[PATCH v7 00/10] platform/chrome: Introduce DT hardware prober

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

 



Hi everyone,

This is v7 of my "of: Introduce hardware prober driver" [1] series.
v7 mainly refactors the code into a series of helpers. The scope of
supported components is also reduced to those with at most one regulator
supply and one GPIO pin. Also the helpers expect these to be named and
so the "bulk get" API changes have been dropped.

Also, a pull request to document the "fail-needs-probe" status has been
sent: https://github.com/devicetree-org/dt-schema/pull/141

v2 continued Doug's "of: device: Support 2nd sources of probeable but
undiscoverable devices" [2] series, but follows the scheme suggested by
Rob, marking all second source component device nodes as "fail-needs-probe",
and having a hardware prober driver enable the one of them.

See v5 cover letter for previous change logs.

For the I2C component (touchscreens and trackpads) case from the
original series, the hardware prober driver finds the particular
class of device in the device tree, gets its parent I2C adapter,
and tries to initiate a simple I2C read for each device under that
I2C bus. When it finds one that responds, it considers that one
present, marks it as "okay", and returns, letting the driver core
actually probe the device.

This works fine in most cases since these components are connected
via a ribbon cable and always have the same resources. The prober
will also grab these resources and enable them.

The other case, selecting a display panel to use based on the SKU ID
from the firmware, hit a bit of an issue with fixing the OF graph.
It has been left out since v3.

Patch 1 adds of_changeset_update_prop_string(), as requested by Rob.

Patch 2 adds for_each_child_of_node_with_prefix(), as suggested by Andy.

Patches 3 through 4 reorganize the OF-specific regulator core code and
adds a new of_regulator_get_optional() function to look up regulator
supplies solely using device tree nodes.

Patch 5 cleans up some extra spaces in the i2c core Makefile

Patch 6 implements probing the I2C bus for presence of components as
a hookable helper function in the I2C core.

Patch 7 implements regulator supply support as a set of simple helpers
for the I2C component prober.

Patch 8 implements GPIO support for the I2C component prober simple
helpers.

Patch 9 adds a ChromeOS specific DT hardware prober. This initial
version targets the Hana Chromebooks, probing its I2C trackpads and
touchscreens.

Patch 10 modifies the Hana device tree and marks the touchscreens
and trackpads as "fail-needs-probe", ready for the driver to probe.


The patch and build time dependencies for this series is now quite
complicated:

  regulator cleanups in -next -> regulator patches here ----
							   |
							   v
  platform/chrome device tree hardware prober <--- i2c of-prober
 
The regulator patches in this series depend on other cleanup patches [1]
that are already in -next. Patches 6 through 8 introducting i2c of-prober
depend on the first 5 patches. Patch 11, The chrome prober, depends on
patch 6 for now.

I think it would be easier if the respective maintainers take the first
four patches for -rc1. Wolfram has agreed to take the remaining i2c and
chrome patches through the i2c tree once the other bits have landed,
Patch 12 can go in only after everything else is in. This should be
better than having an immutable branch on top of some commit in -next
for other trees to consume.

This might be the last revision I send out before ELCE / Plumbers, as
I'm traveling to Austria a few day earlier. If there are more concerns
about the design, maybe we could discuss it in person then if all
concerned parties are present.


Thanks
ChenYu
