From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Grant Likely Subject: [RFC 0/3] of: Refactor device tree linked lists Date: Thu, 5 Jun 2014 16:43:38 +0100 Message-ID: <1401983021-13829-1-git-send-email-grant.likely@linaro.org> Return-path: Sender: devicetree-owner-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org To: devicetree-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org Cc: rob.herring-QSEj5FYQhm4dnm+yROfE0A@public.gmane.org List-Id: devicetree@vger.kernel.org I threw these patches together as part of getting the device_node lifecycle issues sorted out so that the overlay patches can be merged. It makes it possible to add and remove nodes without jumping through crazy hoops. I haven't yet decided if it is a good idea. It does increase the size of deviec_node by 2 pointers which increases the footprint, but it simplifies a lot of the code. Although, if I was really concerned about footprint I would be trying to get rid of the ->full_name string and just use the path component instead. The primary user of full_name is various printk format strings around the kernel and we could get the same behaviour using a %p variant. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
