This two structs are confused driver writers and > boards driver users. How would that confusion arise? Only arch/.../board-xxx.c writers normally even see spi_board_info; the exception is that someone who writes an add-on board -- maybe a USB-to-SPI adapter -- would call the rarely used spi_new_device() routine. Developers writing a SPI drivers -- controller drivers touching some SOC's serial controller hardware, or "struct spi_driver" protocol code talking to a chip through such a controller -- never see board info. They only see "struct spi_device". So I don't see why they would have a reason to be confused. - Dave - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | |||||||||
