From 35a672363ab3e8dfe4ebcadb4dd0b2d06bb85ebe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: John Stultz Date: Wed, 22 Apr 2020 20:32:45 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] driver core: Ensure wait_for_device_probe() waits until the deferred_probe_timeout fires In commit c8c43cee29f6 ("driver core: Fix driver_deferred_probe_check_state() logic"), we set the default driver_deferred_probe_timeout value to 30 seconds to allow for drivers that are missing dependencies to have some time so that the dependency may be loaded from userland after initcalls_done is set. However, Yoshihiro Shimoda reported that on his device that expects to have unmet dependencies (due to "optional links" in its devicetree), was failing to mount the NFS root. In digging further, it seemed the problem was that while the device properly probes after waiting 30 seconds for any missing modules to load, the ip_auto_config() had already failed, resulting in NFS to fail. This was due to ip_auto_config() calling wait_for_device_probe() which doesn't wait for the driver_deferred_probe_timeout to fire. This patch tries to fix the issue by creating a waitqueue for the driver_deferred_probe_timeout, and calling wait_event() to make sure driver_deferred_probe_timeout is zero in wait_for_device_probe() to make sure all the probing is finished. The downside to this solution is that kernel functionality that uses wait_for_device_probe(), will block until the driver_deferred_probe_timeout fires, regardless of if there is any missing dependencies. However, the previous patch reverts the default timeout value to zero, so this side-effect will only affect users who specify a driver_deferred_probe_timeout= value as a boot argument, where the additional delay would be beneficial to allow modules to load later during boot. Thanks to Geert for chasing down that ip_auto_config was why NFS was failing in this case! Cc: "David S. Miller" Cc: Alexey Kuznetsov Cc: Hideaki YOSHIFUJI Cc: Jakub Kicinski Cc: Rafael J.
