Subject: [PATCH v2 5/9] net: ipconfig: Relax fw_devlink if we need to mount a network rootfs
Date: Wed,  1 Jun 2022 00:07:01 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220601070707.3946847-6-saravanak@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220601070707.3946847-1-saravanak@google.com>

If there are network devices that could probe without some of their
suppliers probing and those network devices are needed to mount a
network rootfs, then fw_devlink=on might break that usecase by blocking
the network devices from probing by the time IP auto config starts.

So, if no network devices are available when IP auto config is enabled
and we have a network rootfs, make sure fw_devlink doesn't block the
probing of any device that has a driver and then retry finding a network
device.
