[RFC/PATCH] dt: Add of_device_compatible_match()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




This provides an equivalent of of_fdt_match() for non-flat trees.

This is more practical than matching an array of of_device_id structs
when converting a bunch of existing users of of_fdt_match().

This is a pre-requisite for some work I'm doing to move the platform
identification in arch/powerpc until after we have unflattened the
device-tree. Rewriting all those lists as of_device_id's would be
significantly cumbersome.

Note: untested other than it compiles. I want an agreement on the
interface ASAP since the conversion of all the platforms is a burden
I'd like to avoid doing twice.
