OK I posted a series to fix these issues hopefully as thread "[PATCH 0/5] pinctrl fixes for generic functions and groups".
Can you please test and see if that is enough to fix the issues you're seeing?
Yes, I'll try asap.
Ok, I tried on OMAP3 (GTA04A5 board).
First boot was ok, but second did show again the strcmp(NULL) :(
Interestingly, adding my printk() to pinctrl_generic_add_group makes it disappear. (I think the printk adds more delay to one of the code paths and avoids the race or problematic concurrency).
There is also good news: the selectors are now assigned in strict sequence. This is a big improvement:

But it looks as if we still have duplicate assignments by deferred probing, i.e. some cleanup is missing (or is this intended behaviour?).
Regarding the strcmp(NULL) faults, it seems as we still have the situation that there are invalid selector numbers stored somewhere and used by generic driver probing code (i.e. before the driver is modprobed):

Can this be a side-effect of the duplicate selector assigments?
Let's assume a first probe attempt does:
[ 6.616546] pinctrl_generic_add_group: pctldev=ee3cd180 name=pinmux_camera_pins selector=17
This fails and is probed again doing:
[ 6.835418] pinctrl_generic_add_group: pctldev=ee3cd180 name=pinmux_camera_pins selector=18 [ 6.874694] pinctrl_generic_add_group: pctldev=ee3cd180 name=pinmux_camera_pins selector=19
Then, a different driver does
[ 6.900299] pinctrl_generic_add_group: pctldev=ee3cd180 name=hdq_pins selector=20
And calls pinctrl_get_group_selector() to find itself in the list by pinmux_map_to_setting().
For this the code in pinctrl_get_group_selector() loops over all 21 known selector numbers, calling pctlops->get_group_name(pctldev, group_selector) for each one.
If slots 17 and 18 do not really exist (or are deleted after failed probing), there is a NULL return. Which triggers the strcmp(NULL), because the strcmp is not guarded against non-existing slots in the radix tree.
So a simple workaround could be:
if (gname && !strcmp(gname, pin_group)) {
But I think the fundamental problem is that the same driver assigns multiple slots if probing is deferred.
Therefore, I tried to find out more why this happens. Here are some more observations by studying the code and adding a dump_stack() inside pinctrl_generic_add_group():
1. the records stored in the radix tree are allocated through devm_kzalloc() within pinctrl_generic_add_group(). 2. I have not found a mechanism that removes them from the radix tree if they are devm freed which IMHO happens if the probe fails (and all devm objects are rewound). 3. I could not observe calls to pinctrl_generic_remove_group() 4. this means a stale pointer to the group_desc is still stored in the radix tree if driver probing fails 5. scanning through the radix tree for a matching gname in pinctrl_get_group_selector() accesses this stale radix tree entry. It has either been overwritten by something else - or contains a dangling pointer for group->name. This explains the randomness of the problem but that it is also repeatable to some extent. For a pure race of some 100 instructions it happens IMHO too often. 6. the pinctrl_generic_add_group() is called from create_pinctrl() through pinctrl_dt_to_map() and pcs_dt_node_to_map(), i.e. before the pinctrl_maps_mutex is locked in create_pinctrl(). This means that pinctrl_generic_add_group() is not locked in this case.
I hope this helps to pinpoint and solve the remaining bugs.
BR and thanks, Nikolaus
