[PATCH v2 2/3] driver core: fw_devlink: Handle missing drivers for optional suppliers

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



After a deferred probe attempt has exhaused all the devices that can be
bound, any device that remains unbound has one/both of these conditions
true:

(1) It is waiting on its supplier to bind
(2) It does not have a matching driver

So, to make fw_devlink=on more forgiving of missing drivers for optional
suppliers, after we've done a full deferred probe attempt, this patch
deletes all device links created by fw_devlink where the supplier hasn't
probed yet and the supplier itself is not waiting on any of its
suppliers. This allows consumers to probe during another deferred probe
attempt if they were waiting on optional suppliers.

When modules are enabled, we can't differentiate between a driver
that'll never be registered vs a driver that'll be registered soon by
loading a module. So, this patch doesn't do anything for the case where
modules are enabled.

Fixes: e590474768f1 ("driver core: Set fw_devlink=on by default")
