Allow testing for omap type with omap_has_feature. This
can be used to leave out cpu_is_omapxxxx checks.

here is my contention:
there will be two ways to use this:
omap_has_feature(OMAP_HAS_SGX) and omap_has_feature(OMAP3_HAS_SGX)
OMAP_HAS_SGX should return true or false no matter what omap silicon it is.
OMAP3_HAS_SGX usage is meant for what? it is a mixture of cpu_is_omap3() and
omap_has_feature(OMAP_HAS_SGX) - tries to do two things in one shot. which
defeats why we are trying to introduce a generic omap_has_feature in the
first place.
a) confusing as there seems to be two standards
b) redundant information use cpu_is_omapxyz() if needed.
IMHO:
+#define OMAP_HAS_L2CACHE BIT(0)
+#define OMAP_HAS_IVA BIT(1)
+#define OMAP_HAS_SGX BIT(2)
+#define OMAP_HAS_NEON BIT(3)
+#define OMAP_HAS_ISP BIT(4)
+#define OMAP3_HAS_192MHZ_CLK BIT(5)
+#define OMAP_HAS_IO_WAKEUP BIT(6)
and later if needed
+#define OMAP4_SOME_NEW_OMAP4ONLY_FEATURE BIT(7)
where OMAP3_HAS is indicative that this is a OMAP3 *only* feature and should
be used to differentiate between various omap3 silicon.
Benefits:
a) distinction b/w omap generic and omap family specific features
b) you get to define 32 features instead of reserving 24-32 for OMAP
classes.
I still can't grok the need for the distinction in (a), and for
"" +#define OMAP4_SOME_NEW_OMAP4ONLY_FEATURE BIT(7)"" etc.
OMAP_HAS_192MHZ_CLK -> does not indicate if this is omap3 ONLY feature
(e.g. 3430 does not have it, 3630 has it) but we know that omap4, 2, 1
etc dont need it.
in terms of readability, when i see omap_has_feature(OMAP3_HAS_xyz), I
can immediately review the code/read the code with the context of omap3
alone Vs if this code was used in omap4/2/1 context question why it is
so and we can all improve.
e.g. if a generic clock code meant for all omaps used 192MHZ, I would
question why is cpu specific feature being used there. which is easier
with a OMAP3_ tag.
If that OMAP4ONLY_FEATURE has to be checked, then the code
to use it will also be OMAP4 specific.
IOW, as a user, there are 2 ways to use omap_has_xxxx()
void a_generic_funciton_for_all_omaps() {
if (cpu_has_xxxx_feature()
/* Do generic stuff */
}
void a_omap_4_specific_function() {
if (omap_has_that_new_feature()
/* Do omap_4 specific stuff */
}
See above explanation. sitting in the shoes of a reviewer who looks
through code not written by self, it helps to have some differentiation
in definitions to aid review.
In a_generic_function_for_all_omaps(), if there is a need for checking
OMAP4_has_xxxx,
then the code will eventually be ugly. There is going to be a
cpu_is_xxxx() overload, for things
not expressed through features framework.
No matter how elegant the framework is, someone definitely will find a
crappy way to use it.. we've all been there, seen that and some of us
(including yours truely) done that.
I did read the other thread
http://marc.info/?l=linux-omap&m=127858108626850&w=2
and it's been discussed before as well. But I can't see a genuine use
case yet, and what is the loss involved
if a omap3_has_192mhz_clk is expressed as omap_has_192mhz_clk, even if
it is omap3 specific.
Thanks,
Venkat.
