From 1976152fd8e706135deed6cf333e347c08416056 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Grant Likely Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2010 07:30:31 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] of: Fix comparison of "compatible" properties Commit 7c7b60cb87547b1664a4385c187f029bf514a737 "of: put default string compare and #a/s-cell values into common header" Breaks various things on powerpc due to using strncasecmp instead of strcasecmp for comparing against "compatible" strings. This causes things like the 4xx PCI code to fail miserably due to the partial matches in code like this: for_each_compatible_node(np, NULL, "ibm,plb-pcix") ppc4xx_probe_pcix_bridge(np); for_each_compatible_node(np, NULL, "ibm,plb-pci") ppc4xx_probe_pci_bridge(np); It's not quite right to do partial name match. Entries in a compatible list are meant to be matched whole. If a device is compatible with both "foo" and "foo1", then the device should have both strings in its "compatible" property. This patch reverts powerpc and microblaze us to use strcasecmp. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt (for patch description) Signed-off-by: Grant Likely Acked-by: David S.
