[PATCH v2 07/14] remoteproc: Add a rproc_set_firmware() API

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

 



From: Suman Anna <s-anna@xxxxxx>

A new API, rproc_set_firmware() is added to allow the remoteproc platform
drivers and remoteproc client drivers to be able to configure a custom
firmware name that is different from the default name used during
remoteproc registration. This function is being introduced to provide
a kernel-level equivalent of the current sysfs interface to remoteproc
client drivers. This allows some remoteproc drivers to choose different
firmwares at runtime when the remote processor is not running based on
the functional feature it is providing using that remote processor.
The TI PRU Ethernet driver will be an example of such usage as it
requires to use different firmwares for different supported protocols.

Also, update the firmware_store() function used by the sysfs interface
to reuse this function to avoid code duplication.
