I have a question about the device "uevent" and "modalias" sysfs
attributes.
what is the relationship between these two?
Am I right to say that, if there is the "MODALIAS" field in uevent file,
this field must be consistent with the content in "modalias" attribute?
Well, if it isn't, it's pretty pointless, right?
static int platform_uevent(struct device *dev, struct kobj_uevent_env
*env)
{
struct platform_device *pdev = to_platform_device(dev);
int rc;
/* Some devices have extra OF data and an OF-style MODALIAS */
rc = of_device_uevent_modalias(dev, env);
if (rc != -ENODEV)
return rc;
add_uevent_var(env, "MODALIAS=%s%s", PLATFORM_MODULE_PREFIX,
pdev->name);
return 0;
}
This means that the OF-style MODALIAS is not shown in "modalias" sysfs
attribute.
is this a bug?
Here is an example from one DT based system:
cat /sys/bus/platform/devices/48070000.i2c/uevent
DRIVER=omap_i2c
OF_NAME=i2c
OF_FULLNAME=/ocp/i2c@48070000
OF_COMPATIBLE_0=ti,omap4-i2c
OF_COMPATIBLE_N=1
MODALIAS=of:Ni2cT<NULL>Cti,omap4-i2c
cat /sys/bus/platform/devices/48070000.i2c/modalias
platform:48070000.i2c
And a device on that I2C bus:
cat /sys/bus/platform/devices/rtc.11/uevent
DRIVER=twl_rtc
OF_NAME=rtc
OF_FULLNAME=/ocp/i2c@48070000/twl@48/rtc
OF_COMPATIBLE_0=ti,twl4030-rtc
OF_COMPATIBLE_N=1
MODALIAS=of:NrtcT<NULL>Cti,twl4030-rtc
cat /sys/bus/platform/devices/rtc.11/modalias
platform:rtc.11
Unfortunately I cannot debug above example further at the moment is
there failing or needless modprobe calls. Maybe device tree experts know
better?
