This allows an OS to do a better job at ordering initialization and suspend/resume of the devices in a dependency cycle.

This property does not make a device (that's previously not a + provider) into a provider. It simply downgrades an existing provider to a + post device initialization provider. + + A device can list its providers in devicetree using one or more of the + standard devicetree bindings. By default, it is assumed that the provider + device can be initialized before the consumer device is initialized. + + However, that assumption cannot be made when there are cyclic dependencies + between devices. Since each device is a provider (directly or indirectly) of + the others in the cycle, there is no guaranteed safe order for initializing + the devices in a cycle. We can try to initialize them in an arbitrary order + and eventually successfully initialize all of them, but that doesn't always + work well. + + For example, say, + * The device tree has the following cyclic dependency X -> Y -> Z -> X (where + -> denotes "depends on"). + * But X is not needed to fully initialize Z (X might be needed only when a + specific functionality is requested post initialization). + + If all the other -> are mandatory initialization dependencies, then trying to + initialize the devices in a loop (or arbitrarily) will always eventually end + up with the devices being initialized in the order Z, Y and X. + + However, if Y is an optional provider for X (where X provides limited + functionality when Y is not initialized and providing its services), then + trying to initialize the devices in a loop (or arbitrarily) could end up with + the devices being initialized in the following order: + + * Z, Y and X - All devices provide full functionality + * Z, X and Y - X provides partial functionality + * X, Z and Y - X provides partial functionality + + However, we always want to initialize the devices in the order Z, Y and X + since that provides the full functionality without interruptions. + + One alternate option that might be suggested is to have the driver for X + notice that Y became available at a later point and adjust the functionality + it provides. However, other userspace applications could have started using X + with the limited functionality before Y was available and it might not be + possible to transparently transition X or the users of X to full + functionality while X is in use. + + Similarly, when it comes to suspend (resume) ordering, it's unclear which + device in a dependency cycle needs to be suspended/resumed first and trying + arbitrary orders can result in system crashes or instability. + + Explicitly calling out which link in a cycle needs to be broken when + determining the order, simplifies things a lot, improves efficiency, makes + the behavior more deterministic and maximizes the functionality that can be + provided without interruption. + + This property is used to provide this additional information between devices + in a cycle by telling which provider(s) is not needed for initializing the + device that lists this property. + + In the example above, Z would list X as a post-init-providers and the + initialization dependency would become X -> Y -> Z -/-> X. So the best order + to initialize them becomes clear: Z, Y and then X. + +select: true + +properties: + post-init-providers: + # One or more providers can be marked as post initialization provider + description: + List of phandles to providers that are not needed for initializing or + resuming this device. + $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/phandle-array + items: + maxItems: 1 + +additionalProperties: true + +examples: + - | + gcc: clock-controller@1000 { + compatible = "vendor,soc4-gcc", "vendor,soc1-gcc"; + reg = <0x1000 0x80>; + clocks = <&dispcc 0x1>; + #clock-cells = <1>; + post-init-providers = <&dispcc>; + }; + dispcc: clock-controller@2000 { + compatible = "vendor,soc4-dispcc", "vendor,soc1-dispcc"; + reg = <0x2000 0x80>; + clocks = <&gcc 0xdd>; + #clock-cells = <1>; + }; diff --git a/MAINTAINERS b/MAINTAINERS index 9ed4d3868539..feec740239c9 100644 --- a/MAINTAINERS +++ b/MAINTAINERS @@ -6060,12 +6060,6 @@ S: Maintained F: drivers/base/devcoredump.c F: include/linux/devcoredump.h -DEVICE DEPENDENCY HELPER SCRIPT -M: Saravana Kannan -L: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org -S: Maintained -F: scripts/dev-needs.sh - DEVICE DIRECT ACCESS (DAX) M: Dan Williams M: Vishal Verma @@ -8300,6 +8294,13 @@ F: include/linux/firewire.h F: include/uapi/linux/firewire*.h F: tools/firewire/ +FIRMWARE DEVICE LINK (fw_devlink) +M: Saravana Kannan +L: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org +S: Maintained +F: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/post-init-providers.yaml +F: scripts/dev-needs.sh + FIRMWARE FRAMEWORK FOR ARMV8-A M: Sudeep Holla L: linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org (moderated for non-subscribers)
