Hi Sakari, Thanks for your feedback.

But it might be better to base this work on top of your fwnode work, s/from_dt_regs/from_fwnode/ and use the of_fwnode_handle() as you suggest here.

Or am I missing > something? I actually came to think about the same thing after replying, but then remembered something else: some drivers support multiple devices with different capabilities. There could be a reason to know which piece of hardware this is about. Although that can always be added later on if needed.

Do you think this would be valuable and make this new > operation more useful? The benefit is that it would also work on ACPI based systems, i.e. it is no longer DT specific. I'd say it's a benefit. :-) Yeah, I understand that you'd just use integers in the driver and then make the decision based on them? Makes sense. How about the wrapper function, should it take an fwnode handle pointer instead? The caller of that function likely has an fwnode pointer to start with, found through iterating over the endpoints. > > > > > > * @link_setup: Notify the entity of link changes.

The optional operation can be used by entities to report how it maps its DT node ports and endpoints to media pad numbers. This is useful for devices which require more advanced mappings of pads then DT port number is equivalent with media port number.
