[PATCH] of: Add vendor 2nd prefix for Asahi Kasei Corp

[Kuninori Morimoto]

From: Kuninori Morimoto <kuninori.morimoto.gx@renesas.com>

Current vendor-prefixes.txt already has
"ak" prefix for Asahi Kasei Corp by
ae8c4209af2cec065fef15d200a42a04130799f7
(of: Add vendor prefix for Asahi Kasei Corp.)

It went through the appropriate review process,
and is already in use.
But, almost all Asahi Kasei chip driver is
using "asahi-kasei" prefix today.

Due to ABIness, this patch adds
"asahi-kasei" to vendor-prefixes.txt.
checkpatch.pl will report WARNING without this patch.
(DT compatible string vendor "asahi-kasei" appears un-documented)

OTOH, Asahi Kasei is usually referred as "AKM",
but this patch doesn't care about it.
Because no DT is using it today.

I'm fine with this patch, but just wanted to comment on this part of the
commit description:

What is in the drivers isn't relevant; that's not what drives the ABI.
The issue is that some *DTs* use ak and some use asahi-kasei, so both
those need to be supported.

That said, we should document which one of the two prefixes is
preferred, and use this for any new AK binding.

It would also be nice to ensure the preferred prefix is in all drivers'
of_match_tables, and remove the deprecated prefix from all drivers'
of_match_tables *except* where there's already a DT file that references
the deprecated vendor prefix.

If we're adding a new string, we should figure out what's happening with
the old one. We want some consistency here.

>From a quick grep, it looks like the only use of "ak" is "ak,ak8975" in
arch/arm/boot/dts/tegra20-seaboard.dts. There are instances of
"asahi-kasei,ak8975" in other dts files.

Olof added "asahi-kasei,ak8975" to the ak8975 driver in February 2012
(see 54461c3067b2), and the "asahi-kasei" prefix is currently far more
common. This was only documented in May 2013 (see f4b7f751c6fd).

Stephen added the "ak" vendor-refix was added later in November 2012
(see ae8c4209af2c), and the only instance seems to work due to the i2c
subsystem doing something dehind the scenes with the compatible string.
So I think we made a mistake there.

Given all that, I think we should get rid of the "ak" prefix entirely,
fix up the seaboard dts, and leave the legacy matching for "ak,ak8975"
up to the i2c framework. However, that would imply deleting from
vendor-prefixes.txt (if we want people to be warned on use of "ak"), and
that's not a good precedent to set.

Thoughts?

Mark.

Instead of deleting, we can deprecate, like was done for powervr:

powervr PowerVR (deprecated, use img)

Still missing is an update for checkpatch to warn when a deprecated
vendor prefix is used.

Ah. I tried to see if we had any deprecated bindings, but I somehow
failed to search correctly and missed powervr.

Marking it deprecated and warning with checkpatch is certainly
preferable.

I guess removing "ak" line from vendor-prefixes.txt is very enough
for warn for a deprecated vendor prefix on checkpatch ?

  ...
- ak	Asahi Kasei Corp.
  ...
+ asahi-kasei	Asahi Kasei Corp.

Huh?  No idea what you mean.
What are you suggesting about checkpatch?

Hi Joe,

I think that what Morimoto-san wanted to say was something like this:

  I guess that removing the "ak" line from vendor-prefixes.txt would
  be sufficient to cause checkpatch to generate a warning about
  using the deprecated "ak" vendor prefix. Is that a good approach?

It'd be a bit nicer to be able to leave it there with a note saying it
was legacy (if only so people don't try to add it back) but I don't mind
too much.

[PATCH v3] of: replace Asahi Kasei Corp venter prefix

[Kuninori Morimoto]

From: Kuninori Morimoto <kuninori.morimoto.gx@renesas.com>

Current vendor-prefixes.txt already has
"ak" prefix for Asahi Kasei Corp by
ae8c4209af2cec065fef15d200a42a04130799f7
(of: Add vendor prefix for Asahi Kasei Corp.)

It went through the appropriate review process.
But, almost all Asahi Kasei chip drivers are
using "asahi-kasei" prefix today.
(arch/arm/boot/dts/tegra20-seaboard.dts only is
using "ak,ak8975", but there are instances of
"asahi-kasei,ak8975" in other dts files.
And drivers/iio/magnetometer/ak8975.c
doesn't support "ak,ak8975")
So, we made a mistake there.

In addition, checkpatch.pl reports WARNING
if it is using "asahi-kasei" prerfix in DT file.
(DT compatible string vendor "asahi-kasei" appears un-documented)

Marking it deprecated and warning with checkpatch
is certainly preferable.
So, this patch replace "ak" to "asahi-kasei" in
vendor-prefixes.txt. (and fixup tegra20-seaboard)

OTOH, Asahi Kasei is usually referred to as "AKM",
but this patch doesn't care about it.
Because no DT is using that today.

Mmm. So does this mean this device was never probed because the driver 
did not recognize its compatible property? I cannot find "ak,ak8975" 
anywhere else in the kernel.

If so,

No, the i2c bus behaves in a special way by matching the "ak8975"
i2c driver name with any "*,ak8975" DT compatible string. Both
of the above will work with existing kernels.

I2C (like SPI) has a fallback in case the OF table yields no match. The
of_modalias_node() that it uses extracts the module name from the device
tree node's compatible string by skipping the vendor prefix. The
resulting string is then set as the I2C client's name and causes the I2C
standard ID matching to succeed (see of_i2c_register_devices() for how
this is done in detail).

Technically this is breaking backwards-compatibility from a DT
perspective, but I think it's safe to do because the Linux kernel has a
way of dealing with this and other operating systems should be able to
deal with this in a similar way (or even easier by letting the driver
match on the ak prefix as well for this particular chip).

So:

It's usually enough to show the first 12 (or so) characters of the SHA1
here. git will show you the right one if you do something like:

	git log --abbrev=12 --abbrev-commit

It's probably useful to "git config core.abbrev 12" for Linux kernel
repositories.

Other than that it seems like you're being overly careful about not
exceeding 72 characters. Your lines seem to wrap at around less than
50 columns. However, making lines too short results in equally hard to
read commit messages, so please try to shoot for 72 columns for maximum
readability.

[PATCH v4] of: replace Asahi Kasei Corp venter prefix

[Kuninori Morimoto]

From: Kuninori Morimoto <kuninori.morimoto.gx@renesas.com>

Current vendor-prefixes.txt already has "ak" prefix for Asahi Kasei Corp
by ae8c4209af2c(of: Add vendor prefix for Asahi Kasei Corp.)

It went through the appropriate review process. But, almost all
Asahi Kasei chip drivers are using "asahi-kasei" prefix today.
(arch/arm/boot/dts/tegra20-seaboard.dts only is using "ak,ak8975",
 but there are instances of "asahi-kasei,ak8975" in other dts files.
 And drivers/iio/magnetometer/ak8975.c doesn't support "ak,ak8975")
So, we made a mistake there.

In addition, checkpatch.pl reports WARNING if it is using "asahi-kasei"
prerfix in DT file.
(DT compatible string vendor "asahi-kasei" appears un-documented)

Marking it deprecated and warning with checkpatch is certainly
preferable. So, this patch replace "ak" to "asahi-kasei" in
vendor-prefixes.txt. (and fixup tegra20-seaboard)

OTOH, Asahi Kasei is usually referred to as "AKM", but this patch
doesn't care about it. Because no DT is using that today.

[PATCH v5][resend v6] of: replace Asahi Kasei Corp vendor prefix

[Kuninori Morimoto]

From: Kuninori Morimoto <kuninori.morimoto.gx@renesas.com>

Current vendor-prefixes.txt already has "ak" prefix for Asahi Kasei Corp
by ae8c4209af2c(of: Add vendor prefix for Asahi Kasei Corp.)

It went through the appropriate review process. But, almost all
Asahi Kasei chip drivers are using "asahi-kasei" prefix today.
(arch/arm/boot/dts/tegra20-seaboard.dts only is using "ak,ak8975",
 but there are instances of "asahi-kasei,ak8975" in other dts files.
 And drivers/iio/magnetometer/ak8975.c doesn't support "ak,ak8975" prefix)
So, we made a mistake there.

In addition, checkpatch.pl reports WARNING if it is using "asahi-kasei"
prerfix in DT file.
(DT compatible string vendor "asahi-kasei" appears un-documented)

Marking it deprecated and warning with checkpatch is certainly
preferable. So, this patch replace "ak" to "asahi-kasei" in
vendor-prefixes.txt. (and fixup tegra20-seaboard)

OTOH, Asahi Kasei is usually referred to as "AKM", but this patch
doesn't care about it. Because no DT is using that today.

Re: [PATCH v5][resend v4] of: replace Asahi Kasei Corp vendor prefix

[Kuninori Morimoto]

Hi Stephen, Olof, Arnd, Rob, Andrew

I'm sending this "of: replace Asahi Kasei Corp vendor prefix" during
half-year (since Jun 2014) , many times. But, no-one care it.
I don't know who is the best maintainer.
 - Stephen : because it has Tegra ?
 - Olof    : because it has Tegra (= ARM) ?
 - Arnd    : because it has Tegra (= ARM) ?
 - Matthias: because it has Tegra (= ARM SoC) ?
 - Rob     : because DT ?
 - Andrew  : Last chance ?

But, could you please care this patch ?
I will re-send it again

It doesn't seem to be ack'd by any of the DT maintainers. Retro-actively
changing a DT vendor name would need that, I think.

Thierry and Alex (both Tegra maintainers) appear to have ack'd it, so it
seems they expect it to go through some tree other than Tegra. Weren't
there a bunch of related patches along with this (e.g. updating relevant
drivers to support both prefixes?) so it was expected this patch would
be applied together with them?

Rob ?
I had sent this patch to him since half-years ago, many times...
Or other maintainer ?

I guess they expected it goes to DT branch (?)
This is only 1 patch. it doesn't have related patch-set

It is in my queue. If the users of it are fine with breaking things,
who am I to argue with them.

It's an i2c device, so it won't break, based on the implementation
we use in the kernel that ignores the vendor part when the part number
matches the i2c driver name.

I also don't think we need to worry about any non-Linux operating
systems on this board that might share the same dts file.

Plus this update is actually changing the board DT file have the ID
which we've always had in the driver, the driver has always used the new
string and never the ak, based one that the device tree is registering.
