Why not simply drop the second register range here, and the minimal top-ctrl
poking you need in the phy driver's phy_init function ?
I agree it's a little ugly, but your recommended solution will not work.
The 'top-ctrl' register range includes several SATA functionalities,
some of which are required for the PHY and some of which are definitely
required for the SATA driver.
I see, but the phy driver is required for the SATA driver anyways,
and since the BUS_CTRL setting seems to be static it might just as
well be set by the phy driver. The phy driver also poking some
common sata glue bits like this busctrl register is not unheard of,
esp. when these glue bits are in the phy register range.
We have:
0x00 VERSION
0x04 BUS_CTRL
0x08 TP_CTRL
0x0C PHY_CTRL_1
0x10 PHY_CTRL_2
0x14 PHY_CTRL_3
0x18 PHY_CTRL_4
0x1C TP_OUT
0x20 CLIENT_INIT_CTRL
We *definitely* need the BUS_CTRL register in the SATA driver, since it
controls the endianness of the AHCI register set as well as a few other
important bits we may use in the future.
Are these bits non static, e.g. something which you may want to change at
another time then init/shutdown/suspend/resume ? If they are static I still
think this all clearly belongs in the phy driver, since this looks a lot
like it is a single hardware block.
If otoh these other bits may need runtime poking for e.g. sata error recovery,
then I can understand why you want the bus ctrl register in the sata driver,
but in that case it should only be mapped by the sata driver, and the phy driver
register ranges should not cover it.
So we can't just "drop" the
"minimal poking" and expect things to work, just because that makes the
device tree look nicer :)
I was not suggesting to drop it I was suggesting moving the poke to phy_init,
and given the registermap you've shown above I still think that this belongs
more in the phy driver then anywhere else.
The problem is what to do with the PHY_CTRL registers that are kept in
the middle of the block. These really belong as part of the PHY
power-on/power-off control sequence (i.e., PHY driver).
Do you have any better suggestions that don't involve dropping the
BUS_CTRL register from the SATA driver?
Nope, if you really believe that the bus-ctrl register should be part of
the sata driver, then please just split the register ranges at a per register
level, to remove the overlap + the hack of not claiming the resource on one side.
This avoids the weird / ugly register overlap with the phy driver, and I think you
can then just use the ahci_platform driver unmodified.

Why not simply use: reg = <0x458000 0x2000>, to me it seems that what you should
really be using here.
0x458000 to 0x45800f and 0x458080 to 0x4580af belong to a debug
interrupt controller, which handles bus error handling. It's currently
unused, and it definitely doesn't belong here.
The 'phy' register range is actually documented as two sets of identical
registers:
0x458100 - 0x458fff Port0 SATA PHY registers
0x459100 - 0x459fff Port1 SATA PHY registers
with a hole between them. I definitely don't want to do the combining
that you suggested, but I could probably split them apart if that really
helps...
If this is the documented register range, then I think that splitting them makes
sense, and assuming that the init code for both ports is the same it may
even make for cleaner code.

Hans
