Hi folks, I'm looking for a way to inject fwnode data from a platform driver, in order to initialize generic drivers w/ board specific configuration. The idea is getting rid of passing driver specific pdata structs (which, IIRC, seem to be deprecated). An example usecase is the APUv2/3 board, which have things like gpios wired to buttons and LEDs. The board can only be detected via DMI string, no way to probe the platform devices - have to be initialized explicitly (that's how I'm already doing it now). The nicest way, IMHO, would be if I could just write some piece of DTS and some fancy magic all the rest under the hood. Such thing doesn't seem to exist yet. Does it make sense to implement that ? How could we do it ? Which other options do we have ? Or should we just leave everything as it is and stick w/ pdata structs ? thx --mtx -- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT consult Free software and Linux embedded engineering info@xxxxxxxxx -- +49-151-27565287
