Up until now driver model has not been used for any type of bus. Buses have some unique properties and needs, so we cannot claim that driver model can cover all the common cases unless we have converted a bus over to driver model.
SPI is a reasonable choice for this next step. It has a fairly simple API and not too many dependencies. The main one is SPI flash so we may as well convert that also. Since the boards I test with have cros_ec I have also included that, for SPI only. The technique used is make use of driver model's supported data structures to hold information currently kept by each subsystem in a private data structure. Since 'struct spi_slave' relates to the slave device on the bus it is stored in the 'parent' data with each child device of the bus. Since 'struct spi_flash' is a standard interface used for each SPI flash driver, it is stored in the SPI FLash uclass's private data for each device. New defines are created to enable driver model for each subsystem. These are: CONFIG_DM_SPI CONFIG_DM_SPI_FLASH CONFIG_DM_CROS_EC This allows us to move some boards and drivers to driver model, while leaving others behind. A 'big bang' conversion of everything to driver model, event at a subsystem level, is never going to work. There is some cost in changing the uclass interface after it is created, so if you have limited time, please spend it reviewing the uclass interfaces in spi.h and spi_flash.h. These need to be supported by each driver, so changing them later may involve changing multiple drivers. To assist with the conversion of other SPI drivers, a README file is added to walk through the process. As always, driver model patches are available at u-boot-dm.git branch 'working'. Changes in v2: - Add new patch to fix README merge error - Adjust binding to avoid Linux-specific mentions - Use 'bus' instead of 'dev' to make the API clearer - Fix code nits from Daniel Schwierzeck - Add missing comments for struct spi_slave - Fix comment on 'slave' parameter to match the parameter name - Fix a typo in the commit message - Add spi.h header to dfu_sf.c and some renesas boards - Correct sandbox's xfer() method signature - Use 'bus' instead of 'dev' to make the API clearer - Update for changes to exynos driver - Fix typos reported by Jagannadha Sutradharudu Teki - Add additional debug() statements - Use 'bus' instead of 'dev' to distinguish bus from slave - Adjust xfer() method for new API - Create a 'spi.bin' file for the SPI tests Simon Glass (30): dm: Fix repeated comment in README sandbox: Convert SPI flash emulation to use sf_params sandbox: config: Enable all SPI flash chips sandbox: dts: Add a SPI device and cros_ec device dm: spi: Move cmd device code into its own function spi: Add brackets and tidy defines in spi.h dm: spi: Add a uclass for SPI dm: sandbox: Add a SPI emulation uclass dm: Remove spi_init() from board_r.c when using driver model dm: Add spi.h header to a few files dm: spi: Adjust cmd_spi to work with driver model dm: sandbox: spi: Move to driver model dm: spi: Add documentation on how to convert over SPI drivers dm: spi: Rename soft_spi.c to soft_spi_legacy.c dm: spi: Remove SPI_INIT feature dm: spi: Add soft_spi implementation dm: exynos: Convert SPI to driver model exynos: universal_c210: Move to driver model soft_spi sf: Add an empty entry to the parameter list sf: Tidy up public and private header files spi: Use error return value in sf_ops dm: sf: Add a uclass for SPI flash dm: Convert spi_flash_probe() and 'sf probe' to use driver model dm: sf: sandbox: Convert SPI flash driver to driver model dm: exynos: config: Use driver model for SPI flash dm: spi: Add tests dm: sf: Add tests for SPI flash dm: cros_ec: Add support for driver model dm: sandbox: cros_ec: Move sandbox cros_ec to driver module dm: exynos: cros_ec: Move cros_ec_spi to driver model README | 5 +- arch/arm/dts/exynos4210-universal_c210.dts | 13 + arch/arm/dts/exynos5250-snow.dts | 8 + arch/arm/dts/exynos5420-peach-pit.dts | 1 + arch/sandbox/dts/sandbox.dts | 26 ++ arch/sandbox/include/asm/spi.h | 13 - arch/sandbox/include/asm/state.h | 2 +- board/buffalo/lsxl/lsxl.c | 3 +- board/renesas/sh7752evb/sh7752evb.c | 1 + board/renesas/sh7753evb/sh7753evb.c | 1 + board/renesas/sh7757lcr/sh7757lcr.c | 1 + board/samsung/common/board.c | 3 - board/samsung/universal_c210/universal.c | 52 --- common/board_r.c | 2 +- common/cmd_sf.c | 24 + common/cmd_spi.c | 73 +++- common/cros_ec.c | 30 ++ common/env_sf.c | 1 + common/exports.c | 4 +- doc/device-tree-bindings/mtd/spi/spi-flash.txt | 25 ++ doc/device-tree-bindings/spi/soft-spi.txt | 32 ++ doc/driver-model/spi-howto.txt | 583 +++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/dfu/dfu_sf.c | 1 + drivers/misc/cros_ec.c | 122 +++++- drivers/misc/cros_ec_sandbox.c | 99 ++++- drivers/misc/cros_ec_spi.c | 68 ++- drivers/mtd/spi/Makefile | 7 +- drivers/mtd/spi/ramtron.c | 1 + drivers/mtd/spi/sandbox.c | 438 +++++++++++++------ drivers/mtd/spi/sf-uclass.c | 63 +++ drivers/mtd/spi/sf_internal.h | 67 ++- drivers/mtd/spi/sf_params.c | 2 + drivers/mtd/spi/sf_probe.c | 153 +++++-- drivers/mtd/spi/spi_spl_load.c | 1 + drivers/spi/Makefile | 8 +- drivers/spi/exynos_spi.c | 518 ++++++++-------------- drivers/spi/sandbox_spi.c | 198 +++------ drivers/spi/soft_spi.c | 227 ++++++---- drivers/spi/soft_spi_legacy.c | 176 ++++++++ drivers/spi/spi-emul-uclass.c | 15 + drivers/spi/spi-uclass.c | 252 +++++++++++ include/configs/exynos-common.h | 2 + include/configs/peach-pit.h | 1 + include/configs/s5pc210_universal.h | 12 +- include/configs/sacsng.h | 1 - include/configs/sandbox.h | 13 +- include/configs/zipitz2.h | 1 - include/cros_ec.h | 27 +- include/dm/uclass-id.h | 4 + include/spi.h | 194 +++++++- include/spi_flash.h | 127 +++--- test/dm/Makefile | 2 + test/dm/sf.c | 43 ++ test/dm/spi.c | 47 ++ test/dm/test-dm.sh | 2 + test/dm/test.dts | 17 +- 56 files changed, 2902 insertions(+), 910 deletions(-) create mode 100644 doc/device-tree-bindings/mtd/spi/spi-flash.txt create mode 100644 doc/device-tree-bindings/spi/soft-spi.txt create mode 100644 doc/driver-model/spi-howto.txt create mode 100644 drivers/mtd/spi/sf-uclass.c create mode 100644 drivers/spi/soft_spi_legacy.c create mode 100644 drivers/spi/spi-emul-uclass.c create mode 100644 drivers/spi/spi-uclass.c create mode 100644 test/dm/sf.c create mode 100644 test/dm/spi.c -- 2.1.0.rc2.206.gedb03e5 _______________________________________________ U-Boot mailing list U-Boot@lists.denx.de http://lists.denx.de/mailman/listinfo/u-boot
