If I remember now why I used this approach, I also saw that my patchset does not work with the QCOM platform driver. As a first step of explanation, let's ignore the QC platform. rpdev->ept is null for the rpmsg ctrldev device created by the virtio rpmsg bus. If no default endpoint is created on rpmsg_chrdev_probe, it is not possible to differentiate the two in rpmsg_eptdev_open based on rpdev->ept == NULL. Now let's add the QC implementation As you mentioned, QC sets the rpdev->ept to a default endpoint before registering the rpmsg ctrldev. This shows that it is not reasonable to expect to handle all use cases based on the rpdev->ept value. So, to summarize, I need to rework this, probably by adding a new field in the rpmsg_eptdev structure, to properly handle the endpoint creation in the rpmsg_eptdev_open function.
