Subject: [PATCH] cxl/test: Update mock memdev array before calling platform_device_add()
Date: Fri, 06 Mar 2026 22:28:19 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260306-update_array_before_adding_mock_memdev-v1-1-a1a6af0952f1@zohomail.com> (raw)
CXL test environment hits the following error sometimes.
cxl_mem mem9: endpoint7 failed probe
All mock memdevs are platform firmware devices added by cxl_test module,
and cxl_test module also provides a platform device driver for them to
create a memdev device to CXL subsystem. cxl_test module uses
cxl_rcd/mem_single/mem arrays to store different types of mock memdevs.
CXL drivers calls registered mock functions for a mock memdev by
checking if a given memdev is in these arrays.
When cxl_test module adds these mock memdevs, it always calls
platform_device_add() before adding them to a suitable mock memdev
array. However, there is a small window where CXL drivers calls mock
function for a added memdev before it added to a mock memdev array. In
above case, cxl endpoint driver considers a added memdev was not a mock
memdev, then calling devm_cxl_endpoint_decoders_setup() for it rather
than mock_endpoint_decoders_setup().
An appropriate solution is that adding a new mock memdev to a mock
memdev array before calling platform_device_add() for it. It can
guarantee the new mock memdev is visible to CXL subsystem.
