2013-02-06of: Output devicetree alias names in ueventStepan Moskovchenko
In some situations, userspace may want to resolve a device by function and logical number (ie, "serial0") rather than by the base address or full device path. Being able to resolve a device by alias frees userspace from the burden of otherwise having to maintain a mapping between device addresses and their logical assignments on each platform when multiple instances of the same hardware block are present in the system. Although the uevent device attribute contains devicetree compatible information and the full device path, the uevent does not list the alises that may have been defined for the device.

2012-02-01drivercore: Output common devicetree information in ueventGrant Likely
When userspace needs to find a specific device, it currently isn't easy to resolve a /sys/devices/ path from a specific device tree node. Nor is it easy to obtain the compatible list for devices. This patch generalizes the code that inserts OF_* values into the uevent device attribute so that any device that is attached to an OF node will have that information exported to userspace. Without this patch only platform devices and some powerpc-specific busses have access to this data. The original function also creates a MODALIAS property for the compatible list, but that code has not been generalized into the common case because it has the potential to break module loading on a lot of bus types. Bus types are still responsible for their own MODALIAS properties. Boot tested on ARM and compile tested on PowerPC and SPARC.

2011-02-28dt/powerpc: move of_bus_type infrastructure to ibmebusGrant Likely
arch/powerpc/kernel/ibmebus.c is the only remaining user of the of_bus_type support code for initializing the bus and registering drivers. All others have either been switched to the vanilla platform bus or already have their own infrastructure. This patch moves the functionality that ibmebus is using out of drivers/of/{platform,device}.c and into ibmebus.c where it is actually used. Also renames the moved symbols from of_platform_* to ibmebus_bus_* to reflect the actual usage. This patch is part of moving all of the of_platform_bus_type users over to the platform_bus_type.

2010-10-21of/device: Rework to use common platform_device_alloc() for allocating devicesGrant Likely
The current code allocates and manages platform_devices created from the device tree manually. It also uses an unsafe shortcut for allocating the platform_device and the resource table at the same time. (which I added in the last rework; sorry). This patch refactors the code to use platform_device_alloc() for allocating new devices. This reduces the amount of custom code implemented by of_platform, eliminates the unsafe alloc trick, and has the side benefit of letting the platform_bus code manage freeing the device data and resources when the device is freed.

2010-08-06of/device: Replace struct of_device with struct platform_deviceGrant Likely
of_device is just an alias for platform_device, so remove it entirely. Also replace to_of_device() with to_platform_device() and update comment blocks.

2010-07-24of/device: Replace of_device with platform_device in includes and core codeGrant Likely

2010-07-24of: Merge of_platform_bus_type with platform_bus_typeGrant Likely
of_platform_bus was being used in the same manner as the platform_bus. The only difference being that of_platform_bus devices are generated from data in the device tree, and platform_bus devices are usually statically allocated in platform code. Having them separate causes the problem of device drivers having to be registered twice if it was possible for the same device to appear on either bus. This patch removes of_platform_bus_type and registers all of_platform bus devices and drivers on the platform bus instead. A previous patch made the of_device structure an alias for the platform_device structure, and a shim is used to adapt of_platform_drivers to the platform bus. After all of of_platform_bus drivers are converted to be normal platform drivers, the shim code can be removed. Signed-off-by: Grant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca> Acked-by: David S.

2008-10-31OF-device: Don't overwrite numa_node in device registrationJeremy Kerr
Currently, the numa_node of OF-devices will be overwritten during device_register, which simply sets the node to -1. On cell machines, this means that devices can't find their IOMMU, which is referenced through the device's numa node. Set the numa node for OF devices with no parent, and use the lower-level device_initialize and device_add functions, so that the node is preserved. We can remove the call to set_dev_node in of_device_alloc, as it will be overwritten during register. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Kerr <jk@ozlabs.org> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2008-08-20powerpc/ibmebus: Restore "name" sysfs attribute on ibmebus devicesJoachim Fenkes
Recent of_platform changes made of_bus_type_init() overwrite the bus type's .dev_attrs list, meaning that the "name" attribute that ibmebus devices previously had is no longer present. This is a user-visible regression which breaks the userspace eHCA support, since the eHCA userspace driver relies on the name attribute to check for valid adapters. This fixes it by providing the "name" attribute in the generic OF device code instead. Tested on POWER.

Create /sys/bus/of_platform/devices/*/modalias file to allow autoloading of modules. Modalias files are already present for many other bus types. This adds also a newline to the devspec files. Also create a devspec file for mac-io devices. They were created as a side effect. Use correct buffer size for mac-io modalias buffer. Tested on iBook1 and Efika.

Similar to of_find_compatible_node(), of_find_matching_node() and for_each_matching_node() allow you to iterate over the device tree looking for specific nodes, except that they take of_device_id tables instead of strings.
