Board data files wrapped inside board-2.bin files are
identified based on a combination of bus architecture,
chip-id, board-id or variants. Here is one such example
of a BDF entry in board-2.bin file:
bus=snoc,qmi-board-id=67,qmi-chip-id=320,variant=GO_XXXX
It is possible for few platforms none of the combinations
of bus,qmi-board,chip-id or variants match, e.g. if
board-id is not programmed and thus reads board-id=0xff,
there won't be any matching BDF to be found. In such
situations, the wlan will fail to enumerate.
Currently, to search for BDF, there are two fallback
boardnames creates to search for BDFs in case the full BDF
is not found. It is still possible that even the fallback
boardnames do not match.
As an improvement, search for BDF with full BDF combination
and perform the fallback searches by stripping down the last
elements until a BDF entry is found or none is found for all
possible BDF combinations.e.g.
Search for initial BDF first then followed by reduced BDF
names as follows:
bus=snoc,qmi-board-id=67,qmi-chip-id=320,variant=GO_XXXX
bus=snoc,qmi-board-id=67,qmi-chip-id=320
bus=snoc,qmi-board-id=67
bus=snoc
<No BDF found>

Changes in v3:
- As discussed, instead of adding support for default BDF in DT, added
a method to drop the last elements from full BDF until a BDF is found.
- Previous patch was "ath10k: search for default BDF name provided in DT"

Thanks for the review Jeff, I have replied below and will address
these comments in next iteration. I will wait for a day more to get
some more reviews and collectively make the change.

Hmmm, I think it makes sense to log each failure to find as a debug
log and log as err only if nothing matches (when ENODATA is returned).

Thinking about it a bit more, it makes sense to log the original name
rather than last name.

As mentioned above, it makes sense to log as debug for each failure to
find and log as error if nothing matches, will make this change in the
next iteration.

"static int" as you use error values. Strange that the compiler doesn't
warn about that.

I would invert the check:
if (!last_field)
return -ENODATA;
/* Drop the last BDF element */
last_field[0] = '\0';
ath10k_dbg(ar, ATH10K_DBG_BOOT, "boot reduced boardname %s\n",
boardname);
return 0;
Also I changed the style used in the debug message.

This is hard to read, what about the loop below? Though I'm sure I
missed some corner case but I hope you get the idea. It's always good to
have a limit for the loops to avoid looping forever.
for (i = 0; i < 20; i++) {
/* attempt to find boardname in the IE list */
ret = ath10k_core_search_bd(ar, temp_boardname, data, len);
if (ret != -ENOENT)
/* found it or something was wrong */
break;
/* If the full BDF entry was not found then drop the last element and
* recheck until a BDF is found or until all options are exhausted.
*/
ret = ath10k_create_reduced_boardname(ar, temp_boardname);
if (ret) {
ath10k_err(ar,
"failed to fetch board data for %s from %s/%s\n",
temp_boardname, ar->hw_params.fw.dir, filename);
ret = -ENODATA;
break;
}
};
if (ret)
goto err;
return 0;
