[PATCH] of: add helper function to retrive match data

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

 




It's a common operation for device drivers to retrive the data
member from of_device_id struct in their probe function.

Most driver end up doing:
    const struct of_device_id *match;
    match = of_match_device(driver_of_match, &pdev->dev);
    driver->data = match->data;

With the of_device_get_match_data helper function all this can
done in one go.

Hi DT maintainers,

Here is the patch to add of_device_get_match_data as indicated in:
http://marc.info/?l=devicetree&m=143068795621692&w=2

There are lot of device driver that can be simplified with this
helper function. After the function has gone upstream I will
spend some time getting some of them converted over.

Maybe someone with Coccinelle skills could create a script to
do some of the work also.

regards,
Joachim Eastwood
