Pull driver core / debugfs update from Greg KH: "Here is the "big" driver core and debugfs update for 5.12-rc1 This set of driver core patches caused a bunch of problems in linux-next for the past few weeks, when Saravana tried to set fw_devlink=on as the default functionality. This caused a number of systems to stop booting, and lots of bugs were fixed in this area for almost all of the reported systems, but this option is not ready to be turned on just yet for the default operation based on this testing, so I've reverted that change at the very end so we don't have to worry about regressions in 5.12 We will try to turn this on for 5.13 if testing goes better over the next few months. Other than the fixes caused by the fw_devlink testing in here, there's not much more: - debugfs fixes for invalid input into debugfs_lookup() - kerneldoc cleanups - warn message if platform drivers return an error on their remove callback (a futile effort, but good to catch). All of these have been in linux-next for a while now, and the regressions have gone away with the revert of the fw_devlink change" * tag 'driver-core-5.12-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core: (35 commits) Revert "driver core: Set fw_devlink=on by default" of: property: fw_devlink: Ignore interrupts property for some configs debugfs: do not attempt to create a new file before the filesystem is initalized debugfs: be more robust at handling improper input in debugfs_lookup() driver core: auxiliary bus: Fix calling stage for auxiliary bus init of: irq: Fix the return value for of_irq_parse_one() stub of: irq: make a stub for of_irq_parse_one() clk: Mark fwnodes when their clock provider is added/removed PM: domains: Mark fwnodes when their powerdomain is added/removed irqdomain: Mark fwnodes when their irqdomain is added/removed driver core: fw_devlink: Handle suppliers that don't use driver core of: property: Add fw_devlink support for optional properties driver core: Add fw_devlink.strict kernel param of: property: Don't add links to absent suppliers driver core: fw_devlink: Detect supplier devices that will never be added driver core: platform: Emit a warning if a remove callback returned non-zero of: property: Fix fw_devlink handling of interrupts/interrupts-extended gpiolib: Don't probe gpio_device if it's not the primary device device.h: Remove bogus "the" in kerneldoc gpiolib: Bind gpio_device to a driver to enable fw_devlink=on by default ...

Revert "driver core: Set fw_devlink=on by default"

2021-02-19T07:51:04Z

This reverts commit e590474768f1cc04852190b61dec692411b22e2a. While things are _almost_ there and working for almost all systems, there are still reported regressions happening, so let's revert this default for 5.12. We can bring it back in linux-next after 5.12-rc1 is out to get more testing and hopefully solve the remaining different subsystem and driver issues that people are running into.

driver core: lift dma_default_coherent into common code

2021-02-13T08:51:45Z

Lift the dma_default_coherent variable from the mips architecture code to the driver core. This allows an architecture to sdefault all device to be DMA coherent at run time, even if the kernel is build with support for DMA noncoherent device. By allowing device_initialize to set the ->dma_coherent field to this default the amount of arch hooks required for this behavior can be greatly reduced.

driver core: fw_devlink: Handle suppliers that don't use driver core

2021-02-09T13:31:06Z

Device links only work between devices that use the driver core to match and bind a driver to a device. So, add an API for frameworks to let the driver core know that a fwnode has been initialized by a driver without using the driver core. Then use this information to make sure that fw_devlink doesn't make the consumers wait indefinitely on suppliers that'll never bind to a driver.

driver core: Add fw_devlink.strict kernel param

2021-02-09T13:31:06Z

This param allows forcing all dependencies to be treated as mandatory. This will be useful for boards in which all optional dependencies like IOMMUs and DMAs need to be treated as mandatory dependencies.

driver core: fw_devlink: Detect supplier devices that will never be added

2021-02-09T13:31:06Z

During the initial parsing of firmware by fw_devlink, fw_devlink might infer that some supplier firmware nodes would get populated as devices. But the inference is not always correct. This patch tries to logically detect and fix such mistakes as boot progresses or more devices probe. fw_devlink makes a fundamental assumption that once a device binds to a driver, it will populate (i.e: add as struct devices) all the child firmware nodes that could be populated as devices (if they aren't populated already). So, whenever a device probes, we check all its child firmware nodes. If a child firmware node has a corresponding device populated, we don't modify the child node or its descendants. However, if a child firmware node has not been populated as a device, we delete all the fwnode links where the child node or its descendants are suppliers. This ensures that no other device is blocked on a firmware node that will never be populated as a device. We also mark such fwnodes as NOT_DEVICE, so that no new fwnode links are created with these nodes as suppliers.

driver core: Fix device link device name collision

2021-01-21T19:12:40Z

The device link device's name was of the form: -- This can cause name collision as reported here [1] as device names are not globally unique. Since device names have to be unique within the bus/class, add the bus/class name as a prefix to the device names used to construct the device link device name. So the devuce link device's name will be of the form: :--: [1] - https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20201229033440.32142-1-michael@walle.cc/ Fixes: 287905e68dd2 ("driver core: Expose device link details in sysfs") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by: Michael Walle Tested-by: Michael Walle Signed-off-by: Saravana Kannan Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210110175408.1465657-1-saravanak@google.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
