The related dts looks like: gpio0: gpio@2400 { compatible = "snps,dw-apb-gpio"; #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <0>; porta: gpio-port@0 { compatible = "snps,dw-apb-gpio-port"; gpio-controller; #gpio-cells = <2>; ngpios = <32>; reg = <0>; }; }; device_foo { status = "okay" ...; reset-gpio = <, 0, GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>; }; If I change the reset-gpio property to use another kind of gpio phandle, e.g gpio expander, then device_foo can be probed successfully. The gpio expander dt node looks like: expander3: gpio@44 { compatible = "fcs,fxl6408"; pinctrl-names = "default"; pinctrl-0 = <_pmux>; reg = <0x44>; gpio-controller; #gpio-cells = <2>; interrupt-parent = <>; interrupts = <23 IRQ_TYPE_NONE>; interrupt-controller; #interrupt-cells = <2>; }; The common pattern looks like the devlink can't cope with suppliers from child dt node. fw_devlink doesn't have any problem dealing with child devices being suppliers. The problem with your case is that the drivers/gpio/gpio-dwapb.c driver directly parses the child nodes and never creates struct devices for them. If you have a node with compatible string, fw_devlink expects you to create and probe a struct device for it. So change your driver to add the child devices as devices instead of just parsing the node directly and doing stuff with it. Either that, or stop putting "compatible" string in a node if you don't plan to actually treat it as a device -- but that's too late for this driver (it needs to be backward compatible). So change the driver to add of_platform_populate() and write a driver that probes "snps,dw-apb-gpio-port". Thanks for the information. The "snps,dw-apb-gpio-port" is never used, so I just sent out a series to remove it. I'd actually prefer that you fix the kernel code to actually use it. So that fw_devlink can be backward compatible (Older DT + new kernel). The change is pretty trivial (I just have time to do it for you). I agree the change is trivial, but it will add some useless LoCs like below. It's not useless if it preserves backward compatibility with DT. I'm not sure whether this is acceptable.So add GPIO and DT maintainers to comment. Hi Linus, Rob, Could you please comment? A simple introduction of the problem: As pointed out by Saravana, "gpio-dwapb.c driver directly parses the child nodes and never creates struct devices for them. If you have a node with compatible string, fw_devlink expects you to create and probe a struct device for it", so once we set fw_devlink=on, then any users of gpio-dwapb as below won't be probed. device_foo { status = "okay" ...; reset-gpio = <, 0, GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>; }; The compatible string "snps,dw-apb-gpio-port" is never used, but it's in the dt-binding since the dw gpio mainlined. I believe the every dw apb users just copy the compatible string in to soc dtsi. So I submit a series to remove the unused "snps,dw-apb-gpio-port" https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/10/14/1186 But this will break Older DT + new kernel with fw_devlink on. Which solution is better?

I'm not sure whether this is acceptable.So add GPIO and DT maintainers to comment. Hi Linus, Rob, Could you please comment? A simple introduction of the problem: As pointed out by Saravana, "gpio-dwapb.c driver directly parses the child nodes and never creates struct devices for them. If you have a node with compatible string, fw_devlink expects you to create and probe a struct device for it", so once we set fw_devlink=on, then any users of gpio-dwapb as below won't be probed. device_foo { status = "okay" ...; reset-gpio = <, 0, GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>; }; The compatible string "snps,dw-apb-gpio-port" is never used, but it's in the dt-binding since the dw gpio mainlined. I believe the every dw apb users just copy the compatible string in to soc dtsi. So I submit a series to remove the unused "snps,dw-apb-gpio-port" https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/10/14/1186 But this will break Older DT + new kernel with fw_devlink on. Which solution is better? If the following patch is acceptable, I can submit it once 5.10-rc1 is out. thanks diff --git a/drivers/gpio/gpio-dwapb.c b/drivers/gpio/gpio-dwapb.c index 1d8d55bd63aa..b8e012e48b59 100644 --- a/drivers/gpio/gpio-dwapb.c +++ b/drivers/gpio/gpio-dwapb.c @@ -19,6 +19,7 @@ #include #include #include +#include #include #include #include @@ -694,6 +695,10 @@ static int dwapb_gpio_probe(struct platform_device *pdev) } platform_set_drvdata(pdev, gpio); + err = devm_of_platform_populate(dev); + if (err) + goto out_unregister; + return 0; out_unregister: @@ -820,6 +825,25 @@ static struct platform_driver dwapb_gpio_driver = { module_platform_driver(dwapb_gpio_driver); +static const struct of_device_id dwapb_port_of_match[] = { + { .compatible = "snps,dw-apb-gpio-port" }, + { /*

So that fw_devlink can be backward compatible (Older DT + new kernel). The change is pretty trivial (I just have time to do it for you). -Saravana

The problem with your case is that the drivers/gpio/gpio-dwapb.c driver directly parses the child nodes and never creates struct devices for them. If you have a node with compatible string, fw_devlink expects you to create and probe a struct device for it. So change your driver to add the child devices as devices instead of just parsing the node directly and doing stuff with it. Either that, or stop putting "compatible" string in a node if you don't plan to actually treat it as a device -- but that's too late for this driver (it needs to be backward compatible). So change the driver to add of_platform_populate() and write a driver that probes "snps,dw-apb-gpio-port". -Saravana
