As the above two variants are almost identical, perhaps it makes sense
to drop one of them, drop the const, and override the irq values
dynamically?


I prefer a declarative or data-driven style, even if it takes a few more
lines of code. But there is a compromise:

static const struct resource mac_ide_quadra_rsrc[] __initconst = {
        DEFINE_RES_MEM(0x50F1A000, 0x104),
        DEFINE_RES_IRQ(IRQ_NUBUS_F),
}

static const struct resource mac_ide_pb_rsrc[] __initconst = {
        DEFINE_RES_MEM(0x50F1A000, 0x104),
        DEFINE_RES_IRQ(IRQ_NUBUS_C),
}

The reason I didn't use these macros was to avoid making the reader go and
look up their definitions. Anyway, would that style be preferred here?

I think the DEFINE_RES_*() are sufficiently common (well, in pre-DT
platforms ;-)

I could do the same with the mac_ide_baboon_rsrc[] initializer:

static const struct resource mac_pata_baboon_rsrc[] __initconst = {
        DEFINE_RES_MEM(0x50F1A000, 0x38),
        DEFINE_RES_MEM(0x50F1A038, 0x04),
        DEFINE_RES_IRQ(IRQ_BABOON_1),
};

... but that would lose the IORESOURCE_IRQ_SHAREABLE flag. I'm not sure
whether that matters (it's a vestige of macide.c).

You can still use DEFINE_RES_NAMED() to pass the flags.
Would you consider that to be a good compromise?

Just wondering: how is this implemented in drivers/ide/macide.c, which
doesn't use the platform info?

That factor of 4 is embedded in the address caclulation:

        for (i = 0; i < 8; i++)
                hw->io_ports_array[i] = base + i * 4;

IC. But in the new code, the platform info is passed for Baboon only,
while the old code used it for all variants.

Do you still need this definition?
Yes, because it's still used to access IDE_IFR.
Ideally, that should be converted to use the base from the resource,
too.


Yes, that was my thought too. I can make the change if you like, but I
can't test it until I set up the appropriate hardware (MAC_IDE_QUADRA or
MAC_IDE_PB). I do own that hardware but it is located in Melbourne and it
is now illegal to visit Melbourne without official papers. Besides, once I
can test on that hardware I can replace the entire driver anyway, and
this kind of refactoring would become moot.

OK.

How does the driver know not to use the special port_ops after
this change?


The driver always uses the special port_ops after this change because it
no longer handles the MAC_IDE_BABOON case. That case is handled by either

non-MAC_IDE_BABOON case?

drivers/ata/pata_platform.c or drivers/ide/ide_platform.c, depending on
.config.

Ideally, we do need to differentiate, right?
