This looks hacky. If 'CFG_IND_WR_CMD_MASK | CFG_IND_CMD_DONE_MASK'
should
be set then it should be part of the second argument. From the macro
'CFG_IND_ADDR_SET' the first argument should be more like the
current value
present in the register right? I feel the macro (CFG_IND_ADDR_SET)
is not
used in the way it is intended to.


The macro XXX_SET is intended to update an field within the register.
The update field is returned. The first assignment lines are setting
another field. Those two lines can be written as:

cmd = 0;
cmd |= CFG_IND_WR_CMD_MASK;            ==> Set the CMD bit
cmd |= CFG_IND_CMD_DONE_MASK;        ==> Set the DONE bit
cmd = CFG_IND_ADDR_SET(cmd, addr);    ===> Set the field ADDR


#define  CFG_IND_ADDR_SET(dst, src) \
                 (((dst) & ~0x003ffff0) | (((u32)(src)<<4) &
0x003ffff0))

 From this macro the first argument should be the present value in that
register. Here you reset the address bits and write the new address
bits.

Yes.. This is correct. I am clearing x number of bit and then set new
value.

IMO the first argument should be the value in 'csr_base +
indirect_cmd_reg'.
So it resets the address bits in 'csr_base + indirect_cmd_reg' and write
down the new address bits.

Yes.. The above code does just that. In addition, I am also setting
the bits CFG_IND_WR_CMD_MASK and CFG_IND_CMD_DONE_MASK with the two
previous statement. Think of the code flow as follow:

val = readl(some void * address); /* read the register */

Where are you reading the register in your code (before CFG_IND_ADDR_SET)?
val = XXXX_SET(val, 0x1);            /* set bit 0  - assuming XXXX set
bit 0 only */
If you want to set other bits (other than address) don't use
CFG_IND_ADDR_SET macro. That looks hacky to me.

huh.. looked it again and I think only the readl is missing. If you can add that, it should be fine.

How about something like this

val = readl(csr_base + indirect_cmd_reg);
val = CFG_IND_ADDR_SET(val, addr);
val |= CFG_IND_WR_CMD_MASK | CFG_IND_CMD_DONE_MASK;
writel(val, csr_base + indirect_cmd_reg);
