Add a Device Feature List (DFL) bus driver for the Altera
16550 implementation of UART.

Hmm... Do we need this?

We do not need this.

Can this block be sorted alphabetically?

Yes, they can and should be sorted alphabetically.

DFH ?

Yes,"DFH" is better than "dfh" in the message.

Not sure I understood what parameters are here. FPGA VHDL? Configuration? RTL?

How about "missing required DFH parameters\n"?

Isn't this available via normal interfaces to user?

I am not sure what "normal interfaces to user" you are referring to. The code is just trying to read the frequency of the input clock to the uart from a DFH paramter.

The above call have a few different messages depending on error code.
No need to repeat this.

I will remove the call to dev_err().

Why shadowing error code?
What about

return dev_err_probe(dev, ret, ...);
?


Using dev_err_probe seems like the way to go.

+#define FME_FEATURE_ID_UART 0x24

Purpose of this definition? For me with or without is still an ID.

I don't think I understand the question. Is the name of the macro unclear, or do you think it is not necessary?


+static const struct dfl_device_id dfl_uart_ids[] = {
+ { FME_ID, FME_FEATURE_ID_UART },
+ { }
+};

...

+static struct dfl_driver dfl_uart_driver = {
+ .drv = {
+ .name = "dfl-uart",
+ },
+ .id_table = dfl_uart_ids,
+ .probe = dfl_uart_probe,
+ .remove = dfl_uart_remove,
+};

No need to have this blank line.

I will remove the blank line.


+module_dfl_driver(dfl_uart_driver);

...

+MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(dfl, dfl_uart_ids);

Move this closer to the definition. That's how other drivers do in the kernel.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I know that the records in those files are not sorted, but can you try hard
to find the best place for them in those files from sorting point of view?


I will try to find a better place from sorting porint of view.
