Subject: [PATCH v4 1/3] module: add SCMI device table alias support
Date: Wed, 26 Aug 2026 12:27:32 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260826102734.31766-2-johannes.goede@oss.qualcomm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260826102734.31766-1-johannes.goede@oss.qualcomm.com>
From: Bjorn Andersson <bjorn.andersson@oss.qualcomm.com>
SCMI client drivers already describe their bus match data with
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(scmi, ...), but modpost does not know how to consume
SCMI device tables. As a result, SCMI modules do not get generated module
aliases from their id tables.
Move struct scmi_device_id to mod_devicetable.h so it has a fixed layout
visible to modpost, add the corresponding generated offsets and teach
file2alias to emit scmi:<protocol>:<name> aliases.
Use the same stable alias format for SCMI device uevents and sysfs
modaliases. The previous string included the instance-specific device
name, which is not useful for matching modules.

Changes in v4:
- Drop unused driver_data member from struct scmi_device_id (Uwe)
- Drop device-id/scmi.h include from mod_devicetable.h (Uwe)
- Add device-id/scmi.h to devicetable-offsets.c and file2alias.c (Uwe)
Changes in v3:
- Adjust for ad428f5811bd ("mod_devicetable.h: Split into per subsystem
headers")
- Add '\n' to modalias_show() output, matching other subsystems' modalias
Changes in v2:
- Drop #include <linux/mod_devicetable.h> from scmi_protocol.h
- Link to v1: https://patch.msgid.link/20260616-scmi-modalias-v1-0-662b8dd52ab2@oss.qualcomm.com
