[PATCH 5.12 483/677] powerpc/pseries: Only register vio drivers if vio bus exists

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

 



From: Michael Ellerman <mpe@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 11d92156f7a862091009d7655d19c1e7de37fc7a ]

The vio bus is a fake bus, which we use on pseries LPARs (guests) to
discover devices provided by the hypervisor. There's no need or sense
in creating the vio bus on bare metal systems.

Which is why commit 4336b9337824 ("powerpc/pseries: Make vio and
ibmebus initcalls pseries specific") made the initialisation of the
vio bus only happen in LPARs.

However as a result of that commit we now see errors at boot on bare
metal systems:

  Driver 'hvc_console' was unable to register with bus_type 'vio' because the bus was not initialized.
  Driver 'tpm_ibmvtpm' was unable to register with bus_type 'vio' because the bus was not initialized.

This happens because those drivers are built-in, and are calling
vio_register_driver(). It in turn calls driver_register() with a
reference to vio_bus_type, but we haven't registered vio_bus_type with
the driver core.

Fix it by also guarding vio_register_driver() with a check to see if
we are on pseries.
