dm: treewide: Rename ofdata_to_platdata() to of_to_plat() 2020-12-13T23:51:09+00:00 Simon Glass sjg@chromium.org 2020-12-03T23:55:21+00:00 d1998a9fde0a917d6496299f6a97b6bccfdc6724 This name is far too long. Rename it to remove the 'data' bits. This makes it consistent with the platdata->plat rename. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>

dm: treewide: Rename 'platdata' variables to just 'plat' 2020-12-13T23:51:08+00:00 Simon Glass sjg@chromium.org 2020-12-03T23:55:18+00:00 caa4daa2ae3dc0a3e516addea5772c9af76abcb0 We use 'priv' for private data but often use 'platdata' for platform data. We can't really use 'pdata' since that is ambiguous (it could mean private or platform data). Rename some of the latter variables to end with 'plat' for consistency.

dm: treewide: Rename auto_alloc_size members to be shorter 2020-12-13T15:00:25+00:00 Simon Glass sjg@chromium.org 2020-12-03T23:55:17+00:00 41575d8e4c334df148c4cdd7c40cc825dc0fcaa1 This construct is quite long-winded. In earlier days it made some sense since auto-allocation was a strange concept. But with driver model now used pretty universally, we can shorten this to 'auto'. This reduces verbosity and makes it easier to read. Coincidentally it also ensures that every declaration is on one line, thus making dtoc's job easier. Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>

doc: net: Rewrite network driver documentation 2020-03-09T23:11:24+00:00 Andre Przywara andre.przywara@arm.com 2019-11-25T01:32:15+00:00 21e4ee3c9cbbcd639ebad1bb811788804047096f doc/README.drivers.eth seems like a good source for understanding U-Boot's network subsystem, but is only talking about legacy network drivers. This is particularly sad as proper documentation would help in porting drivers over to the driver model. Rewrite the document to describe network drivers in the new driver model world. Most driver callbacks/methods are almost identical in their semantic, but recv() differs in some important details. Also keep some parts of the original text at the end, to help understanding old drivers. Add some hints on how to port drivers over. This also uses the opportunity to reformat the document in reST, on the way moving it into doc/driver-model and adding it into the structure there.
