You also removed the case insenstivity. Now, those things are supposed to be case sensitive afaik, but we have enough legacy HW with more/less crap DTs and I'd be careful with changing that without a good reason (ie, it breaks not to do it ?). No objection with fixing the partial match tho.

On that note, for completeness, this code should be using the of_compat_cmp() to match up with other code. If SPARC ever uses this code, which davem said he might tp support kexec, then this macro will be important. I'll change it when I pick up the patch. g. > > Cheers, > Ben. > >> --- >> drivers/of/fdt.c | 2 +- >> 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) >> >> diff --git a/drivers/of/fdt.c b/drivers/of/fdt.c >> index dee4fb5..f5239c0 100644 >> --- a/drivers/of/fdt.c >> +++ b/drivers/of/fdt.c >> @@ -169,7 +169,7 @@ int __init of_flat_dt_is_compatible(unsigned long node, const char *compat) >> if (cp == NULL) >> return 0; >> while (cplen > 0) { >> - if (strncasecmp(cp, compat, strlen(compat)) == 0) >> + if (!strcmp(cp, compat)) >> return 1; >> l = strlen(cp) + 1; >> cp += l; > > > _______________________________________________ > Linuxppc-dev mailing list > Linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org > https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/linuxppc-dev >
