That way, even if the nvmem is theoretically writeable (no read-only property in DT), the driver still can make it read-only if writing isn't implemented: + nvmem->read_only = nvmem->dev.of_node ? + of_property_read_bool(nvmem->dev.of_node, + "read-only") : 0; + nvmem->read_only |= config->read_only; [...] > new file mode 100644 > index 0000000..f589d3b > --- /dev/null > +++ b/include/linux/nvmem-provider.h [...] > +struct nvmem_config { > + struct device *dev; > + const char *name; > + int id; > + struct module *owner; > + struct nvmem_cell_info *cells; Should that be const? > + int ncells; > + bool read_only; > +}; > + > +#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NVMEM) > + > +struct nvmem_device *nvmem_register(struct nvmem_config *cfg); Then that could be made const, too. best regards Philipp -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-api" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
