dt: protect against NULL matches passed to of_match_node()

2011-03-23T20:55:55Z

There are a few use cases where it is convenient to pass NULL to of_match_node() and have it fail gracefully. The patch adds a null check to the beginning so taht it does so. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely

of: use __be32 types for big-endian device tree data

2010-10-13T03:58:42Z

Use the sparse annotations so we can keep track of endianness. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr Signed-off-by: Grant Likely

of: Fix phandle endian issues

2010-07-24T22:51:52Z

The flat tree code wasn't fixing the endianness on phandle values when unflattening the tree, and the code in drivers/of wasn't always doing a be32_to_cpu before trying to dereference the phandle values. This patch fixes them. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely

of: refactor of_modalias_node() and remove explicit match table.

2010-07-05T22:14:52Z

This patch tightens up the behaviour of of_modalias_node() to be more predicatable and to eliminate the explicit of_modalias_tablep[] that is currently used to override the first entry in the compatible list of a device. The override table was needed originally because spi and i2c drivers had no way to do of-style matching. Now that all devices can have an of_node pointer, and all drivers can have an of_match_table, the explicit override table is no longer needed because each driver can specify its own OF-style match data. The mpc8349emitx-mcu driver is modified to explicitly specify the correct device to bind against. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

2010-03-30T13:02:32Z

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

of: assume big-endian properties, adding conversions where necessary

2010-02-09T15:34:10Z

Properties in the device tree are specified as big-endian. At present, the only platforms to support device trees are also big-endian, so we've been acessing the properties as raw values. We'd like to add device tree support to little-endian platforms too, so add endian conversion to the sites where we access property values in the common of code. Compiled on powerpc (ppc44x_defconfig & ppc64_defconfig) and arm (fdt support only for now). Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr Signed-off-by: Grant Likely

of: include linux/proc_fs.h

2010-02-09T15:34:09Z

We use a few procfs-specific functions (eg, proc_device_tree_*) which aren't covered by the current includes. This causes the following build error on arm: drivers/of/base.c: In function 'prom_add_property': drivers/of/base.c:861: error: implicit declaration of function 'proc_device_tree_add_prop' drivers/of/base.c: In function 'prom_remove_property': drivers/of/base.c:902: error: implicit declaration of function 'proc_device_tree_remove_prop' drivers/of/base.c: In function 'prom_update_property': drivers/of/base.c:946: error: implicit declaration of function 'proc_device_tree_update_prop' Add proc_fs.h for these prototypes.
