This series converts several Ethernet drivers to use the generic device model APIs for device tree access, replacing devfdt_* and fdtdec/fdt_* interfaces.
The goal is to improve compatibility with both live device tree and flat device tree backends, and to reduce direct dependencies on low-level FDT helpers. Patches 1–5 perform straightforward replacements: - devfdt_get_addr() → dev_read_addr() - devfdt_get_addr_index() → dev_read_addr_index() - devfdt_get_addr_index_ptr() → dev_read_addr_index_ptr() - map_physmem(devfdt_get_addr()) → dev_remap_addr() These changes are mechanical and introduce no functional change. Patch 6 converts the mvpp2 driver from legacy fdtdec/fdt_* APIs to ofnode-based interfaces. This removes dependencies on gd->fdt_blob and updates phandle parsing, subnode iteration, property access, and device lookup. No intended functional changes. I not have the platforms to test, just best practice for this work. Signed-off-by: Peng Fan <[email protected]> --- Changes in v2: - Add R-b from Simon - In patch 6: - drop unused variables, - drop error return code which not follows "No functional changes". This patchset is mainly for API updating, not indended to do functional change. - Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected] --- Peng Fan (6): net: ethoc: Use dev_read_addr_index() net: qe: dm_qe_uec: Use dev_read_addr() net: calxedaxgmac: Use dev_read_addr() net: dc2114x: Use dev_remap_addr() net: mvpp2: Use dev_read_addr_index_ptr() net: mvpp2: convert FDT access to ofnode API drivers/net/calxedaxgmac.c | 2 +- drivers/net/dc2114x.c | 2 +- drivers/net/ethoc.c | 2 +- drivers/net/mvpp2.c | 56 +++++++++++++++++++++------------------------- drivers/net/qe/dm_qe_uec.c | 2 +- 5 files changed, 29 insertions(+), 35 deletions(-) --- base-commit: bb354d04459f5425318aeb8a70bae995ee573f1d change-id: 20260526-devfdt-net-a0fe75cd7f49 Best regards, -- Peng Fan <[email protected]>
