2026-06-02driver core: Use system_percpu_wq instead of system_wqNathan Chancellor
Commit 1137838865bf ("driver core: Use mod_delayed_work to prevent lost deferred probe work") added a use of system_wq, which is deprecated in favor of system_percpu_wq added by commit 128ea9f6ccfb ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq"). An upcoming warning in the workqueue tree flags this with: workqueue: work func deferred_probe_timeout_work_func enqueued on deprecated workqueue. Use system_{percpu|dfl}_wq instead. Switch to system_percpu_wq to clear up the warning.

2026-05-29Merge patch series "rust: device: Higher-Ranked Lifetime Types for device ↵Danilo Krummrich
drivers" Danilo Krummrich <dakr@kernel.org> says: Currently, Rust device drivers access device resources such as PCI BAR mappings and I/O memory regions through Devres<T>. Devres::access() provides zero-overhead access by taking a &Device<Bound> reference as proof that the device is still bound. Since a &Device<Bound> is available in almost all contexts by design, Devres is mostly a type-system level proof that the resource is valid, but it can also be used from scopes without this guarantee through its try_access() accessor. This works well in general, but has a few limitations: - Every access to a device resource goes through Devres::access(), which despite zero cost, adds boilerplate to every access site. - Destructors do not receive a &Device<Bound>, so they must use try_access(), which can fail. In practice the access succeeds if teardown ordering is correct, but the type system can't express this, forcing drivers to handle a failure path that should never be taken. - Sharing a resource across components (e.g. passing a BAR to a sub-component) requires Arc<Devres<T>>. - Device references must be stored as ARef<Device> rather than plain &Device borrows. These limitations stem from the driver's bus device private data being 'static -- the driver struct cannot borrow from the device reference it receives in probe(), even though it structurally cannot outlive the device binding. This series introduces Higher-Ranked Lifetime Types (HRT) for Rust device drivers. An HRT is a type that is generic over a lifetime -- it does not have a fixed lifetime, but can be instantiated with any lifetime chosen by the caller. Bus driver traits use a Generic Associated Type (GAT) type Data<'bound> to introduce the lifetime on the private data, rather than parameterizing the Driver trait itself. This avoids a driver trait global lifetime and avoids the need for ForLt for bus device private data, making the bus implementations much simpler. ForLt is only needed for auxiliary registration data, where the lifetime is not introduced by a trait callback but must be threaded through Registration. With HRT, driver structs carry a lifetime parameter tied to the device binding scope -- the interval of a bus device being bound to a driver. Device resources like pci::Bar<'bound> and IoMem<'bound> are handed out with this lifetime, so the compiler enforces at build time that they do not escape the binding scope. Before: struct MyDriver { pdev: ARef<pci::Device>, bar: Devres<pci::Bar<BAR_SIZE>>, } let io = self.bar.access(dev)?; io.read32(OFFSET); After: struct MyDriver<'bound> { pdev: &'bound pci::Device, bar: pci::Bar<'bound, BAR_SIZE>, } self.bar.read32(OFFSET); Lifetime-parameterized device resources can be put into a Devres at any point via Bar::into_devres() / IoMem::into_devres(), providing the exact same semantics as before. This is useful for resources shared across subsystem boundaries where revocation is needed. This also synergizes with the upcoming self-referential initialization support in pin-init, which allows one field of the driver struct to borrow another during initialization without unsafe code. The same pattern is applied to auxiliary device registration data as a first example beyond bus device private data. Registration<F: ForLt> can hold lifetime-parameterized data tied to the parent driver's binding scope. Since the auxiliary bus guarantees that the parent remains bound while the auxiliary device is registered, the registration data can safely borrow the parent's device resources. More generally, binding resource lifetimes to a registration scope applies to every registration that is scoped to a driver binding -- auxiliary devices, class devices, IRQ handlers, workqueues. A follow-up series extends this to class device registrations, starting with DRM, so that class device callbacks (IOCTLs, etc.) can safely access device resources through the separate registration data bound to the registration's lifetime without Devres indirection. Thanks to Gary for coming up with the ForLt implementation; thanks to Alice for the early discussions around lifetime-parameterized private data that helped shape the direction of this work.

2026-05-27rust: driver core: drop drvdata before devres releaseDanilo Krummrich
Move the post_unbind_rust callback before devres_release_all() in device_unbind_cleanup(). With drvdata() removed, the driver's bus device private data is only accessible by the owning driver itself. It is hence safe to drop the driver's bus device private data before devres actions are released. This reordering is the key enabler for Higher-Ranked Lifetime Types (HRT) in Rust device drivers -- it allows driver structs to hold direct references to devres-managed resources, because the bus device private data (and with it all such references) is guaranteed to be dropped while the underlying devres resources are still alive. Without this change, devres resources would be freed first, leaving the driver's bus device private data with dangling references during its destructor.

mod_delayed_work() unconditionally queues the work even when it wasn't previously pending, which can fire the timeout prematurely or restart it after it already fired. Add a delayed_work_pending() guard to restore the originally intended semantics. Premature firing calls fw_devlink_drivers_done() before all built-in drivers have registered, causing fw_devlink to prematurely relax device links for suppliers whose drivers haven't loaded yet.

2026-05-22driver core: Use mod_delayed_work to prevent lost deferred probe workZhang Yuwei
The deferred_probe_timeout_work may be permanently and unexpectedly canceled when deferred_probe_extend_timeout() executes concurrently. Starting with deferred_probe_timeout_work pending, the problem can occur after the following sequence: CPU0 CPU1 deferred_probe_extend_timeout -> cancel_delayed_work() => true deferred_probe_extend_timeout -> cancel_delayed_work() -> __cancel_work() -> try_grab_pending() -> schedule_delayed_work() -> queue_delayed_work_on() (Since the pending bit is grabbed, it just returns without queuing) -> set_work_pool_and_clear_pending() (This __cancel_work() returns false and the work will never be queued again) The root cause is that the WORK_STRUCT_PENDING_BIT of the work_struct is set temporarily in __cancel_work() (via try_grab_pending()). This transient state prevents the work_struct from being successfully queued by another CPU. To fix this, replace the original non-atomic cancel and schedule mechanism with mod_delayed_work(). This ensures the modification is handled atomically and guarantees that the work is not lost.

2026-04-11driver core: Don't let a device probe until it's readyDouglas Anderson
The moment we link a "struct device" into the list of devices for the bus, it's possible probe can happen. This is because another thread can load the driver at any time and that can cause the device to probe. This has been seen in practice with a stack crawl that looks like this [1]: really_probe() __driver_probe_device() driver_probe_device() __driver_attach() bus_for_each_dev() driver_attach() bus_add_driver() driver_register() __platform_driver_register() init_module() [some module] do_one_initcall() do_init_module() load_module() __arm64_sys_finit_module() invoke_syscall() As a result of the above, it was seen that device_links_driver_bound() could be called for the device before "dev->fwnode->dev" was assigned. This prevented __fw_devlink_pickup_dangling_consumers() from being called which meant that other devices waiting on our driver's sub-nodes were stuck deferring forever. It's believed that this problem is showing up suddenly for two reasons: 1. Android has recently (last ~1 year) implemented an optimization to the order it loads modules [2]. When devices opt-in to this faster loading, modules are loaded one-after-the-other very quickly. This is unlike how other distributions do it. The reproduction of this problem has only been seen on devices that opt-in to Android's "parallel module loading". 2. Android devices typically opt-in to fw_devlink, and the most noticeable issue is the NULL "dev->fwnode->dev" in device_links_driver_bound(). fw_devlink is somewhat new code and also not in use by all Linux devices. Even though the specific symptom where "dev->fwnode->dev" wasn't assigned could be fixed by moving that assignment higher in device_add(), other parts of device_add() (like the call to device_pm_add()) are also important to run before probe. Only moving the "dev->fwnode->dev" assignment would likely fix the current symptoms but lead to difficult-to-debug problems in the future. Fix the problem by preventing probe until device_add() has run far enough that the device is ready to probe. If somehow we end up trying to probe before we're allowed, __driver_probe_device() will return -EPROBE_DEFER which will make certain the device is noticed. In the race condition that was seen with Android's faster module loading, we will temporarily add the device to the deferred list and then take it off immediately when device_add() probes the device. Instead of adding another flag to the bitfields already in "struct device", instead add a new "flags" field and use that. This allows us to freely change the bit from different thread without worrying about corrupting nearby bits (and means threads changing other bit won't corrupt us).

2026-03-30driver core: Make deferred_probe_timeout default a Kconfig optionHans de Goede
Code using driver_deferred_probe_check_state() differs from most EPROBE_DEFER handling in the kernel. Where other EPROBE_DEFER handling (e.g. clks, gpios and regulators) waits indefinitely for suppliers to show up, code using driver_deferred_probe_check_state() will fail after the deferred_probe_timeout. This is a problem for generic distro kernels which want to support many boards using a single kernel build. These kernels want as much drivers to be modular as possible. The initrd also should be as small as possible, so the initrd will *not* have drivers not needing to get the rootfs. Combine this with waiting for a full-disk encryption password in the initrd and it is pretty much guaranteed that the default 10s timeout will be hit, causing probe() failures when drivers on the rootfs happen to get modprobe-d before other rootfs modules providing their suppliers. Make the default timeout configurable from Kconfig to allow distro kernel configs where many of the supplier drivers are modules to set the default through Kconfig.

Currently, __device_set_driver_override() handles clearing the override via empty string ("") and newline ("\n") in two separate paths. The "\n" case also performs an unnecessary memory allocation and immediate free. Simplify the logic by initializing 'new' to NULL and only allocating memory if the string length remains non-zero after stripping the trailing newline.

2026-03-17driver core: generalize driver_override in struct deviceDanilo Krummrich
Currently, there are 12 busses (including platform and PCI) that duplicate the driver_override logic for their individual devices. All of them seem to be prone to the bug described in [1]. While this could be solved for every bus individually using a separate lock, solving this in the driver-core generically results in less (and cleaner) changes overall. Thus, move driver_override to struct device, provide corresponding accessors for busses and handle locking with a separate lock internally. In particular, add device_set_driver_override(), device_has_driver_override(), device_match_driver_override() and generalize the sysfs store() and show() callbacks via a driver_override feature flag in struct bus_type. Until all busses have migrated, keep driver_set_override() in place. Note that we can't use the device lock for the reasons described in [2].

2026-03-03Revert "driver core: enforce device_lock for driver_match_device()"Danilo Krummrich
This reverts commit dc23806a7c47 ("driver core: enforce device_lock for driver_match_device()") and commit 289b14592cef ("driver core: fix inverted "locked" suffix of driver_match_device()"). While technically correct, there is a major downside to this approach: When a device is already present in the system and a driver is registered on the same bus, we iterate over all devices registered on this bus to see if one of them matches. If we come across an already bound one where the corresponding driver crashed while holding the device lock (e.g. in probe()) we can't make any progress anymore. However, drivers are typically the least tested code in the kernel and hence it is a case that is likely to happen regularly. Besides hurting developer ergonomics, it potentially decreases chances of shutting things down cleanly and obtaining logs in production environments as well [1]. This came up in the context of a firewire bug, which only in combination with the reverted commit, caused the machine to hang [2]. Additionally, it was observed in [3]. Thus, revert commit dc23806a7c47 ("driver core: enforce device_lock for driver_match_device()") and add a brief note clarifying that an implementer of struct bus_type must not expect match() to be called with the device lock held.

2026-01-16driver core: enforce device_lock for driver_match_device()Gui-Dong Han
Currently, driver_match_device() is called from three sites. One site (__device_attach_driver) holds device_lock(dev), but the other two (bind_store and __driver_attach) do not. This inconsistency means that bus match() callbacks are not guaranteed to be called with the lock held. Fix this by introducing driver_match_device_locked(), which guarantees holding the device lock using a scoped guard. Replace the unlocked calls in bind_store() and __driver_attach() with this new helper. Also add a lock assertion to driver_match_device() to enforce this guarantee. This consistency also fixes a known race condition. The driver_override implementation relies on the device_lock, so the missing lock led to the use-after-free (UAF) reported in Bugzilla for buses using this field. Stress testing the two newly locked paths for 24 hours with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING and CONFIG_LOCKDEP enabled showed no UAF recurrence and no lockdep warnings.

2026-01-16rust: driver: drop device private data post unbindDanilo Krummrich
Currently, the driver's device private data is allocated and initialized from driver core code called from bus abstractions after the driver's probe() callback returned the corresponding initializer. Similarly, the driver's device private data is dropped within the remove() callback of bus abstractions after calling the remove() callback of the corresponding driver. However, commit 6f61a2637abe ("rust: device: introduce Device::drvdata()") introduced an accessor for the driver's device private data for a Device<Bound>, i.e. a device that is currently bound to a driver. Obviously, this is in conflict with dropping the driver's device private data in remove(), since a device can not be considered to be fully unbound after remove() has finished: We also have to consider registrations guarded by devres - such as IRQ or class device registrations - which are torn down after remove() in devres_release_all(). Thus, it can happen that, for instance, a class device or IRQ callback still calls Device::drvdata(), which then runs concurrently to remove() (which sets dev->driver_data to NULL and drops the driver's device private data), before devres_release_all() started to tear down the corresponding registration. This is because devres guarded registrations can, as expected, access the corresponding Device<Bound> that defines their scope. In C it simply is the driver's responsibility to ensure that its device private data is freed after e.g. an IRQ registration is unregistered. Typically, C drivers achieve this by allocating their device private data with e.g. devm_kzalloc() before doing anything else, i.e. before e.g. registering an IRQ with devm_request_threaded_irq(), relying on the reverse order cleanup of devres. Technically, we could do something similar in Rust. However, the resulting code would be pretty messy: In Rust we have to differentiate between allocated but uninitialized memory and initialized memory in the type system. Thus, we would need to somehow keep track of whether the driver's device private data object has been initialized (i.e. probe() was successful and returned a valid initializer for this memory) and conditionally call the destructor of the corresponding object when it is freed. This is because we'd need to allocate and register the memory of the driver's device private data *before* it is initialized by the initializer returned by the driver's probe() callback, because the driver could already register devres guarded registrations within probe() outside of the driver's device private data initializer. Luckily there is a much simpler solution: Instead of dropping the driver's device private data at the end of remove(), we just drop it after the device has been fully unbound, i.e. after all devres callbacks have been processed. For this, we introduce a new post_unbind() callback private to the driver-core, i.e. the callback is neither exposed to drivers, nor to bus abstractions. This way, the driver-core code can simply continue to conditionally allocate the memory for the driver's device private data when the driver's initializer is returned from probe() - no change needed - and drop it when the driver-core code receives the post_unbind() callback.

2025-11-26driver core: Check drivers_autoprobe for all added devicesVincent Liu
When a device is hot-plugged, the drivers_autoprobe sysfs attribute is not checked (at least for PCI devices). This means that drivers_autoprobe is not working as intended, e.g. hot-plugged PCI devices will still be autoprobed and bound to drivers even with drivers_autoprobe disabled. The problem likely started when device_add() was removed from pci_bus_add_device() in commit 4f535093cf8f ("PCI: Put pci_dev in device tree as early as possible") which means that the check for drivers_autoprobe which used to happen in bus_probe_device() is no longer present (previously bus_add_device() calls bus_probe_device()). Conveniently, in commit 91703041697c ("PCI: Allow built-in drivers to use async initial probing") device_attach() was replaced with device_initial_probe() which faciliates this change to push the check for drivers_autoprobe into device_initial_probe(). Make sure all devices check drivers_autoprobe by pushing the drivers_autoprobe check into device_initial_probe(). This will only affect devices on the PCI bus for now as device_initial_probe() is only called by pci_bus_add_device() and bus_probe_device(), but bus_probe_device() already checks for autoprobe, so callers of bus_probe_device() should not observe changes on autoprobing. Note also that pushing this check into device_initial_probe() rather than device_attach() makes it only affect automatic probing of drivers (e.g. when a device is hot-plugged), userspace can still choose to manually bind a driver by writing to drivers_probe sysfs attribute, even with autoprobe disabled. Any future callers of device_initial_probe() will respect the drivers_autoprobe sysfs attribute, which is the intended purpose of drivers_autoprobe.

2025-11-26driver core: replace use of system_unbound_wq with system_dfl_wqMarco Crivellari
Currently if a user enqueue a work item using schedule_delayed_work() the used wq is "system_wq" (per-cpu wq) while queue_delayed_work() use WORK_CPU_UNBOUND (used when a cpu is not specified). The same applies to schedule_work() that is using system_wq and queue_work(), that makes use again of WORK_CPU_UNBOUND. This lack of consistentcy cannot be addressed without refactoring the API. This continues the effort to refactor workqueue APIs, which began with the introduction of new workqueues and a new alloc_workqueue flag in: commit 128ea9f6ccfb ("workqueue: Add system_percpu_wq and system_dfl_wq") commit 930c2ea566af ("workqueue: Add new WQ_PERCPU flag") Switch to using system_dfl_wq because system_unbound_wq is going away as part of a workqueue restructuring.

2025-07-07PM: domains: Detach on device_unbind_cleanup()Claudiu Beznea
The dev_pm_domain_attach() function is typically used in bus code alongside dev_pm_domain_detach(), often following patterns like: static int bus_probe(struct device *_dev) { struct bus_driver *drv = to_bus_driver(dev->driver); struct bus_device *dev = to_bus_device(_dev); int ret; // ... ret = dev_pm_domain_attach(_dev, true); if (ret) return ret; if (drv->probe) ret = drv->probe(dev); // ... } static void bus_remove(struct device *_dev) { struct bus_driver *drv = to_bus_driver(dev->driver); struct bus_device *dev = to_bus_device(_dev); if (drv->remove) drv->remove(dev); dev_pm_domain_detach(_dev); } When the driver's probe function uses devres-managed resources that depend on the power domain state, those resources are released later during device_unbind_cleanup(). Releasing devres-managed resources that depend on the power domain state after detaching the device from its PM domain can cause failures. For example, if the driver uses devm_pm_runtime_enable() in its probe function, and the device's clocks are managed by the PM domain, then during removal the runtime PM is disabled in device_unbind_cleanup() after the clocks have been removed from the PM domain. It may happen that the devm_pm_runtime_enable() action causes the device to be runtime- resumed. If the driver specific runtime PM APIs access registers directly, this will lead to accessing device registers without clocks being enabled. Similar issues may occur with other devres actions that access device registers. Add detach_power_off member to struct dev_pm_info, to be used later in device_unbind_cleanup() as the power_off argument for dev_pm_domain_detach(). This is a preparatory step toward removing dev_pm_domain_detach() calls from bus remove functions. Since the current PM domain detach functions (genpd_dev_pm_detach() and acpi_dev_pm_detach()) already set dev->pm_domain = NULL, there should be no issues with bus drivers that still call dev_pm_domain_detach() in their remove functions.

2023-03-10driver core: Add fw_devlink.sync_state command line paramSaravana Kannan
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().

When a driver registers with a bus, it will attempt to match with every device on the bus through the __driver_attach() function. Currently, if the bus_type.match() function encounters an error that is not -EPROBE_DEFER, __driver_attach() will return a negative error code, which causes the driver registration logic to stop trying to match with the remaining devices on the bus. This behavior is not correct; a failure while matching a driver to a device does not mean that the driver won't be able to match and bind with other devices on the bus.

2022-09-01driver core: Don't probe devices after bus_type.match() probe deferralIsaac J. Manjarres
Both __device_attach_driver() and __driver_attach() check the return code of the bus_type.match() function to see if the device needs to be added to the deferred probe list. After adding the device to the list, the logic attempts to bind the device to the driver anyway, as if the device had matched with the driver, which is not correct. If __device_attach_driver() detects that the device in question is not ready to match with a driver on the bus, then it doesn't make sense for the device to attempt to bind with the current driver or continue attempting to match with any of the other drivers on the bus. So, update the logic in __device_attach_driver() to reflect this. If __driver_attach() detects that a driver tried to match with a device that is not ready to match yet, then the driver should not attempt to bind with the device. However, the driver can still attempt to match and bind with other devices on the bus, as drivers can be bound to multiple devices. So, update the logic in __driver_attach() to reflect this.

In __driver_attach function, There are also AA deadlock problem, like the commit b232b02bf3c2 ("driver core: fix deadlock in __device_attach"). stack like commit b232b02bf3c2 ("driver core: fix deadlock in __device_attach"). list below: In __driver_attach function, The lock holding logic is as follows: ... __driver_attach if (driver_allows_async_probing(drv)) device_lock(dev) // get lock dev async_schedule_dev(__driver_attach_async_helper, dev); // func async_schedule_node async_schedule_node_domain(func) entry = kzalloc(sizeof(struct async_entry), GFP_ATOMIC); /* when fail or work limit, sync to execute func, but __driver_attach_async_helper will get lock dev as will, which will lead to A-A deadlock. */ if (!entry || atomic_read(&entry_count) > MAX_WORK) { func; else queue_work_node(node, system_unbound_wq, &entry->work) device_unlock(dev) As above show, when it is allowed to do async probes, because of out of memory or work limit, async work is not be allowed, to do sync execute instead. it will lead to A-A deadlock because of __driver_attach_async_helper getting lock dev. Reproduce: and it can be reproduce by make the condition (if (!entry || atomic_read(&entry_count) > MAX_WORK)) untenable, like below: [ 370.785650] "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.
