commit: dm: core: Enable optional use of fdt_translate_address()
enables device's bus/child address translation method, depending on bus 'ranges' property and including child 'reg' property. This change makes impossible to decode the 'reg' for node with '#size-cells' equal to 0.
Such case is possible by the specification and is also used in U-Boot, e.g. by I2C uclass or S5P GPIO - the last one is broken at present.
Can you please explain the problem you're seeing in more detail? Without any context, my initial reaction is that this is simply a bug somewhere. That bug should be fixed, rather than introducing new APIs to hide the problem.
For this purpose this patch set introduces new core function: fdt_addr_t dev_get_reg(struct udevice *dev) which returns the 'reg' value in the same way as previously dev_get_addr().
This fixes s5p gpio driver and booting issue on few Exynos based boards:
- Trats2
- Odroid U3/X2
Looking at arch/arm/dts/exynos4412-trats2.dts, I see the following:
i2c@138d0000 { samsung,i2c-sda-delay = <100>; samsung,i2c-slave-addr = <0x10>; samsung,i2c-max-bus-freq = <100000>; status = "okay";
max77686_pmic@09 { compatible = "maxim,max77686"; interrupts = <7 0>; reg = <0x09 0 0>;
Is that the node you're having problems with? If so, I believe this may simply be due to invalid DT content. In exynos4.dtsi, that i2c node is defined as:
i2c@138d0000 { #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>;
Thus, any reg property in a child of that node must only contain a single cell (the sum of #address-cells and #size-cells in the parent). Does fixing the DT so it's valid solve your issue at all?
