software node: Also support referencing non-constant software nodes

2025-12-22T12:32:22+00:00

Fwnode references are be implemented differently if referenced node is a software node. _Generic() is used to differentiate between the two cases but only const software nodes were present in the selection. Also add non-const software nodes.

software node: allow referencing firmware nodes

2025-11-20T15:51:48+00:00

At the moment software nodes can only reference other software nodes. This is a limitation for devices created, for instance, on the auxiliary bus with a dynamic software node attached which cannot reference devices the firmware node of which is "real" (as an OF node or otherwise). Make it possible for a software node to reference all firmware nodes in addition to static software nodes. To that end: add a second pointer to struct software_node_ref_args of type struct fwnode_handle. The core swnode code will first check the swnode pointer and if it's NULL, it will assume the fwnode pointer should be set. Software node graphs remain the same, as in: the remote endpoints still have to be software nodes.

device property: Add scoped fwnode child node iterators

2025-09-10T12:48:03+00:00

Add scoped versions of fwnode child node iterators that automatically handle reference counting cleanup using the __free() attribute: - fwnode_for_each_child_node_scoped() - fwnode_for_each_available_child_node_scoped() These macros follow the same pattern as existing scoped iterators in the kernel, ensuring fwnode references are automatically released when the iterator variable goes out of scope. This prevents resource leaks and eliminates the need for manual cleanup in error paths. The implementation mirrors the non-scoped variants but uses __free(fwnode_handle) for automatic resource management, providing a safer and more convenient interface for drivers iterating over firmware node children.

software node: Constify node_group in registration functions

2025-08-17T11:18:07+00:00

The software_node_register_node_group() and software_node_unregister_node_group() functions take in essence an array of pointers to software_node structs. Since the functions do not modify the array declare the argument as constant, so that static arrays can be declared as const and annotated as __initconst.

device property: Use tidy for_each_named_* macros

2025-07-01T10:31:37+00:00

Implementing if-conditions inside for_each_x() macros requires some thinking to avoid side effects in the calling code. Resulting code may look somewhat awkward, and there are couple of different ways it is usually done. Standardizing this to one way can help making it more obvious for a code reader and writer. The newly added for_each_if() is a way to achieve this. Use for_each_if() to make these macros look like many others which should in the long run help reading the code.

property: Add functions to iterate named child

2025-04-22T18:09:52+00:00

There are a few use-cases where child nodes with a specific name need to be parsed. Code like: fwnode_for_each_child_node() if (fwnode_name_eq()) ... can be found from a various drivers/subsystems. Adding a macro for this can simplify things a bit. In a few cases the data from the found nodes is later added to an array, which is allocated based on the number of found nodes. One example of such use is the IIO subsystem's ADC channel nodes, where the relevant nodes are named as channel[@N]. Add helpers for iterating and counting device's sub-nodes with certain name instead of open-coding this in every user.

The fwnode/device property API currently implement (fwnode|device)_property_read_bool() with (fwnode|device)_property_present(). That does not allow having different behavior depending on the backend. Specifically, the usage of (fwnode|device)_property_read_bool() on non-boolean properties is deprecated on DT. In order to add a warning on this deprecated use, these 2 APIs need separate ops for the backend. Acked-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Reviewed-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski Acked-by: Rafael J.
