From: David Daney <david.daney@xxxxxxxxxx> As per the Subject, given a device tree fragment like this: spi@1070000001000 { compatible = "cavium,octeon-3010-spi"; reg = <0x10700 0x00001000 0x0 0x100>; interrupts = <0 58>; #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; eeprom@0 { compatible = "st,m95256", "atmel,at25"; reg = <0>; spi-max-frequency = <5000000>; spi-cpha; spi-cpol; pagesize = <64>; size = <32768>; address-width = <16>; }; }; The at25 module is autoloaded and configured from the device tree data. 1/3) Make of_modalias_node() work better for auto loading drivers. 2/3) Use MODALIAS prefixed with "spi:" for SPI drivers so modprobe can find the proper driver module. 3/3) Use standard eeprom device tree binding to configure at25, convert MODULE_ALIAS(), to equivalent MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(). David Daney (3): of: Add prefix parameter to of_modalias_node(). spi: Use consistent MODALIAS values. eeprom/of: Add device tree bindings to at25. drivers/misc/eeprom/at25.c | 61 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- drivers/of/base.c | 22 +++++++++++---- drivers/of/of_i2c.c | 2 +- drivers/of/of_spi.c | 2 +- drivers/spi/spi.c | 39 +++++++++++++++++++++++--- include/linux/of.h | 3 +- sound/soc/fsl/mpc8610_hpcd.c | 2 +- sound/soc/fsl/p1022_ds.c | 2 +- 8 files changed, 113 insertions(+), 20 deletions(-) -- 1.7.2.3 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-doc" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
