of/device: Nullify match table in of_match_device() for CONFIG_OF=n

2014-02-05T16:04:37Z

If the of_device_id table inside a device driver is protected by #ifdef CONFIG_OF, the driver still has to provide a dummy declaration of the table, or wrap it inside of_match_ptr(), when calling of_match_device() in the CONFIG_OF=n case, else the driver fails to compile with e.g. drivers/spi/spi-rspi.c: In function 'rspi_probe': drivers/spi/spi-rspi.c:1203:26: error: 'rspi_of_match' undeclared (first use in this function) drivers/spi/spi-rspi.c:1203:26: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in Make of_match_device() nullify the table pointer if CONFIG_OF=n to fix this.

platform: introduce OF style 'modalias' support for platform bus

Fix a problem that, the platform bus supports the OF style modalias in .uevent() call, but not in its device 'modalias' sysfs attribute. Signed-off-by: Zhang Rui Acked-by: Rob Herring Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

of/device: add helper to get cpu device node from logical cpu index

2013-08-21T09:29:51Z

Multiple drivers need to get the cpu device node from the cpu logical index and then access the of_node. This patch adds helper function to fetch the device node directly. Acked-by: Rob Herring Signed-off-by: Sudeep KarkadaNagesha

of: remove CONFIG_OF_DEVICE

2013-06-12T11:37:40Z

CONFIG_OF_DEVICE is always selected when CONFIG_OF is enabled, so remove it and simplify of_platform.h and of_device.h headers. This also fixes !OF compiles using of_platform_populate. Signed-off-by: Rob Herring Acked-by: Arnd Bergmann Tested-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt Signed-off-by: Grant Likely

Merge tag 'device-for-3.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux

2012-03-24T17:41:37Z

Pull avoidance patches from Paul Gortmaker: "Nearly every subsystem has some kind of header with a proto like: void foo(struct device *dev); and yet there is no reason for most of these guys to care about the sub fields within the device struct. This allows us to significantly reduce the scope of headers including headers. For this instance, a reduction of about 40% is achieved by replacing the include with the simple fact that the device is some kind of a struct. Unlike the much larger module.h cleanup, this one is simply two commits. One to fix the implicit users, and then one to delete the device.h includes from the linux/include/ dir wherever possible." * tag 'device-for-3.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux: device.h: audit and cleanup users in main include dir device.h: cleanup users outside of linux/include (C files)

device.h: audit and cleanup users in main include dir

2012-03-16T14:38:24Z

The header includes a lot of stuff, and it in turn gets a lot of use just for the basic "struct device" which appears so often. Clean up the users as follows: 1) For those headers only needing "struct device" as a pointer in fcn args, replace the include with exactly that. 2) For headers not really using anything from device.h, simply delete the include altogether. 3) For headers relying on getting device.h implicitly before being included themselves, now explicitly include device.h 4) For files in which doing #1 or #2 uncovers an implicit dependency on some other header, fix by explicitly adding the required header(s). Any C files that were implicitly relying on device.h to be present have already been dealt with in advance. Total removals from #1 and #2: 51. Total additions coming from #3: 9. Total other implicit dependencies from #4: 7. As of 3.3-rc1, there were 110, so a net removal of 42 gives about a 38% reduction in device.h presence in include/* Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

drivercore: Output common devicetree information in uevent

2012-02-01T21:26:30Z

When userspace needs to find a specific device, it currently isn't easy to resolve a /sys/devices/ path from a specific device tree node. Nor is it easy to obtain the compatible list for devices. This patch generalizes the code that inserts OF_* values into the uevent device attribute so that any device that is attached to an OF node will have that information exported to userspace. Without this patch only platform devices and some powerpc-specific busses have access to this data. The original function also creates a MODALIAS property for the compatible list, but that code has not been generalized into the common case because it has the potential to break module loading on a lot of bus types. Bus types are still responsible for their own MODALIAS properties. Boot tested on ARM and compile tested on PowerPC and SPARC.

drivercore: revert addition of of_match to struct device

2011-05-18T18:32:23Z

Commit b826291c, "drivercore/dt: add a match table pointer to struct device" added an of_match pointer to struct device to cache the of_match_table entry discovered at driver match time. This was unsafe because matching is not an atomic operation with probing a driver. If two or more drivers are attempted to be matched to a driver at the same time, then the cached matching entry pointer could get overwritten. This patch reverts the of_match cache pointer and reworks all users to call of_match_device() directly instead. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely

of: fix race when matching drivers

2011-05-18T16:19:36Z

If two drivers are probing devices at the same time, both will write their match table result to the dev->of_match cache at the same time. Only write the result if the device matches. In a thread titled "SBus devices sometimes detected, sometimes not", Meelis reported his SBus hme was not detected about 50% of the time. From the debug suggested by Grant it was obvious another driver matched some devices between the call to match the hme and the hme discovery failling.
