[PATCH v2 1/3] mfd: core: Make a best effort attempt to match devices with the correct of_nodes

[PATCH v2 1/3] mfd: core: Make a best effort attempt to match devices with the correct of_nodes

[Lee Jones]

Currently, when a child platform device (sometimes referred to as a
sub-device) is registered via the Multi-Functional Device (MFD) API,
the framework attempts to match the newly registered platform device
with its associated Device Tree (OF) node.  Until now, the device has
been allocated the first node found with an identical OF compatible
string.  Unfortunately, if there are, say for example '3' devices
which are to be handled by the same driver and therefore have the same
compatible string, each of them will be allocated a pointer to the
*first* node.

An example Device Tree entry might look like this:

  mfd_of_test {
          compatible = "mfd,of-test-parent";
          #address-cells = <0x02>;
          #size-cells = <0x02>;

          child@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa {
                  compatible = "mfd,of-test-child";
                  reg = <0xaaaaaaaa 0xaaaaaaaa 0 0x11>,
                        <0xbbbbbbbb 0xbbbbbbbb 0 0x22>;
          };

          child@cccccccc {
                  compatible = "mfd,of-test-child";
                  reg = <0x00000000 0xcccccccc 0 0x33>;
          };

          child@dddddddd00000000 {
                  compatible = "mfd,of-test-child";
                  reg = <0xdddddddd 0x00000000 0 0x44>;
          };
  };

When used with example sub-device registration like this:

  static const struct mfd_cell mfd_of_test_cell[] = {
        OF_MFD_CELL("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 0, "mfd,of-test-child"),
        OF_MFD_CELL("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 1, "mfd,of-test-child"),
        OF_MFD_CELL("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 2, "mfd,of-test-child")
  };

... the current implementation will result in all devices being allocated
the first OF node found containing a matching compatible string:

  [0.712511] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.0: Probing platform device: 0
  [0.712710] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.0: Using OF node: child@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
  [0.713033] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.1: Probing platform device: 1
  [0.713381] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.1: Using OF node: child@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
  [0.713691] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.2: Probing platform device: 2
  [0.713889] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.2: Using OF node: child@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

After this patch each device will be allocated a unique OF node:

  [0.712511] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.0: Probing platform device: 0
  [0.712710] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.0: Using OF node: child@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
  [0.713033] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.1: Probing platform device: 1
  [0.713381] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.1: Using OF node: child@cccccccc
  [0.713691] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.2: Probing platform device: 2
  [0.713889] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.2: Using OF node: child@dddddddd00000000

Which is fine if all OF nodes are identical.  However if we wish to
apply an attribute to particular device, we really need to ensure the
correct OF node will be associated with the device containing the
correct address.  We accomplish this by matching the device's address
expressed in DT with one provided during sub-device registration.
Like this:

  static const struct mfd_cell mfd_of_test_cell[] = {
        OF_MFD_CELL_REG("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 1, "mfd,of-test-child", 0xdddddddd00000000),
        OF_MFD_CELL_REG("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 2, "mfd,of-test-child", 0xaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa),
        OF_MFD_CELL_REG("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 3, "mfd,of-test-child", 0x00000000cccccccc)
  };

This will ensure a specific device (designated here using the
platform_ids; 1, 2 and 3) is matched with a particular OF node:

  [0.712511] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.0: Probing platform device: 0
  [0.712710] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.0: Using OF node: child@dddddddd00000000
  [0.713033] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.1: Probing platform device: 1
  [0.713381] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.1: Using OF node: child@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
  [0.713691] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.2: Probing platform device: 2
  [0.713889] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.2: Using OF node: child@cccccccc

This implementation is still not infallible, hence the mention of
"best effort" in the commit subject.  Since we have not *insisted* on
the existence of 'reg' properties (in some scenarios they just do not
make sense) and no device currently uses the new 'of_reg' attribute,
we have to make an on-the-fly judgement call whether to associate the
OF node anyway.  Which we do in cases where parent drivers haven't
specified a particular OF node to match to.  So there is a *slight*
possibility of the following result (note: the implementation here is
convoluted, but it shows you one means by which this process can
still break):

  /*
   * First entry will match to the first OF node with matching compatible
   * Second will fail, since the first took its OF node and is no longer available
   * Third will succeed
   */
  static const struct mfd_cell mfd_of_test_cell[] = {
        OF_MFD_CELL("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 1, "mfd,of-test-child"),
	OF_MFD_CELL_REG("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 2, "mfd,of-test-child", 0xaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa),
        OF_MFD_CELL_REG("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 3, "mfd,of-test-child", 0x00000000cccccccc)
  };

The result:

  [0.753869] mfd-of-test-parent mfd_of_test: Registering 3 devices
  [0.756597] mfd-of-test-child: Failed to locate of_node [id: 2]
  [0.759999] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.1: Probing platform device: 1
  [0.760314] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.1: Using OF node: child@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
  [0.760908] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.2: Probing platform device: 2
  [0.761183] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.2: No OF node associated with this device
  [0.761621] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.3: Probing platform device: 3
  [0.761899] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.3: Using OF node: child@cccccccc

We could code around this with some pre-parsing semantics, but the
added complexity required to cover each and every corner-case is not
justified.  Merely patching the current failing (via this patch) is
already working with some pretty small corner-cases.  Other issues
should be patched in the parent drivers which can be achieved simply
by implementing OF_MFD_CELL_REG().

Changelog:

v1 => v2:
  * Simply return -EAGAIN if node is already in use
  * Allow for valid of_reg=0 by introducing use_of_reg boolean flag
  * Split helpers out into separate patch

Re: [PATCH v2 1/3] mfd: core: Make a best effort attempt to match devices with the correct of_nodes

[Frank Rowand]

Hi Lee,

I'm looking at 5.8-rc1.

The only use of OF_MFD_CELL() where the same compatible is specified
for multiple elements of a struct mfd_cell array is for compatible
"stericsson,ab8500-pwm" in drivers/mfd/ab8500-core.c:

        OF_MFD_CELL("ab8500-pwm",
                    NULL, NULL, 0, 1, "stericsson,ab8500-pwm"),
        OF_MFD_CELL("ab8500-pwm",
                    NULL, NULL, 0, 2, "stericsson,ab8500-pwm"),
        OF_MFD_CELL("ab8500-pwm",
                    NULL, NULL, 0, 3, "stericsson,ab8500-pwm"),

The only .dts or .dtsi files where I see compatible "stericsson,ab8500-pwm"
are:

   arch/arm/boot/dts/ste-ab8500.dtsi
   arch/arm/boot/dts/ste-ab8505.dtsi

These two .dtsi files only have a single node with this compatible.
Chasing back to .dts and .dtsi files that include these two .dtsi
files, I see no case where there are multiple nodes with this
compatible.

So it looks to me like there is no .dts in mainline that is providing
the three "stericsson,ab8500-pwm" nodes that drivers/mfd/ab8500-core.c
is expecting.  No case that there are multiple mfd child nodes where
mfd_add_device() would assign the first of n child nodes with the
same compatible to multiple devices.

So it appears to me that drivers/mfd/ab8500-core.c is currently broken.
Am I missing something here?

If I am correct, then either drivers/mfd/ab8500-core.c or
ste-ab8500.dtsi and ste-ab8505.dtsi need to be fixed.

Moving forward, your proposed OF_MFD_CELL_REG() method seems a good
approach (I have not completely read the actual code in the patch yet
though).

The following mfd_of_test_cell[] looks like a bug to me.  For a given
compatible value, either reg is required or is not allowed.

One could add validation code to mfd_add_devices(), which would scan the
parameter "cells", checking for multiple array elements with the same
compatible value where one of the elements does not have .use_of_reg
set.  This seems to be a pain to program and not needed, because the
validation process, using the binding definition, would detect the
problem in the .dts source file, because either the required reg
property would be missing or the not to be specified reg property exists.
Whether reg is required or not allowed is based on the compatible value.

If there are existing corner cases, I did not search the source tree
sufficiently.  What are the current corner cases?

Your analysis is correct.

Although it's not "broken", it just works when it really shouldn't.

I will be fixing the 'ab8500-pwm' case in due course.

OK, if I'm not overlooking anything, that is good news.

Existing .dts source files only have one "ab8500-pwm" child.  They already
work correcly.

Create a new compatible for the case of multiple children.  In my example
I will add "-mc" (multiple children) to the existing compatible.  There
is likely a better name, but this lets me provide an example.

Modify drivers/mfd/ab8500-core.c to use the new compatible, and new .dts
source files with multiple children use the new compatible:

         OF_MFD_CELL("ab8500-pwm",
                     NULL, NULL, 0, 0, "stericsson,ab8500-pwm"),

         OF_MFD_CELL_REG("ab8500-pwm-mc",
                         NULL, NULL, 0, 0, "stericsson,ab8500-pwm", 0),
         OF_MFD_CELL_REG("ab8500-pwm-mc",
                         NULL, NULL, 0, 1, "stericsson,ab8500-pwm", 1),
         OF_MFD_CELL_REG("ab8500-pwm-mc",
                         NULL, NULL, 0, 2, "stericsson,ab8500-pwm", 2),

The "OF_MFD_CELL" entry is the existing entry, which will handle current
.dts source files.  The new "OF_MFD_CELL_REG" entries will handle new
.dts source files.

And of course the patch that creates OF_MFD_CELL_REG() needs to precede
this change.

I would remove the fallback code in the existing patch that tries to
handle an incorrect binding.  Just error out if the binding is not
used properly.

I thought that one of the points of this patch series was to add a
"reg" property to any mfd child that was described by the
OF_MFD_CELL_REG() macro.

And that was meant to fix the problem where multiple indistinguishable
children existed.  The only instance I found of that (using the
weak search on OF_MFD_CELL()) was of compatible "stericsson,ab8500-pwm"
in drivers/mfd/ab8500-core.c.  You agreed with my email that
reported that.

So I thought that drivers/mfd/ab8500-core.c would be modified to
replace the multiple instances of compatible "stericsson,ab8500-pwm"
in OF_MFD_CELL() with OF_MFD_CELL_REG().

This is another problem with the patch series: there is no user
of OF_MFD_CELL_REG().  Please add one to the series.

OK, I was wrong about "silent".  There is a warning:
   pr_warn("%s: Failed to locate of_node [id: %d]\n",

> The

If the device probes and functions as usual without the child of_node,
then why does the node have any properties (for the cases of
arch/arm/boot/dts/ste-ab8500.dtsi and arch/arm/boot/dts/ste-ab8505.dtsi
the properties "clocks" and "clock-names").

Digging through that leads to yet another related question, or actually
sort of the same question.  Why do the child nodes with compatible
"stericsson,ab8500-pwm" have the properties "clocks" and "clock-names"
since the binding Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/ab8500.txt
does not list them?

But yes or no to my solution #2 (with some slight changes to
make it better (more gracious handling of the detected error) as
discussed elsewhere in the email thread)?

The OF_MFD_CELL_REG() macro didn't exist until this patch-set.

There are currently no users.

No, I agreed with you that there is a current problem with
"stericsson,ab8500-pwm", as identified by Michael.  I didn't actually
know about this issue until *after* drafting this patch-set.  To be
clear the "stericsson,ab8500-pwm" scenario is not the reason for this
set's existence.

Also, please forget about the OF_MFD_* macros, they are totally
agnostic to this effort.  The only relevance they have here is the
addition of 1 extra macro which *could* be used to provide the 'reg'

That is not my vision.  There is no need for "stericsson,ab8500-pwm"
to have 'reg' properties as far as I see it.

That's not a problem with this patch-set, it's a problem with your
understanding of this patch-set. :)

As far as I know, there aren't any current users who would benefit
from this work.  Instead, it is designed to provide future submitters
with another tool to help them link their child devices to the correct
OF nodes.  That's not to say that current users can't and won't
benefit from this.  Just that they are not the target audience.

Because DT is meant to describe the hardware, not the implementation.

DT does not know, or care that in our case most operations that happen
on the platform are passed back via an API to a central controlling
location.  Or that in reality, the OF node in this situation is
superfluous.

Can we please stop talking about the AB8500.  It doesn't have anything
to do with this series besides the fact that if it (this set) had
existed *before* 'ab8500-pwm' was OF enabled, it wouldn't now be
wonky.

If you want to talk about the AB8500, please start a new thread.

Please see "[0]" above!

AFAICT your solution #2 involves bombing out *all* devices if there is
a duplicate compatible with no 'reg' property value.  This is a)
over-kill and b) not an error, as I mentioned:

I could have sworn that I had replied with a solution to this issue.  So I
searched and searched and searched my emails in the thread.  And checked my
drafts email folder.  Then finally realized I had made a stupid mistake.

I did reply about this, but I had put my "-Frank" signature at the end
of a comment much higher in the email.  So of course I expect you stopped
reading at that point and never saw my answer.  My apologies!!!

The email in question is:

  https://lore.kernel.org/linux-devicetree/eae9cc00-e67a-cb6a-37c2-f2235782ed77@gmail.com/

and what I wrote at this point in that email is:

  You can modify more extensively than my simple example, changing
  mfd_add_device() to more gracefully handle an EINVAL returned by
  mfd_match_of_node_to_dev().

Thus a modification to my suggestion #2 to make it _not_ fail
everything.

I didn't really flesh out all that "more gracefully handle" means.
Among other things, it could include a pr_warn() that provides
a fairly specific possible cause of the problem (eg the corner
case mentioned near the end of the patch 1/3 header that shows
mixing OF_MFD_CELL() and OF_MFD_CELL_REG() for the same compatible
value.  It may be tricky coming up with good phrasing in a pr_warn()
that describes the generic issue instead of the specific example.

Again, sorry.

Maybe the way I wrote that took too many shortcuts.  Let me re-phrase.

I thought that one of the points of this patch set was to add the
of_reg and use_of_reg fields to struct mfd_cell.  The expected use
of the of_reg and use_of_reg fields was to allow the presence of a
"reg" property in a devicetree mfd child node to be used to match
specific child nodes to specific elements of the mfd_add_devices()
cell array parameter, with the match occurring when the array elements
are processed (currently in mfd_match_of_node_to_dev(), which is
called by mfd_add_device()).

The key point being the matching specific devicetree mfd child nodes
to specific cell array members.

The OF_MFD_CELL_REG() is simply a helper macro related to the above.

> 
> There are currently no users.

Yes.  And as I pointed out elsewhere, I would expect a user of new
functionality to be added as part of a patch series that adds the
new functionality.  Or at least a mention of a specific plan to
use the functionality.

I had been assuming that the intended user was the one use case that
I had identified, and that you let me continue to assume was the one
existing use case.

So now I know that drivers/mfd/ab8500-core.c is totally unrelated to
this patch series, and not the intended user of the new functionality.

My point was that my search for the data that comprised the "cell"
parameter passed to mfd_add_devices() was inadequate, because I
was searching on OF_MFD_CELL() instead of mfd_add_devices.  I was
admitting that part of my ignorance was because of this poor search.

I was searching for where the problem case actually occurred in the
kernel.  Maybe you did not realize that I have been thinking that
the only place where the problem case occurred was the single case
I found with this insufficient search method.

In some or many or all (I don't know, I'm not going to go back
and search for all of them) you can probably replace mention
of the OF_MFD_* with either my search for input data to
mfd_add_devices() _or_ a concise reference to the new of_reg
and use_of_reg fields of struct mfd_cell and the use of the
new fields.

Where is the problem that the patch set was intended to fix?

In that case the binding document for the mfd child node with
compatible "stericsson,ab8500-pwm" should be updated to state
that if there are multiple such child nodes with the same parent
then they must contain exactly the same set of properties and
values.

Maybe not your problem, I have no idea who is responsible for
that update.

However,

I have already responded above about whether there should be a user
of OF_MFD_CELL_REG() in the patch set.

> 
> As far as I know, there aren't any current users who would benefit
> from this work.

Sigh.  From the original patch 1/3 header:

  "Currently, when a child platform device (sometimes referred to as a
  sub-device) is registered via the Multi-Functional Device (MFD) API,
  the framework attempts to match the newly registered platform device
  with its associated Device Tree (OF) node.  Until now, the device has
  been allocated the first node found with an identical OF compatible
  string.  Unfortunately, if there are, say for example '3' devices
  which are to be handled by the same driver and therefore have the same
  compatible string, each of them will be allocated a pointer to the
  *first* node."

This implies that there is a current instance where multiple devices
are "allocated a pointer to the *first* node".

If the patch header had instead said something like:

  adding the ability for an mfd device to have multiple children
  with the same value of "compatible" property

then my whole approach to trying to analyze and understand the
patch series would have been entirely different.  One of my
early replies described my attempt to find the code that was
encountering the problem that the patch series claimed to fix.
One of my concerns was handling potential compatibility issues
with existing FDTs.

And my understanding of your response to my analysis and investigation
was that I had indeed found a problem case in existing code.  But now
you tell me that the driver and mfd child node compatible value that
I identified are not at all a problem.

> Instead, it is designed to provide future submitters
> with another tool to help them link their child devices to the correct
> OF nodes.

And that is what I was looking for above in this reply, looking for
a user of the new functionality in the patch series, where I stated:

   "Or at least a mention of a specific plan to
   use the functionality."

OK.  I now understand that you don't expect the new functionality of
the of_reg and use_of_reg fields of struct mfd_cell to be used by
in relation to "ab8500-pwm" and drivers/mfd/ab8500-core.c.  I will
drop them from the discussion.

As I mentioned above, I set you up to have this misunderstanding by
a mistake in one of my earlier emails.  So now that I have pointed

Sorry for the very long response, but it seemed we were operating
under some different understandings and I hope I have clarified some
things.

The current solution already provides a warning if we fail to match a
device with its requested OF node.  It's also semantically incorrect
to error out just because a node with the same compatible string is
already taken, since there maybe another one coming up (which will be
found on the next iteration post return of -EAGAIN).

Providing a more accurate warning describing *why* a node wasn't found
it also non-trivial, for the same reasons as it's hard to do during a
pre-validation routine.

There have been 2 such use-cases in recent months.

The most recent is Michael's (CC'ed) use-case.

Moreover, this patch-set actually fixes something that has been known
to be broken (actually not broken per-say, just 'less featureful') for
a number of years.  Since the original support was authored, only 2
potential issues have arisen.  The first time we deemed it a problem
too complex to fix (I can't, for the life of me find that thread, but
I'm pretty sure it involved Robin from Arm [which is why he is
CC'ed]).  Michael's use-case is the second.  This time I thought I'd
have a stab at fixing (or at least bettering) it.

Firstly, the problem is present, as described in the commit message.
It is *not correct to re-match an OF node with multiple devices.  Even
if there wasn't a current *real* user, this patch is still the right
thing to do, as it makes the situation *sooo* much better.

However, there is a prospective user also [1].

This is the case for all OF nodes, not just 'ab8500-pwm'.

No need, as it's indented for *future* users.

That said, once applied, I will have a look around for some more
potential current issues/users.  My plan it so also start converting
users to other OF_MFD_* macros.

Again, I'm sorry that you took that path, but my replies have only
conveyed the facts as I see them.  The snippet that you quote above
was and is still an accurate and precise description of the issue with
the current matching code.

Maybe now that you have identified your issue, we can move on.

One more time; this patch-set addresses an present in-kernel issue.

The current code does it's best to match device with OF node, but
there are corner-cases where the matching semantics are not
sufficient.  Even if there weren't any prospective users (but there
are), improving the current matching logic is something that *must* be
seen as a positive step in the right direction.

If this code was already present when 'ab8500-pwm' was OF enabled, it
would have identified the potential issue which you (and Michael)
correctly identified with missing OF nodes.

Explained above, but the LT;DR is that it's not correct.

I don't agree with you, I think my solution is better.  Even if I
prefer my solution, I find your solution to be good enough.

So I am dropping my specific objection to returning -EAGAIN from
mfd_match_of_node_to_dev() when the node has previously been
allocated to a device.

I still don't see how it could work, but please feel free to submit a
subsequent patch and we can discuss it on its own merits.

Great.  Thanks for taking an interest.

Does this mean I can apply your Reviewed-by?

No, please do not.  I don't want to give the patch that strong
of an endorsement.

Instead of the above comment, suggest something like instead (I have not properly

I'll split the difference and make it more clear, thanks.

As you mentioned elsewhere in this thread, this series "fixes" the
problem related to the "stericsson,ab8500-pwm" compatible.

I know, I said I would drop discussion of that compatible, but bear
with me for a second.  :-)

The "problem" is that the devices for multiple mfd child nodes with
the same compatible value of "stericsson,ab8500-pwm" will all have
a pointer to the first child node.  At the moment the same child
of_node being used by more than one device does not cause any
incorrect behavior.

Just in case the driver for "stericsson,ab8500-pwm" is modified
in a way that the child of_node needs to be distinct for each
device, and that changes gets back ported, it would be useful
to have Fixes: tags for this patch series.

So, at your discretion (and I'll let you worry about the correct
Fixes: tag format), this series fixes:

bad76991d7847b7877ae797cc79745d82ffd9120 mfd: Register ab8500 devices using the newly DT:ed MFD API

This patch isn't actually broken.

The issue is the DTB, which [0] addresses.

Now, I'm confused; because this patch doesn't use the reg property
but a different node name. I'd actually prefer this for any MFD
driver which has multiple nodes of the same compatible string. See
my reasoning here [1]. But until now, no one has responded. Thus,
I'd rather see a OF_MFD_CELL_NAME() which matches the node name
instead of the OF_MFD_CELL_REG() macro.

This would also circumvent the fact that the unit-address has one
number space. Eg. it is not possible to have:

mfd {
   compatible = "mfd,compatible";

   gpio@0 {
     reg = <0>;
   };
   gpio@1 {
     reg = <1>;
   };
   pwm@0 {
     reg = <0>;
   };
};

Although Rob mentioned to maybe relax that, but I sill fail to see
the advantage to have an arbitrary reg property instead of a unique
node name.

The fix mentioned above is orthogonal to this set.

The *only* reason for the differing node names there is to circumvent
the following DTC warnings:

arch/arm/boot/dts/ste-ab8500.dtsi:210.16-214.7: ERROR (duplicate_node_names): /soc/prcmu@80157000/ab8500/ab8500-pwm: Duplicate node name

I don't have a strong opinion either way.

We can *also* add node name matching if Rob deems it fit.

Where do you see a use of the reg property? You already expressed
that you see exposing the internal offset as a hack:

  "Placing "internal offsets" into the 'reg' property is a hack." [1]

So what are you putting into reg instead? Rob suggested "anything"
documented in the hardware manual. But isn't this just also something
we make up and especially for the MFD driver. Thus IMHO it doesn't
qualify as a unit-address, which - as far as I understand it - is
unique on the parent bus. To repeat my argument, its not a defined
thing like an I2C address.

The vast proportion of devices do and will have 'reg' properties.

So our argument in the past (although this is going back the best part
of 10 years) has always been that; if devices are different, there is
almost always a documented (in the H/W manual/datasheet) way to
differentiate/address them.  Whether that's a physical address, an
offset, a bank ID, an I2C/SPI address or whatever.

As to not being able to use that address/ID due to the DT rules
surrounding address space as per the example in your previous email,
well that's a rule specific to DT and makes little sense in some real
world cases (such as, dare I say it, the AB8500).

You'll have to take the aforementioned point and the point about using
node names instead of 'reg' properties up with Rob and the other
interested DT folk.

Again, I'm happy to extend that functionality if it becomes acceptable
practice.

[PATCH v2 1/3] mfd: core: Make a best effort attempt to match devices with the correct of_nodes

[Lee Jones]

Currently, when a child platform device (sometimes referred to as a
sub-device) is registered via the Multi-Functional Device (MFD) API,
the framework attempts to match the newly registered platform device
with its associated Device Tree (OF) node.  Until now, the device has
been allocated the first node found with an identical OF compatible
string.  Unfortunately, if there are, say for example '3' devices
which are to be handled by the same driver and therefore have the same
compatible string, each of them will be allocated a pointer to the
*first* node.

An example Device Tree entry might look like this:

  mfd_of_test {
          compatible = "mfd,of-test-parent";
          #address-cells = <0x02>;
          #size-cells = <0x02>;

          child@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa {
                  compatible = "mfd,of-test-child";
                  reg = <0xaaaaaaaa 0xaaaaaaaa 0 0x11>,
                        <0xbbbbbbbb 0xbbbbbbbb 0 0x22>;
          };

          child@cccccccc {
                  compatible = "mfd,of-test-child";
                  reg = <0x00000000 0xcccccccc 0 0x33>;
          };

          child@dddddddd00000000 {
                  compatible = "mfd,of-test-child";
                  reg = <0xdddddddd 0x00000000 0 0x44>;
          };
  };

When used with example sub-device registration like this:

  static const struct mfd_cell mfd_of_test_cell[] = {
        OF_MFD_CELL("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 0, "mfd,of-test-child"),
        OF_MFD_CELL("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 1, "mfd,of-test-child"),
        OF_MFD_CELL("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 2, "mfd,of-test-child")
  };

... the current implementation will result in all devices being allocated
the first OF node found containing a matching compatible string:

  [0.712511] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.0: Probing platform device: 0
  [0.712710] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.0: Using OF node: child@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
  [0.713033] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.1: Probing platform device: 1
  [0.713381] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.1: Using OF node: child@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
  [0.713691] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.2: Probing platform device: 2
  [0.713889] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.2: Using OF node: child@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

After this patch each device will be allocated a unique OF node:

  [0.712511] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.0: Probing platform device: 0
  [0.712710] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.0: Using OF node: child@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
  [0.713033] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.1: Probing platform device: 1
  [0.713381] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.1: Using OF node: child@cccccccc
  [0.713691] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.2: Probing platform device: 2
  [0.713889] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.2: Using OF node: child@dddddddd00000000

Which is fine if all OF nodes are identical.  However if we wish to
apply an attribute to particular device, we really need to ensure the
correct OF node will be associated with the device containing the
correct address.  We accomplish this by matching the device's address
expressed in DT with one provided during sub-device registration.
Like this:

  static const struct mfd_cell mfd_of_test_cell[] = {
        OF_MFD_CELL_REG("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 1, "mfd,of-test-child", 0xdddddddd00000000),
        OF_MFD_CELL_REG("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 2, "mfd,of-test-child", 0xaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa),
        OF_MFD_CELL_REG("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 3, "mfd,of-test-child", 0x00000000cccccccc)
  };

This will ensure a specific device (designated here using the
platform_ids; 1, 2 and 3) is matched with a particular OF node:

  [0.712511] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.0: Probing platform device: 0
  [0.712710] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.0: Using OF node: child@dddddddd00000000
  [0.713033] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.1: Probing platform device: 1
  [0.713381] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.1: Using OF node: child@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
  [0.713691] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.2: Probing platform device: 2
  [0.713889] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.2: Using OF node: child@cccccccc

This implementation is still not infallible, hence the mention of
"best effort" in the commit subject.  Since we have not *insisted* on
the existence of 'reg' properties (in some scenarios they just do not
make sense) and no device currently uses the new 'of_reg' attribute,
we have to make an on-the-fly judgement call whether to associate the
OF node anyway.  Which we do in cases where parent drivers haven't
specified a particular OF node to match to.  So there is a *slight*
possibility of the following result (note: the implementation here is
convoluted, but it shows you one means by which this process can
still break):

  /*
   * First entry will match to the first OF node with matching compatible
   * Second will fail, since the first took its OF node and is no longer available
   * Third will succeed
   */
  static const struct mfd_cell mfd_of_test_cell[] = {
        OF_MFD_CELL("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 1, "mfd,of-test-child"),
	OF_MFD_CELL_REG("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 2, "mfd,of-test-child", 0xaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa),
        OF_MFD_CELL_REG("mfd-of-test-child", NULL, NULL, 0, 3, "mfd,of-test-child", 0x00000000cccccccc)
  };

The result:

  [0.753869] mfd-of-test-parent mfd_of_test: Registering 3 devices
  [0.756597] mfd-of-test-child: Failed to locate of_node [id: 2]
  [0.759999] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.1: Probing platform device: 1
  [0.760314] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.1: Using OF node: child@aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
  [0.760908] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.2: Probing platform device: 2
  [0.761183] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.2: No OF node associated with this device
  [0.761621] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.3: Probing platform device: 3
  [0.761899] mfd-of-test-child mfd-of-test-child.3: Using OF node: child@cccccccc

We could code around this with some pre-parsing semantics, but the
added complexity required to cover each and every corner-case is not
justified.  Merely patching the current failing (via this patch) is
already working with some pretty small corner-cases.  Other issues
should be patched in the parent drivers which can be achieved simply
by implementing OF_MFD_CELL_REG().
