Hi Julia, any luck on this?
I was trying to improve the parser, but it seems that my improvements don't have a sufficient effect so I will try your suggestion of just seding out the offending code. julia

Overview: * Reorganizes chip data definitions * Enables features landed in these patches: dt-bindings: power: supply: bq27xxx: Add monitored-battery documentation power: supply: bq27xxx: Add chip data memory read/write support power: supply: bq27xxx: Add power_supply_battery_info support * Supports the following chips (only BQ27425 is active) BQ27500, 545, 425, 421, 441, 621 Changes in v3: * BQ27425 tested; workaround minor chip bug * Dropped driver_version * Fixed dbg_dupes logic for .props & .dm_regs * Dropped two props array dupes Changes in v2: * Added di->opts flags for remaining chip features * Commented out untested bq27xxx_dm_regs parameters * Changed dbg_dupes to run only once Notes on v1: * Not fully tested (hence RFC tag)Thanks, full series queued. -- SebastianAnyway, I've not got the time to fight these changes anymore, but at very least could you drop 4/5, it's static analysis code made into a runtime check built into a kernel driver, if not at least add my nacked-by. :)Since it's not critical at all and nobody depends on it, I dropped 4/5 for now. I agree, that checking it at runtime is not nice. On the other hand I do think a duplication check makes sense. Doing a static check should be possible, but I have no idea how to implement this (without much effort). I suspect Coccinelle can do it, so I added Julia. For reference this is the runtime check: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/9918953/The data structures being checked start here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sre/linux-power-supply.git/tree/drivers/power/supply/bq27xxx_battery.c?h=for-next#n138 And are aggregated here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sre/linux-power-supply.git/tree/drivers/power/supply/bq27xxx_battery.c?h=for-next#n743I worked a bit on this, but unfortunately there is a major parsing problem, and most of the definitions are ignored. Specifically, the definitions of the regs variables are interspersed with eg: #define bq27510g1_regs bq27500_regsYou can transform the macros with sed to either of: static u8 *bq27510g1_regs = 0 // skip comparison if x == 0 static u8 bq27510g1_regs[BQ27XXX_REG_MAX] = { 0xFF } // skip comparison if x[0] == 0xff Does that help?Not quite, because it's really a list of variable declarations, like int a, b, c, d; The following could be fine: *bq27510g1_regs = 0,i forgot about the static u8 at the top of the array set. But yes, just drop static u8 from either of the alternatives I gave.
