Others have addressed the most salient points, but some general
corrections for your device tree..

device_type shouldn't be here.

You probably don't want cell-index.  cell-index should *only* be used
when there is some global register somewhere that's indexed by the
cell number.

Presumably 'reg' is different for each, as well.

You don't.  As Grant explains, use reg instead.

This code has actually changed in 2.6.25-rc1.  It is now
for_each_matching_node() and the call to of_match_node is no longer
necessary.

use 'reg' instead.  cell-index (and port-number for that matter) will
probably be going away in the near future.

Yes, this is a good approach too.

I don't know if that is possible to do in a one call, but maybe using the 
approach from mpc52xx_uart might help?

--clip--
for_each_node_by_type(np, "serial") {
if (!of_match_node(mpc52xx_uart_of_match, np))
continue;

/* Is a particular device number requested? */
devno = of_get_property(np, "port-number", NULL);
mpc52xx_uart_of_assign(of_node_get(np), devno ? *devno : -1);
}
--clip--

And change  serial->gpt, port-number to cell-index and add some logic to 
select the devices you want. Or if you wan't to do it a bit differently you 
could add a pseudo device outside the main tree like

mydev {
gpt-dev = <&the_gpt_dev>:
};

And get it that way. However I don't know if this is recommended approach, but 
I've used it for some simple stuff like binding gpt in PWM mode to 
framebuffer backlight, along with power-pin.

Please correct any mistakes you who know better.

Don't use find_and_map; it was a stupid API that I never should have written.

Instead, use for_each_compatible_node() or for_each_matching_node() to
iterate over them until you find the one with the correct reg address.

Then you can use of_iomap() to map the device registers.

> How do I specify the timer based on the cell-index?

Match on the reg property instead of cell-index; I'll probably be
dropping the cell-index property from future 5200 device trees because
it just ends up duplicating information already provided by reg.

Cheers,
g.

DTS question - MPC5200b

2008-02-12 Thread Nick
Hi,

I need some help.  I am trying to access timer 7 on the MPC5200B 
processor.  I have the DTS file setup like this

[EMAIL PROTECTED] {// General Purpose Timer
  device_type = "gpt";
compatible = "fsl,mpc5200b-gpt","fsl,mpc5200-gpt";
cell-index = <7>;
reg = <670 10>;
interrupts = <1 10 0>;
interrupt-parent = <&mpc5200_pic>;
};

I have timers 0 to 6 defined the same way except the cell-index reflects 
the timer number.

In my platform file where I am doing my board setup, I tried the  following.

timer7 = mpc52xx_find_and_map ("mpc5200b-gpt");

How do I specify the timer based on the cell-index?

Thanks

Nick
