[PATCH] misc: fastrpc: create duplicate sessions after all CB probing
From: Vinayak Katoch
Date: Tue Jun 09 2026 - 06:40:28 EST
For ADSP, only a limited number of FastRPC context banks (CBs) are
available. Each CB supports a single session, which means only a few
processes can run on ADSP simultaneously. If all sessions are consumed
by fastrpc daemons, no session remains available when a user application
starts, causing the application to fail.
To address this limitation, a Device Tree change was used till now:
qcom,nsessions = <5>;
However, feedback from the upstream community indicated that this change
should not be made in the Device Tree. Instead, it was recommended to
handle this as a driver-level change.
Instead of duplicating sessions inline during fastrpc_cb_probe() using
the qcom,nsessions DT property, defer duplication until after
of_platform_populate() returns in fastrpc_rpmsg_probe(), at which point
all compute-CB child nodes have been probed and the session array is
fully populated.
For the ADSP domain, append FASTRPC_DUP_SESSIONS (4) copies of the
last probed session once of_platform_populate() succeeds. This keeps
the per-CB probe path simple and ensures duplicates are always derived
from a stable, fully-initialised session state.
The qcom,nsessions DT property is no longer consumed by the driver; the
binding and DT sources are left unchanged.
