2008-05-15[POWERPC] Add null pointer check to of_find_propertyTimur Tabi
Update function of_find_property() to return NULL if the device_node passed to it is also NULL. Otherwise, passing NULL will cause a null pointer dereference. Without this, the legacy_serial driver will crash if there's no 'chosen' node in the device tree. Signed-off-by: Timur Tabi <timur@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2008-04-07[POWERPC] Add of_device_is_available functionJosh Boyer
IEEE 1275 defined a standard "status" property to indicate the operational status of a device. The property has four possible values: okay, disabled, fail, fail-xxx. The absence of this property means the operational status of the device is unknown or okay. This adds a function called of_device_is_available that checks the state of the status property of a device. If the property is absent or set to either "okay" or "ok", it returns 1. Otherwise it returns 0. Signed-off-by: Josh Boyer <jwboyer@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>
2008-02-06[POWERPC] Add of_get_next_parent()Michael Ellerman
Iterating through a device node's parents is simple enough, but dealing with the refcounts properly is a little ugly, and replicating that logic is asking for someone to get it wrong or forget it all together, eg: while (dn != NULL) { /* loop body */ tmp = of_get_parent(dn); of_node_put(dn); dn = tmp; } So add of_get_next_parent(), inspired by of_get_next_child(). The contract is that it returns the parent and drops the reference on the current node, this makes the loop look like: while (dn != NULL) { /* loop body */ dn = of_get_next_parent(dn); } Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Acked-by: David S.

2008-01-17[POWERPC] Add of_find_matching_node() helper functionGrant Likely
Similar to of_find_compatible_node(), of_find_matching_node() and for_each_matching_node() allow you to iterate over the device tree looking for specific nodes, except that they take of_device_id tables instead of strings. This also moves of_match_node() from driver/of/device.c to driver/of/base.c to colocate it with the of_find_matching_node which depends on it.

2007-07-20Consolidate of_find_node_by routinesStephen Rothwell
This consolidates the routines of_find_node_by_path, of_find_node_by_name, of_find_node_by_type and of_find_compatible_device. Again, the comparison of strings are done differently by Sparc and PowerPC and also these add read_locks around the iterations.

2007-07-20Consolidate of_get_next_childStephen Rothwell
This adds a read_lock around the child/next accesses on Sparc. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Acked-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-07-20Consolidate of_get_parentStephen Rothwell
This requires creating dummy of_node_{get,put} routines for sparc and sparc64. It also adds a read_lock around the parent accesses. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Acked-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2007-07-20Consolidate of_find_propertyStephen Rothwell
The only change here is that a readlock is taken while the property list is being traversed on Sparc where it was not taken previously. Also, Sparc uses strcasecmp to compare property names while PowerPC uses strcmp. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Acked-by: David S.

2007-07-20Consolidate of_device_is_compatibleStephen Rothwell
The only difference here is that Sparc uses strncmp to match compatibility names while PowerPC uses strncasecmp. Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Acked-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org> Acked-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
