In attempting to optimize fw_devlink runtime, I introduced numerous cycle
detection bugs by foregoing cycle detection logic under specific
conditions. Each fix has further narrowed the conditions for optimization.
It's time to give up on these optimization attempts and just run the cycle
detection logic every time fw_devlink tries to create a device link.
The specific bug report that triggered this fix involved a supplier fwnode
that never gets a device created for it. Instead, the supplier fwnode is
represented by the device that corresponds to an ancestor fwnode.
In this case, fw_devlink didn't do any cycle detection because the cycle
detection logic is only run when a device link is created between the
devices that correspond to the actual consumer and supplier fwnodes.
With this change, fw_devlink will run cycle detection logic even when
creating SYNC_STATE_ONLY proxy device links from a device that is an
ancestor of a consumer fwnode.

Tomi,
Thanks for all the testing and debugging help! And do use
post-init-providers even with this patch to improve ordering
enforcement. I probably should change the cycle log from info to warn in
a separate patch :)
Greg,
I no longer have concerns about pulling this into 6.13. But we can give
a week or so to Geert/Francesco to do some additional testing.
Geert/Francesco,
If you want to test this patch, pull it in and compare the output of
the following:
ls -1 /sys/class/devlink
The only device links that should be missing with the patch should be
device links in a cycle that weren't detected before.
Also, if you notice any significant boot time increase with this change,
let me know.
Thanks,
Saravana

I've had this patch in one of my WIP branches for a while. Today I
started debugging a kmemleak in the branch, which I thought was related
to my changes. However, it ended up being this patch.
One of the drivers touched in my WIP branch is
drivers/media/i2c/ds90ub960.c. It does a i2c_new_client_device() and, at
remove time, i2c_unregister_device().
Without this patch, with some debug prints, I see that the newly created
i2c client has a kref count of 11, and when i2c_unregister_device() is
called, I see kref dropping to 0 and i2c_client_dev_release() being called.
With this patch, after i2c_new_client_device(), I see a kref of 16, and
after i2c_unregister_device(), a kref of 5 (and i2c_client_dev_release()
not called).
So five new refs were added, and not released... Any thoughts?
Tomi

After rebasing my work for the hotplug connector driver using device
tree overlays [0] on v6.13-rc1 I started getting these OF errors on
overlay removal:
OF: ERROR: memory leak, expected refcount 1 instead of 2, of_node_get()/of_node_put() unbalanced - destroy cset entry: attach overlay node /addon-connector/devices/panel-dsi-lvds

OF: ERROR: memory leak, expected refcount 1 instead of 2, of_node_get()/of_node_put() unbalanced - destroy cset entry: attach overlay node /addon-connector/devices/battery-charger

OF: ERROR: memory leak, expected refcount 1 instead of 2, of_node_get()/of_node_put() unbalanced - destroy cset entry: attach overlay node /addon-connector/devices/regulator-addon-3v3-sys
...and many more. Exactly one per each device in the overlay 'devices'
node, each implemented by a platform driver.
Bisecting found this patch is triggering these error messages, which
in fact disappear by reverting it.
I looked at the differences in dmesg and /sys/class/devlink/ in the
"good" and "bad" cases, and found almost no differences. The only
relevant difference is in cycle detection for the panel node, which was
expected, but nothing about all the other nodes like regulators.
Enabling debug messages in core.c also does not show significant
changes between the two cases, even though it's hard to be sure given
the verbosity of the log and the reordering of messages.
I suspect the new version of the cycle removal code is missing an
of_node_get() somewhere, but that is not directly visible in the patch
diff itself.
Any clues?

I collected some more info by adding a bit of logging for one of the
affected devices.
It looks like the of_node_get() and of_node_put() in the overlay
loading phase are the same, even though not completely in the same
order. So after overlay insertion we should have the same refcount with
and without your patch.
There is a difference on overlay removal however: an of_node_put() call
is absent with 6.13-rc1 code (errors emitted), and becomes present by
just reverting your patch (the "good" case). Here's the stack trace of
this call:
Call trace:
show_stack+0x20/0x38 (C)
dump_stack_lvl+0x74/0x90
dump_stack+0x18/0x28
of_node_put+0x50/0x70
platform_device_release+0x24/0x68
device_release+0x3c/0xa0
kobject_put+0xa4/0x118
device_link_release_fn+0x60/0xd8
process_one_work+0x158/0x3c0
worker_thread+0x2d8/0x3e8
kthread+0x118/0x128
ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20
So for some reason device_link_release_fn() is not leading to a
of_node_put() call after adding your patch.
Quick code inspection did not show any useful info for me to understand
more.
Ideas?

This overlay is adding an SPI device. In my overlay I don't have any
SPI devices, but I have I2C and other devices and I'm getting those
errors only about devices implemented by platform drivers. Not sure
that matters, but that's the first difference that came to mind.

Thanks for your patch, which is now commit bac3b10b78e54b7d ("driver
core: fw_devlink: Stop trying to optimize cycle detection logic") in
next-20241107 and later.

I gave it a try on all my boards, and compared the output on a few of
them, and everything looks fine.

Thanks for testing the series Geert!
And no noticeable boot time increases?

That's a bit hard to measure, as the serial console output easily takes
ten seconds.

Heads up. Greg has pulled this into driver-core git's
driver-core-testing branch. Which means in a week or two it'll get
into the actual driver-core-next branch. So, if you want to do
additional testing, you might want to jump on it soon.
