Subject: Re: [PATCH v3] clk: imx8qxp: Defer instead of failing probe

Hi Peng,

Thanks for pointing that out, I missed it. I will submit a v4.
Yes, the issue only happens when fw_devlink is disabled. I believe this is because devlink generates the device dependency graphs and only probes this device when all the dependencies are met. When the devlink is disabled this dependency is not respect as far as probing order goes, so it can happen that the device is probed when the clock parent is yet to be probed.

Best regards,
Diogo Silva

Did you meet issue with fw_devlink disabled?

The change is not enough, you also need to handle
        ret = imx_lpcg_parse_clks_from_dt(pdev, np);
        if (!ret)
                return 0;
->
        ret = imx_lpcg_parse_clks_from_dt(pdev, np);
        if (!ret)
                return 0;
        if (ret == -EPROBE_DEFER)
                return ret;

Regards,
Peng.
