If my understanding is right, then Nak for this patch. It'll break a lot of probes. TL;DR is that stateful/managed device links don't make sense for devices that are never probed/bound to a driver. I plan to improve device links to try and accommodate these cases nicely, but that's in my TO DO list. Until that's completed, this patch will break stuff. -Saravana

I'm fairly certain you are hitting this issue because the PHY device doesn't have a compatible property. And so the device link dependency is propagated up to the mdio bus. But busses as suppliers aren't good because busses never "probe". PHY seems to be one of those cases where it's okay to have the compatible property but also okay to not have it. You can confirm my theory by checking for the list of suppliers under ff64c000.mdio-multiplexer. You'd see mdio@0 (ext_mdio) and if you look at the "status" file under the folder it should be "dormant". If you add a compatible property that fits the formats a PHY node can have, that should also fix your issue (not the solution though). I'll send out a fix this week (once you confirm my analysis).

So some more background, which might help you get an idea what is going on here, and what you will need to implement. There are a number of different ways an mdio bus driver can come into existence. They can be classical devices, which are described in device tree and probed in the normal way. Most of the mdio bus drivers in driver/net/mdio are like this, and they have documented bindings, and compatible strings, e.g. Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/marvell-orion-mdio.txt Multiplexers, which are probably a subclass of the above classical devices. They have documented binds and compatible strings. They link to another MDIO bus, and some other resource to switch the multiplexor, e.g, GPIOs, a MMIO register, a Linux multiplexer. They can be embedded inside some other device, typically an Ethernet controller, but also a Ethernet switch. In this case, the parent device should have an MDIO node in its device tree. An example would be the freescale FEC Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/fsl,fec.yaml So if you are trying to fulfil dependencies for this sort of mdio bus, you need to probe the FEC driver, and as a side effect, the MDIO bus driver will pop into existence.

There are two registers in standard locations which give you a vendor and product ID. We use that to find the correct driver. You only need a compatible when things are not so simple. 1) The IDs are wrong. Some silicon vendors do stupid things 2) Chicken/egg problems, you cannot read the ID registers until you load the driver and some resource is enabled. 3) It is a C45 devices, e.g. part of clause 45 of 802.3, which requires a different protocol to be talked over the bus. So the compatible string tells you to talk C45 to get the IDs. 4) It is not a PHY, but some sort of other MDIO device, and hence there are no ID registers. Andrew

For all the cases of PHYs that currently don't need any compatible string, requiring a compatible string of type "ethernet-phy-standard" would have been nice. That would have made PHYs consistent with the general DT norm of "you need a compatible string to be matched with the device". Anyway, it's too late to do that now. So I'll have to deal with this some other way (I have a bunch of ideas, so it's not the end of the world). > You only need a compatible when things are not so simple. > > 1) The IDs are wrong.

Yeah, I was digging through of_mdiobus_child_is_phy() when I was doing the mdio-mux fixes and noticed this. But I missed/forgot the mdiobus doesn't probe part when I sent out the phy-handle patch. -Saravana

How does this help you? You cannot match that against anything? How do you handle PCI and USB devices? e.g. arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6qdl-zii-rdu2.dtsi &pcie { pinctrl-names = "default"; pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_pcie>; reset-gpio = <&gpio7 12 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>; status = "okay"; host@0 { reg = <0 0 0 0 0>; #address-cells = <3>; #size-cells = <2>; i210: i210@0 { reg = <0 0 0 0 0>; }; }; }; There is an intel i210 Ethernet control on the PCIe bus. There is no compatible string, none is needed. This is no different to a PHY. Andrew

This is not the first time the need for compatible strings for MDIO devices has come up, but MDIO devices are special (evidently). I should have taken a harder stance on this which should be simply, if your device requires having a node in DT, then it requires a compatible string. Rob

The main fix for your issue would be to teach fw_devlink that phy-handle always points to the actual DT node that'll become a device even if it doesn't have a compatible property. I'll send that out later. -Saravana
