[PATCH 2/2] driver: core: add probe control driver
From: Nayeemahmed Badebade
Date: Wed Sep 11 2024 - 10:57:29 EST
Probe control driver framework allows deferring the probes of a group of
devices to an arbitrary time, giving the user control to trigger the probes
after boot. This is useful for deferring probes from builtin drivers that
are not required during boot and probe when user wants after boot.
This is achieved by adding a dummy device aka probe control device node
as provider to a group of devices(consumer nodes) in platform's device
tree. Consumers are the devices we want to probe after boot.
To establish control over consumer device probes, each consumer device node
need to refer the probe control provider node by the phandle.
'probe-control-supply' property is used for this.
Example:
// The node below defines a probe control device/provider node
prb_ctrl_dev_0: prb_ctrl_dev_0 {
compatible = "linux,probe-control";
};
// The node below is the consumer device node that refers to provider
// node by its phandle and a result will not be probed until provider
// node is probed.
pcie@1ffc000 {
reg = <0x01ffc000 0x04000>, <0x01f00000 0x80000>;
#address-cells = <3>;
#size-cells = <2>;
device_type = "pci";
ranges = <0x81000000 0 0 0x01f80000 0 0x00010000>,
<0x82000000 0 0x01000000 0x01000000 0 0x00f00000>;
probe-control-supply = <&prb_ctrl_dev_0>;
};
fw_devlink ensures consumers are not probed until provider is probed
successfully. The provider probe during boot returns -ENXIO and is not
re-probed again.
The driver provides debug interface /sys/kernel/debug/probe_control_status
for checking probe control status of registered probe control devices.
# cat /sys/kernel/debug/probe_control_status
prb_ctrl_dev_0: [not triggered]
Consumers: 1ffc000.pcie
Interface /sys/kernel/probe_control/trigger is provided for triggering
probes of the probe control devices. User can write to this interface to
trigger specific or all device probes managed by this driver.
Once the probe is triggered by user, provider probe control device is added
to deferred_probe_pending_list and driver_deferred_probe_trigger() is
triggered. This time the probe of probe control device will be
successful and its consumers will then be probed.
To trigger specific provider probe:
# echo prb_ctrl_dev_0 > /sys/kernel/probe_control/trigger
To trigger all registered provider probes
# echo all > /sys/kernel/probe_control/trigger
