[PATCH 1/2] deps: parallel initialization of (device-)drivers
Alexander Holler
holler at ahsoftware.de
Wed Sep 9 11:35:24 PDT 2015
This initializes drivers (annotated or in the initcall level device)
in parallel.
Which drivers can be initialized in parallel is calculated by using
the dependencies. That means, currently, only annotated drivers which
are are referenced in the used DT will be in order. For all others it
is assumed that, as long as they belong to the same initcall level
(device), they can be called in any order.
Unfortunately this isn't allways true and several drivers are depending
on the link-order (based on the Makefile and the directory). This is,
imho, a bug or at least a very fragile way to do such and should be,
again imho, fixed. Otherwise problems might arise if e.g. a driver is
moved from staging to its final position (which changes its place in
the list of initcalls too).
But this isn't really the topic of this patch and I'm mentioning this
here just as a warning or as hint in case someone experiences problems
when enabling the feature this patch provides.
