Subject: [PATCH RFC 1/2] of: property: fw_devlink: Follow GPIO nexus maps
Date: Wed, 02 Sep 2026 13:41:39 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260902-fw-devlink-nexus-ready-v1-1-68fe1996e78a@toradex.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260902-fw-devlink-nexus-ready-v1-0-68fe1996e78a@toradex.com>

From: Ernest Van Hoecke <ernest.vanhoecke@toradex.com>

GPIO consumers use of_parse_phandle_with_args_map() to resolve specifiers
through gpio-map properties. fw_devlink instead parses GPIO properties as
direct phandle references, so it records the nexus node as the supplier
rather than the mapped GPIO provider.

A nexus is a translation node, not the GPIO provider, and need not be
populated as a device. The resulting fwnode link can therefore remain
unresolved and indefinitely defer the consumer while
device_links_check_suppliers() waits for the nexus.

Use the map-aware parser for all supported GPIO property spellings. This
makes fw_devlink resolve the same provider as the GPIO consumer API. Direct
GPIO references continue to work because the map-aware parser returns the
original provider when no gpio-map property is present.

Add OF unittest coverage for mapped and direct GPIO suppliers, including
the deprecated singular and unprefixed property spellings.

Fixes: 7f00be96f125 ("of: property: Add device link support for interrupt-parent, dmas and -gpio(s)")
