Linux kernel source tree
1a8c251cff
The blamed commit has broken probing on
arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/fsl-ls1028a.dtsi when &enetc_port0
(PCI function 0) has status = "disabled".
Background: pci_scan_slot() has logic to say that if the function 0 of a
device is absent, the entire device is absent and we can skip the other
functions entirely. Traditionally, this has meant that
pci_bus_read_dev_vendor_id() returns an error code for that function.
However, since the blamed commit, there is an extra confounding
condition: function 0 of the device exists and has a valid vendor id,
but it is disabled in the device tree. In that case, pci_scan_slot()
would incorrectly skip the entire device instead of just that function.
In the case of NXP LS1028A, status = "disabled" does not mean that the
PCI function's config space is not available for reading. It is, but the
Ethernet port is just not functionally useful with a particular SerDes
protocol configuration (0x9999) due to pinmuxing constraints of the Soc.
So, pci_scan_slot() skips all other functions on the ENETC ECAM
(enetc_port1, enetc_port2, enetc_mdio_pf3 etc) when just enetc_port0 had
to not be probed.
There is an additional regression introduced by the change, caused by
its fundamental premise. The enetc driver needs to run code for all PCI
functions, regardless of whether they're enabled or not in the device
tree. That is no longer possible if the driver's probe function is no
longer called. But Rob recommends that we move the of_device_is_available()
detection to dev->match_driver, and this makes the PCI fixups still run
on all functions, while just probing drivers for those functions that
are enabled. So, a separate change in the enetc driver will have to move
the workarounds to a PCI fixup.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
