[RFC 0/2] [media] si4713 DT binding

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

 




Hi,

This is an RFC patch adding DT support to the si4713 radio transmitter i2c
driver. The changes can be summarized as follows:

 * Move regulator information back into the driver. The regulators needed are
   documented in the chip and have nothing to do with boarddata. Instead
   devm_regulator_get_optional and errors are handled quite loosely now.
   Maybe the USB driver should provide dummy regulators.
 * GPIO handling is updated to gpiod consumer interface, resulting in a driver
   cleanup and easy DT handling
 * The driver is updated to use managed resources wherever possible

So much about the nice stuff. But there is also

 * Instantiation of the platform device from the i2c (sub-)device. Since DT
   is not supposed to contain linuxisms the device is a simple i2c node
   resulting in the i2c probe function being called. Thus registering the main
   v4l device must happen from there.

Tested:
 * Compilation on torvalds/linux.git:master
 * Booting in DT mode
 * Some simply driver queries using v4l2-ctl

Not tested:
 * The USB driver, since I do not own the USB dongle
 * The legacy platform code (only DT boot has been tested).
   (The legacy platform code is supposed to removed in the near future anyways)
