Ideally, neither i915_pci_probe() nor i915_driver_probe() should assume
we have display. We might not. We should not wait if we are never going
to initialize display.
Alas, we'll only know after i915_driver_probe() ->
i915_driver_mmio_probe() -> intel_device_info_runtime_init(), which
modifies ->pipe_mask, which is the single point of truth. See
HAS_DISPLAY().
We do have tests for failing probe at various points (see the
i915_inject_probe_failure() calls) to stress the cleanup paths in
CI. Part of the point was to prepare us for -EPROBE_DEFER returns.
Looks like the earliest/cleanest point for checking this is in
intel_modeset_init_noirq(), i.e. first display init call. But I admit it
gives me an uneasy feeling to return -EPROBE_DEFER at that stage. The
only -EPROBE_DEFER return we currently have is the vga switcheroo stuff
you see in the patch context, and most platforms never return that.
Ville, I'd like to get your thoughts on that.
Anyway, even if we decide not to, err, defer returning -EPROBE_DEFER, I
think we should abstract this better. For example, add a
intel_modeset_probe_defer() function in intel_display.c that checks
this, and call that as the first thing in i915_driver_probe(). Just to
keep the display specific code out of the high level functions, even if
that is functionally the same as what you're doing here.
BR,
Jani.
