The general idea makes sense to me, but I'm not sure we really do need a klist here, since the usage profile of this list is expected to be super simple: very small number of accessors, looking for small number of list members a small number of times, and probably never do need to modify the list while accessing it. I suspect that the code would be simpler to maintain, debug and understand if we just use a simple list with a simple locking methodology here.

The klist usage is something that we restored from previous remoteproc core code as used by the rproc_get_by_name() API. This was removed in commit 40e575b1d0b3 ("remoteproc: remove the get_by_name/put API"). We chose to use the code that had been present before rather than inventing something new all over again. If you feel that a regular list is the way to go forward, we can make the switch. regards Suman -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Using a regular list with a simple locking methodology should make the code easier to understand and debug.

Allow users of remoteproc the ability to get a handle to an rproc by passing a phandle supplied in the user's device tree node. This is useful in situations that require manual booting of the rproc. This patch uses the code removed by commit 40e575b1d0b3 ("remoteproc: remove the get_by_name/put API") for the ref counting a rproc klist code but has rproc_get_by_name replaced with an rproc_get_by_phandle API.
