[PATCH] coresight: fix trace ID search skipping pass-through NoC devices
From: Jie Gan
Date: Mon Aug 17 2026 - 04:51:03 EST
coresight_path_assign_trace_id() only treats a trace_id of 0 as "this
device has no ID assignment, keep searching downstream". Pass-through
NoC links such as itnoc (qcom,coresight-itnoc) intentionally return
-EOPNOTSUPP from their .trace_id callback since they have no ATID
register to program, but that negative value falls through to the
IS_VALID_CS_TRACE_ID() check and is rejected, aborting the whole path
with -EINVAL before the real trace ID owner further downstream is
ever reached.
This breaks enabling any source whose path traverses an itnoc, e.g.
writing 1 to tpdm/enable_source for a TPDM fails with:
sh: write error: Invalid argument
Skip devices that return -EOPNOTSUPP the same way as devices that
return 0, so the search continues to the next device on the path.
