>Description:
System configured with devices intppm, smbb and smbus.
On startup smbus1 is reported but no smbus0 is reported. There is no file /dev/smb0
In sys/pci/intpm.c intpm_attach() executes
smbinterface = device_add_child(dev, ""intsmb", unit);
device_probe_and_attach(smbinterface);
device_probe_and_attach() calls device_probe_child() which ends us calling intsmb_probe() twice, once when search for the best matching driver and again, because intsmb_probe() returns BUS_PROBE_DEFAULT, immediately after the comment "Call the probe method again to make sure we have the right description."
Calling intsmb_probe() twice results in creation of devices smbus0 (on the first call to intsmb_probe) and smbus1 (on the second call to intsmb_probe). The second probe call results in When intsmb_attach(0 is called, sc->smbus contains a pointer to a device structure for smbus1 and consequently smbus1 is reported in the startup.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
Suggested fix:
In sys/pci/intpm move
sc->smbus=device_add_child(dev, "smbus", -1);
if (!sc->smbus)
return (EINVAL); /* XXX don't know what to return else */
from intsmb_probe() to intsmb_attach()
The suggested fix mirrors more closely the code in sys/pci/viapm.c and sys/pci/amdpm.c
