I'd really like to get rid of the 3 remaining users. Hmm... of_graph_get_next_endpoint() will fetch "endpoint" beyond the "port", but new helper doesn't have such feature. Even though I try to replace it with new helper, I guess it will be almost same as current of_graph_get_next_endpoint() anyway. Alternative idea is... One of the big user of of_graph_get_next_endpoint() is for_each_endpoint_of_node() loop. So we can replace it to.. - for_each_endpoint_of_node(parent, endpoint) { + for_each_of_graph_port(parent, port) { + for_each_of_graph_port_endpoint(port, endpoint) { Above is possible, but it replaces single loop to multi loops. And, we still need to consider about of_fwnode_graph_get_next_endpoint() which is the last user of of_graph_get_next_endpoint() > > +struct device_node *of_graph_get_next_port_endpoint(const struct device_node *port, > > + struct device_node *prev) > > +{ > > + do { > > + prev = of_get_next_child(port, prev); > > + if (!prev) > > + break; > > + } while (!of_node_name_eq(prev, "endpoint")); > > Really, this check is validation as no other name is valid in a > port node.

Do you mean it should include __free() inside this loop, like _scoped() ? #define for_each_child_of_node_scoped(parent, child) \ for (struct device_node *child __free(device_node) = \ of_get_next_child(parent, NULL); \ child != NULL; \ child = of_get_next_child(parent, child)) In such case, I wonder does it need to have _scoped() in loop name ? And in such case, I think we want to have non _scoped() loop too ? For example, when user want to use the param. for_each_of_graph_port_endpoint(port, endpoint) if (xxx == yyy) return endpoint; for_each_of_graph_port_endpoint_scoped(port, endpoint) if (xxx == yyy) return of_node_get(endpoint) Thank you for your help !!

I'd really like to get rid of the 3 remaining users. The fwnode graph API has fwnode_graph_get_endpoint_by_id() which can also be used to obtain endpoints within a port. It does the same than of_graph_get_endpoint_by_regs() with the addition that it also has a flags field to allow e.g. returning endpoints with regs higher than requested (FWNODE_GRAPH_ENDPOINT_NEXT). Most users dealing with endpoints on fwnode property API use this, could something like this be done on OF as well? Probably a similar flag would be needed though.

Right, but the "feature" is somewhat awkward as you said.

Though almost all of those are just "get the endpoint" and assume there is only 1. In any case, it's a lot more than 3, so nevermind for now. > > > +struct device_node *of_graph_get_next_port_endpoint(const struct device_node *port, > > > + struct device_node *prev) > > > +{ > > > + do { > > > + prev = of_get_next_child(port, prev); > > > + if (!prev) > > > + break; > > > + } while (!of_node_name_eq(prev, "endpoint")); > > > > Really, this check is validation as no other name is valid in a > > port node.

Well, we added that to avoid changing all the users at once. > And in such case, I think we want to have non _scoped() loop too ? Do we have a user? I don't think we need it because anywhere we need the node iterator pointer outside the loop that can be done explicitly (no_free_ptr()). So back to the name, I don't think we need _scoped in it. I think if any user treats the iterator like it's the old style, the compiler is going to complain. > For example, when user want to use the param. > > for_each_of_graph_port_endpoint(port, endpoint) > if (xxx == yyy) > return endpoint; > > for_each_of_graph_port_endpoint_scoped(port, endpoint) > if (xxx == yyy) > return of_node_get(endpoint) Actually, you would do "return_ptr(endpoint)" here.

Looks to me like FWNODE_GRAPH_ENDPOINT_NEXT is always used with endpoint #0. That's equivalent to passing -1 for the endpoint number with the OF API. > Most users dealing with endpoints on fwnode property API use this, could > something like this be done on OF as well? Probably a similar flag would be > needed though. I had fixed almost all the OF cases at one point. Unfortunately, there were a few corner cases that I didn't address to eliminate the API. So now it has proliferated with the fwnode API. Rob

That's equivalent to passing -1 for the endpoint number > with the OF API. If the caller needs a single endpoint only, then the two are the same, yes. The NEXT flag can still be used for obtaining further endpoints, unlike setting endpoint to -1 in of_graph_get_endpoint_by_regs(). > > > Most users dealing with endpoints on fwnode property API use this, could > > something like this be done on OF as well?

So > now it has proliferated with the fwnode API. Much of the usage of fwnode_graph_get_next_endpoint() is conversion from the OF API but there are some newer drivers, too. I admit I've sometimes missed this in review. At the same time I can say most users in the media tree do employ fwnode_graph_get_endpoint_by_id() already. The good thing is that almost all current users are camera sensors and converting them is fairly trivial. I can post patches but it'll take a while...

Up to you but I'd be concerned that the scoping stuff is non obvious enough that it is worth making people really really aware it is going on. However I don't feel strongly about it. For the other _scoped iterators there is some push back on the churn using them is causing so I doubt we'll ever get rid of the non scoped variants. For something new that's not a concern.

For something new that's not a concern. I noticed that we can write below code, and then, and there is no waning/error from compiler. Now for_each macro is using __free() #define for_each_of_graph_port(parent, child) \ for (... *child __free(device_node) = ...) (A) struct device_node *node = xxx; for_each_of_graph_port(parent, node) { (B) /* do something */ } (C) xxx = node; In this case, "(A) node" and "(C) node" are same, but "(B) node" are different. New user might confuse about this behavior. Thank you for your help !! Best regards --- Kuninori Morimoto

We already have of_graph_get_next_endpoint(), but it is not intuitive to use in some case. (X) node { (Y) ports { (P0) port@0 { endpoint { remote-endpoint = ...; };}; (P10) port@1 { endpoint { remote-endpoint = ...; }; (P11) endpoint { remote-endpoint = ...; };}; (P2) port@2 { endpoint { remote-endpoint = ...; };}; }; }; For example, if I want to handle port@1's 2 endpoints (= P10, P11), I want to use like below P10 = of_graph_get_next_endpoint(port1, NULL); P11 = of_graph_get_next_endpoint(port1, P10); But 1st one will be error, because of_graph_get_next_endpoint() requested "parent" means "node" (X) or "ports" (Y), not "port". Below works, but it will get P0 /* These will be node/ports/port@0/endpoint */ P0 = of_graph_get_next_endpoint(node, NULL); P0 = of_graph_get_next_endpoint(ports, NULL); In other words, we can't handle P10/P11 directly via of_graph_get_next_endpoint() so far. There is another non intuitive behavior on of_graph_get_next_endpoint(). In case of if I could get P10 pointer for some way, and if I want to handle port@1 things, I would like use it like below /* * "ep" is now P10, and handle port1 things here, * but we don't know how many endpoints port1 has. * * Because "ep" is non NULL now, we can use port1 * as of_graph_get_next_endpoint(port1, xxx) */ do { /* do something for port1 specific things here */ } while (ep = of_graph_get_next_endpoint(port1, ep)) But it also not worked as I expected. I expect it will be P10 -> P11 -> NULL, but it will be P10 -> P11 -> P2, because of_graph_get_next_endpoint() will fetch "endpoint" beyond the "port". It is not useful on generic driver. It uses of_get_next_child() instead for now, but it is not intuitive. And it doesn't check node name (= "endpoint"). To handle endpoint more intuitive, create of_graph_get_next_port_endpoint() of_graph_get_next_port_endpoint(port1, NULL); // P10 of_graph_get_next_port_endpoint(port1, P10); // P11 of_graph_get_next_port_endpoint(port1, P11); // NULL Signed-off-by: Kuninori Morimoto <kuninori.morimoto.gx@renesas.com> --- drivers/of/property.c | 22 ++++++++++++++++++++++ include/linux/of_graph.h | 20 ++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 42 insertions(+)
