For example, the pinctrl bindings have the same issue, since they're interpreted "globally", and by (code called from) the generic device probing code. We simply decided that the properties "pinctrl-names" and "pinctrl-n" (n=0...) were globally defined by the pinctrl subsystem, and hence could be parsed in any node. We could do the same with "smmus" and "smmu-names" in this case. > We may be able to have some kind of callback function which checks > "#stream-id-cells" *in* SMMU driver, but at least this function needs to > be registered in the bus at very early stage, iommu_ops->is_iommu_master(). > But this cannot be done with bus->iommu_ops since bus->iommu_ops is set > after IOMMU is populated. A kind of Chikin or the egg problem. I think this is simply the normal deferred probe. When device X attempts to probe, the core SMMU code (called from the core device probing code) iterates over the smmus property. If any of the phandles listed there don't have a registered SMMU driver, then defer probe of device X. Eventually, the SMMU driver will appear, and the driver core will attempt to re-probe device X, and all the SMMUs have devices probed already, and everything will work. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
