Subject: [PATCH v4 1/2] spi: pxa2xx: disable DMA and fix runtime PM for Apple MacBook8,1
Date: Sat, 18 Jul 2026 00:37:30 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260717163731.6782-2-fourdollars@debian.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260717163731.6782-1-fourdollars@debian.org>
On MacBook8,1 (early 2015 12" MacBook), the LPSS SPI controller at
00:15.4 has two related problems: DMA handshake/interrupt routing fails,
and runtime PM autosuspend clock-gates the LPSS block, triggering PCIe
Completion Timeouts.
Move the force-PIO DMI quirk to spi-pxa2xx-pci.c (the LPSS host controller
driver) to avoid layering violations in the client driver.
To prevent the PCIe Completion Timeout crash when operating in PIO mode:
- Only enable runtime autosuspend in pxa2xx_spi_pci_probe() if enable_dma
is true.
- If DMA is disabled (either statically via the DMI quirk / module parameter
or dynamically due to channel exhaustion), call pm_runtime_get_noresume()
in pxa2xx_spi_probe() to hold a runtime PM reference, and release it via
pm_runtime_put_noidle() in the remove/error paths. This keeps the PM count
above 0 and permanently locks the device out of autosuspend, preventing
userspace tools (like PowerTOP) or udev rules from overriding it.
- Implement helper functions pxa2xx_spi_clk_enable() and pxa2xx_spi_clk_disable()
to track clock state via drv_data->clk_enabled, preventing clock disable
count underflows and framework warnings on resume/autosuspend error paths.
- Check device status in the shared interrupt handler ssp_int() using
pm_runtime_get_if_active() and drv_data->suspended. If the device is
suspended, suspending (RPM_SUSPENDING), or clock-disabled, ssp_int()
immediately returns IRQ_NONE to avoid reading unclocked MMIO registers.
- Initialize drv_data->suspended to true early in probe, and clear it only
after the clock is successfully enabled, preventing shared interrupt handler
races during device initialization.
- In pxa2xx_spi_runtime_suspend() and pxa2xx_spi_suspend(), set drv_data->suspended
to true and call synchronize_irq() to wait for any active handlers on the
shared interrupt line to finish before disabling the clock.
- Adjust the driver teardown order in pxa2xx_spi_remove() and probe error paths:
always call free_irq() to unregister the handler before calling
clk_disable_unprepare() to turn off the clock, preventing concurrent
interrupts from reading registers while the clock is disabled.
Avoid duplicate can-DMA pci_info() logging by checking the pre-computed
enable_dma status in probe and passing a verbose flag to can_dma().
