We have endpoint base functions
- of_graph_get_next_endpoint()
- of_graph_get_endpoint_count()
- for_each_endpoint_of_node()
Here, for_each_endpoint_of_node() loop finds each endpoints
ports {
port@0 {
(1) endpoint {...};
};
port@1 {
(2) endpoint {...};
};
...
};
In above case, it finds endpoint as (1) -> (2) -> ...
Basically, user/driver knows which port is used for what, but not in
all cases. For example on flexible/generic driver case, how many ports
are used is not fixed.
For example Sound Generic Card driver which is very flexible/generic and
used from many venders can't know how many ports are used, and used for
what, because it depends on each vender SoC and/or its used board.
And more, the port can have multi endpoints. For example Generic Sound
Card case, it supports many type of connection between CPU / Codec, and
some of them uses multi endpoint in one port. see below.
ports {
(A) port@0 {
(1) endpoint@0 {...};
(2) endpoint@1 {...};
};
(B) port@1 {
(3) endpoint {...};
};
...
};
Generic Sound Card want to handle each connection via "port" base instead
of "endpoint" base. But, it is very difficult to handle each "port" via
existing for_each_endpoint_of_node(). Because getting each "port" via
of_get_parent() from each "endpoint" doesn't work. For example in above
case, both (1) (2) endpoint has same "port" (= A).
Add "port" base functions.
