Good! I think the driver is a bit confusing because it has two ways of checking features: soc based and feature flag based. Thus, removing one is a good step. > Such solution provides simpler, easier to understand code and Well, that is arguable. IMO, the feature based solution is naturally easier to understand as while reading the code, you think about the feature not about chip / IP/ SoC versions. Besides, having soc based approach spreads many if's in your code base. Anyways, so far no one working in the Exynos code base has nacked your proposal. Apart from that, the issue I had with it, as I mentioned, was the fact that it currently has two ways of representing / checking features.

I understand you are basing new changes in the code on top of this series, but I don't see how this refactoring could enable other feature implementions. > The patchset should not cause any functionality changes.

Is it possible to spread testing here? I would like to have coverage for all supported chip versions. The reasoning is because the driver supports more than Exynos4412, and the amount of changes are considerably big. One thing I can do is to start testing in linux-next on this code. Thus, I can merge it in my -next branch (which includes my -linus and -fixes branches). But so far, it would not be queued. My proposal is that these changes will be sent only for the 3.19 merge window though. For 3.18 -rc's I believe it is too late. However, to get it into 3.19, I request you to provide the testing in all supported chips, as I mentioned. Do you think it is doable before Linus opens 3.19 merge window? > > Depends on: > - 'next' branch of linux-soc-thermal.git kernel tree from Eduardo > Thanks for attending my request. > Changes since v1 (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/18/305): > - rebased on top of the current linux-soc-thermal kernel > > Best regards, > -- > Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz > Samsung R&D Institute Poland > Samsung Electronics > > > Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz (33): > thermal: exynos: remove needless triminfo_data abstraction > thermal: exynos: remove needless tmu_status abstraction > thermal: exynos: remove needless threshold_temp abstraction > thermal: exynos: remove needless triminfo_ctrl abstraction > thermal: exynos: remove needless test_mux_addr_shift abstraction > thermal: exynos: remove needless therm_trip_[mode,mask]_shift > abstractions > thermal: exynos: remove needless therm_trip_en_shift abstraction > thermal: exynos: remove needless emul_temp_shift abstraction > thermal: exynos: remove needless emul_time_shift abstraction > thermal: exynos: replace tmu_irqstatus check by Exynos5440 one > thermal: exynos: replace tmu_pmin check by Exynos5440 one > thermal: exynos: simplify HW_TRIP level setting > thermal: exynos: replace threshold_falling check by Exynos SoC type > one > thermal: exynos: remove TMU_SUPPORT_READY_STATUS flag > thermal: exynos: remove TMU_SUPPORT_TRIM_RELOAD flag > thermal: exynos: add sanitize_temp_error() helper > thermal: exynos: add get_th_reg() helper > thermal: exynos: add ->tmu_initialize method > thermal: exynos: add get_con_reg() helper > thermal: exynos: add ->tmu_control method > thermal: exynos: add ->tmu_read method > thermal: exynos: add get_emul_con_reg() helper > thermal: exynos: add ->tmu_set_emulation method > thermal: exynos: add ->tmu_clear_irqs method > thermal: exynos: remove TMU_SUPPORT_FALLING_TRIP flag > thermal: exynos: remove TMU_SUPPORT_EMUL_TIME flag > thermal: exynos: remove TMU_SUPPORT_EMULATION flag > thermal: exynos: remove TMU_SUPPORT_ADDRESS_MULTIPLE flag > thermal: exynos: remove TMU_SUPPORT_MULTI_INST flag > thermal: exynos: remove test_mux pdata field > thermal: exynos: remove SoC type ifdefs > thermal: exynos: remove __EXYNOS5420_TMU_DATA macro > thermal: exynos: remove exynos_tmu_data.h include > > drivers/thermal/samsung/exynos_thermal_common.h | 1 - > drivers/thermal/samsung/exynos_tmu.c | 692 ++++++++++++++++-------- > drivers/thermal/samsung/exynos_tmu.h | 123 +---- > drivers/thermal/samsung/exynos_tmu_data.c | 239 +------- > drivers/thermal/samsung/exynos_tmu_data.h | 159 ------ > 5 files changed, 485 insertions(+), 729 deletions(-) > delete mode 100644 drivers/thermal/samsung/exynos_tmu_data.h > > -- > 1.8.2.3 >
