Do you have a commit hash for it? That should probably be used as a Fixes: tag. Or that change to dtc needs reverting because it breaks stuff. Andrew

In my mind, it's hard to understand the one property (snps,rx-queues-to-use) does have a limit for another nodes or properties, if it must work well, the dtc is better to do a abort, like #size-cells ? My personally question from a insigth of DTs but gmac, if it's not a good question, I can simply add a status = "okay" for the empty node and drop this patch. > Andrew
Adding device tree list. This is mostly a device tree issue, so the device tree Maintainers should be part of the discussion. > >On Fri, Apr 29, 2022 at 08:46:05AM +0800, Jianqun Xu wrote: > >> The driver use the value of property 'snps,rx-queues-to-use' to loop > >> same numbers child nodes as queues, such as: > >> > >> gmac { > >> rx-queues-config { > >> snps,rx-queues-to-use = <1>; > >> queue0 { > >> // nothing need here. > >> }; > >> }; > >> }; > >> > >> Since a patch for dtc from rockchip will delete all node without any > >> properties or child node, the queue0 node will be deleted, that caused > >> the driver fail to probe: > > > >Is this the in tree dtc?

So this has nothing to do with the kernel dtc, or the upstream dtc. This is only a 'vendor crap' dtc which has been hacked? Why should mainline care? Is there anything in the DT standard which says the compiler can optimise out empty properties? Andrew

Yes, it't nothing about what kind of dtc, does about what rule for properties, now the one property request another child node must exist and number of child node must equal to the value of the property, the #address-cells = <1>; #size-cells = <1>; does this but they are in special key words, the gmac has no likely key word. > > Andrew

The driver use the value of property 'snps,rx-queues-to-use' to loop same numbers child nodes as queues, such as: gmac { rx-queues-config { snps,rx-queues-to-use = <1>; queue0 { // nothing need here. }; }; }; Since a patch for dtc from rockchip will delete all node without any properties or child node, the queue0 node will be deleted, that caused the driver fail to probe: rk_gmac-dwmac: probe of ffa80000.ethernet failed with error -22 This patch try to support driver work well for DTs without setting for the child queue nodes and then have none child queue nodes.
