Subject: [PATCH v5 0/2] regcache: Avoid accessing non-initialised cache
Date: Tue,  3 Mar 2026 10:26:23 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260303092820.2818138-1-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> (raw)

Refactor regcache flow that populates cache on initialisation phase
based on the values in HW. This makes code robust against any possible
accesses to not-fully initialised caches.

Changelog v5:
- added a precursor patch to make things clearer
- also put the freeing resources into an order (Mark)
- dropped applied patches

v4: 20260302095847.2310066-1-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com

Changelog v4:
- made conditional against 'count' to make it less dependent to the previous code path

v3: 20260226135918.381979-1-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com

Changelog v3:
- dropped unneeded churn in patch 3 (Mark)
- fixed code to pass kunit test cases (Mark)

v2: 20260225161659.3811671-1-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com

Changelog v2:
- rebased on top of the latest regmap changes (Mark)
- added two more little cleanups (patches 4 & 5)

Andy Shevchenko (2):
  regcache: Factor out regcache_hw_exit() helper
  regcache: Move HW readback after cache initialisation
