When insmod zynqmp-dpsub.ko after rmmod it, system will hang with the
error log as below:

root@xilinx-zynqmp:~# insmod zynqmp-dpsub.ko

[ 94.023404] Console: switching to colour dummy device 80x25
root@xilinx-zynqmp:~# insmod zynqmp-dpsub.ko
<hang here>

This is because that in zynqmp_dp_probe it tries to access some DP
registers while the DP controller is still in the reset state. When
running "rmmod zynqmp_dpsub", zynqmp_dp_reset(dp, true) in
zynqmp_dp_phy_exit is called to force the DP controller into the reset
state. Then insmod will call zynqmp_dp_probe to write to the DP registers,
but at this moment the DP controller isn't brought out of the reset state
since the function zynqmp_dp_reset(dp, false) is called later and this
will result the system hang.

Releasing the reset to DP controller before any read/write operation to it
will fix this issue.

This change looks good to me.

ret = zynqmp_dp_phy_probe(dp);
if (ret)
return ret;
But shouldn't we call zynqmp_dp_reset(dp, true) here ? Or rather, call
it in the error path at the end of the function, with a goto label.

Thank you for the suggestions.

zynqmp_dp_reset(dp, true) should be added in the error path, I will add this in the V2 patch.


For symmetry, should we also move the zynqmp_dp_reset() call from
zynqmp_dp_phy_exit() to zynqmp_dp_remove() ?

Yes, I will move it out of zynqmp_dp_phy_exit and to zynqmp_dp_remove() in the V2 patch.

Thanks,
