Using kobject_get_path() means a dynamic memory allocation gets done, which
doesn't work on a PREEMPT_RT based configuration while holding genpd's raw
spinlock.

To fix the problem, let's convert into using the simpler dev_name(). This
means the information about the path doesn't get presented in debugfs, but
hopefully this shouldn't be an issue.

Thanks for your patch, which is now commit 9094e53ff5c86ebe ("pmdomain:
core: Use dev_name() instead of kobject_get_path() in debugfs")
in pmdomain/next.

While some of the old names didn't even fit in 50 characters, the new
names need much less space, so perhaps this is a good opportunity to
decrease the table width?

Sure, it seems reasonable! Do you want to send a patch?

I started looking into it.  Then I noticed that on some systems
(e.g. TI am335x) the device names may have a longer format than
the typical <unit-address>.<nodename>. So I wanted to verify on
BeagleBone Black, but recent kernels crash during early boot.
Apparently that platform was broken between v6.8 and v6.9-rc1.
And during bisection, I encountered 3 different failure modes...

To be continued...

The longest generic node names documented in the Devicetree
Specification are "air-pollution-sensor" and "interrupt-controller"
(both counting 20 characters), so a typical device name needs 8
(32-bit unit address) + 1 (dot) + 20 = 29 characters.
However, I assume some devices lie outside the 32-bit address space,
and thus need more space?

With the BeagleBone Black boot issue fixed:
"/devices/platform/ocp/5600fe00.target-module"
resp. "/devices/platform/ocp/44c00000.interconnect/44c00000.interconnect:segment@200000/44e3e074.target-module"
are now shortened to "5600fe00.target-module" resp. "44e3e074.target-module".
However, "/devices/platform/ocp/48000000.interconnect/48000000.interconnect:segment@200000/48000000.interconnect:segment@200000:target-module@0"
is shortened to "48000000.interconnect:segment@200000:target-module@0",
which is still longer than the old column width...

Should we really care about those silly long names? And are those
really a problem from genpd debugfs point of view?

That said, I don't have a suggestion for a new value of the table
width, but I am certainly open to adjusting it to whatever you
propose.
