Yes, this is allowed, but if you've added device links to a device object that is not going to be registered after all, you are responsible for doing the cleanup. Why can't you call device_link_del() directly on those links? Or device_link_remove() if you don't want to deal with link pointers?

So I'd probably modify device_link_remove() to check if the consumer device has been registered and run __device_link_del() directly instead of device_link_put_kref() if it hasn't. Or add an argument to it to force the removal.

Maybe. But the suggested patch is certainly risky. There is no requirement the consumer is registered before the links are added though. So, randomly deleting a managed link when device_link_put_kref() is called on a stateless refcount (they are still the same link still) isn't right. The entity that created the managed device link might still want it there. Also, if two entities create a managed link and one of them calls device_link_put_kref() before the device is registered, we have a UAF problem because managed links aren't refcounted (more than once). -Saravana

Device pointers are needed in order to create a device link and it is quite unlikely that a pointer to an unregistered device will be shared between two different pieces of code. > The entity that created the > managed device link might still want it there.

IMO until a device object is registered, its creator should be allowed to do the cleanup in the case when it gets released without registration, including the removal of any device links to it that have been added so far. Messing up with a device object created by someone else that may still go away without registration is a risky business regardless.

If a LUN fails to probe (e.g. absent BOOT WLUN), the device will not have been registered but can still have a device link holding a reference to the device. The unwanted device link will prevent runtime suspend indefinitely, and cause some warnings if the supplier is ever deleted (e.g. by unbinding the UFS host controller). Fix by explicitly deleting the device link when SCSI destroys the SCSI device.
