We got a problem while bootup, the hang backtrace is like below(Sorry, I can't find the full backtrace now): [ 7.832359] Call trace: [ 7.834778] [<ffffffc000764424>] mtk_smi_larb_get+0x24/0xa8 [ 7.840300] [<ffffffc0005a1390>] mtk_drm_crtc_enable+0x6c/0x450 The reason is that "larb->mmu" is NULL while DRM call mtk_smi_larb_get. DRM call iommu_present to wait for whether IOMMU is ready[1]. But in the MTK-IOMMU, It will call bus_set_iommu->mtk_iommu_add_device->mtk_iommu_attach_device, then it's able to transfer "struct mtk_smi_iommu" to SMI whose probe maybe delayed by power-domain, then SMI could finish its probe. So If DRM probe is called after the time of calling bus_set_iommu and before the time of SMI probe finish, this problem can be reproduced. The root cause is that iommu_present cann't indicate that MTK-IOMMU and SMI is ready actually. in other words, the DRM cann't detect whether the SMI has probed done. If we move scpsys_init from module_initcall to subsys_initcall, the IOMMU and SMI could be probe done during the subsys_initcall period. this issue can be avoid. And as we grep before, there are also some examples whose power-domain is also not module_init[2]. core_initcall(exynos4_pm_init_power_domain); subsys_initcall(imx_pgc_init); If you think that this patch will hide the problem above, then I have to add a new function, like below: //================== bool mtk_smi_larb_ready(struct device *larbdev) { struct mtk_smi_larb *larb = dev_get_drvdata(larbdev); return larb && !!larb->mmu; } //================= And in the probe of all the MTK-IOMMU consumer, we have to add this: //==================== if (!mtk_smi_larb_ready(&larb_pdev->dev)) return -EPROBE_DEFER; //==================== The sequence is a little complex, If I don't explain clearly, please tell me. Any other suggestion about this? Thanks.
