Subject: [PATCH] of/pdt: allow DT device matching by fixing 'name' brokenness (v2)


Commit e2f2a93b changed dp->name from using the 'name' property to
using package-to-path. This fixed /proc/device-tree creation by
eliminating conflicts between names (the 'name' property provides
names like 'battery', whereas package-to-path provides names like
'/foo/bar/battery@0', which we stripped to 'battery@0'). However,
it also breaks of_device_id table matching.

The fix that we _really_ wanted was to keep dp->name based upon
the name property ('battery'), but based dp->full_name upon
package-to-path ('battery@0'). This patch does just that.

This also changes OLPC behavior to use the full result from
package-to-path for full_name, rather than stripping the directory
out. In practice, the strings end up being exactly the same; this
change saves time, code, and memory.

Note that this affects sparc by reverting dp->name back to what
sparc was originally doing (looking at the name property).

v2: combine two patches and revert of_pdt_node_name to original version.

It seems to me that of_pdt_build_full_name will still be missing the
'@<addr>' component on non-sparc non-olpc builds because it uses the
broken of_pdt_node_name(). That needs to be fixed too, even if there
are no current users (or removed).

Is dp->phandle not suitable here?

I still think it would be useful to remove the #if
defined(CONFIG_SPARC) from path_component_name, and it might be the
best way to solve my comment about broken of_pdt_node_name above.

The intent if for them to use the pkg2path hook. If
they can't use that, they'll need an architecture-specific way to
figure out the @<addr> component. It may even be possible for sparc
to use package-to-path; but either way, if an architecture doesn't
have package-to-path (OLPC and powerpc have it; I don't know about
sparc), and can't fake it, it'll need to do something special.

If the pkg2path hook isn't set and we're not sparc, we fall back to
dp->name. That sucks, but I don't know of a better way to do things.

path_component_name is filled in by build_path_component() in
sparc-land. It's very sparc-specific, and having path_component_name
around doesn't help us on other architectures if we don't know how to
fill it in.

This addresses one of my comments on v2; but it doesn't address the
comment that the broken implementation of of_pdt_node_name for
non-sparc still remains, or am I missing something?

Weird; that reply didn't show up in my inbox (but my mailer did

More that sucks, it is just plain *wrong*. :-)

so, to sum up, of_pdt_build_tree goes through the following process:

1) dp = of_pdt_create_node
- dp->name = of_pdt_get_one_property(node, "name"); /* name w/o addr */

2) (SPARC) dp->path_component_name = build_path_component(dp);
- format <node name>@<address>
- uses dp->name value
- not on OLPC

3) dp->full_name = of_pdt_build_full_name(dp)
- (SPARC) use dp->path_component_name
- (OLPC) depend on value from of_pdt_try_pkg2path(node);
- (others) fake it with an incorrect value?

Am I correct?

Faking it is clearly not acceptable. The solution is to *force* all
platforms to implement a method for obtaining the full path. That
means BUG() or WARN() if pkg2path is not populated, or if it returns
NULL. It also means no mucking about with of_pdt_try_pkg2path().
Call ops->pkg2path directly and complain loudly when it does not work.

I see two choices:
1) implement ops->pkg2path for SPARC, but back it with
build_path_component() instead of a call to OF
2) #ifdef of_pdt_build_full_name() to use the current behaviour for
SPARC, but call pkg2path for everyone else.

Actually, I'd like to see build_path_component() refactored to return
the full_name instead. It is trivial to get the path component from
the full name at any time, but it is not trivial to go the other
direction.... but that is probably more surgery than should be done in
this immediate bug-fix. I'm assuming a fix is necessary before 2.6.38
is finalized?

Also:
- returns only the node name, not the full path
- implemented differently depending upon bus type (see
pci_path_component/sbus_path_component/ebus_path_component/ambapp_path_component)
- sparc32 implemented differently versus sparc64

No.

(others) use of_pdt_try_pkg2path

The reason why we fall back to dp->name is because I don't know what
other architectures out there might not have package-to-path. I'm
perfectly fine with falling back to a WARN or BUG.

Either of these are fine, but I don't think they should be within the
scope of the proposed patch. I'd like to hear from Davem about whether
#1 is doable. Also note that ops are different for sparc32 and sparc64.

Again, this is Davem-land; I don't have a sparc machine to test any of
this with. The proposed patch is a bug fix that I'd like to see go in;
I'm perfectly happy to refactor the APIs after that.

Well, a fix only affects Daniel's work. It does, however, fix a bug
in sparc code. I don't know if that breaks anything in practice.

Regardless, in all cases the semantics are absolutely clear; all
platforms *must* have a reliable way of obtaining the full path and
the path_component_name. It it doesn't then it is fundamentally
broken.

Respin to fallback on WARN() and bail out. I'd be okay with merging a
patch that does that. Falling back to dp->name is absolutely incorrect.

I agree that API refinements can be deferred to 2.6.39.

Subject: [PATCH] of/pdt: allow DT device matching by fixing 'name' brokenness (v4)


Commit e2f2a93b changed dp->name from using the 'name' property to
using package-to-path. This fixed /proc/device-tree creation by
eliminating conflicts between names (the 'name' property provides
names like 'battery', whereas package-to-path provides names like
'/foo/bar/battery@0', which we stripped to 'battery@0'). However,
it also breaks of_device_id table matching.

The fix that we _really_ wanted was to keep dp->name based upon
the name property ('battery'), but based dp->full_name upon
package-to-path ('battery@0'). This patch does just that.

This also changes OLPC behavior to use the full result from
package-to-path for full_name, rather than stripping the directory
out. In practice, the strings end up being exactly the same; this
change saves time, code, and memory.

v2: combine two patches and revert of_pdt_node_name to original version
v3: use dp->phandle instead of passing around node
v4: warn/bail out for non-sparc archs if pkg2path is not set
