Well, I'm assuming that the alias property names will follow the current convention of xxxxnn where xxxx is a name and nn is a number.

What do you want to use this for? As an alternative to cell-index or device-id for enumerating devices. The consensus from the '"cell-index" vs. "index" vs. no index in I2C device nodes' thread is that aliases are to be used to enumerate devices. -- Timur Tabi Linux kernel developer at Freescale _______________________________________________ Linuxppc-dev mailing list Linuxppc-dev@ozlabs.org https://ozlabs.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxppc-dev
