Premi, Sanjeev had written, on 10/22/2010 05:01 AM, the following:
During module_init I used omap_device_build() to create the
omap_device.
But when trying to implement the module_exit, I couldn't find the
corresponding 'destructor'.
omap_device_build essentially does a platform_device
register today
and hence its not something to be done from a insmod'able 'driver'.
[sp] How does this work for - say dspbridge - where the DSP
as device
may not be 'registered' until it is really expected to be used?
arch/arm/mach-omap2/dspbridge.c? ;)
Which repo? On the dspbridge branch on linux-omap, there is not such
:) it is not there as dspbridge is in staging at the moment - I believe
there is some sort of rule of not depending on staging drivers or
something like that.. but the point I was attempting to make is backing
Rajendra's statement -> split your driver into silicon specific data and
silicon independent driver -> the silicon dependent data (like hwmod)
can be collected by a file located in arch/arm/mach-omap2 -> pass the
data as platform_data(with stuff like baseaddress etc..) to the driver
and things can happily function.. Would suggest posting out a RFC patch
if you'd like better ideas from the community I guess.
