From: Quanyang Wang <quanyang.w...@windriver.com> The function dev_pm_opp_of_cpumask_add_table may return zero or an error. When it returns an error, this means that no OPP table is added for the cpumask because _dev_pm_opp_cpumask_remove_table is called to free all OPPs associated with the cpu devices in the error label "remove_table". So continuing to run the next function dev_pm_opp_get_opp_count is meaningless since it always return the count value as 0.
There is another reason why we should check the error returned by dev_pm_opp_of_cpumask_add_table is that it may return -EPROBE_DEFER which comes from clk_get(dev, NULL) in _update_opp_table_clk. When the clk for cpu device isn't ready, dt_cpufreq_probe should be deferred and wait to be called again. But if we ignore the return error of dev_pm_opp_of_cpumask_add_table, dt_cpufreq_probe will return -ENODEV because dev_pm_opp_get_opp_count returns the count value as 0, the cpufreq-dt driver will fail with the error log as below: [ 0.724069] cpu cpu0: OPP table can't be empty Signed-off-by: Quanyang Wang <quanyang.w...@windriver.com> --- drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq-dt.c | 12 +++++++++--- 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq-dt.c b/drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq-dt.c index b1e1bdc63b01..f24359f47b1a 100644 --- a/drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq-dt.c +++ b/drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq-dt.c @@ -255,10 +255,16 @@ static int dt_cpufreq_early_init(struct device *dev, int cpu) * before updating priv->cpus.
