[PATCH] of: replace of_match_node() macro by a function when !CONFIG_OF

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

 



In the !CONFIG_OF case, replace the of_match_node() macro implementation
by a static function. This ensures drivers calling of_match_node() can
be COMPILE_TESTed.

include/linux/of.h declares of_match_node() like this:

	#ifdef CONFIG_OF
	extern const struct of_device_id *of_match_node(
		const struct of_device_id *matches, const struct device_node *node);
	#else
	#define of_match_node(_matches, _node)	NULL
	#endif

When used inside an expression, those two implementations behave truly
differently. The macro implementation has (at least) two pitfalls:

 - Arguments are removed by the preprocessor meaning they do not appear
   to the compiler. This can give "defined but not used" warnings.

 - The returned value type is (void *)
   versus (const struct of_device_id *).
   It works okay if the value is stored in a variable, thanks to C's
   implicit void pointer casting rules. It causes build errors if used
   like `of_match_data(...)->data`.
