dm: allow setting driver_data before/during bind

2016-05-27T02:48:31+00:00

This will allow a driver's bind function to use the driver data. One
example is the Tegra186 GPIO driver, which instantiates child devices
for each of its GPIO ports, yet supports two different HW instances each
with a different set of ports, and identified by the udevice_id .data
field.

dm: Remove device_probe_child()

2016-01-29T04:01:23+00:00

This function is not used as the use case for it did not eventuate. Remove
it to avoid confusion.

dm: core: allow device_bind() to not return a device pointer

2015-08-31T13:57:29+00:00

This is useful when we want to bind a device, but do not need the
pointer to the device.

dm: drop CONFIG_DM_DEVICE_REMOVE from uncmd list

2015-08-18T17:46:04+00:00

We do not want to compile the DM remove code for SPL.  Currently,
we undef it in include/config_uncmd_spl.h (for C files) and in
scripts/Makefile.uncmd_spl (for Makefiles).  This is really ugly.

This commit demonstrates how we can deprecate those two files.

Use $(SPL_) for the entry in the Makfile and CONFIG_IS_ENABLED()
in C files.

devres: make Devres optional with CONFIG_DEVRES

2015-08-06T13:44:29+00:00

Currently, Devres requires additional 16 byte for each allocation,
which is not so insignificant in some cases.

Add CONFIG_DEVRES to make this framework optional.
If the option is disabled, devres functions fall back to
non-managed variants.  For example, devres_alloc() to kzalloc(),
devm_kmalloc() to kmalloc(), etc.

Because devres_head is also surrounded by an ifdef conditional,
there is no memory overhead when CONFIG_DEVRES is disabled.

devres: introduce Devres (Managed Device Resource) framework

2015-08-06T13:44:29+00:00

In U-Boot's driver model, memory is basically allocated and freed
in the core framework.  So, low level drivers generally only have
to specify the size of needed memory with .priv_auto_alloc_size,
.platdata_auto_alloc_size, etc.  Nevertheless, some drivers still
need to allocate/free memory on their own in case they cannot
statically know the necessary memory size.  So, I believe it is
reasonable enough to port Devres into U-boot.

Devres, which originates in Linux, manages device resources for each
device and automatically releases them on driver detach.  With devres,
device resources are guaranteed to be freed whether initialization
fails half-way or the device gets detached.

The basic idea is totally the same to that of Linux, but I tweaked
it a bit so that it fits in U-Boot's driver model.

In U-Boot, drivers are activated in two steps: binding and probing.
Binding puts a driver and a device together.  It is just data
manipulation on the system memory, so nothing has happened on the
hardware device at this moment.  When the device is really used, it
is probed.  Probing initializes the real hardware device to make it
really ready for use.

So, the resources acquired during the probing process must be freed
when the device is removed.  Likewise, what has been allocated in
binding should be released when the device is unbound.  The struct
devres has a member "probe" to remember when the resource was
allocated.

CONFIG_DEBUG_DEVRES is also supported for easier debugging.
If enabled, debug messages are printed each time a resource is
allocated/freed.

dm: Support address translation for simple-bus

2015-08-06T13:44:28+00:00

The 'ranges' property can be used to specify a translation from the system
address to the bus address. Add support for this using the dev_get_addr()
function, which devices should use to find their address.

dm: Export device_remove_children / device_unbind_children

These functions are useful to remove all children from an usb bus before
rescanning the bus. Give them a better name and export them.

dm: core: Convert driver_bind() to use const

The driver is not modified by driver model, so update driver_bind() to
recognise that.
