Hi Saravana, Thanks for posting this, much appreciated.

That's not quite an accurate description. The gpiolib subsystem does create a struct device. It doesn't register a driver though, which is what causes the issue with fr_devlink (more on that below). > > Drivers that follow the case 2 cause problems with fw_devlink=on.

My personal gripe with this approach is that it is an abrupt change in the way DT and device model are mapped onto each other. As far as I know (and someone please correct me if I am wrong), there is zero expectation that a device/subdevice/random IP block described by a node with a "compatible" property will end-up being managed by a driver that is bound to that particular node. The node/subnode division is a good way to express some HW boundaries, but doesn't say anything about the way this should be handled in the kernel. Assuming that everything containing a "compatible" string will eventually be bound to a driver is IMO pretty limiting. > > [1] - https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20201014191235.7f71fcb4@xhacker.debian/ > [2] - https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/e28e1f38d87c12a3c714a6573beba6e1@kernel.org/ > Cc: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org> > Cc: Jisheng Zhang <Jisheng.Zhang@synaptics.com> > Cc: Kever Yang <kever.yang@rock-chips.com> > Fixes: e590474768f1 ("driver core: Set fw_devlink=on by default") > Signed-off-by: Saravana Kannan <saravanak@google.com> > --- > v1 -> v2: > - Fixed up compilation errors that were introduced accidentally > - Fixed a missing put_device() > > drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c | 37 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > 1 file changed, 37 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c b/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c > index b02cc2abd3b6..12c579a953b0 100644 > --- a/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c > +++ b/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c > @@ -574,6 +574,9 @@ int gpiochip_add_data_with_key(struct gpio_chip *gc, void *data, > unsigned i; > int base = gc->base; > struct gpio_device *gdev; > + struct device_node *of_node; > + struct fwnode_handle *fwnode; > + struct device *fwnode_dev; > > /* > * First: allocate and populate the internal stat container, and > @@ -596,6 +599,22 @@ int gpiochip_add_data_with_key(struct gpio_chip *gc, void *data, > gdev->dev.of_node = gc->of_node; > else > gc->of_node = gdev->dev.of_node; > + > + of_node = gdev->dev.of_node; > + fwnode = of_fwnode_handle(of_node); > + fwnode_dev = get_dev_from_fwnode(fwnode); > + /* > + * If your driver hits this warning, it's because you are directly > + * parsing a device tree node with "compatible" property and > + * initializing it instead of using the standard DT + device driver > + * model of creating a struct device and then initializing it in the > + * probe function.

However, on a system that doesn't suffer from this problem, I end-up with the following issue: $ ls -l /sys/bus/platform/drivers/mb86s70-gpio/51000000.gpio/of_node lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jan 17 11:15 /sys/bus/platform/drivers/mb86s70-gpio/51000000.gpio/of_node -> ../../../firmware/devicetree/base/gpio@51000000 $ ls -l /sys/bus/gpio/drivers/gpio_drv/gpiochip0/of_node lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jan 16 18:30 /sys/bus/gpio/drivers/gpio_drv/gpiochip0/of_node -> ../../../../firmware/devicetree/base/gpio@51000000 where two drivers are now handling the same of_node. Somehow, I don't think this is a good idea, even if I didn't spot anything problematic yet (maybe because there isn't anything useful hanging off the GPIOs on this particular machine). Overall, I'm concerned that this is a change in semantics that affects the whole device model, and I wonder whether forcing everyone in the same mould is the right approach. An alternative I've been thinking about is to flag the device as "satisfying existing dependencies" at the point where it is registered. Because at the end of the day, we don't really care for the *driver* part of it (case in point, the stub driver you introduced doesn't do anything). We only care about *someone* saying "this device is ready to be used". So how about cutting the middleman? Thanks, M.

The devices created by gpiolib care are created for case 1 and case 2. They are just devices gpiolib uses to represent a virtual software device to hook different attributes to and expose them in sysfs. I'm not talking about those devices here. The devices I'm referring to are devices that represent the actual HW IP -- so what I'm saying is accurate. > > > > Drivers that follow the case 2 cause problems with fw_devlink=on.

Assuming that everything containing a "compatible" string will > eventually be bound to a driver is IMO pretty limiting. The default behavior of of_platform_populate() is to create a struct device for every node with "compatible" property. That's how top level devices (or children of simple-bus devices) are populated. IIRC, that's what a lot of other busses do too. So, if anything, not having a struct device for nodes with "compatible" property is an exception. Honestly, if one has a driver that supports a HW IP, I don't see any reason it should operate outside of the device-driver model supported by driver core. The driver code is there for a reason -- to solve all the common problems faced by drivers. Operating outside of it just causes reinventing the wheel, things like playing chicken with initcalls to make sure drivers initialize their device in the right order, not working with deferred probe, etc. For example, the rockchip driver in your device (the one that follows case 2) tries to get some clocks. But if that fails with -EPROBE_DEFER, the driver has no way for it to recover and just doesn't register the GPIO anymore. Obviously exceptions are allowed for devices that are needed before the driver core even comes up -- like early, clocks, irqs and timers for the kernel/scheduler to kick off. > > > > [1] - https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20201014191235.7f71fcb4@xhacker.debian/ > > [2] - https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/e28e1f38d87c12a3c714a6573beba6e1@kernel.org/ > > Cc: Marc Zyngier <maz@kernel.org> > > Cc: Jisheng Zhang <Jisheng.Zhang@synaptics.com> > > Cc: Kever Yang <kever.yang@rock-chips.com> > > Fixes: e590474768f1 ("driver core: Set fw_devlink=on by default") > > Signed-off-by: Saravana Kannan <saravanak@google.com> > > --- > > v1 -> v2: > > - Fixed up compilation errors that were introduced accidentally > > - Fixed a missing put_device() > > > > drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c | 37 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > > 1 file changed, 37 insertions(+) > > > > diff --git a/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c b/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c > > index b02cc2abd3b6..12c579a953b0 100644 > > --- a/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c > > +++ b/drivers/gpio/gpiolib.c > > @@ -574,6 +574,9 @@ int gpiochip_add_data_with_key(struct gpio_chip *gc, void *data, > > unsigned i; > > int base = gc->base; > > struct gpio_device *gdev; > > + struct device_node *of_node; > > + struct fwnode_handle *fwnode; > > + struct device *fwnode_dev; > > > > /* > > * First: allocate and populate the internal stat container, and > > @@ -596,6 +599,22 @@ int gpiochip_add_data_with_key(struct gpio_chip *gc, void *data, > > gdev->dev.of_node = gc->of_node; > > else > > gc->of_node = gdev->dev.of_node; > > + > > + of_node = gdev->dev.of_node; > > + fwnode = of_fwnode_handle(of_node); > > + fwnode_dev = get_dev_from_fwnode(fwnode); > > + /* > > + * If your driver hits this warning, it's because you are directly > > + * parsing a device tree node with "compatible" property and > > + * initializing it instead of using the standard DT + device driver > > + * model of creating a struct device and then initializing it in the > > + * probe function.

I agree it looks weird, but it doesn't really break anything and I'm pretty confident about it. IIRC there are other cases (unrelated to fw_devlink) where this happens too. Also, there are many cases of two devices pointing to the same of_node. If we really don't like this, then the solution is to have gpiolib NOT initialize the of_node like this. I can also have the stub driver not probe this device for case 1. That's pretty easy to do. > Overall, I'm concerned that this is a change in semantics that affects > the whole device model, and I wonder whether forcing everyone in the > same mould is the right approach. > > An alternative I've been thinking about is to flag the device as > "satisfying existing dependencies" at the point where it is > registered.

We only care about *someone* saying "this device > is ready to be used". This might be doable (haven't fully thought of the corner cases it might cause for device links) if gpiolib had put the device in a class (instead of a bus) because "class" devices don't probe. "Bus" devices are expected to probe and there's no way to tell if it's safe to ignore waiting for this device to probe. That'd break device links (not just fw_devlink) in a fundamental way too. Also, I don't know the reasons why gpiolib uses a bus instead of a class, but if we change that now, it's going to affect the sysfs layout and break UAPI. So, IMHO, this patch (with the clean up for Case 1) is the best compromise to get fw_devlink=on working. Considering how trivial this patch is and fw_devlink=on helping out a lot of people, I'd recommend we go with this patch and if we find a better solution later, we can implement that and remove this. -Saravana

There you go. Exceptions. Tons of. The trouble is, you are rewriting the rules of the game. Except that you are about 10 year late to the party. Forcing your changes on everyone by saying that was perfectly valid a month ago is now illegal doesn't really fly. Anyway, I said what I had to say. If platforms break with this change, I'll expect it to be disabled in 5.12. Thanks, M.

I usually tried to get driver authors to do this. Sometimes they have been very strongly convinced that this is not right for their hardware which leads to case 2. > Case 2: The driver for "foo" doesn't populate its child device nodes > with "compatible" property and instead just loops through its child > nodes and directly registers the GPIOs with gpiolib without ever > populating a struct device or binding a driver to it. This usually happens when the registers for these "subdevices" are mixed up in the address space, so there could not be a clean "reg" property on the node, i.e. it breaks another implicit assumtion that each such gpio node is a separate hardware and register map entity. They may still have "ports" or "banks" of GPIO that make sense to separate into logical nodes and this is most often why they do this. I bet there are some other oddities as well. > Drivers that follow the case 2 cause problems with fw_devlink=on.

I think in many or all cases there will eventually be such a device, and indeed when you are talking about struct gpio_device below, that is that device, right? > Finding and refactoring all the instances of drivers that follow case 2 > will cause a lot of code churn and it not something that can be done in > one shot. Examples of such instances are [1] [2]. [1] is the DesignWare GPIO controller which is actually pretty important, a lot of devices synthesize this controller so it would be really nice to fix properly. That said I am not sure there is an option to actually refactor these devices, they look like they do for very good reasons. > This patch works around this problem and avoids all the code churn by > simply creating a stub driver to bind to the gpio_device.

It actually looks like something we can make use of one day. But put in some comments in the code describing when this gets probed and why we do not do anything in probe() here. Yours, Linus Walleij

Ah, thanks for the context. But couldn't they just skip the "compatible" property in the DT if these individual nodes aren't considered separate devices? It's too late for existing DT device bindings, but maybe in the future we can ask them to skip the "compatible" property if they don't consider the sub nodes to be distinct devices? > > Drivers that follow the case 2 cause problems with fw_devlink=on.

It's not clear in the diff due to lack of sufficient context lines, but this piece of code is already inside a #ifdef CONFIG_OF_GPIO. To cover the case where CONFIG_OF_GPIO is enabled but we get here for non-DT devices, I just need to add a !fwnode check here. Then stuff will automatically NOP out for non-DT devices. Since the gdev->dev.of_node is set a few lines above, I think gdev->dev.fwnode should also be set close to it (which is what the next few lines do).

I dunno about that. If you add more than a few lines of DT-specific code, I prefer that you put that into gpiolib-of.c to keep things separate, or we will get a mess with more and more hardware descriptions. Things that are agnostic fwnode is fine to have in generic code, it should be used the same by pretty much anything.

There are multiple instances of GPIO devictree nodes of the form: foo { compatible = "acme,foo"; ... gpio0: gpio0@xxxxxxxx { compatible = "acme,bar"; ... gpio-controller; }; gpio1: gpio1@xxxxxxxx { compatible = "acme,bar"; ... gpio-controller; }; ... } bazz { my-gpios = <&gpio0 ...>; } Case 1: The driver for "foo" populates struct device for these gpio* nodes and then probes them using a driver that binds with "acme,bar". This lines up with how DT nodes with the "compatible" property are generally converted to struct devices and then registered with driver core to probe them. This also allows the gpio* devices to hook into all the driver core capabilities like runtime PM, probe deferral, suspend/resume ordering, device links, etc. Case 2: The driver for "foo" doesn't populate its child device nodes with "compatible" property and instead just loops through its child nodes and directly registers the GPIOs with gpiolib without ever populating a struct device or binding a driver to it. Drivers that follow the case 2 cause problems with fw_devlink=on. This is because fw_devlink will prevent bazz from probing until there's a struct device that has gpio0 as its fwnode (because bazz lists gpio0 as a GPIO supplier). Once the struct device is available, fw_devlink will create a device link between with gpio0 as the supplier and bazz as the consumer. After this point, the device link will prevent bazz from probing until its supplier (the gpio0 device) has bound to a driver. Once the supplier is bound to a driver, the probe of bazz is triggered automatically. Finding and refactoring all the instances of drivers that follow case 2 will cause a lot of code churn and it not something that can be done in one shot. Examples of such instances are [1] [2]. This patch works around this problem and avoids all the code churn by simply creating a stub driver to bind to the gpio_device. Since the gpio_device already points to the GPIO device tree node, this allows all the consumers to continue probing when the driver follows case 2. If/when all the old drivers are refactored, we can revert this patch.
