2015-10-26mfd: core: redo ACPI matching of the children devicesAndy Shevchenko
There is at least one board on the market, i.e. Intel Galileo Gen2, that uses _ADR to distinguish the devices under one actual device. Due to this we have to improve the quirk in the MFD core to handle that board. Acked-by: Rafael J.

2015-06-19ACPI: Constify ACPI device IDs in documentationMathias Krause
ACPI device ID arrays normally don't need to be written to as they're only ever read. The common usage -- embedding pointers to acpi_device_id arrays in other data structures -- reference them as 'const', e.g. as in struct acpi_driver / acpi_scan_handler / device_driver. The matchers are taking const pointers, too. So it's only natural, to propose using const arrays. Change the documentation accordingly.

2014-09-26mfd: Add ACPI supportMika Westerberg
If an MFD device is backed by ACPI namespace, we should allow subdevice drivers to access their corresponding ACPI companion devices through normal means (e.g using ACPI_COMPANION()). This patch adds such support to the MFD core. If the MFD parent device does not specify any ACPI _HID/_CID for the child device, the child device will share the parent ACPI companion device. Otherwise the child device will be assigned with the corresponding ACPI companion, if found in the namespace below the parent.

2013-08-23i2c: move OF helpers into the coreWolfram Sang
I2C of helpers used to live in of_i2c.c but experience (from SPI) shows that it is much cleaner to have this in the core. This also removes a circular dependency between the helpers and the core, and so we can finally register child nodes in the core instead of doing this manually in each driver. So, fix the drivers and documentation, too. Signed-off-by: Wolfram Sang <wsa@the-dreams.de>

2013-04-15dma: acpi-dma: introduce ACPI DMA helpersAndy Shevchenko
There is a new generic API to get a DMA channel for a slave device (commit 9a6cecc8 "dmaengine: add helper function to request a slave DMA channel"). In similar fashion to the DT case (commit aa3da644 "of: Add generic device tree DMA helpers") we introduce helpers to the DMAC drivers which are enumerated by ACPI. The proposed extension provides the following API calls: acpi_dma_controller_register(), devm_acpi_dma_controller_register() acpi_dma_controller_free(), devm_acpi_dma_controller_free() acpi_dma_simple_xlate() acpi_dma_request_slave_chan_by_index() acpi_dma_request_slave_chan_by_name() The first two should be used, for example, at probe() and remove() of the corresponding DMAC driver. At the register stage the DMAC driver supplies a custom xlate() function to translate a struct dma_spec into struct dma_chan. Accordingly to the ACPI Fixed DMA resource specification the only two pieces of information the slave device has are the channel id and the request line (slave id). Those two are represented by struct dma_spec. The acpi_dma_request_slave_chan_by_index() provides access to the specifix FixedDMA resource by its index. Whereas dma_request_slave_channel() takes a string parameter to identify the DMA resources required by the slave device. To make a slave device driver work with both DeviceTree and ACPI enumeration a simple convention is established: "tx" corresponds to the index 0 and "rx" to the index 1. In case of robust configuration the slave device driver unfortunately needs to call acpi_dma_request_slave_chan_by_index() directly. Additionally the patch provides "managed" version of the register/free pair i.e. devm_acpi_dma_controller_register() and devm_acpi_dma_controller_free(). Usually, the driver uses only devm_acpi_dma_controller_register().

2013-04-12gpiolib-acpi: introduce acpi_get_gpio_by_index() helperMika Westerberg
Instead of open-coding ACPI GPIO resource lookup in each driver, we provide a helper function analogous to Device Tree version that allows drivers to specify which GPIO resource they are interested (using an index to the GPIO resources). The function then finds out the correct resource, translates the ACPI GPIO number to the corresponding Linux GPIO number and returns that.

2013-01-03Documentation: remove __dev* attributes.Greg Kroah-Hartman
CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As a result, the __dev* markings need to be removed. This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, __devinitconst, and __devexit from the kernel documentation. Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.
