[PATCH 0/3] IIO: st_sensors_i2c: improve device enumeration

[Nikolaus Voss]

When trying to instantiate a st_accel_i2c device from an ACPI based
system, I ran into some problems:

For my device, there is no ACPI match table entry, so rather than
creating /allocating a new ACPI HID for the device, I wanted to use an
existing DT table compatible entry via creating an ACPI_DT_NAMESPACE_HID
/PRP0001 HID ACPI entry (see Documentation/acpi/enumeration.txt).

This did not work because st_accel_i2c.c bails out if there is a ACPI
node but no ACPI table match instead of looking for a match from one of
the fallback mechanisms (patch 1).

Patch 2 removes an error message when a ACPI node exists but no table
entry is found (this doesn't need to be fatal because of the fallback).

Patch 3 syncs the strings in the I2C device table (which is used by the
I2C core for fallback matching) with the DT compatible strings, so a
PRP0001 entry can use the same compatible strings as a corresponding
DT entry. As far as I can see, the old I2C table strings aren't used
in mainline, so renaming them should be safe.

[PATCH 1/3] IIO: st_accel_i2c.c: Use fallback if DT/ACPI enum failed

[Nikolaus Voss]

Currently, the driver bails out if not explicitly referred to in
DT or ACPI tables. This prevents fallback mechanisms from coming
into effect, e.g. I2C device ID table match via DT or ACPI
PRP0001 HID. However DT/ACPI enum should take precedence over
the fallback, so evaluate that first.

Is the change to probe_new actually related to the rest of the change?

I can't immediately see why...  If not I would prefer that as a separate
change.

Well, it is, because the id table pointer of the old probe() is not 
used any more.

Hmm. Fair enough, kind of incidental cleanup rather than anything more.

[PATCH 2/3] IIO: st_sensors_i2c.c: Don't print error on failed ACPI match

[Nikolaus Voss]

If there is a ACPI node for a i2c device but HID/CID doesn't match, there
could still be a ACPI_DT_NAMESPACE_HID / PRP0001 HID entry which is
matched against the i2c device ID table, so don't print an error
message.

[PATCH 3/3] IIO: st_accel.h: sync DT and I2C device ID table strings

[Nikolaus Voss]

I2C device ID table strings should really match the DT compatible
strings (without the manufacturer prefix) to avoid confusion. This is
especially reasonable when using ACPI PRP0001 HID /DT compatibility
entries along with the DT compatible property in DSD which is
used as a modalias (with manufacturer prefix stripped off) by the ACPI
layer and thus as i2c_board_info->type by the I2C layer.

Nice to have I agree.  However, it's an ABI change as this is exposed
via
/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:\deviceN/name and is used by lots of scripts
etc to identify the device.  So we are stuck with it.

There is a reason we've kept this mess here for quite some time.

Ok, I feared there could be some reason ;-). Tell me, if you want me to 
respin anything...

I'm not sure I understand how ->probe_new() is supposed to work
against i2c_id_table, but I don't care for legacy platform data
anyway.

What I would like to point to is device_get_match_data() API which
should simplify / unify the case how you get driver data.

This driver doesn't need any driver data/ platform_data beyond the 
i2c_id_table name (which has already been matched when probe()/ 
probe_new() is called), so strictly neither of_match_table nor 
apci_match_table would be necessary, because i2c DT/ ACPI enumeration also 
matches against i2c_table names.

But thanks for the hint ;-).

Looking at the code I see still calls to acpi_match_data() and of_match_data().
Instead nowadays better to use device_get_match_data().

i2c_id_table should be removed from the module device table at least
(though you may continue to use it internally in the driver).

That's my understanding how it should be done.

You are completely right, sorry. I rewrote and reposted the patch.

As I understand it, it is still necessary to make 
i2c_register_board_info() work.
