Looking at the usecases I wonder if it would be better to pass in an unsigned int *ret which is only updated on a match? That way the common properties approach of not checking the return value if we have an optional property would apply. e.g. patch 3 would end up with a block that looks like: st->input_mode = ADMV1014_IQ_MODE; device_property_match_property_string(&spi->dev, "adi,input-mode", input_mode_names, ARRAY_SIZE(input_mode_names), &st->input_mode); Only neat and tidy if the thing being optionally read into is an unsigned int though (otherwise you still need a local variable) Jonathan > +{ > + const char *string; > + int ret; > + > + ret = fwnode_property_read_string(fwnode, propname, &string); > + if (ret) > + return ret; > + > + ret = match_string(array, n, string); > + if (ret < 0) > + ret = -ENOENT; > + > + return ret; > +} > +EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(fwnode_property_match_property_string); > + > /** > * fwnode_property_get_reference_args() - Find a reference with arguments > * @fwnode: Firmware node where to look for the reference > diff --git a/include/linux/property.h b/include/linux/property.h > index 8c3c6685a2ae..11f3ad6814f2 100644 > --- a/include/linux/property.h > +++ b/include/linux/property.h > @@ -97,6 +97,18 @@ static inline bool device_is_compatible(const struct device *dev, const char *co > return fwnode_device_is_compatible(dev_fwnode(dev), compat); > } > > +int fwnode_property_match_property_string(const struct fwnode_handle *fwnode, > + const char *propname, > + const char * const *array, size_t n); > + > +static inline > +int device_property_match_property_string(const struct device *dev, > + const char *propname, > + const char * const *array, size_t n) > +{ > + return fwnode_property_match_property_string(dev_fwnode(dev), propname, array, n); > +} > + > int fwnode_property_get_reference_args(const struct fwnode_handle *fwnode, > const char *prop, const char *nargs_prop, > unsigned int nargs, unsigned int index,
