Subject: [PATCH v4,0/4] drivers: uio: new driver uio_fsl_85xx_cache_sram


Changes since v1:
* Addressed comments from Greg K-H
* Moved kfree(info->name) into uio_info_free_internal()

Changes since v2:
* Drop the patch that modifies Kconfigs of arch/powerpc/platforms
and modified the sequence of patches:
01:dropped, 02->03, 03->02, 04->01, 05->04
* Addressed comments from Greg, Scott and Christophe
* Use "uiomem->internal_addr" as if condition for sram memory free,
and memset the uiomem entry
* Modified of_match_table make the driver apart from Cache-Sram HW info
which belong to the HW level driver fsl_85xx_cache_sram to match
* Use roundup_pow_of_two for align calc(really learned a lot from Christophe)
* Remove useless clear block of uiomem entries.
* Use UIO_INFO_VER micro for info->version, and define it as
"devicetree,pseudo", meaning this is pseudo device and probed from
device tree configuration
* Select FSL_85XX_CACHE_SRAM rather than depends on it

Changes since v3:
* Addressed comments from Christophe(use devm_xxx memory alloc interfaces)

Subject: [PATCH v4,3/4] powerpc: sysdev: fix compile warning for fsl_85xx_cache_sram

Function instantiate_cache_sram should not be linked into the init
section for its caller mpc85xx_l2ctlr_of_probe is none-__init.

Warning information:
MODPOST vmlinux.o
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text+0x1e540): Section mismatch in reference from the function mpc85xx_l2ctlr_of_probe() to the function .init.text:instantiate_cache_sram()
The function mpc85xx_l2ctlr_of_probe() references
the function __init instantiate_cache_sram().
This is often because mpc85xx_l2ctlr_of_probe lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of instantiate_cache_sram is wrong.

What does this mean? Changing a number into a non-obvious string (Why
"pseudo"? Why does the UIO user care that the config came from the device
tree?) just to avoid setting off Greg's version number autoresponse isn't
really helping anything.

Greg's comment notwithstanding, I really don't think this belongs in the
device tree (and if I do get overruled on that point, it at least needs a
binding document). Let me try to come up with a patch for dynamic allocation.

Form is <vendor>,<device> and "uio" is not a vendor (and never will be).

Agreed. "UIO" bindings have long been rejected.

Should have been something like "fsl,mpc85xx-cache-sram-uio", and if it is
to be defined with module parameters, this would be user defined.
Anyway, <vendor>,<device> should always be used.

No. The point is that you wouldn't be configuring this with the device tree
at all.

As I mentioned before, this is not currently meaningful for us, and maybe the better
way is to set it optionally for uio, but it belongs to uio core, which is a framework for
different kind of drivers or devices, but not only for us. So I guess this is not a thing
troubles and arguing about this is really helpless.

It was to fit for the unbinding requriement. And I mentioned what if I want to create
more than one device and each owns multiple uiomaps?
Devicetree is definitely better choice to solve the problem and make the driver more
convenient for users to use. Pseudo device is a device and a device. Or else device
tree should be hardware-only-devicetree.

The point is why we left the better choice and write a plenty of redundant codes
to parse the module parameters?

Further more, I don't think there is enough reason for the lower driver mpc85xx cache-sram
to restrict other from using it in a way of module param or dynamic allocation with ioctl or so.

UIO is there and all these parts cooperate well to make the cache-sram more useful and better
resolve user requirement.

I will update the patch with the diff applied in v5.

Thanks,
Wenhu

Wait, why not? Don't force people to use module parameters, that is
crazy. DT describes the hardware involved, if someone wants to bind to
a specific range of memory, as described by DT, why can't they do so?

I can understand not liking the name "uio" in a dt tree, but there's no
reason that DT can not describe what a driver binds to here.

Remember, module parameters are NEVER the answer, this isn't the 1990's
anymore.

Yes, DT describes the hardware, and as I've said a couple times already, this
isn't hardware description.

I'm not forcing people to use module parameters. That was a least-effort
suggestion to avoid abusing the DT. I later said I'd try to come up with a
patch that allocates regions dynamically (and most likely doesn't use UIO at
all).

The DT already describes this hardware, and there is already code that binds
to it. This patch is trying to add a second node for it with configuration.

Hi, Scott, Greg,
Seems like no balance here. How about I implement a driver of uio including
the l2ctrl and cache_sram related implementations?
And this way, the driver would be a hardware level driver and targeted for uio.

No, duplicating the code makes no sense whatsoever. Please just wait a bit
and I'll send a patch to have the existing driver expose a dynamic allocation
interface to userspace.
