From e99f8b5efe78110e4af10f35ebf11feeef8f43b6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Cox Date: Tue, 8 Nov 2005 14:09:44 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] libata: propogate host private data from probe function This will let me chop the code size of several drivers right down. In many cases the actual private data is very useful and constant for a given host controller so being able to just pass it at probe time would be very useful indeed (eg with the via driver would could pass the udma clocking and reduce the code size, or with the AMD one the UDMA multiplier and the offset) Signed-off-by: Alan Cox Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik --- include/linux/libata.h | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) (limited to 'include') diff --git a/include/linux/libata.h b/include/linux/libata.h index a5390313c7b4..1464a7586de8 100644 --- a/include/linux/libata.h +++ b/include/linux/libata.h @@ -405,6 +405,7 @@ struct ata_port_info { unsigned long mwdma_mask; unsigned long udma_mask; const struct ata_port_operations *port_ops; + void *private_data; }; struct ata_timing { -- cgit v1.2.3
