This syscon-reboot driver currently has a default priority of 128 too. I could live with a higher default priority for the syscon-reboot driver, in fact I proposed that in the discussion of v1 of that patch: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/11/28/484 IMHO, this priority might make sense for most cases, I guess that dedicated "syscon" capabilities are usually better suited as a reboot source than watchdog. If dt, then the question which arises: If there are different capabilities to reset/reboot a whole system, how do we reflect which is the best suited one in dt? -- Stefan > >> Default will be little endian mode, 32 bit access only. >> >> Examples: >> diff --git a/drivers/power/reset/syscon-reboot.c b/drivers/power/reset/syscon-reboot.c >> index 815b901..3060d6b 100644 >> --- a/drivers/power/reset/syscon-reboot.c >> +++ b/drivers/power/reset/syscon-reboot.c >> @@ -67,8 +67,11 @@ static int syscon_reboot_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) >> if (of_property_read_u32(pdev->dev.of_node, "mask", &ctx->mask)) >> return -EINVAL; >> >> - ctx->restart_handler.notifier_call = syscon_restart_handle; >> ctx->restart_handler.priority = 128; >> + of_property_read_u32(pdev->dev.of_node, "priority", >> + &ctx->restart_handler.priority); >> + >> + ctx->restart_handler.notifier_call = syscon_restart_handle; >> err = register_restart_handler(&ctx->restart_handler); >> if (err) >> dev_err(dev, "can't register restart notifier (err=%d)\n", err); >> -- >> 2.1.3 >> >> -- >> To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in >> the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org >> More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html >> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
