i2c-mux-pca954x ACPI case

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The commit bbf9d262a147aeaeee0bf4e1c121166d69e556d4 ("i2c: mux: pca954x:
Add ACPI support for pca954x") adds a so called "ACPI support" for the
driver and thus I have few questions (besides obvious typo in it):

0. Had it ever been tested?
1. Is there *real* DSDT / registered ACPI IDs for a such device(s)?
2. If "yes" on 1, can you provide Documentation with *real* DSDT
excerpt?

If the answer is "no" on 2, I'm about to revert this, because
ACPI is *not* like Device Tree chaotic mess. Any ID, property and
related stuff *must* be officially registered and carefully chosen.

To maintainers of the drivers, including but not limited to I2C
subsystem, please, Cc ACPI guys (Rafael, Mika, me, etc) *before*
applying any ACPI IDs if there no clear and *real* DSDT excerpt.

It's disregard if this case (pca954x) valid or not.

Thank you for understanding.
