The DT node full name is currently being used in regmap_config which in turn is used to create the regmap debugfs directories. This name however is not guaranteed to be unique and the regmap debugfs registration can fail in the cases where the syscon nodes have the same unit-address but are present in different DT node hierarchies. Replace this logic using the syscon reg resource address instead (inspired from logic used while creating platform devices) to ensure a unique name is given for each syscon.quoted
- syscon_config.name = of_node_full_name(np); + syscon_config.name = kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "%pOFn@%llx", np, + (u64)res.start);Explicit castings in printf() usually tell us that something is not okay.
Yes, I agree in general.
Yes, for resource_size_t we have %pa.
And that was the first thing I tried when doing v2, before moving away from it. This is not for a console printf statement, but is rather for the regmap debugfs name. Using a %pa adds the 0x and leading zeros in the debugfs name, when compared to the name before this patch. The typecast retains the current format, and replaces the unit-address without the leading 0s either. Introducing a local-variable to avoid the typecast is overkill.
On top of that, I would rather see %pfwn to avoid modification for other fwnode types.
Did you mean %pfwP? That can probably be handled when syscon code is updated to use fwnode API. regards Suman _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
