Marek,
Were you able to reproduce this as well with the board you enabled
DM_RNG for? If it does work fine what dtb were you using... perhaps
there is something in its u-boot.dtsi that we need?
The error -EPFNOSUPPORT is interesting and helps point to the only
place it can be where the comment says the strange errno is to make
this easier to find:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/u-boot/latest/source/drivers/core/uclass.c#L70:
if (!uc_drv) {
debug("Cannot find uclass for id %d: please add the
UCLASS_DRIVER() declaration for this UCLASS_... id\n",
id);
/*
* Use a strange error to make this case easier to find. When
* a uclass is not available it can prevent driver model from
* starting up and this failure is otherwise hard to debug.
*/
return -EPFNOSUPPORT;
}
I'm not very familiar with the dm driver binding - does the
U-BOOT_DRIVER usage in drivers/crypto/fsl/rng.c need to be refactored
to use UCLASS_DRIVER for it to be usable in both SPL and U-Boot?
Honestly I don't know why we need DM_RNG in SPL anyway and we could
just add support for disabling it there to avoid unwanted bloat.
