The patch
regmap: Add explict native endian flag to DT bindings
has been applied to the asoc tree at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/broonie/sound.git
All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.
You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.
If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing patches will not be replaced.
Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying to this mail.
Thanks, Mark

From: Mark Brown broonie@kernel.org Date: Tue, 26 Jan 2016 17:59:30 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] regmap: Add explict native endian flag to DT bindings
Currently the binding document says that if no endianness is configured we use native endian but this is not in fact true for all binding types and we do have some devices that really want native endianness such as Broadcom MIPS SoCs where switching the endianness of the CPU also switches the endianness of external IPs.
Provide an explicit option for this.

For one device driver, which will run in different scenarios above on different SoCs using the devicetree, we need one way to simplify this.
-Required properties: -- {big,little}-endian: these are boolean properties, if absent - meaning that the CPU and the Device are in the same endianness mode, - these properties are for register values and all the buffers only. +Optional properties: +- {big,little,native}-endian: these are boolean properties, if absent + then the implementation will choose a default based on the device + being controlled. These properties are for register values and all + the buffers only. Native endian means that the CPU and device have + the same endianness.
Examples: Scenario 1 : CPU in LE mode & device in LE mode. diff --git a/drivers/base/regmap/regmap.c b/drivers/base/regmap/regmap.c index ee54e84..3432634 100644 --- a/drivers/base/regmap/regmap.c +++ b/drivers/base/regmap/regmap.c @@ -557,6 +557,8 @@ enum regmap_endian regmap_get_val_endian(struct device *dev, endian = REGMAP_ENDIAN_BIG; else if (of_property_read_bool(np, "little-endian")) endian = REGMAP_ENDIAN_LITTLE; + else if (of_property_read_bool(np, "native-endian")) + endian = REGMAP_ENDIAN_NATIVE;
