From e3245e4254e1e5caae24b33e203810db7307edfb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Bin Meng Date: Wed, 24 Oct 2018 06:36:38 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] video: simplefb: Remove DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC flag When a driver declares DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC flag, it wishes to be bound before relocation. However due to a bug in the DM core, the flag only takes effect when devices are statically declared via U_BOOT_DEVICE(). This bug has been fixed recently by commit "dm: core: Respect drivers with the DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC flag in lists_bind_fdt()", but with the fix, it has a side effect that all existing drivers that declared DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC flag will be bound before relocation now. This may expose potential boot failure on some boards due to insufficient memory during the pre-relocation stage. To mitigate this potential impact, the following changes are implemented: - Remove DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC flag in the driver, if the driver only supports configuration from device tree (OF_CONTROL) - Keep DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC flag in the driver only if the device is statically declared via U_BOOT_DEVICE() - Surround DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC flag with OF_CONTROL check, for drivers that support both statically declared devices and configuration from device tree Signed-off-by: Bin Meng Reviewed-by: Simon Glass --- drivers/video/simplefb.c | 1 - 1 file changed, 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/video/simplefb.c b/drivers/video/simplefb.c index 3b8da808bd..1679d20002 100644 --- a/drivers/video/simplefb.c +++ b/drivers/video/simplefb.c @@ -68,5 +68,4 @@ U_BOOT_DRIVER(simple_video) = { .id = UCLASS_VIDEO, .of_match = simple_video_ids, .probe = simple_video_probe, - .flags = DM_FLAG_PRE_RELOC, }; -- 2.39.5
