Subject: using the same regmap by multiple device drivers
Date: Wed, 29 Jun 2016 13:19:37 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <57740329.1080702@ti.com> (raw)
Hello,
I'm working on two drivers "crypto" and "hwrng", which use the same
hardware module and the same block of registers. Actually the drivers
don't need to access the same registers except several common ones.
Here is fragment of dts.
sa_subsys: subsys@1234000 {
compatible = "syscon";
reg = <0x1234000 0x1000>;
};
crypto@1234000 {
compatible = "ti,netcp-sa-crypto";
syscon-subsys = <&sa_subsys>;
clocks = <&clksa>;
.....
};
rng@1234000 {
compatible = "ti,keystone-rng";
syscon-subsys = <&sa_subsys>;
clocks = <&clksa>;
};
The both drivers use
regmap = syscon_regmap_lookup_by_phandle(pdev->dev.of_node,
"syscon-subsys");
to get pointers to "struct regmap".
Unfortunately I can get the first driver working only. When the second
driver tries to call regmap_read() kernel gives "Division by zero in
kernel" error.
Here is my question. Is that actually possible to use in regmap
framework the same registers in multiple different drivers?
Thank you,
-Vitaly
