I see the suppliers for the > ocp child device instances only. Hmmm... this is strange (that the device link isn't there), but this is what I suspected. Now we need to figure out why it's missing. There are only a few things that could cause this and I don't see any of those. I already checked to make sure the power domain in this instance had a proper driver with a probe() function -- if it didn't, then that's one thing that'd could have caused the missing device link. The device does seem to have a proper driver, so looks like I can rule that out. Can you point me to the dts file that corresponds to the specific board you are testing this one? I probably won't find anything, but I want to rule out some of the possibilities. All the device link creation logic is inside drivers/base/core.c. So if you can look at the existing messages or add other stuff to figure out why the device link isn't getting created, that'd be handy. In either case, I'll continue staring at the DT and code to see what might be happening here. -Saravana
