Hi, Brian,

Sorry for the delay, I was off for a while.

Hi Claudiu,

Sorry about the delay writing back. I was at Linux Plumbers in Tokyo.

This driver currently only supports builds against a PIC32 target. To
avoid future breakage in the future, let's update the Kconfig and the
driver so that it can be built with CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST enabled.

Note that with the existing asm calls is not how I'd want to do this
today if this was a new driver, however I don't have access to this
hardware. To avoid any breakage, let's keep the existing behavior.

Can't we have something like:

#if defined(CONFIG_MATCH_PIC32)
#include <asm/match-pic32/pic32.h>
#else
#define PIC32_CLR(_reg) ((_reg) + 0x04)
#define PIC32_SET(_reg) ((_reg) + 0x08)
#define PIC32_INV(_reg) ((_reg) + 0x0C)
#define pic32_syskey_unlock()
#endif

Yes, I agree that would be simpler.

+#define PIC32_CLR(_reg) ((_reg) + 0x04)
+#define PIC32_SET(_reg) ((_reg) + 0x08)
+#define PIC32_INV(_reg) ((_reg) + 0x0C)
+#define pic32_syskey_unlock()

On the other side, there are other drivers using these defines, maybe a
unified approach would fit better? Maybe moving these to
include/linux/platform_data ?

I agree that would be the better approach. Specifically:

- Move arch/mips/include/asm/mach-pic32/pic32.h to
include/linux/platform_data
- Drop the unused include linux/io.h in pic32.h
- Check for CONFIG_MATCH_PIC32 for the pic32_syskey_unlock define. Make
it a noop for all other architectures.

That would allow us to have the following in the drivers, with no #if's:

#include <linux/platform_data/pic32.h>

I initially wanted to go this route, and I feel that's the best
technical decision, however my only hesitation is that this is going to
touch at least 8 different subsystems. I could probably get the MIPS
folks to take all of this, however it's going to be a pain to collect
all of the ACKs from the different subsystems.

Thoughts?

Sounds good to me.
