Create a SoC folder for the ASPEED parts and place the misc drivers
currently present into this folder.  These drivers are not generic part
drivers, but rather only apply to the ASPEED SoCs.

Accidentally lost the Acked-by when re-sending this patchset as I
didn't see it on v1 before re-sending v2 to the larger audience.

Since there was a change between v1 and v2, Arnd, I'd appreciate you
Ack this version of the patchset since it changes when the soc/aspeed
Makefile is followed.

I have no objection for moving stuff out of drivers/misc/ so the SOC
maintainers are free to take this.

I was on the fence about this. The downside of moving drivers out of
drivers/misc is it allows SoCs to hide little drivers away from
scrutiny, when in fact they could be sharing a common userspace API
with other BMCs.  (Keep an eye out for the coming Nuvoton "bios post
code" driver which is very similar to
drivers/misc/aspeed-lpc-snoop.c).

However, in the effort to move away from BMC that are full of shell
scripts that bash on /dev/mem, we are going to see a collection of
small, very SoC specific, drivers and it doesn't make sense to clutter
up drivers/misc.

Acked-by: Joel Stanley <joel@jms.id.au>

The p2a driver has been merged by Greg. We should move that one over
too. Arnd, can you advise Patrick on how to proceed? We could have him
spin a v3 that includes the p2a driver, but it would depend on Greg's
char-misc-next branch.

Cheers,

Joel

Things like this should usually find a different home: drivers/misc
tends to be for one-of-a-kind stuff with a user interface, not for things
where you have multiple chips doing the same thing.

If you think there are going to be additional cases where you have
more than one bmc in need of a user interface for the same
functionality, we could introduce a drivers/bmc/ subsystem and
have a set of user interfaces backed by a set of chip specific
drivers.

I don't think there is a rush here, so let's do that for the following
merge window.

I'm totally confused. This is the second "PATCH v2" of this patch that I came
across, I already applied the first.

Patrick: Follow up with incremental patch in case there's any difference.
Meanwhile, please keep in mind that you're adding a lot of work for people when
you respin patches without following up on the previous version. Thanks!

I think the issue here was that I added to the CC list another email
and so you may see the v2  without that mailing list, and a v2 with it
--

Does this require a v3?  I honestly didn't think so, but this was the
first time I had to add more people without needing other changes.

w.r.t this patch series.  I found an issue with v1, and released a v2
with the detail of what changed.  I thought that was the correct
approach.  I apologize for creating extra work, that's something
nobody needs.

Not only that, but subthreads were cc:d to arm@kernel.org and some
were not, so I missed the overnight conversation on the topic.

If this email thread is any indication of how the code will be
flowing, there's definitely need for more structure. Joel, I'm hoping
you'll coordinate.

I'm with Arnd on whether the code should be in drivers/soc or not --
most of it likely should not.

To be honest, this patchset thread was a bit less clear than anyone
prefers.  I use get_maintainers to get the initial list, and so adding
arm@ or soc@ per a request tells me that perhaps those should be
output via that script.

I think the misc drivers for a SoC that are a single user interface
that is focused on the use-case that belongs to that SoC only belong
in soc/, while if there is something we can do in common -- different
story.  If it makes sense to just have misc/aspeed/ instead of
soc/aspeed -- would that align more?

The tools are working as expected, we normally don't take patches
directly to arm@kernel.org, we let them go in through platform
maintainers who then send it on to us.

Those views are how the "board file hell" started on 32-bit ARM too,
so we're definitely hesitant to jump to that conclusion without
knowing more about what's actually anticipated.


Do you happen to have an estimate on what kind of drivers are
needed/anticipated?

There is a UART routing control driver for ASPEED that spawned my push
to soc/aspeed.  The advice on that thread was to put such drivers
there.  There's likely to be a few more control-focused aspeed
drivers.

For Nuvoton, we definitely expect some similar LPC control drivers.
Possibly an LPC snoop driver, similar to aspeed-lpc-snoop.  This
supports the idea of creating some form of bmc subsystem as suggested
above (or in a different thread).

Well, v2 doesn't build. I'll fix it up locally by adding an 'endmenu'
to drivers/soc/aspeed/Kconfig. But... brings up questions how this was
tested before submitting?

scripts/kconfig/conf  --allnoconfig Kconfig
drivers/soc/Kconfig:24: 'menu' in different file than 'menu'
drivers/soc/aspeed/Kconfig:1: location of the 'menu'
drivers/Kconfig:233: 'menu' in different file than 'menu'
drivers/soc/aspeed/Kconfig:1: location of the 'menu'

It's ok to submit newer versions, but it's convenient when they get
threaded also in non-gmail mail readers (by using in-reply-to).

That's a lost change issue. I'll try to be more diligent in the
future.  My dev workspace  is disconnected from the kernel used for
upstreaming patches, so if i make a change in one it isn't always
reflected in the other.  I'm working on rectifying the underlying
build space issue to let me use the same repo.

Thanks for fixing this for me, and I apologize for the nuisance of it.
