[PATCH v8 6/8] i2c: of-prober: Add GPIO support to simple helpers
Posted by Chen-Yu Tsai 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Add GPIO support to the simple helpers for the I2C OF component prober.
Components that the prober intends to probe likely require their
regulator supplies be enabled, and GPIOs be toggled to enable them or
bring them out of reset before they will respond to probe attempts.
Regulator supplies were handled in the previous patch.

The assumption is that the same class of components to be probed are
always connected in the same fashion with the same regulator supply
and GPIO. The names may vary due to binding differences, but the
physical layout does not change.

This supports at most one GPIO pin. The user must specify the GPIO name,
the polarity, and the amount of time to wait after the GPIO is toggled.
Devices with more than one GPIO pin likely require specific power
sequencing beyond what generic code can easily support.

Changes since v7:
- Dropped mention of time unit in struct i2c_of_probe_simple_opts
  kernel doc (Andy)
- Added check for non-zero delay before msleep() (Doug)
- Simplified GPIO name check and reverse conditional branches (Andy)
- Added description about the supported power sequence
- Switched GPIO usage to logical levels (Doug)
  - Changed some variable names and comments to fit
- Added description of power sequence to struct i2c_of_probe_simple_opts
  (Doug)
- Added comment saying i2c_of_probe_simple_put_gpiod() might be no-op
  (Doug)
- Combined callbacks (.get_resources with .enable; .cleanup with
  .free_resources_late); renamed i2c_of_probe_simple_free_res_early() to
  i2c_of_probe_simple_cleanup_early()

Changes since v6:
- Restructured into helpers for the I2C OF component prober
- Reduced to only handle one GPIO
- Set GPIO to input on (failure) cleanup
- Updated commit message

Changes since v5:
- Renamed "con" to "propname" in i2c_of_probe_get_gpiod()
- Copy string first and check return value of strscpy() for overflow in
  i2c_of_probe_get_gpiod()
- Add parenthesis around "enable" and "reset" GPIO names in comments
- Split resource count debug message into two separate lines
- Split out GPIO helper from i2c_of_probe_enable_res() to keep code
  cleaner following the previous patch
- Adopted options for customizing power sequencing delay following
  previous patch

Changes since v4:
- Split out from previous patch
- Moved GPIO property name check to common function in gpiolib.c in new
  patch
- Moved i2c_of_probe_free_gpios() into for_each_child_of_node_scoped()
- Rewrote in gpiod_*_array-esque fashion

I'm not sure I understand the comment. Does disable() ever get called
when set() wasn't called beforehand? How could it not be in output
direction?

Instead of the above, maybe:

GPIO operations here are no-ops if i2c_of_probe_simple_cleanup_early()
was called.

You're right. I think it was carried over (in my mind) from when it was
still four callbacks.

Makes sense. Will change.

I assume this stands even after Andy's suggestion to drop the gpiod check
is applied.

Can it use positive conditional?

	if (ctx->opts->gpio_name[0])
		con_id = ctx->opts->gpio_name;
	else
		con_id = NULL;

You suggested writing it this way in your reply to v7. Please pick one.

Not sure I follow. The check is needed because this function is called
in i2c_of_probe_simple_cleanup(), but the GPIO could have been released
earlier in i2c_of_probe_simple_cleanup_early(), and that makes this
function a no-op.

The helpers for the release side are quite short, but the ones on the
request side wrap some conditional and error handling. I think it's
better to keep it symmetric?

Will fix.

Do you have a known race condition then? This is bad. You shouldn't rely on
the sequence of events here, or the serialisation has to be added.

Yes, but why do you need the above check, I didn't still get...
I.o.w. you think that there is a gap in time that (if no check) the GPIO
descriptor might be changed? But then how does it affect anyway the possibility
that it becomes not NULL even with the current code.

The opposite actually. Either it is always NULL, or it was initially valid,
but the early cleanup function released it and thus it became NULL by the
time this function gets called.

Then I don't see any points to have this check (details in the other reply).

No there isn't. Explanation below.

There are two codes paths, either

    a) successfully finding a device and enabling it, or
    b) exhausting all options and not finding a device, because it was
       optional or it is malfunctioning.

After either code path, this cleanup function is called.

In path (a), the GPIO descriptor is released prior to enabling the device,
because the descriptor is an exclusive resource, and as soon as the device
is enabled, its corresponding driver may probe and request the same GPIO,
and would fail if it was not released.

In path (b), nothing was enabled, and the GPIO descriptor was not released
early.

The cleanup function here accounts for both cases, hence the check.

A step-by-step description might be clearer:

1. i2c_of_probe_simple_enable()
   ...
   1a. i2c_of_probe_simple_get_supply()
   1b. i2c_of_probe_simple_get_gpiod()
   1c. i2c_of_probe_simple_enable_regulator()
   1d. i2c_of_probe_simple_set_gpio()

2. Loop through potential component options and probe; if one is found:
   2a. i2c_of_probe_simple_cleanup_early()
       2a-i. i2c_of_probe_simple_put_gpiod
   2b. Enable device and driver's probe() gets called

3. i2c_of_probe_simple_cleanup()
   3a. i2c_of_probe_simple_disable_gpio()
   3b. i2c_of_probe_simple_put_gpiod()
   3c. i2c_of_probe_simple_disable_regulator()
   3d. i2c_of_probe_simple_put_supply()

Yes, but the very same check is inside gpiod_set_value(). I'm still puzzled
about the duplication. Maybe I'm missing something...

My bad. I did not check if the GPIO descriptor API had these checks.
In that case I will drop the check in this patch.
