fw_devlink expects DT device nodes with "compatible" property to have
struct devices created for them. Since the connector node might not be
populated as a device, mark it as such so that fw_devlink knows not to
wait on this fwnode being populated as a struct device.
Without this patch, USB functionality can be broken on some boards.

deferred_probe_timeout kernel commandline parameter allows probing of
consumer devices if the supplier devices don't have any drivers.
fw_devlink=on will indefintely block probe() calls on a device if all
its suppliers haven't probed successfully. This completely skips calls
to driver_deferred_probe_check_state() since that's only called when a
.probe() function calls framework APIs. So fw_devlink=on breaks
deferred_probe_timeout.
deferred_probe_timeout in its current state also ignores a lot of
information that's now available to the kernel. It assumes all suppliers
that haven't probed when the timer expires (or when initcalls are done
on a static kernel) will never probe and fails any calls to acquire
resources from these unprobed suppliers.
However, this assumption by deferred_probe_timeout isn't true under many
conditions. For example:
- If the consumer happens to be before the supplier in the deferred
probe list.
- If the supplier itself is waiting on its supplier to probe.
This patch fixes both these issues by relaxing device links between
devices only if the supplier doesn't have any driver that could match
with (NOT bound to) the supplier device. This way, we only fail attempts
to acquire resources from suppliers that truly don't have any driver vs
suppliers that just happen to not have probed yet.

Fix this by updating device links that can be updated and dropping

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

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.

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.

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.

The device link device's name was of the form:
<supplier-dev-name>--<consumer-dev-name>
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:
<supplier-bus-name>:<supplier-dev-name>--<consumer-bus-name>:<consumer-dev-name>

If the device passed as the target (second argument) to
device_is_dependent() is not completely registered (that is, it has
been initialized, but not added yet), but the parent pointer of it
is set, it may be missing from the list of the parent's children
and device_for_each_child() called by device_is_dependent() cannot
be relied on to catch that dependency.
For this reason, modify device_is_dependent() to check the ancestors
of the target device by following its parent pointer in addition to
the device_for_each_child() walk.

When the system is powered off or rebooted, devices are not detached
from their PM domain. This results in ACPI PM not being invoked and
hence PowerResouce _OFF method not being invoked for any of the
devices. Because the ACPI power resources are not turned off in case
of poweroff and reboot, it violates the power sequencing requirements
which impacts the reliability of the devices over the lifetime of the
platform. This is currently observed on all Chromebooks using ACPI.
In order to solve the above problem, this change detaches a device
from its PM domain whenever it is shutdown. This action is basically
analogous to ->remove() from driver model perspective. Detaching the
device from its PM domain ensures that the ACPI PM gets a chance to
turn off the power resources for the device thus complying with its
power sequencing requirements.

Cyclic dependencies in some firmware was one of the last remaining
reasons fw_devlink=on couldn't be set by default. Now that cyclic
dependencies don't block probing, set fw_devlink=on by default.
Setting fw_devlink=on by default brings a bunch of benefits (currently,
only for systems with device tree firmware):
* Significantly cuts down deferred probes.
* Device probe is effectively attempted in graph order.
* Makes it much easier to load drivers as modules without having to
worry about functional dependencies between modules (depmod is still
needed for symbol dependencies).
If this patch prevents some devices from probing, it's very likely due
to the system having one or more device drivers that "probe"/set up a
device (DT node with compatible property) without creating a struct
device for it. If we hit such cases, the device drivers need to be
fixed so that they populate struct devices and probe them like normal
device drivers so that the driver core is aware of the devices and their
status. See [1] for an example of such a case.

Sometimes, firmware can have cyclic dependencies between devices. But
one or more of those dependencies in the cycle are false dependencies
that don't affect the probing of the device.
fw_devlink can detect some of these false dependencies using logic. But
when it can't, we don't want to block probing of the devices in this
cyclic dependency.
So, instead of using normal device links for the devices in this cycle,
we need to switch to SYNC_STATE_ONLY device links between these devices.
This is so that sync_state() callback correctness is still maintained
while we allow these device to probe.
This is functionally similar to switching to fw_devlink=permissive just
for the devices in the cycle.

This flag can never be added to a device link that already exists and
doesn't have the flag set. It can only be added when a device link is
created for the first time or it can be maintained if the device link
already has the it set.
This flag will be used for marking device links created ONLY by
inferring dependencies from data and NOT from explicit action by device
drivers/frameworks. This will be useful in the future when we need to
deal with cycles in dependencies inferred from firmware.

The current implementation of fw_devlink is very inefficient because it
tries to get away without creating fwnode links in the name of saving
memory usage. Past attempts to optimize runtime at the cost of memory
usage were blocked with request for data showing that the optimization
made significant improvement for real world scenarios.
We have those scenarios now. There have been several reports of boot
time increase in the order of seconds in this thread [1]. Several OEMs
and SoC manufacturers have also privately reported significant
(350-400ms) increase in boot time due to all the parsing done by
fw_devlink.
So this patch uses all the setup done by the previous patches in this
series to refactor fw_devlink to be more efficient. Most of the code has
been moved out of firmware specific (DT mostly) code into driver core.
This brings the following benefits:
- Instead of parsing the device tree multiple times during bootup,
fw_devlink parses each fwnode node/property only once and creates
fwnode links. The rest of the fw_devlink code then just looks at these
fwnode links to do rest of the work.
- Makes it much easier to debug probe issue due to fw_devlink in the
future. fw_devlink=on blocks the probing of devices if they depend on
a device that hasn't been added yet. With this refactor, it'll be very
easy to tell what that device is because we now have a reference to
the fwnode of the device.
- Much easier to add fw_devlink support to ACPI and other firmware
types. A refactor to move the common bits from DT specific code to
driver core was in my TODO list as a prerequisite to adding ACPI
support to fw_devlink. This series gets that done.

To check if a device is still waiting for its supplier devices to be
added, we used to check if the devices is in a global
waiting_for_suppliers list. Since the global list will be deleted in
subsequent patches, this patch stops using this check.
Instead, this patch uses a more device specific check. It checks if the
device's fwnode has any fwnode links that haven't been converted to
device links yet.

This function is a wrapper around fwnode_operations.add_links().
This function parses each node in a fwnode tree and create fwnode links
for each of those nodes. The information for creating the fwnode links
(the supplier and consumer fwnode) is obtained by parsing the properties
in each of the fwnodes.
This function also ensures that no fwnode is parsed more than once by
marking the fwnodes as parsed.

SYNC_STATE_ONLY device links only affect the behavior of sync_state()
callbacks. Specifically, they prevent sync_state() only callbacks from
being called on a device if one or more of its consumers haven't probed.
So, creating a SYNC_STATE_ONLY device link from an already probed
consumer is useless. So, don't allow creating such device links.

Add support for creating supplier-consumer links between fwnodes. It is
intended for internal use the driver core and generic firmware support
code (eg. Device Tree, ACPI), so it is simple by design and the API
provided is limited.

This reverts commit 716a7a25969003d82ab738179c3f1068a120ed11.
The fw_devlink_pause/resume() APIs added by the commit being reverted
were a first cut attempt at optimizing boot time. But these APIs don't
fully solve the problem and are very fragile (can only be used for the
top level devices being added). This series replaces them with a much
better optimization that works for all device additions and also has the
benefit of reducing the complexity of the firmware (DT, EFI) specific
code and abstracting out common code to driver core.

Commit cec72f3efc62 ("driver core: Don't do deferred probe in parallel
with kernel_init thread") was fixing a commit 716a7a259690 ("driver
core: fw_devlink: Add support for batching fwnode parsing"). Since the
commit being fixed itself is going to be reverted, the fix can also be

This field rename was done to reuse defer_syc list head for multiple

for defer sync. So revert this patch to avoid conflicts with the other

This reverts commit 2451e746478a6a6e981cfa66b62b791ca93b90c8.
fw_devlink_pause/resume() was an incomplete attempt at boot time
optimization. That's going to get replaced by a much better optimization
at the end of the series. Since fw_devlink_pause/resume() is going away,
changes made for that can also go away.

The device_links_purge() function (called from device_del()) tries to
remove the links.needs_suppliers list entry, but it's using
list_del(), hence it doesn't initialize after the removal. This is OK
for normal cases where device_del() is called via device_destroy().
However, it's not guaranteed that the device object will be really
deleted soon after device_del(). In a minor case like HD-audio codec
reconfiguration that re-initializes the device after device_del(), it
may lead to a crash by the corrupted list entry.
As a simple fix, replace list_del() with list_del_init() in order to
make the list intact after the device_del() call.

There's a potential deadlock with the following cycle:
wfs_lock --> device_links_lock --> kn->count
Fix this by simply dropping the lock around a list_empty() check that's
just exported to a sysfs file. The sysfs file output is an instantaneous
check anyway and the lock doesn't really add any protection.

It appears that firmware nodes can be shared between devices. In such case
when a (child) device is about to be deleted, its firmware node may be shared
and ACPI_COMPANION_SET(..., NULL) call for it breaks the secondary link
of the shared primary firmware node.
In order to prevent that, check, if the device has a parent and parent's
firmware node is shared with its child, and avoid crashing the link.

Behind primary and secondary we understand the type of the nodes
which might define their ordering. However, if primary node gone,
we can't maintain the ordering by definition of the linked list.
Thus, by ordering secondary node becomes first in the list.
But in this case the meaning of it is still secondary (or auxiliary).
The type of the node is maintained by the secondary pointer in it:
secondary pointer Meaning
NULL or valid primary node
ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) secondary node
So, if by some reason we do the following sequence of calls
set_primary_fwnode(dev, NULL);
set_primary_fwnode(dev, primary);
we should preserve secondary node.
This concept is supported by the description of set_primary_fwnode()
along with implementation of set_secondary_fwnode(). Hence, fix
the commit c15e1bdda436 to follow this as well.

"A series of patches addressing warnings produced by make htmldocs.
This includes:
- kernel-doc markup fixes
- ReST fixes
- Updates at the build system in order to support newer versions of
the docs build toolchain (Sphinx)
After this series, the number of html build warnings should reduce
significantly, and building with Sphinx 3.1 or later should now be
supported (although it is still recommended to use Sphinx 2.4.4).
As agreed with Jon, I should be sending you a late pull request by the
end of the merge window addressing remaining issues with docs build,
as there are a number of warning fixes that depends on pull requests
that should be happening along the merge window.
The end goal is to have a clean htmldocs build on Kernel 5.10.
PS. It should be noticed that Sphinx 3.0 is not currently supported,
as it lacks support for C domain namespaces. Such feature, needed in
order to document uAPI system calls with Sphinx 3.x, was added only on
Sphinx 3.1"

Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
"The big new thing is the fully lockless ringbuffer implementation,
including the support for continuous lines. It will allow to store and
read messages in any situation wihtout the risk of deadlocks and
without the need of temporary per-CPU buffers.
The access is still serialized by logbuf_lock. It synchronizes few
more operations, for example, temporary buffer for formatting the
message, syslog and kmsg_dump operations. The lock removal is being
discussed and should be ready for the next release.
The continuous lines are handled exactly the same way as before to
avoid regressions in user space. It means that they are appended to
the last message when the caller is the same. Only the last message
can be extended.
The data ring includes plain text of the messages. Except for an
integer at the beginning of each message that points back to the
descriptor ring with other metadata.
The dictionary has to stay. journalctl uses it to filter the log. It
allows to show messages related to a given device. The dictionary
values are stored in the descriptor ring with the other metadata.
This is the first part of the printk rework as discussed at Plumbers
2019, see https://lore.kernel.org/r/87k1acz5rx.fsf@linutronix.de. The
next big step will be handling consoles by kthreads during the normal
system operation. It will require special handling of situations when
the kthreads could not get scheduled, for example, early boot,
suspend, panic.
Other changes:
- Add John Ogness as a reviewer for printk subsystem. He is author of
the rework and is familiar with the code and history.
- Fix locking in serial8250_do_startup() to prevent lockdep report.
- Few code cleanups"
