During bootstd scanning for bootdevs, if bootdev_hunt_drv() encounters a device not found error (e.g. ENOENT), let it return a successful status so that bootstd will continue scanning the next devices, not stopping prematurely.
Background: During scanning for bootflows, it's possible for bootstd to encounter a faulty device controller. Also when the same u-boot is used for another variant of the same board, some device controller such as SATA might not exist. I've found this issue while converting the Marvell Sheevaplug board to use bootstd. This board has 2 variants, the original Sheevaplug has MMC and USB only, but the later variant comes with USB, MMC, and eSATA ports. We have been using the same u-boot (starting with CONFIG_IDE and later with DM CONFIG_SATA) for both variants. This worked well with the old envs-scripting booting scheme. Signed-off-by: Tony Dinh <mibo...@gmail.com> --- Changes in v2: - Restore bootdev_next_prio() to the original. - Add a check in bootdev_hunt_drv(). If its descendant bootdev hunt driver function returns -ENOENT, set the hunt status to successful (this is the case where the device does not exist, or a bad device controller). - Update bootdev_hunter_func() docs to indicate that a return status -ENOENT is not an error, just a "device not found" status. - Set status of sata_rescan() to -ENOENT when the SATA device is not found. boot/bootdev-uclass.c | 2 +- drivers/ata/sata.c | 2 +- include/bootdev.h | 2 +- 3 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/boot/bootdev-uclass.c b/boot/bootdev-uclass.c index 44ae98a926..4926a50da8 100644 --- a/boot/bootdev-uclass.c +++ b/boot/bootdev-uclass.c @@ -784,7 +784,7 @@ static int bootdev_hunt_drv(struct bootdev_hunter *info, uint seq, bool show) if (info->hunt) { ret = info->hunt(info, show); log_debug(" - hunt result %d\n", ret); - if (ret) + if (ret && ret != -ENOENT) return ret; } std->hunters_used |= BIT(seq); diff --git a/drivers/ata/sata.c b/drivers/ata/sata.c index dcb5fcf476..64fc078bad 100644 --- a/drivers/ata/sata.c +++ b/drivers/ata/sata.c @@ -65,7 +65,7 @@ int sata_rescan(bool verbose) ret = uclass_find_first_device(UCLASS_AHCI, &dev); if (ret || !dev) { printf("Cannot find SATA device (err=%d)\n", ret); - return -ENOSYS; + return -ENOENT; } ret = device_remove(dev, DM_REMOVE_NORMAL); diff --git a/include/bootdev.h b/include/bootdev.h index b079a91b5b..35fa25aff1 100644 --- a/include/bootdev.h +++ b/include/bootdev.h @@ -65,7 +65,7 @@ struct bootdev_hunter; * * @info: Info structure describing this hunter * @show: true to show information from the hunter - * Returns: 0 if OK, -ve on error + * Returns: 0 if OK, -ENOENT on device not found, otherwise -ve on error */ typedef int (*bootdev_hunter_func)(struct bootdev_hunter *info, bool show); -- 2.39.2
