Subject: Re: Linux-3.14-rc2: Order of serial node compatibles in DTS
files.

Regardless of whether .type = "serial" gets removed, it seems wrong for
of_match_node() to accept a .type-only match (or .name, or anything else
that doesn't involve .compatible) before it accepts a compatible match
other than the first in the compatible property.
Right, I thought about it and came to the same conclusion. I sent a
patch a second ago to prefer .compatible != NULL matches over those
with .compatible == NULL.
Would be great if Stephen can re-test that. If it solves the issue, I
can send a patch tomorrow.
Done.
But, the Interrupt Controller (MPIC)
goes AWOL and it is down hill from there.
The MPIC is specified in the DTS as:
mpic: pic@40000 {
interrupt-controller;
#address-cells = <0>;
#interrupt-cells = <2>;
reg = <0x40000 0x40000>;
compatible = "chrp,open-pic";
device_type = "open-pic";
big-endian;
};
The board support file has the standard mechanism for allocating
the PIC:
struct mpic *mpic;
mpic = mpic_alloc(NULL, 0, 0, 0, 256, " OpenPIC ");
BUG_ON(mpic == NULL);
mpic_init(mpic);
I checked for damage in applying the patch and it has applied
correctly.
Hmm, I did a mistake in the patch:
- while (m->name[0] || m->type[0]) {
+ while (m->compatible[0] || m->name[0] || m->type[0]) {
for the second added match. Otherwise, the matches are not
evaluated down to the sentinel but the loop quits on the first
match table entry without .name and .type set.
