A problem about modprobe vc4 failed is triggered with the following log
given:
[ 420.327987] Error: Driver 'vc4_hvs' is already registered, aborting...
[ 420.333904] failed to register platform driver vc4_hvs_driver [vc4]: -16
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'vc4': Device or resource busy
The reason is that vc4_drm_register() returns platform_driver_register()
directly without checking its return value, if platform_driver_register()
fails, it returns without unregistering all the vc4 drivers, resulting the
vc4 can never be installed later.
A simple call graph is shown as below:
vc4_drm_register()
platform_register_drivers() # all vc4 drivers are registered
platform_driver_register()
driver_register()
bus_add_driver()
priv = kzalloc(...) # OOM happened
# return without unregister drivers
Fixing this problem by checking the return value of
platform_driver_register() and do platform_unregister_drivers() if
error happened.
