[PATCH] OF: Utility helper functions for dynamic nodes

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

 




Introduce helper functions for working with the live DT tree,
all of them related to dynamically adding/removing nodes and
properties.

__of_free_property() frees a dynamically created property
__of_free_tree() recursively frees a device node tree
__of_copy_property() copies a property dynamically
__of_create_empty_node() creates an empty node

Bug fix about prop->len == 0 by Ionut Nicu <ioan.nicu.ext@xxxxxxx>
