I favor your idea of event notification to decouple subsystems from the core block layer. > I am thinking of: > > enum dm_event_t { > DMEVT_PROBE, > DMEVT_POST_PROBE, > ... > }; > > struct dm_event { > enum dm_event_t type; > union { > // add data for different event types in here > } data; > } > > int (*dm_handler_t)(void *ctx, struct dm_event *event); > > int dm_register(enum dm_event_t evtype, dm_handler_t func, void *ctx) > > int dm_notify(struct udevice *dev, enum dm_event_t type, void *data); > > Then the code below becomes: > > dm_notify(struct udevice *dev, DMEVT_POST_PROBE, NULL); > > the implementation of which will call the handler. > > If you like I could create an impl of the above as a separate patch > for discussion. Yes, please.
