From 84d0c27d6233a9ba0578b20f5a09701eb66cee42 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tetsuo Handa Date: Mon, 7 May 2018 19:10:31 +0900 Subject: driver core: Don't ignore class_dir_create_and_add() failure. syzbot is hitting WARN() at kernfs_add_one() [1]. This is because kernfs_create_link() is confused by previous device_add() call which continued without setting dev->kobj.parent field when get_device_parent() failed by memory allocation fault injection. Fix this by propagating the error from class_dir_create_and_add() to the calllers of get_device_parent().

Give the FW_LOADER kconfig documentation some love with more up to date developments and recommendations. While at it, wrap the FW_LOADER code into its own menu to compartmentalize and make it clearer which components really are part of the FW_LOADER.

Since there was no contextual information logged, I needed to attach kgdb to determine the culprit (the wmi-bmof driver in my case). The BUG_ON() was added in commit f48f3febb2cb ("driver-core: do not register a driver with bus_type not registered"). Instead of running into a BUG_ON() we print an error message identifying the, likely faulty, driver but continue booting.

The devices on the buses can be accessed directly without additinal configuration required. This type of bus is represented as "simple-bus". In some platforms, we name "soc" with "simple-bus" attribute and many devices are hooked under it described in DT (device tree). In commit bf74ad5bc417 ("Hold the device's parent's lock during probe and remove") to solve USB subsystem lock sequence since USB device's characteristic. Thus "soc" needs to be locked whenever a device and driver's probing happen under "soc" bus. During this period, an async driver tries to probe a device which is under the "soc" bus would be blocked until previous driver finish the probing and release "soc" lock. And the next probing under the "soc" bus need to wait for async finish. Because of that, driver's async probe for init time improvement will be shadowed. Since many devices don't have USB devices' characteristic, they actually don't need parent's lock. Thus, we introduce a lock flag in bus_type struct and driver core would lock the parent lock base on the flag. For USB, we set this flag in usb_bus_type to keep original lock behavior in driver core. Async probe could have more benefit after this patch.
