Update all the code that use soc_device_match because add support for
soc_device_match returning -EPROBE_DEFER.

"if (!IS_ERR_OR_NULL(match))" in all places.

A single patch might be difficult to accept for all components, a each
maintainer will probably want to have a say on their subsystem?

I would suggest to split these for a non-RFC version; a this will really
need to be case-by-case handling.

(English does not parse here for me)

I've only commented a couple of places in the code itself, but this
doesn't seem to add much support for errors, just sweep the problem
under the rug.

This function handles errors, I would recommend returning the error as
is if soc_device_match returned one so the probe can be retried later.

Same, return the error.
Assuming an error means no match will just lead to hard to debug
problems because the driver potentially assumed the wrong device when
it's just not ready yet.

I'm not sure what you intended to do, but !match1 already means there is
no error so the original code is identical.

In this case ipmmu_device_is_allowed does not allow errors so this is
one of the "difficult" drivers that require slightly more thinking.
It is only called in ipmmu_of_xlate which does return errors properly,
so in this case the most straightforward approach would be to make
ipmmu_device_is_allowed return an int and forward errors as well.



...
This is going to need quite some more work to be acceptable, in my
opinion, but I think it should be possible.

When running on R-Car H3, there will always be a match device, as
the SoC device is registered early.

In general, this is very hard to do, IMHO. Some drivers may be used on
multiple platforms, some of them registering an SoC device, some of
them not registering an SoC device.  So there is no way to know the
difference between "SoC device not registered, intentionally", and
"SoC device not yet registered".

soc_device_match() should only be used as a last resort, to identify
systems that cannot be identified otherwise.  Typically this is used for
quirks, which should only be enabled on a very specific subset of
systems.  IMHO such systems should make sure soc_device_match()
is available early, by registering their SoC device early.

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,

Hm, good point, I was probably a bit too optimistic if there are devices
which don't register any soc yet have drivers which want one; I don't
see how to make the difference indeed... And that does mean we can't
just defer all the time.

I definitely agree there, my suggestion to defer was only because I know
of no other way to influence the ordering of drivers loading reliably
and gave up on soc being init'd early.

In this particular case the problem is that since 7d981405d0fd ("soc:
imx8m: change to use platform driver") the soc probe tries to use the
nvmem driver for ocotp fuses for imx8m devices, which isn't ready yet.
So soc loading gets pushed back to the end of the list because it gets
defered and other drivers relying on soc_device_match get confused
because they wrongly think a device doesn't match a quirk when it
actually does.

If there is a way to ensure the nvmem driver gets loaded before the soc,
that would also solve the problem nicely, and avoid the need to mess
with all the ~50 drivers which use it.


Is there a way to control in what order drivers get loaded? Something in
the dtb perhaps?

In some cases, you can use the device_link infrastructure to deal
with dependencies between devices. Not sure if this would help
in your case, but have a look at device_link_add() etc in drivers/base/core.c

For built-in drivers, load order depends on the initcall level and
link order (how things are lined listed in the Makefile hierarchy).

For loadable modules, this is up to user space in the end.

Which of the drivers in this scenario are loadable modules?

This is wrong. We can not make the decision below without having access
to attr. The function may wrongly return false if soc_device_match()
returns an error.

I'll need to actually try to convince myself but if creating the link
forces driver registration then it should be workable.

All the drivers involved in my case are built-in (nvmem, soc and final
soc_device_match consumer e.g. caam_jr that crashes the kernel if soc is
not identified properly).

I frankly don't like the idea of moving nvmem/ above soc/ in
drivers/Makefile as a "solution" to this (especially as there is one
that seems to care about what soc they run on...), so I'll have a look
at links first, hopefully that will work out.

Ok, in that case you may have a chance to just adapt the initcall
levels. This is somewhat fragile if someone else already relies
on a particular order, but it's an easy one-line change to change
a driver e.g. from module_init() or device_initcall() to arch_initcall().

Right, that would be way more fragile.

I think the main problem in this case is the caam driver that really
should not look into the particular SoC type or even machine
compatible string. This is something we can do as a last resort
for compatibility with busted devicetree files, but it appears that
this driver does it as the primary method for identifying different
hardware revisions. I would suggest fixing the binding so that
each SoC that includes one of these devices has a soc specific
compatible string associated with the device that the driver can
use as the primary way of identifying the device.

We probably need to keep the old logic around for old dtb files,
but there can at least be a comment next to that table that
discourages people from adding more entries there.

hardware revisions. I would suggest fixing the binding so that
each SoC that includes one of these devices has a soc specific
compatible string associated with the device that the driver can
use as the primary way of identifying the device.

We probably need to keep the old logic around for old dtb files,
but there can at least be a comment next to that table that
discourages people from adding more entries there.

this does not sound right...

if (!soc || IS_ERR(soc))
or
if (IS_ERR_OR_NULL(soc))
is even better.

There might be a clever macro for it, but:

return soc ? PTR_ERR(soc) : -ENODEV;
