[PATCH RFC] modpost: Support I2C Aliases from OF tables

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

 



I2C drivers match against an I2C ID table, an OF table, and an ACPI
table. It is now also possible to match against an OF table entry
without the vendor prefix to support backwards compatibility, and allow
simplification of the i2c probe functions.

As part of this matching, the probe function is being converted to
remove the need to specify the i2c_device_id table, but to support
module aliasing, we still require to have the MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE entry.

Facilitate generating the I2C aliases directly from the of_device_id
tables, by stripping the vendor prefix prefix from the compatible string
and using that as an alias just as the i2c-core supports.

Drivers which remove the i2c_device_id table can then register against
the of_device_id table by adding an extra MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE
registration as shown by the following example:

 /* si4713_i2c_driver - i2c driver interface */
-static const struct i2c_device_id si4713_id[] = {
-       { "si4713" , 0 },
-       { },
-};
-MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(i2c, si4713_id);

 static const struct of_device_id si4713_of_match[] = {
        { .compatible = "silabs,si4713" },
        { },
 };
 MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, si4713_of_match);
+MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(i2c_of, si4713_of_match);

Several drivers have had their i2c_device_id tables removed entirely
which will lead to their module aliases being limited, during the
following patches:

0f21700ac40c ("rtc: pcf85063: switch to probe_new")
3a4f4f2963f4 ("ASoC: rt5677: Convert I2C driver to ->probe_new()")
511cb17448d9 ("mfd: tps65217: Introduce dependency on CONFIG_OF")
8597c0920d6f ("NFC: fdp: Convert I2C driver to ->probe_new()")
b8a1a4cd5a98 ("i2c: Provide a temporary .probe_new() call-back type")

The following patches might require I2C aliases to be generated from
their ACPI tables:

e19c92059a70 ("media: staging: atomisp: Switch i2c drivers to use ->probe_new()")
f758eb2363ec ("media: dw9714: Remove ACPI match tables, convert to use probe_new")
