The OPP core manages various resources, e.g. clocks or interconnect paths. These resources are looked up when the OPP table is allocated once dev_pm_opp_get_opp_table() is called the first time (either directly or indirectly through one of the many helper functions). At this point, the resources may not be available yet, i.e. looking them up will result in -EPROBE_DEFER. Unfortunately, dev_pm_opp_get_opp_table() is currently unable to propagate this error code since it only returns the allocated OPP table or NULL. This means that all consumers of the OPP core are required to make sure that all necessary resources are available. Usually this happens by requesting them, checking the result and releasing them immediately after. For example, we have added "dev_pm_opp_of_find_icc_paths(dev, NULL)" to several drivers now just to make sure the interconnect providers are ready before the OPP table is allocated. If this call is missing, the OPP core will only warn about this and then attempt to continue without interconnect. This will eventually fail horribly, e.g.: cpu cpu0: _allocate_opp_table: Error finding interconnect paths: -517 ... later ... of: _read_bw: Mismatch between opp-peak-kBps and paths (1 0) cpu cpu0: _opp_add_static_v2: opp key field not found cpu cpu0: _of_add_opp_table_v2: Failed to add OPP, -22 This example happens when trying to use interconnects for a CPU OPP table together with qcom-cpufreq-nvmem.c. qcom-cpufreq-nvmem calls dev_pm_opp_set_supported_hw(), which ends up allocating the OPP table early. To fix the problem with the current approach we would need to add yet another call to dev_pm_opp_of_find_icc_paths(dev, NULL). But actually qcom-cpufreq-nvmem.c has nothing to do with interconnects... This commit attempts to make this more robust by allowing dev_pm_opp_get_opp_table() to return an error pointer. Fixing all the usages is trivial because the function is usually used indirectly through another helper (e.g. dev_pm_opp_set_supported_hw() above). These other helpers already return an error pointer. The example above then works correctly because set_supported_hw() will return -EPROBE_DEFER, and qcom-cpufreq-nvmem.c already propagates that error. It should also be possible to remove the remaining usages of "dev_pm_opp_of_find_icc_paths(dev, NULL)" from other drivers as well. Note that this commit currently only handles -EPROBE_DEFER for the clock/interconnects within _allocate_opp_table(). Other errors are just ignored as before. Eventually those should be propagated as well.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
