This is 2.6.39-rc3..rc5 on Sun Ultra 1 with SBus hme card.
On about 50% of boots, hme is found fine and works. On other half boots 
(not strictly in any order) SBus hme is not detected with this error:

hme: probe of f006be34 failed with error -22

grepping the logs, I sometimes also find similar errors about qlogicpti:

qpti: probe of f00798c4 failed with error -22

The node addresses are always the same for the device.

2.6.38 did not have this problem.

On SBus-only E3000 and SBus+PCI E3500, SBus HME and other SBus 
devices are detected fine so far in a handful of tests.

Grant, I'm trying to diagnose this bug report which is a 2.6.39-rcX regression
and I think it's a side-effect of your changes to move away from
of_platform_{,un}register_driver().

Somehow an OF device driver's ->probe() is being called with a NULL
"->of_match", that's why the probe returns -22 (-EINVAL) since in
your transformations that is the first thing you check.

There are only a few ways this can happen that I can tell, firstly
the of_driver_match_device() call has to fail.

It could then happen if pdrv->id_table is non-NULL, but in these two
cases (drivers/net/sunhme.c:hme_sbus_driver and
drivers/scsi/qlogicpti.c:qpti_sbus_driver) no id_table is assigned.

The next possibility would be if pdrv->name matches the device's
name, but in these two cases ("SUNW,hme" vs. "hme" and "QLGC,pti"
vs. "qpti") that should not be the case either.

There is only one more way this could happen, and that is if the
device bus pointer is NULL.  Because in that situation the
match function doesn't get called and all devices can match.

This is also very unlikely, because platform_device_add() always
assigns pdev->dev.bus to &platform_bus_type before the device_add()
call.

The fact that this failure happens only on some boots for Meelis leads
me to belive that some datastructure is corrupted.  Perhaps there is
an incorrect __init or __devinit somewhere, or we reference freed up
data some other way.

Any ideas?

This is the failure case I was most concerned about when merging the
busses, but as you say the device naming convention is different for
OF-generated devices and therefore unlikely, and also easy to check
for.

Actually, platform_device_add() doesn't get called for the of_device
case; mostly because there are still a couple of things that need to
be unified before platform_device_add() can replace of_device_add().
of_device_register() is called instead which doesn't set the bus
pointer.  However, both versions of scan_one_device() in arch/sparc do
explicitly set the bus pointer before adding the device, so this still
doesn't look like the issue, and if it was it doesn't explain the
intermittent nature of the problem.

I would agree that that is a likely scenario.

> Any ideas?

It would be good to know the exact failure mode, so we need to know if
of_driver_match_device() is setting of_match which is subsequently
getting cleared, or if of_driver_match_device() isn't getting called
at all.  Meelis, can you add something like the following code to
include/linux/of_device.h in the of_driver_match_device() function
between the of_match_device() call and the return statement:

if (dev->of_match)
        printk("found match; node=%s, driver=%s\n",
                 dev->of_node->full_name, drv->name);

If two drivers are probing devices at the same time, both will write
their match table result to the dev->of_match cache at the same time.

Only write the result if the device matches.

In a thread titled "SBus devices sometimes detected, sometimes not",
Meelis reported his SBus hme was not detected about 50% of the time.
>From the debug suggested by Grant it was obvious another driver matched
some devices between the call to match the hme and the hme discovery
failling.

Grant, I really think this of_match cache in the device node is bad a
bad tradeoff, and am willing to submit patches to remove it for 2.6.40.
It is only used by about 26 drivers and all use it once during probe
to fill out their driver data.  It comes at the cost of a long for
every struct device in every system.

I'll even offer to throw in a patch to cache the parsing of the
compatible property to speed up of_device_is_compatible if needed.

If two drivers are probing devices at the same time, both will write
their match table result to the dev->of_match cache at the same time.

Only write the result if the device matches.

In a thread titled "SBus devices sometimes detected, sometimes not",
Meelis reported his SBus hme was not detected about 50% of the time.
>From the debug suggested by Grant it was obvious another driver matched
some devices between the call to match the hme and the hme discovery

Grant, I really think this of_match cache in the device node is bad a
bad tradeoff, and am willing to submit patches to remove it for 2.6.40.
It is only used by about 26 drivers and all use it once during probe
to fill out their driver data.  It comes at the cost of a long for
every struct device in every system.

I'll even offer to throw in a patch to cache the parsing of the
compatible property to speed up of_device_is_compatible if needed.

If two drivers are probing devices at the same time, both will write
their match table result to the dev->of_match cache at the same time.

Only write the result if the device matches.

In a thread titled "SBus devices sometimes detected, sometimes not",
Meelis reported his SBus hme was not detected about 50% of the time.
From the debug suggested by Grant it was obvious another driver matched
some devices between the call to match the hme and the hme discovery
failling.

Ah, bugger.  I had /thought/ that matching and probing were kept
together with a mutex.  So, yes, this is bad and the of_match needs to
be removed.  Thanks for volunteering to submit the patch.  It should
be backported to 2.6.39 too.

That would be useful.  :-)

I'll pick up your patch right now and fire it off to Linus.

Err, is there some reason to avoid simply assigning the existing result:
dev->of_match = match; ?

... it's not perfect since it will break some theoretical drivers
unbind/rebind use-cases, but I cannot think of any actual examples,
and it is far safer than the current code.  Regardless, the removal of
of_match will definitely need to go into stable when it is ready.

... it's not perfect since it will break some theoretical drivers
unbind/rebind use-cases, but I cannot think of any actual examples,
and it is far safer than the current code.  Regardless, the removal of
of_match will definitely need to go into stable when it is ready.

Good point.  I've committed and am currently testing the modified version.

Sorry about that.  I had intended to do that (hence creating the
variable), but obvioiusly I forgot when I hurried to compile test
and send out the patch.

thanks to Josip for finding and Grant for fixing.
