When the kernel is built with CONFIG_PREEMPT it is possible to reach a state when all modules loaded but some driver still stuck in the deferred list and there is a need for external event to kick the deferred queue to probe these drivers. The issue has been observed on embedded systems with CONFIG_PREEMPT enabled, audio support built as modules and using nfsroot for root filesystem. The following log fragment shows such sequence when all audio modules were loaded but the sound card is not present since the machine driver has failed to probe due to missing dependency during it's probe. The board is am335x-evmsk (McASP<->tlv320aic3106 codec) with davinci-evm machine driver: ... [ 12.615118] davinci-mcasp 4803c000.mcasp: davinci_mcasp_probe: ENTER [ 12.719969] davinci_evm sound.3: davinci_evm_probe: ENTER [ 12.725753] davinci_evm sound.3: davinci_evm_probe: snd_soc_register_card [ 12.753846] davinci-mcasp 4803c000.mcasp: davinci_mcasp_probe: snd_soc_register_component [ 12.922051] davinci-mcasp 4803c000.mcasp: davinci_mcasp_probe: snd_soc_register_component DONE [ 12.950839] davinci_evm sound.3: ASoC: platform (null) not registered [ 12.957898] davinci_evm sound.3: davinci_evm_probe: snd_soc_register_card DONE (-517) [ 13.099026] davinci-mcasp 4803c000.mcasp: Kicking the deferred list [ 13.177838] davinci-mcasp 4803c000.mcasp: really_probe: probe_count = 2 [ 13.194130] davinci_evm sound.3: snd_soc_register_card failed (-517) [ 13.346755] davinci_mcasp_driver_init: LEAVE [ 13.377446] platform sound.3: Driver davinci_evm requests probe deferral [ 13.592527] platform sound.3: really_probe: probe_count = 0 In the log the machine driver enters it's probe at 12.719969 (this point it has been removed from the deferred lists). McASP driver already executing it's probing (since 12.615118). The machine driver tries to construct the sound card (12.950839) but did not found one of the components so it fails. After this McASP driver registers all the ASoC components (the machine driver still in it's probe function after it failed to construct the card) and the deferred work is prepared at 13.099026 (note that this time the machine driver is not in the lists so it is not going to be handled when the work is executing). Lastly the machine driver exit from it's probe and the core places it to the deferred list but there will be no other driver going to load and the deferred queue is not going to be kicked again - till we have external event like connecting USB stick, etc. The proposed solution is to try the deferred queue once more when the last driver is asking for deferring and we had drivers loaded while this last driver was probing. This way we can avoid drivers stuck in the deferred queue.

Commit fa180eb4 (PM / Runtime: Idle devices asynchronously after probe|release) modified __device_release_driver() to call pm_runtime_put(dev) instead of pm_runtime_put_sync(dev) before detaching the driver from the device. However, that was a mistake, because pm_runtime_put(dev) causes rpm_idle() to be queued up and the driver may be gone already when that function is executed. That breaks the assumptions the drivers have the right to make about the core's behavior on the basis of the existing documentation and actually causes problems to happen, so revert that part of commit fa180eb4 and restore the previous behavior of __device_release_driver().

One of the side effects of deferred probe is that some drivers which used to be probed before initcalls completed are now happening slightly later. This causes two problems. - If a console driver gets deferred, then it may not be ready when userspace starts. For example, if a uart depends on pinctrl, then the uart will get deferred and /dev/console will not be available - __init sections will be discarded before built-in drivers are probed. Strictly speaking, __init functions should not be called in a drivers __probe path, but there are a lot of drivers (console stuff again) that do anyway. In the past it was perfectly safe to do so because all built-in drivers got probed before the end of initcalls. This patch fixes the problem by forcing the first pass of the deferred list to complete at late_initcall time. This is late enough to catch the drivers that are known to have the above issues.

This makes the device core auto-grab the pinctrl handle and set the "default" (PINCTRL_STATE_DEFAULT) state for every device that is present in the device model right before probe. This will account for the lion's share of embedded silicon devcies. A modification of the semantics for pinctrl_get() is also done: previously if the pinctrl handle for a certain device was already taken, the pinctrl core would return an error. Now, since the core may have already default-grabbed the handle and set its state to "default", if the handle was already taken, this will be disregarded and the located, previously instanitated handle will be returned to the caller. This way all code in drivers explicitly requesting their pinctrl handlers will still be functional, and drivers that want to explicitly retrieve and switch their handles can still do that. But if the desired functionality is just boilerplate of this type in the probe() function: struct pinctrl *p; p = devm_pinctrl_get_select_default(&dev); if (IS_ERR(p)) { if (PTR_ERR(p) == -EPROBE_DEFER) return -EPROBE_DEFER; dev_warn(&dev, "no pinctrl handle\n"); } The discussion began with the addition of such boilerplate to the omap4 keypad driver: http://marc.info/?l=linux-input&m=135091157719300&w=2 A previous approach using notifiers was discussed: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=135263661110528&w=2 This failed because it could not handle deferred probes. This patch alone does not solve the entire dilemma faced: whether code should be distributed into the drivers or if it should be centralized to e.g. a PM domain. But it solves the immediate issue of the addition of boilerplate to a lot of drivers that just want to grab the default state. As mentioned, they can later explicitly retrieve the handle and set different states, and this could as well be done by e.g. PM domains as it is only related to a certain struct device * pointer. ChangeLog v4->v5 (Stephen): - Simplified the devicecore grab code. - Deleted a piece of documentation recommending that pins be mapped to a device rather than hogged. ChangeLog v3->v4 (Linus): - Drop overzealous NULL checks. - Move kref initialization to pinctrl_create(). - Seeking Tested-by from Stephen Warren so we do not disturb the Tegra platform. - Seeking ACK on this from Greg (and others who like it) so I can merge it through the pinctrl subsystem. ChangeLog v2->v3 (Linus): - Abstain from using IS_ERR_OR_NULL() in the driver core, Russell recently sent a patch to remove it. Handle the NULL case explicitly even though it's a bogus case. - Make sure we handle probe deferral correctly in the device core file. devm_kfree() the container on error so we don't waste memory for devices without pinctrl handles. - Introduce reference counting into the pinctrl core using <linux/kref.h> so that we don't release pinctrl handles that have been obtained for two or more places. ChangeLog v1->v2 (Linus): - Only store a pointer in the device struct, and only allocate this if it's really used by the device.

Commit a7a20d10 ("sd: limit the scope of the async probe domain") make the SCSI device probing run device discovery in it's own async domain. However, as a result, the partition detection was no longer synchronized by async_synchronize_full() (which, despite the name, only synchronizes the global async space, not all of them). Which in turn meant that "wait_for_device_probe()" would not wait for the SCSI partitions to be parsed. And "wait_for_device_probe()" was what the boot time init code relied on for mounting the root filesystem. Now, most people never noticed this, because not only is it timing-dependent, but modern distributions all use initrd. So the root filesystem isn't actually on a disk at all. And then before they actually mount the final disk filesystem, they will have loaded the scsi-wait-scan module, which not only does the expected wait_for_device_probe(), but also does scsi_complete_async_scans(). [ Side note: scsi_complete_async_scans() had also been partially broken, but that was fixed in commit 43a8d39d ("fix async probe regression"), so that same commit a7a20d10 had actually broken setups even if you used scsi-wait-scan explicitly ] Solve this problem by just moving the scsi_complete_async_scans() call into wait_for_device_probe(). Everybody who wants to wait for device probing to finish really wants the SCSI probing to complete, so there's no reason not to do this. So now "wait_for_device_probe()" really does what the name implies, and properly waits for device probing to finish. This also removes the now unnecessary extra calls to scsi_complete_async_scans().

The pm_runtime_get_noresume() calls before really_probe() and before executing __device_attach() for each driver on the device's bus cause problems to happen if probing fails and if the driver has enabled runtime PM for the device in its .probe() callback. Namely, in that case, if the device has been resumed by the driver after enabling its runtime PM and if it turns out that .probe() should return an error, the driver is supposed to suspend the device and disable its runtime PM before exiting .probe(). However, because the device's runtime PM usage counter was incremented by the core before calling .probe(), the driver's attempt to suspend the device will not succeed and the device will remain in the full-power state after the failing .probe() has returned. To fix this issue, remove the pm_runtime_get_noresume() calls from driver_probe_device() and from device_attach() and replace the corresponding pm_runtime_put_sync() calls with pm_runtime_idle() to preserve the existing behavior (which is to check if the device is idle and to suspend it eventually in that case after probing).

When deferred probe was originally added the idea was that devices which defer their probes would move themselves to the end of dpm_list in order to try to keep the assumptions that we're making about the list being in roughly the order things should be suspended correct. However this hasn't been what's been happening and doing it requires a lot of duplicated code to do the moves. Instead take a simple, brute force solution and have the deferred probe code push devices to the end of dpm_list before it retries the probe. This does mean we lock the dpm_list a bit more often but it's very simple and the code shouldn't be a fast path. We do the move with the deferred mutex dropped since doing things with fewer locks held simultaneously seems like a good idea. This approach was most recently suggested by Grant Likely.

1) drvdata is for a driver to store a pointer to driver specific data 2) If no driver is bound, there is no driver specific data associated with the device 3) Thus logically drvdata should be NULL if no driver is bound. But many drivers don't clear drvdata on device_release, or set drvdata early on in probe and leave it set on probe error. Both of which results in a dangling pointer in drvdata.

Allow drivers to report at probe time that they cannot get all the resources required by the device, and should be retried at a later time. This should completely solve the problem of getting devices initialized in the right order. Right now this is mostly handled by mucking about with initcall ordering which is a complete hack, and doesn't even remotely handle the case where device drivers are in modules. This approach completely sidesteps the issues by allowing driver registration to occur in any order, and any driver can request to be retried after a few more other drivers get probed. v4: - Integrate Manjunath's addition of a separate workqueue - Change -EAGAIN to -EPROBE_DEFER for drivers to trigger deferral - Update comment blocks to reflect how the code really works v3: - Hold off workqueue scheduling until late_initcall so that the bulk of driver probes are complete before we start retrying deferred devices. - Tested with simple use cases. Still needs more testing though. Using it to get rid of the gpio early_initcall madness, or to replace the ASoC internal probe deferral code would be ideal. v2: - added locking so it should no longer be utterly broken in that regard - remove device from deferred list at device_del time. - Still completely untested with any real use case, but has been boot tested.

The driver core tries to prevent race conditions between runtime PM and driver removal from happening by incrementing the runtime PM usage counter of the device and executing pm_runtime_barrier() before running the bus notifier and the ->remove() callbacks provided by the device's subsystem or driver. This guarantees that, if a future runtime suspend of the device has been scheduled or a runtime resume or idle request has been queued up right before the driver removal, it will be canceled or waited for to complete and no other asynchronous runtime suspend or idle requests for the device will be put into the PM workqueue until the ->remove() callback returns. However, it doesn't prevent resume requests from being queued up after pm_runtime_barrier() has been called and it doesn't prevent pm_runtime_resume() from executing the device subsystem's runtime resume callback. Morever, it prevents the device's subsystem or driver from putting the device into the suspended state by calling pm_runtime_suspend() from its ->remove() routine. This turns out to be a major inconvenience for some subsystems and drivers that want to leave the devices they handle in the suspended state. To really prevent runtime PM callbacks from racing with the bus notifier callback in __device_release_driver(), which is necessary, because the notifier is used by some subsystems to carry out operations affecting the runtime PM functionality, use pm_runtime_get_sync() instead of the combination of pm_runtime_get_noresume() and pm_runtime_barrier(). This will resume the device if it's in the suspended state and will prevent it from being suspended again until pm_runtime_put_*() is called. To allow subsystems and drivers to put devices into the suspended state by calling pm_runtime_suspend() from their ->remove() routines, execute pm_runtime_put_sync() after running the bus notifier in __device_release_driver(). This will require subsystems and drivers to make their ->remove() callbacks avoid races with runtime PM directly, but it will allow of more flexibility in the handling of devices during the removal of their drivers.

Add BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER as a bus notifier event. For driver binding/unbinding we with this in place have the following bus notifier events: - BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER - before ->probe() - BUS_NOTIFY_BOUND_DRIVER - after ->probe() - BUS_NOTIFY_UNBIND_DRIVER - before ->remove() - BUS_NOTIFY_UNBOUND_DRIVER - after ->remove() The event BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER allows bus code to be notified that ->probe() is about to be called. Useful for bus code that needs to setup hardware before the driver gets to run. With this in place platform drivers can be loaded and unloaded as modules and the new BIND event allows bus code to control for instance device clocks that must be enabled before the driver can be executed.

Introduce a run-time PM workqueue and define some device run-time PM helper functions at the core level. Document all these things. Special thanks to Alan Stern for his help with the design and multiple detailed reviews of the pereceding versions of this patch and to Magnus Damm for testing feedback. Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

This patch adds a new bus notifier event which is emitted _after_ a device is removed from its driver. This event will be used by the dma-api debug code to check if a driver has released all dma allocations for that device.

There is currently only one way for userspace to say "wait for my storage device to get ready for the modules I just loaded": to load the scsi_wait_scan module. Expectations of userspace are that once this module is loaded, all the (storage) devices for which the drivers were loaded before the module load are present. Now, there are some issues with the implementation, and the async stuff got caught in the middle of this: The existing code only waits for the scsy async probing to finish, but it did not take into account at all that probing might not have begun yet. (Russell ran into this problem on his computer and the fix works for him) This patch fixes this more thoroughly than the previous "fix", which had some bad side effects (namely, for kernel code that wanted to wait for the scsi scan it would also do an async sync, which would deadlock if you did it from async context already.. there's a report about that on lkml): The patch makes the module first wait for all device driver probes, and then it will wait for the scsi parallel scan to finish.

This patch removes 100ms polling for driver_probe_done in wait_for_device_probe(), and uses wait_event() instead. Removing polling in fs initialization may lead to a faster boot. This patch also changes the return type of wait_for_device_done() from int to void. This patch is against Arjan's patch in linux-next tree.

This patch moves bus->match out from driver_probe_device and does not hold device lock to check the match between a device and a driver. The idea has been verified by the commit 6cd49586, which leads to a faster boot. But the commit 6cd49586 has the following drawbacks: 1),only does the quick check in the path of __driver_attach->driver_probe_device, not in other paths; 2),for a matched device and driver, check the same match twice. It is a waste of cpu ,especially for some drivers with long device id table (eg. usb-storage driver). This patch adds a helper of driver_match_device to check the match in all paths, and testes the match only once.

there's a few places that currently loop over driver_probe_done(), and I'm about to add another one. This patch abstracts it into a helper to reduce duplication.

This patch adds a quick check for the driver<->device match before taking the locks and doin gthe expensive checks. Taking the lock hurts in asynchronous boot context where the device lock gets hit; one of the init functions takes the lock and goes to do an expensive hardware init; the other init functions walk the same PCI list and get stuck on the lock as a result. For the common case, we can know there's no chance whatsoever of a match if the device isn't in the drivers ID table... so this patch does that check as a best-effort-avoid-the-lock approach. Bootcharts for before and after can be seen at http://www.fenrus.org/before.svg http://www.fenrus.org/after.svg Note the long time "agp_ali_init" takes in the first graph; my laptop doesn't even have an ALI chip in it! (the bootgraphs look a bit dissimilar, but that's the point, the first one has a bunch of arbitrary delays in it that cause it to look very different) This reduces my kernel boot time by about 20% Signed-off-by: NArjan van de Ven <arjan@linux.intel.com> Cc: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Signed-off-by: NGreg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>

This patch (as1013) was suggested by David Woodhouse; it fixes a race in the driver core. If a device is unregistered at the same time as its driver is unloaded, the driver's code pages may be unmapped while the remove method is still running. The calls to get_driver() and put_driver() were intended to prevent this, but they don't work if the driver's module count has already dropped to 0. Instead, the patch keeps the device on the driver's list until after the remove method has returned. This forces the necessary synchronization to occur.
