Subject: [PATCH 02/13] Driver core: Unified device properties interface for platform firmware
Date: Tue, 07 Oct 2014 02:12:59 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1552453.TziEyyQsBz@vostro.rjw.lan> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <2660541.BycO7TFnA2@vostro.rjw.lan>

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

Add a uniform interface by which device drivers can request device
properties from the platform firmware by providing a property name
and the corresponding data type.  The purpose of it is to help to
write portable code that won't depend on any particular platform
firmware interface.

Three general helper functions, device_get_property(),
device_read_property() and device_read_property_array() are provided.
The first one allows the raw value of a given device property to be
accessed.  The remaining two allow the value of a numeric or string
property and multiple numeric or string values of one array
property to be acquired, respectively.  Static inline wrappers are also
provided for the various property data types that can be passed to
device_read_property() or device_read_property_array() for extra type
checking.

The interface covers both ACPI and Device Trees.

This change set includes material from Mika Westerberg and Aaron Lu.
