Thanks Greg and Vinod for the reviews

Do we need another abstractions for resources here, why not aux dev
creation set the resources required and we skip this step...

Not sure what resources you are referring to?

this is just a container_of() and the documented way of extending the auxbus (see https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/driver-api/auxiliary_bus.html#example-usage)


struct sdw_intel_link_dev {
        struct auxiliary_device auxdev;
        struct sdw_intel_link_res link_res;
};

#define auxiliary_dev_to_sdw_intel_link_dev(auxiliary_dev) \
        container_of(auxiliary_dev, struct sdw_intel_link_dev, auxdev)

        struct sdw_intel *sdw;
        struct sdw_cdns *cdns;
        struct sdw_bus *bus;

so auxdev has id and still we pass id as argument :( Not sure if folks
can fix this now

That's odd, yeah, it should be fixed.

I think we are talking about different things?

this is defined in mod_devicetable.h:

struct auxiliary_device_id {
        char name[AUXILIARY_NAME_SIZE];
        kernel_ulong_t driver_data;
};

and used for the driver probe:

        ret = auxdrv->probe(auxdev, auxiliary_match_id(auxdrv->id_table, 
auxdev));

but there is a separate id:

struct auxiliary_device {
        struct device dev;
        const char *name;
        u32 id;
};

which is set during the device initialization in intel_init.c

        /* we don't use an IDA since we already have a link ID */
        auxdev->id = link_id;

In the auxiliary bus design, the parent has to take care of managing this id, be it with an IDA or as we do here with a physical link ID that is unique.

in short, I don't see how I could change the code given the differences in concepts?
