Since commit 9e644284ab81 ("dm: core: Report bootph-pre-ram/sram node as
pre-reloc after relocation"), bootph-pre-ram doesn't make U-Boot proper
bind the device before relocation.

While this is usually not much of an issue, it is when there's a lookup
for devices by code running before the relocation. Such is the case of
env_init() which calls env_driver_lookup() which calls
env_get_location() which is a weak symbol and may call
arch_env_get_location() also a weak symbol. Those are two functions that
may traverse UCLASS to find some devices (e.g.
board/theobroma-systems/common/common.c:arch_env_get_location()).

This sounds like we need to update arch_env_get_location() instead of enable mmc driver

before relocate, because you we don't really need the mmc driver works here, there is no

access requirement to mmc at this point, right?


All Rockchip SoCs except RK3588(S) and RK356x have it done this way, a little bit of consistency wouldn't hurt :)

I need to be able to find out if the device that was used to load U-Boot proper is an MMC device so that I can tell arch_env_get_location() to return ENVL_MMC; in that case.

For that, I've used uclass_find_device_by_ofnode() which parses the list of devices registered in the UCLASS_MMC (for that scenario). I assume the only requirement is that the device needs to be bound, not probed (haven't checked). If there's another way to do this **properly**, I'm all ears. I would likely need to do the same for the SPI controllers but since none of our RK3588-based products have SPI-NOR, I don't need those (but it works on RK3399 just fine).

I still think there's value in having consistency between all Rockchip SoCs (and if applicable to other SoC vendors, then those as well). We could still do both though, have this and then fix the need for requiring sdmmc/sdhci devices to be bound/probed for env_init() (arch_env_get_location()) to work.

What is bothering you in enabling those drivers in U-Boot proper before relocation?

Cheers,
Quentin
