* [PATCH 3/3 v2] of/device: Register children with a compatible value in of_platform_bus_probe() @ 2010-12-10 10:52 Lan Chunhe 2010-12-30 6:50 ` Grant Likely 0 siblings, 1 reply; 6+ messages in thread From: Lan Chunhe @ 2010-12-10 10:52 UTC (permalink / raw) To: linuxppc-dev; +Cc: Lan Chunhe, akpm, dougthompson Currently, of_platform_bus_probe() completely skips nodes which do not explicitly match the 'matches' table passed in. Or, if the root node matches, then it registers all the children unconditionally. However, there are situations, such as registering devices from the root node, when it is desirable to register child nodes, but only if they actually represent devices. For example, the root node may contain both a local bus and a PCI device, but it also contains the chosen, aliases and cpus nodes which don't represent real devices. This patch changes of_platform_bus_probe() to register all nodes at the top level if they either match the matches table (the current behaviour), or if they have a 'compatible' value (indicating it represents a device).

You need to be very careful about stuff like this. Posting a patch without attribution of the original author and has the original signed-off-by lines stripped off is an absolute no-no. In literary circles this would be called plagiarism. I don't think you did it intentionally, but proper attribution is a must, particularly because there are copyright issues involved. As for this particular patch, I'm not particularly happy with it and I was planning to rewrite it. It is an inelegant solution and I think the registration of devices from the device tree can be made simpler instead of more complex like in this patch. g. > > Thanks. > -Lan > > >>--- > >> drivers/of/platform.c | 28 +++++++++++++++++++++++----- > >> 1 files changed, 23 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) > >> > >>diff --git a/drivers/of/platform.c b/drivers/of/platform.c > >>index 5b4a07f..02755ab 100644 > >>--- a/drivers/of/platform.c > >>+++ b/drivers/of/platform.c > >>@@ -714,6 +714,8 @@ int of_platform_bus_probe(struct device_node *root, > >> struct device_node *child; > >> struct platform_device *dev; > >> int rc = 0; > >>+ const void *compat; > >>+ const struct of_device_id *match; > >> > >> if (WARN_ON(!matches || matches == OF_NO_DEEP_PROBE)) > >> return -EINVAL; > >>@@ -741,16 +743,32 @@ int of_platform_bus_probe(struct > >>device_node *root, > >> rc = of_platform_bus_create(root, matches, &dev->dev); > >> goto bail; > >> } > >>+ > >>+ /* > >>+ * Register each child node if either: > >>+ * a) it has a 'compatible' value indicating they are a device, or > >>+ * b) it is specified by the 'matches' table (by name or device_type) > >>+ * If a node is specified in the matches table, then all its children > >>+ * also get registered. > >>+ */ > >> for_each_child_of_node(root, child) { > >>- if (!of_match_node(matches, child)) > >>+ compat = of_get_property(child, "compatible", NULL); > >>+ match = of_match_node(matches, child); > >>+ if (!compat && !match) > >> continue; > >> > >>- pr_debug(" match: %s\n", child->full_name); > >>+ pr_debug(" register device: %s\n", child->full_name); > >> dev = of_platform_device_create(child, NULL, parent); > >>- if (dev == NULL) > >>+ if (!dev) { > >> rc = -ENOMEM; > >>- else > >>- rc = of_platform_bus_create(child, matches, &dev->dev); > >>+ of_node_put(child); > >>+ break; > >>+ } > >>+ if (!match) > >>+ continue; > >>+ > >>+ pr_debug(" register children of: %s\n", child->full_name); > >>+ rc = of_platform_bus_create(child, matches, &dev->dev); > >> if (rc) { > >> of_node_put(child); > >> break; > >>-- > >>1.5.4.5 > >> > >> > > > > ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread

I'm thinking about deprecating the whole recursive device registration entirely and instead making child device registration always the responsibility of a device driver. That would mean each bus node would bind to a simple device driver that registers the child platform devices in the .probe() hook. g. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 6+ messages in thread
