<content type='text'>
It is useful to have helper function just to get the number of cache
levels for a given logical cpu. We can obtain the same by just checking
the level at which the last cache is present. This patch adds support
to find the level of the last cache for a given cpu.

It will be used on ARM64 platform where the device tree provides the
information for the additional non-architected/transparent/external
last level caches that are not integrated with the processors.

This patch add of overlay notifications.

When DT overlays are being added, some drivers/subsystems
need to see device tree overlays before the changes go into
the live tree.

This is distinct from reconfig notifiers that are
post-apply or post-remove and which issue very granular
notifications without providing access to the context
of a whole overlay.

The following 4 notificatons are issued:
  OF_OVERLAY_PRE_APPLY
  OF_OVERLAY_POST_APPLY
  OF_OVERLAY_PRE_REMOVE
  OF_OVERLAY_POST_REMOVE

In the case of pre-apply notification, if the notifier
returns error, the overlay will be rejected.

This patch exports two functions for registering/unregistering
notifications:
  of_overlay_notifier_register(struct notifier_block *nb)
  of_overlay_notifier_unregister(struct notifier_block *nb)

The of_mutex is held during these notifications. The
notification data includes pointers to the overlay target
and the overlay:

struct of_overlay_notify_data {
       struct device_node *overlay;
       struct device_node *target;
};

<title>of: Add array read functions with min/max size limits</title>

<id>a67e9472da423ec47a3586920b526ebaedf25fc3</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a new set of array reading functions that take a minimum and
maximum size limit and will fail if the property size is not within
the size limits. This makes it more convenient for drivers that
use variable-size DT arrays which must be bounded at both ends -
data must be at least N entries but must not overflow the array
it is being copied into. It is also more efficient than making this
functionality out of existing public functions and avoids duplication.

The existing array functions have been left in the API, since there
are a very large number of clients of those functions and their
existing functionality is still useful. This avoids turning a small
API improvement into a major kernel rework.

The old functions have been turned into mininmal static inlines calling
the new functions. The old functions had no upper limit on the actual
size of the dts entry, to preserve this functionality rather than keeping
two near-identical implementations, if the new function is called with
max=0 there is no limit on the size of the dts entry but only the min
number of elements are read.

This provides an equivalent of of_fdt_match() for non-flat trees.

This is more practical than matching an array of of_device_id structs
when converting a bunch of existing users of of_fdt_match().

Pull the clockevents/clocksource tree from Daniel Lezcano:

  - Convert the clocksource-probe init functions to return a value in order to
    prepare the consolidation of the drivers using the DT. It is a big patchset
    but went through 01.org (kbuild bot), linux next and kernel-ci (continuous
    integration) (Daniel Lezcano)

  - Fix a bad error handling by returning the right value for cadence_ttc
    (Christophe Jaillet)

  - Fix typo in the Kconfig for the Samsung pwm (Alexandre Belloni)

  - Change functions to static for armada-370-xp and digicolor (Ben Dooks)

  - Add support for the rk3399 SoC timer by adding bindings and a slight
    change in the base address. Take the opportunity to add the DYNIRQ flag
    (Huang Tao)

  - Fix endian accessors for the Samsung pwm timer (Matthew Leach)

  - Add Oxford Semiconductor RPS Dual Timer driver (Neil Armstrong)

  - Add a kernel parameter to swich on/off the event stream feature of the arch
    arm timer (Will Deacon)

<title>of: Add a new macro to declare_of for one parameter function returning a value</title>
<updated>2016-06-28T08:19:17+00:00</updated>
<author>
<name>Daniel Lezcano</name>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.toradex.cn/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?id=c35d9292fee0474a1a037f75b0b85af32200c76f'/>
<id>c35d9292fee0474a1a037f75b0b85af32200c76f</id>
<content type='text'>
The macro OF_DECLARE_1 expect a void (*func)(struct device_node *) while the
OF_DECLARE_2 expect a int (*func)(struct device_node *, struct device_node *).

The second one allows to pass an init function returning a value, which make
possible to call the functions in the table and check the return value in order
to catch at a higher level the errors and handle them from there instead of
doing a panic in each driver (well at least this is the case for the clkevt).

Unfortunately the OF_DECLARE_1 does not allow that and that lead to some code
duplication and crappyness in the drivers.

The OF_DECLARE_1 is used by all the clk drivers and the clocksource/clockevent
drivers. It is not possible to do the change in one shot as we have to change
all the init functions.

The OF_DECLARE_2 specifies an init function prototype with two parameters with
the node and its parent. The latter won't be used, ever, in the timer drivers.

Introduce a OF_DECLARE_1_RET macro to be used, and hopefully we can smoothly
and iteratively change the users of OF_DECLARE_1 to use the new macro instead.

The macro OF_DECLARE_1 expect a void (*func)(struct device_node *) while the
OF_DECLARE_2 expect a int (*func)(struct device_node *, struct device_node *).

The second one allows to pass an init function returning a value, which make
possible to call the functions in the table and check the return value in order
to catch at a higher level the errors and handle them from there instead of
doing a panic in each driver (well at least this is the case for the clkevt).

For device nodes in both DT and ACPI, it possible to have named
child nodes which contain properties (an existing example being
gpio-leds). This adds a function to find a named child node for
a device which can be used by drivers for property retrieval.

For DT data node name matching, of_node_cmp() and similar functions
are made available outside of CONFIG_OF block so the new function
can reference these for DT and non-DT builds.

For ACPI data node name matching, a helper function is also added
which returns false if CONFIG_ACPI is not set, otherwise it
performs a string comparison on the data node name. This avoids
using the acpi_data_node struct for non CONFIG_ACPI builds,
which would otherwise cause a build failure.
