What I mean is like this: /* generic structure */ struct pci_host_bridge { int domain; int node; struct device *dev; struct pci_ops *ops; struct list_head resources; struct pci_bus *bus; /* filled in by core, not by arch */ ... /* other existing contents managed by core */ }; /* arm specific structure */ struct pci_sys_data { char io_res_name[12]; /* Bridge swizzling */ u8 (*swizzle)(struct pci_dev *, u8 *); /* IRQ mapping */ int (*map_irq)(const struct pci_dev *, u8, u8); /* Resource alignement requirements */ void (*add_bus)(struct pci_bus *bus); void (*remove_bus)(struct pci_bus *bus); void *private_data; /* platform controller private data */ /* not a pointer: */ struct pci_host_bridge bridge; }; static inline struct pci_sys_data *to_pci_sys_data(struct pci_host_bridge *bridge) { return container_of(bridge, struct pci_sys_data, bridge); } /* arm specific, driver specific structure */ struct tegra_pcie { void __iomem *pads; void __iomem *afi; struct clk *pex_clk; struct clk *afi_clk; struct clk *pll_e; struct clk *cml_clk; struct tegra_msi msi; struct list_head ports; unsigned int num_ports; struct pci_sys_data sysdata; }; static inline struct tegra_pcie *to_tegra_pcie(struct pci_sys_data *sysdata) { return container_of(sysdata, struct tegra_pcie, sysdata); } This mirrors how we treat devices: a pci_device has an embedded device, and so on, in other subsystems we can have multiple layers. In this example, the tegra pcie driver then allocates its own tegra_pcie structure, fills out the fields it needs, and registers it with the ARM architecture code, passing just the pci_sys_data pointer. That function in turn passes a pointer to the embedded pci_host_bridge down to the generic code. Ideally we should try to eliminate the architecture specific portion here, but that is a later step.
