The device driver can be deferrable and can be a race during the dm-init early. We need to wait all the probe are really finished in a loop as is done in do_mounts. This is was tested on kernel 5.4 but code seems was not changed since that time 003: imx8mq-usb-phy 381f0040.usb-phy: 381f0040.usb-phy supply vbus not found, using dummy regulator 003: imx8mq-usb-phy 382f0040.usb-phy: 382f0040.usb-phy supply vbus not found, using dummy regulator 003: imx-cpufreq-dt imx-cpufreq-dt: cpu speed grade 5 mkt segment 0 supported-hw 0x20 0x1 003: caam-dma caam-dma: caam dma support with 2 job rings 000: hctosys: unable to open rtc device (rtc0) 000: device-mapper: init: waiting for all devices to be available before creating mapped devices 002: device-mapper: table: 254:0: verity: Data device lookup failed 002: device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table 002: crng init done 003: of_cfs_init 003: of_cfs_init: OK 003: Waiting for root device /dev/dm-0... 001: mmc2: new HS400 Enhanced strobe MMC card at address 0001 001: mmcblk2: mmc2:0001 IB2916 14.6 GiB 001: mmcblk2boot0: mmc2:0001 IB2916 partition 1 4.00 MiB 001: mmcblk2boot1: mmc2:0001 IB2916 partition 2 4.00 MiB 001: mmcblk2rpmb: mmc2:0001 IB2916 partition 3 4.00 MiB, chardev (249:0) 001: mmcblk2: p1 p2 p3 p4 p5 p6 p7 p8 p9 p10 p11 001: VSD_3V3: disabling with the patch 003: device-mapper: init: waiting for all devices to be available before creating mapped devices 000: device-mapper: table: 254:0: verity: Data device lookup failed 000: device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table 002: crng init done 003: device-mapper: init: waiting for all devices to be available before creating mapped devices 003: device-mapper: table: 254:0: verity: Data device lookup failed 003: device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table 003: device-mapper: init: waiting for all devices to be available before creating mapped devices 000: device-mapper: table: 254:0: verity: Data device lookup failed 000: device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table 002: device-mapper: init: waiting for all devices to be available before creating mapped devices 002: device-mapper: table: 254:0: verity: Data device lookup failed 002: device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table 000: device-mapper: init: waiting for all devices to be available before creating mapped devices 000: device-mapper: table: 254:0: verity: Data device lookup failed 000: device-mapper: ioctl: error adding target to table 003: mmc2: new HS400 Enhanced strobe MMC card at address 0001 003: mmcblk2: mmc2:0001 DG4016 14.7 GiB 003: mmcblk2boot0: mmc2:0001 DG4016 partition 1 4.00 MiB 003: mmcblk2boot1: mmc2:0001 DG4016 partition 2 4.00 MiB 003: mmcblk2rpmb: mmc2:0001 DG4016 partition 3 4.00 MiB, chardev (249:0) 003: mmcblk2: p1 p2 p3 p4 p5 p6 p7 p8 p9 p10 p11 002: device-mapper: init: waiting for all devices to be available before creating mapped devices 003: device-mapper: verity: sha256 using implementation "sha256-caam" 000: device-mapper: ioctl: dm-0 (rootfs) is ready Signed-off-by: Michael Trimarchi <michael@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/md/dm-init.c | 15 ++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 14 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/md/dm-init.c b/drivers/md/dm-init.c index b0c45c6ebe0b..d3b754036484 100644 --- a/drivers/md/dm-init.c +++ b/drivers/md/dm-init.c @@ -7,7 +7,9 @@ * This file is released under the GPLv2. */ +#include <linux/async.h> #include <linux/ctype.h> +#include <linux/delay.h> #include <linux/device.h> #include <linux/device-mapper.h> #include <linux/init.h> @@ -267,6 +269,7 @@ static int __init dm_init_init(void) LIST_HEAD(devices); char *str; int r; + bool fail = false; if (!create) return 0; @@ -275,6 +278,7 @@ static int __init dm_init_init(void) DMERR("Argument is too big.
