Compatible property on /[EMAIL PROTECTED]/[EMAIL PROTECTED] is ohci-bigendian ohci-be mpc5200-ohci mpc5200-usb
device_type is "usb", model is "mpc5200-ohci". Although I worry about cluttering up the cleanup, it is probably just adding an "if property(big-endian) OR compatible(mpc5200-ohci)" to that small big-endian check there. I am currently moving on the assumption that the "correct" device tree for the Efika (notwithstanding the above) would be [EMAIL PROTECTED] { device-type = "usb-ohci" compatible = "mpc5200-ohci,mpc5200-usb-ohci" big-endian } Or some variation including all the relevant checked-for properties. I don't like the old "ohci-bigendian" and "ohci-be" properties. Picking out "ohci-bigendian" and "ohci-be" was someone's drunken idea, I'm sure, so I am happy to let them die a horrible death and never rear up ever again. Using mpc5200-ohci out is by far the safest idea, although it leaves in a rather platform-specific fix, I prefer singling out that platform and potentially causing nasty looks towards the direction of Genesi/bplan, than having ohci-bigendian continue to exist for the sake of it :D There is another solution; change the properties in the Linux device tree fixups, but I would loathe that solution as it adds yet another part of the kernel to track. Unfortunately the current device tree is a complete, stupid mess, a result of a bunch of guys not looking at the problem, and I have said this before (rant mode :) - I think device_type, compatible should report the KIND of device it is, and the model property should be used to pick out the particular quirks of the chipset. We could have had a nice system where "usb" is paired with compatible "ohci", and model is "mpc5200". No dashes or spaces or 10 strings to compare.. -- Matt Sealey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Genesi, Manager, Developer Relations Valentine Barshak wrote: > Grant Likely wrote: >> On 10/24/07, David Brownell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >>> On Wednesday 24 October 2007, Matt Sealey wrote: >>>> Can we just make sure real quickly that the changing of compatibles >>>> doesn't break existing, not-easily-flashable firmwares? >>> Yeah, I'm not keen on such breakage either... >> >> Add my voice to the chorus.
