Do aliases work in reverse? That is, if I have a pointer to a device node, can I look up its alias directly? Or do I have to scan the aliases node and do a comparison of each phandle, one at a time, until I find a match? And when I find a match, will I need to do sscanf() in order to extract the actual index value from the property? -- Timur Tabi Linux kernel developer at Freescale _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
