Ulf reported an issue[1] with fw_devlink. This series tries to fix that
issue.

I replicated a similar set up on my end and I confirmed these patches work.

Ulf, mind testing this?

Thanks,
Saravana

Again, this looks like a nice solution to the problem.

One question though. The Kconfig SIMPLE_PM_BUS, should probably be
"default y" - or something along those lines to make sure fw_devlink
works as expected.

Kind regards
Uffe

I would love for SIMPLE_PM_BUS to go away, and all of its functionality
to be usurped by the standard simple-bus handling.

In the modern world, everything uses power management and Runtime
PM, and the distinction between "simple-bus" and "simple-pm-bus"
is purely artificial.

What if SIMPLE_PM_BUS *is* the standard simple-bus handling?
Insert "I'm the captain now" meme.

I think SIMPLE_PM_BUS config should just go away and we should compile
the driver in if CONFIG_OF is selected.

No objections from my side.  In fact that's how I wanted it to be
from the beginning, but the DT people wanted a separate compatible
value (and a separate driver).  The only difference is the presence
of pm_runtime_*() calls.

I think there would be no need for a separate driver, if the standard
simple-bus handling would take care of it.

I'm not sure about the history there. For now, I'm just extending this
driver to take care of simple-bus too.

I think it's not that easy, but maybe I am wrong.

Today we have an opt-in way of supporting runtime PM (and power
management). In most cases it's up to drivers or subsystem level code
to decide if runtime PM should be enabled for the device.

Would it really be okay to enable runtime PM for all of them?

Kind regards

You're talking about the software policy side.

From my PoV, the issue is that this decision is leaked into DT, through
the different compatible values ("simple-pm-bus" vs. "simple-bus").

Yes, I do agree with you there.

On the other hand, it's probably not the only place where it's used as
"software configuration", so I don't have a big issue with it.
