Reset the list head after the reallocation because the list syscon_list
use allocated pointer and they are no more valid.
This patch avoid issue (crash) when syscon_node_to_regmap() is called
before and after reallocation.

Hi

This patch correct a crash see on v2018.11-rc1 with my board stm32mp1
for the command "reset".

The crash is a side effect of 2 patches

 sysreset: syscon: update regmap access to syscon

23471aed5c33e104d6fa64575932577618543bec
 board_f: Add reset status printing

With the first patch the syscon_node_to_regmap() is called
each time that the class sysreset_syscon is probed.

=> in v2018.09 probe is done only when reset is requested

NB: for stm32mp1, the node rcc_reboot in tagged pre-relocated to
    support reset in pre-reloc phases (allow panic).

With the second patch, U-Boot probes all the sysreset uclass in preloc
phase to allow to print the reset status, and the list is initialized
in board_f / pre-reloc:

-> print_resetinfo
--> uclass_first_device_err(UCLASS_SYSRESET, &dev);
---> syscon_reboot_probe()
----> syscon_node_to_regmap(node)
-----> of_syscon_register()
-------> list_add_tail(&syscon->list, &syscon_list);

During relocation, the content of syscon_list (static) is updated
but the list use pointers allocated by malloc in pre-reloc phasis

And when I execute the reset command
-> do_reset()
--> reset_cpu()
---> sysreset_walk_halt(SYSRESET_COLD);
----> loop on device UCLASS_SYSRESET
-----> syscon_reboot_probe()
------> syscon_node_to_regmap(node)
-------> list_for_each_entry(entry, &syscon_list, list)

I have a crash here because the pointer syscon_list.next is invalid.

I solve the issue by resetting the list after reloc and it is working
but I don't know if a more elegant solution exist
(keep the list in .bss section to be set to 0).

Regards

Patrick

We have a similar issue with the timer - we set gd->timer to NULL in initr_dm().

I am not 100% what is going on here, but using pre-reloc devices (i.e.
which were set up before relocation) after relocation is bad. We need
to avoid that.

The syscon_list struct should be in the syscon uclass, i.e. declared
as uclass priv data in UCLASS_DRIVER(syscon). We should not have this
as free-standard static data. That's not how DM works...

So I guess Masahiro's patch needs to be adjusted.

Simon

Ok, I agree with you.

Today, I read your comment and I start to move the list in syscon uclass priv data (I just discovered the uclass priv data).

But after some time spent with this list, I prefer completely remove it and
have the same behavior with DM functions (as a list is already managed for the drivers).

It is more that only a adjustment, I completely update the function syscon_node_to_regmap():
force bound to syscon driver and probe it when the syscon driver don't yet exist.....

=> Do you think that is a good solution ?

The function change to:

struct regmap *syscon_node_to_regmap(ofnode node)
{
	struct udevice *dev;
	struct udevice *parent;
	ofnode ofnode = node;
	int ret;

	if (!uclass_get_device_by_ofnode(UCLASS_SYSCON, node, &dev))
		return syscon_get_regmap(dev);

	if (!ofnode_device_is_compatible(node, "syscon"))
		return ERR_PTR(-EINVAL);

	if (device_find_global_by_ofnode(ofnode, &parent))
		parent = dm_root();

	/* force bound to syscon class */
	ret = device_bind_driver_to_node(parent, "syscon",
					 ofnode_get_name(node),
					 node, &dev);
	if (ret)
		return ERR_PTR(ret);

	ret = device_probe(dev);
	if (ret)
		return ERR_PTR(ret);

	return syscon_get_regmap(dev);
}

Tested on my board, the initial issue is sole and I check the behavior with dm_dump_all();
It seems OK for my case (RCC driver) .

before relocation => syscon is correctly probed
