Pull device properties framework updates from Rafael Wysocki: "These add helpers for counting items in a property array and extend the "software nodes" support to be more convenient for representing device properties supplied by drivers and make the intel_cht_int33fe driver use that. Specifics: - Add helpers to count items in a property array (Andy Shevchenko). - Extend "software nodes" support to be more convenient for representing device properties supplied by drivers (Heikki Krogerus). - Add device_find_child_by_name() helper to the driver core (Heikki Krogerus). - Extend device connection code to also look for references provided via fwnode pointers (Heikki Krogerus). - Start to register proper struct device objects for USB Type-C muxes and orientation switches (Heikki Krogerus). - Update the intel_cht_int33fe driver to describe devices in a more general way with the help of "software nodes" (Heikki Krogerus)" * tag 'devprop-5.3-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: device property: Add helpers to count items in an array platform/x86: intel_cht_int33fe: Replacing the old connections with references platform/x86: intel_cht_int33fe: Supply fwnodes for the external dependencies platform/x86: intel_cht_int33fe: Provide fwnode for the USB connector platform/x86: intel_cht_int33fe: Provide software nodes for the devices platform/x86: intel_cht_int33fe: Remove unused fusb302 device property platform/x86: intel_cht_int33fe: Register max17047 in its own function usb: typec: Registering real device entries for the muxes device connection: Find connections also by checking the references device property: Introduce fwnode_find_reference() ACPI / property: Don't limit named child node matching to data nodes driver core: Add helper device_find_child_by_name() software node: Add software_node_get_reference_args() software node: Use kobject name when finding child nodes by name software node: Add support for static node descriptors software node: Simplify software_node_release() function software node: Allow node creation without properties

device property: Add helpers to count items in an array

2019-06-13T20:41:59Z

The usual pattern to allocate the necessary space for an array of properties is to count them first by calling: count = device_property_read_uXX_array(dev, propname, NULL, 0); if (count < 0) return count; Introduce helpers device_property_count_uXX() to count items by supplying hard coded last two parameters to device_property_readXX_array().

device property: Introduce fwnode_find_reference()

2019-06-03T08:55:38Z

In most cases the references that the drivers look for don't have any arguments. This introduces a wrapper function for fwnode_property_get_reference_args() that looks for references by using only the name and index.

software node: Add support for static node descriptors

2019-06-03T08:55:38Z

Until now the software nodes could only be created dynamically with fwnode_create_software_node() function. This introduces struct software_node data structure, which makes it possible to describe the software nodes also statically. The statically described software nodes can be registered with a new function fwnode_register_software_node(). This also adds a helper fwnode_register_software_nodes() which makes it possible to register an array of struct software_nodes, i.e. multiple nodes at the same time. There is no difference between statically described and dynamically allocated software nodes. Even the registration does not differ, except that during node creation the device properties are only copied if the node is created dynamically. With statically described nodes, the property entries in the descriptor (struct software_node) are assigned directly to the new software node that is being created without any copies.

device property: Add fwnode_graph_get_endpoint_by_id()

2019-04-18T14:44:05Z

fwnode_graph_get_endpoint_by_id() is intended for obtaining local endpoints by a given local port. fwnode_graph_get_endpoint_by_id() is slightly different from its OF counterpart, of_graph_get_endpoint_by_regs(): instead of using -1 as a value to indicate that a port or an endpoint number does not matter, it uses flags to look for equal or greater endpoint. The port number is always fixed. It also returns only remote endpoints that belong to an available device, a behaviour that can be turned off with a flag.

device property: Fix the length used in PROPERTY_ENTRY_STRING()

2019-01-29T09:52:40Z

With string type property entries we need to use sizeof(const char *) instead of the number of characters as the length of the entry. If the string was shorter then sizeof(const char *), attempts to read it would have failed with -EOVERFLOW. The problem has been hidden because all build-in string properties have had a string longer then 8 characters until now.

drivers: base: Introducing software nodes to the firmware node framework

2018-11-26T17:19:11Z

Software node is a new struct fwnode_handle type that can be used to describe devices in kernel (software). It is meant to complement fwnodes representing real firmware nodes when they are incomplete (for example missing device properties) and to supply the primary fwnode when the firmware lacks hardware description for a device completely. The software node type is really meant to replace the currently used "property_set" struct fwnode_handle type. The handling of struct property_set is glued to the generic device property handling code, and it is not possible to create a struct property_set independently from the device that it is bind to. struct property_set is only created when device properties are added to already initialized struct device, and control of it is only possible from the generic property handling code. Software nodes are instead designed to be created independently from the device entries (struct device). It makes them much more flexible, as then the device meant to be bind to the node can be created at a later time, and from another location. It is also possible to bind multiple devices to a single software node if needed. The software node implementation also includes support for node hierarchy, which was the main motivation for this commit. The node hierarchy was something that was requested for the struct property_set, but it did not seem reasonable to try to extend the property_set support for that purpose. struct property_set was really meant only for device property handling like the name suggests. Support for struct property_set is not yet removed in this commit, but it will be in the following one.
