Subject: [RFC PATCH] platform: Faciliatate the creation of pseduo-platform
busses
Inspiration for this comes from:
http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-omap@vger.kernel.org/msg31161.html
INTRO
As SOCs become more popular, the desire to quickly define a simple,
but functional, bus type with only a few unique properties becomes
desirable. As they become more complicated, the ability to nest these
simple busses and otherwise orchestrate them to match the actual
topology also becomes desirable.
EXAMPLE USAGE
/arch/ARCH/MY_ARCH/my_bus.c:
#include <linux/device.h>
#include <linux/platform_device.h>
struct bus_type my_bus_type = {
.name = "mybus",
};
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(my_bus_type);
struct platform_device sub_bus1 = {
.name = "sub_bus1",
.id = -1,
.dev.bus = &my_bus_type,
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(sub_bus1);
struct platform_device sub_bus2 = {
.name = "sub_bus2",
.id = -1,
.dev.bus = &my_bus_type,
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(sub_bus2);
static int __init my_bus_init(void)
{
int error;
platform_bus_type_init(&my_bus_type);
error = bus_register(&my_bus_type);
if (error)
return error;
error = platform_device_register(&sub_bus1);
if (error)
goto fail_sub_bus1;
error = platform_device_register(&sub_bus2);
if (error)
goto fail_sub_bus2;
return error;
fail_sub_bus2:
platform_device_unregister(&sub_bus1);
fail_sub_bus2:
bus_unregister(&my_bus_type);
return error;
}
postcore_initcall(my_bus_init);
EXPORT_SYMBOL_CPY(my_bus_init);
/drivers/my_driver.c
static struct platform_driver my_driver = {
.driver = {
.name = "my-driver",
.owner = THIS_MODULE,
.bus = &my_bus_type,
},
};
/somewhere/my_device.c
static struct platform_device my_device = {
.name = "my-device",
.id = -1,
.dev.bus = &my_bus_type,
.dev.parent = &sub_bus_1.dev,
};
Notice that for a device / driver, only 3 lines were added to
switch from the platform bus to the new my_bus. This is
especially valuable if we consider supporting a legacy SOCs
and new SOCs where the same driver is used, but may need to
be on either the platform bus or the new my_bus. The above
code then becomes:
(possibly in a header)
#ifdef CONFIG_MY_BUS
#define MY_BUS_TYPE &my_bus_type
#else
#define MY_BUS_TYPE NULL
#endif
/drivers/my_driver.c
static struct platform_driver my_driver = {
.driver = {
.name = "my-driver",
.owner = THIS_MODULE,
.bus = MY_BUS_TYPE,
},
};
Which will allow the same driver to easily to used on either
the platform bus or the newly defined bus type.
This will build a device tree that mirrors the actual configuration:
/sys/bus
|-- my_bus
| |-- devices
| | |-- sub_bus1 -> ../../../devices/platform/sub_bus1
| | |-- sub_bus2 -> ../../../devices/platform/sub_bus2
| | |-- my-device -> ../../../devices/platform/sub_bus1/my-device
| |-- drivers
| | |-- my-driver
I believe this to be a fairly elegant and simple solution to the
problem, but humbly RFC
