This patch series is to constify the following API: struct device *device_find_child(struct device *dev, void *data, int (*match)(struct device *dev, void *data)); To : struct device *device_find_child(struct device *dev, const void *data, device_match_t match); typedef int (*device_match_t)(struct device *dev, const void *data); Why to constify the API? - Protect caller's match data @*data which is for comparison and lookup and the API does not actually need to modify @*data. - Make the API's parameters (@match)() and @data have the same type as all of other device finding APIs (bus|class|driver)_find_device(). - All kinds of existing device matching functions can be directly taken as the API's argument, they were exported by driver core. What to do? - Patches [1/11, 3/11] prepare for constifying the API. - Patch 4/11 constifies the API and adapt for its various subsystem usages. - Remaining do cleanup for several usages with benefits brought above. --- Changes in v3: - Solve build broken issue by squashing changes of various subsystem. - Reduce recipients to try to send out full patch serial. - Correct tiles and commit messages. - Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241203-const_dfc_done-v2-0-7436a98c497f@quicinc.com Changes in v2: - Series v1 have no code review comments and are posted a long time ago, so may ignore differences. - Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240811-const_dfc_done-v1-0-9d85e3f943cb@quicinc.com - Motivation link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/917359cc-a421-41dd-93f4-d28937fe2325@icloud.com --- Zijun Hu (11): libnvdimm: Simplify nd_namespace_store() implementation slimbus: core: Constify slim_eaddr_equal() bus: fsl-mc: Constify fsl_mc_device_match() driver core: Constify API device_find_child() then adapt for various usages driver core: Simplify API device_find_child_by_name() implementation driver core: Remove match_any() slimbus: core: Simplify of_find_slim_device() implementation gpio: sim: Remove gpio_sim_dev_match_fwnode() driver core: Introduce an device matching API device_match_type() cxl/pmem: Remove match_nvdimm_bridge() usb: typec: class: Remove both cable_match() and partner_match() arch/sparc/kernel/vio.c | 6 +++--- drivers/base/core.c | 30 ++++++++++-------------------- drivers/block/sunvdc.c | 6 +++--- drivers/bus/fsl-mc/dprc-driver.c | 8 ++++---- drivers/cxl/core/pci.c | 4 ++-- drivers/cxl/core/pmem.c | 9 +++------ drivers/cxl/core/region.c | 21 ++++++++++++--------- drivers/firewire/core-device.c | 4 ++-- drivers/firmware/arm_scmi/bus.c | 4 ++-- drivers/firmware/efi/dev-path-parser.c | 4 ++-- drivers/gpio/gpio-sim.c | 7 +------ drivers/gpu/drm/mediatek/mtk_drm_drv.c | 2 +- drivers/hwmon/hwmon.c | 2 +- drivers/media/pci/mgb4/mgb4_core.c | 4 ++-- drivers/nvdimm/bus.c | 2 +- drivers/nvdimm/claim.c | 9 +-------- drivers/pwm/core.c | 2 +- drivers/rpmsg/rpmsg_core.c | 4 ++-- drivers/scsi/qla4xxx/ql4_os.c | 3 ++- drivers/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.c | 10 +++++----- drivers/slimbus/core.c | 17 +++++------------ drivers/thunderbolt/retimer.c | 2 +- drivers/thunderbolt/xdomain.c | 2 +- drivers/tty/serial/serial_core.c | 4 ++-- drivers/usb/typec/class.c | 31 ++++++++++++++----------------- include/linux/device.h | 4 ++-- include/linux/device/bus.h | 1 + include/scsi/scsi_transport_iscsi.h | 4 ++-- net/dsa/dsa.c | 2 +- tools/testing/cxl/test/cxl.c | 2 +- 30 files changed, 90 insertions(+), 120 deletions(-) --- base-commit: feffde684ac29a3b7aec82d2df850fbdbdee55e4 change-id: 20241201-const_dfc_done-aaec71e3bbea Best regards,
