller and two swap_case devices setup for this testing. You can start from there.
