When all devices that could probe have finished probing (based on deferred_probe_timeout configuration or late_initcall() when !CONFIG_MODULES), this parameter controls what to do with devices that haven't yet received their sync_state() calls. fw_devlink.sync_state=strict is the default and the driver core will continue waiting on all consumers of a device to probe successfully before sync_state() is called for the device. This is the default behavior since calling sync_state() on a device when all its consumers haven't probed could make some systems unusable/unstable. When this option is selected, we also print the list of devices that haven't had sync_state() called on them by the time all devices the could probe have finished probing. fw_devlink.sync_state=timeout will cause the driver core to give up waiting on consumers and call sync_state() on any devices that haven't yet received their sync_state() calls. This option is provided for systems that won't become unusable/unstable as they might be able to save power (depends on state of hardware before kernel starts) if all devices get their sync_state().

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.
