Hi
Let's see how it looks:
https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot/blob/master/include/regmap.h
I first time ever see such thing like this:
struct regmap_range {
ulong start;
ulong size;
};
struct regmap {
enum regmap_endianness_t endianness;
int range_count;
struct regmap_range ranges[0];
};
How I can get access to variable ranges it if is 0 size? Who develops this
one and who reviewed:)
Anyway If I have pointer to regmap can I check what is start variable in
some other way?

Perhaps range_count gives the number of elements in the array, so you can just access r->ranges[i].start? -- Valentin _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

What other way do you need to check it? Why do you think the above code is incorrect? What do you think it should look like? thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

On 32 bit arch this type is u32 and on 64 bit arch it is 64. Nevertheless on each architecture I want my driver supports only 32 bits. I wonder if driver has to be such perfect and robust for everything user set in device tree or just information in kernel driver doc would be enough that user cannot set more than 32 bits.
