Note that we are not using device + tree bindings here. + </para> + <para> + In order to register itself to the controller driver, the glue + layer goes through a few steps, basically allocating the + controller hardware resources and initialising a couple of + circuits. To do so, it needs to keep track of the information used + throughout these steps. This is done by defining a private + jz4740_glue structure: + </para> + <programlisting linenumbering="numbered"> +struct jz4740_glue { + struct device *dev; + struct platform_device *musb; + struct clk *clk; +}; + </programlisting> + <para> + The dev and musb members are both device structure variables.

The PLATFORM_DEVID_AUTO flag (line + 12) allows automatic allocation and management of device IDs in + order to avoid device namespace collisions with explicit IDs. With + devm_clk_get() (line 18) the glue layer allocates the clock -- the + <literal>devm_</literal> prefix indicates that clk_get() is + managed: it automatically frees the allocated clock resource data + when the device is released -- and enable it. + </para> + <para> + Then comes the registration steps: + </para> + <programlisting linenumbering="numbered"> +static int jz4740_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) +{ + struct musb_hdrc_platform_data *pdata = &jz4740_musb_platform_data; + + pdata->platform_ops = &jz4740_musb_ops; + + platform_set_drvdata(pdev, glue); + + ret = platform_device_add_resources(musb, pdev->resource, + pdev->num_resources); + if (ret) { + dev_err(&pdev->dev, "failed to add resources\n"); + goto err_clk_disable; + } + + ret = platform_device_add_data(musb, pdata, sizeof(*pdata)); + if (ret) { + dev_err(&pdev->dev, "failed to add platform_data\n"); + goto err_clk_disable; + } + + return 0; + +err_clk_disable: + clk_disable_unprepare(clk); +err_platform_device_put: + platform_device_put(musb); + return ret; +} + </programlisting> + <para> + The first step is to pass the device data privately held by the + glue layer on to the controller driver through + platform_set_drvdata() (line 7).

The dma_mask field (line 25) defines the width of the DMA + mask that is going to be used, and coherent_dma_mask (line 26) + has the same purpose but for the alloc_coherent DMA mappings: in + both cases we are using a 32 bits mask.
