The at24 driver allows to register I2C EEPROM chips using different vendor and devices, but the I2C subsystem does not take the vendor into account when matching using the I2C table since it only has device entries. But when matching using an OF table, both the vendor and device has to be taken into account so the driver defines only a set of compatible strings using the "atmel" vendor as a generic fallback for compatible I2C devices. So add this generic fallback to the device node compatible string to make the device to match the driver using the OF device ID table. Signed-off-by: Javier Martinez Canillas <redacted> --- Changes in v5: - Only replace atmel variant but keep other EEPROM vendors (Geert Uytterhoeven). Changes in v4: - Only use the atmel manufacturer in the compatible string instead of keeping the deprecated ones (Rob Herring). Changes in v3: None Changes in v2: None arch/arm/boot/dts/uniphier-pro4-ace.dts | 2 +- arch/arm/boot/dts/uniphier-pro4-sanji.dts | 2 +- arch/arm/boot/dts/uniphier-pxs2-gentil.dts | 2 +- 3 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)Why didn't you touch arch/arm/boot/dts/uniphier-ref-daughter.dtsi ?Because the compatible string "microchip,24lc128" used by the I2C EEPROM node on that DTS is not supported by the drivers/misc/eeprom/at24.c driver (in fact the only occurrence for 24lc128 I see is in that DTS). Maybe is a typo and it should be "microchip,24c128" instead ?
I do not think so. I consulted a board developer. I also see 24LC128 on Microchip web site: http://www.microchip.com/wwwproducts/en/24LC128 -- Best Regards Masahiro Yamada -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
