[PATCH 0/2] stmac: add glue for NXP LPC18xx family

[Joachim Eastwood]

This small patch set adds support for using the stmmac on the NXP
LPC18xx/43xx Cortex-M3/4 MCU family and add binding documentation.

Base support for the family can be found here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=143016894704253&w=2

DTS changes will be posted once base support, clk support and
reset are upstream. All this has been posted on the relevant
lists and my hope is that it will make it into Linux 4.1.

Below is the boot log from the stmmac driver:

Any chance you could turn this around and do the probing in the normal
order, with a platform driver that registers to your compatible string
and calls into a common base module?

Unfortunately, something went wrong when we first started adding platform
specific hacks to the driver. I tried to fix it up back then, and IIRC
it was agreed that it should be changed but my patches for some reason
missed out on getting merged and the mistake propagated afterwards.

It should be fairly straightforward to split the probe function
into two and export a function that takes a device and a stmmac_of_data
pointer as arguments, and declare a module_platform_driver in your
code.

I can see what I can come up with.

Do you happen to have a link to these patches so I could take a look?

How about something like the patch below. All it does is to play a
little trick with the of_match_device in the dt config function and
export the probe/remove/pm stuff for the driver.

The dwmac-lpc18xx would then become something like this:

static const struct stmmac_of_data lpc18xx_dwmac_data = {
	.has_gmac = 1,
	.setup = lpc18xx_dwmac_setup,
	.init = lpc18xx_dwmac_init,
};

static const struct of_device_id lpc18xx_dwmac_match[] = {
	{ .compatible = "nxp,lpc1850-dwmac", .data = &lpc18xx_dwmac_data },
	{ }
};
MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(of, lpc18xx_dwmac_match);

static struct platform_driver lpc18xx_dwmac_driver = {
	.probe  = stmmac_pltfr_probe,
	.remove = stmmac_pltfr_remove,
	.driver = {
		.name           = "lpc18xx-dwmac",
		.pm             = &stmmac_pltfr_pm_ops,
		.of_match_table = lpc18xx_dwmac_match,
	},
};
module_platform_driver(lpc18xx_dwmac_driver);

All though this seem to work, stmmac_platform.c could benefit from
some refactoring. But this patch and then fixing the other DT users
could be a first step.

Joachim Eastwood

Sounds good, yes.

Ah, that is a nice trick to avoid passing the various match tables
from a lot of duplicated probe functions.

I wonder if we could generalize that for use by any driver and
introduce a common helper

void *of_platform_match_data(struct device *dev)
{
	struct of_device_id *id;

	if (!dev || !dev->of_node)
		return NULL;

	id = of_match_device(dev->driver->of_match_table, dev);
	if (!id)
		return NULL;

	return id->data;
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(of_platform_match_data);

I think that could save a few lines from many drivers, and it had not
occurred to me that we can take this shortcut.

The rest of your patch also looks great to me.

I realised that and posted kinda of a RFC to the devicetree list yesterday.

Almost the same as your proposal except for the dev pointer checking
and the name.

Great, I'll put together a new series of patches.

+* NXP LPC1850 GMAC ethernet controller
+
+This device is a platform glue layer for stmmac.
+Please see stmmac.txt for the other unchanged properties.
+
+Required properties:
+ - compatible:  Should contain "nxp,lpc1850-dwmac"
+
+Examples:
+
+mac: ethernet@40010000 {
+	compatible = "nxp,lpc1850-dwmac", "snps,dwmac-3.611", "snps,dwmac";

+	interrupt-names = "macirq";
+	clocks = <&ccu1 CLK_CPU_ETHERNET>;
+	clock-names = "stmmaceth";
+	resets = <&rgu 22>;
+	reset-names = "stmmaceth";
