I have concern that the raw layout inside the parameter block is
still exposed to drivers and need to be parsed by each driver.
Raw parameter block will always have to be passed to the driver because HW
specific properties can be defined that will need to be parsed by the
specific driver.
How about we define HW agnostic IDs for parameter specific fields like:
PARAM_ID FIELD_ID
================================
MSIX STARTV
NUMV
--------------------------------
CLK FREQ
--------------------------------
FIFO LEN
--------------------------------
REG_LAYOUT WIDTH
SHIFT
And define like u64 dfl_find_param(struct dfl_device *, int param_id, int field_id)
I don't think dfl_find_param as defined above adds much value.
Think further, if we have to define HW agnostic property - value pairs,
why don't we just use "Software nodes for the firmware node", see
drivers/base/swnode.c. I think this may be a better choice.
I am looking into "Software nodes for the firmware node", and it can be
used for HW agnostic properties. Each dfl driver will still have to
make a function call to fetch each HW agnostice property value as well as
a function call to find the HW specific parameters and then parse those
parameters.
Thanks,
