We have userspace monitoring tools that will configure appropriate fan control parameters but there is a bit of a delay between the kernel loading the driver and the userland tools catching up to configure the fan control. This series adds device properties that allow the PWM duty cycle to be specified via device properties so the PWM duty cycle can be reduced as soon as possible. Apologies for sending the quick v2 but the v1 I sent was an earlier local iteration than what I meant to send out.

Maybe that's just target-rpm property? But isn't this duplicating previous property? This is fan controller, not PWM provider (in any case you miss proper $refs to pwm.yaml or fan-common.yaml), so the only thing you initially want to configure is the fan rotation, not specific PWM waveform.

Confused. > As I have said before ... almost all fan controllers have pwm outputs to control the fans, because that is how fans are controlled. So, in your terminology, pretty much all fan controllers are also pwm providers. At the same time, I resist the push to implement pwm controller code in fan controller drivers because that would just add a lot of code for no good reason other than "because". I guess we'll have to find a means to extract pwm related configuration data such as this one from devicetree without actually implementing a full blown pwm controller driver.

If you you want to > configure specific PWM waveform, then it's a PWM provider... but it is > not... Confused. There's two things going on here. There's a PWM duty cycle which is configurable from 0% to 100%. It might be nice if this was expressed as a percentage instead of 0-255 but I went with the latter because that's how the sysfs ABI for the duty cycle works. The frequency (which I'll call adi,pwm-initial-frequency-hz in v3) affects how that duty cycle is presented to the fans. So you could still have a duty cycle of 50% at any frequency. What frequency is best depends on the kind of fans being used. In my particular case the lower frequencies end up with the fans oscillating annoyingly so I use the highest setting. > > Best regards, > Krzysztof > ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread

The property description is provider specicic, so I think we can pretty much just make it up. Essentially you'd first define a pwm provider which defines all the pwm parameters needed, such as pwm freqency, default duty cycle, and flags such as PWM_POLARITY_INVERTED. You'd then add something like pwms = <&pwm index frequency duty_cycle ... flags>; to the node for each fan, and be done. That doesn't mean that we would actually have to register the chip as pwm provider with the pwm subsystem; all we would have to do is to interpret the property values.

We've already got the pwm-active-state as a separate property so that might be tricky to deal with, I guess it could be deprecated in favour of something else. Looking at pwm.yaml and fan-common.yaml I can't quite see how that'd help here. Were you thinking maybe something like pwm: hwmon@2e { compatible = "adi,adt7476"; reg = <0x2e>; #pwm-cells = <4>; fan-0 { pwms = <&pwm 0 255 22500 PWM_POLARITY_INVERTED>; pwm-names = "PWM1"; tach-ch = <0>; }; fan-1 { // controlled by pwm 0 tach-ch = <1> }; fan-0 { pwms = <&pwm 2 255 22500 PWM_POLARITY_INVERTED>; pwm-names = "PWM3"; tach-ch <2>; }; fan-1 { // controlled by pwm 2 tach-ch = <3> }; }; ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread

Context: pwm-names is optional and does not add value here unless I am missing something. Also, if I understand the bindings correctly, all tachometer channels controlled by a single pwm are supposed to be listed in a single node. With the above, you'd then have fan1, fan2, and fan3 plus pwm1 and pwm3 (pwm2 would be disabled/unused). Code-wise, I think you'd then call struct of_phandle_args args; ... err = of_parse_phandle_with_args(np, "pwms", "#pwm-cells", 0, &args) with np pointing to the fan node. This should return the parameters in 'args'. However, unless you have a use case, I'd suggest not to implement support for "multiple fans controlled by single pwm" since that would require extra code and you would not actually be able to test it. A mandatory 1:1 mapping is fine with me. Support for 1:n mapping can be implemented if / when there is a use case. The same is true for registering the driver with the pwm subsystem - that would only be necessary if anyone ever uses one of the pwm channels for non-fan use. That makes me wonder if we actually need tach-ch in the first place or if something like fan-0 { pwms = <&pwm 0 255 22500 PWM_POLARITY_INVERTED>; }; fan-1 { pwms = <&pwm 1 255 22500 0>; }; ... would do for this chip.

The other complication is that one of the systems I have is x86 so I need to express this with the ACPI Device Properties compatibility code.

But we don't adjust the fan RPM directly so I think we're OK (just maybe some comments so people aren't confused by missing fans). The ADT7476 will adjust the PWM duty cycle based on the temperature, the fan RPM is just something we report (and generate an alarm if it goes too low). > The same is true for registering the driver with the pwm > subsystem - that would only be necessary if anyone ever uses one of the > pwm channels for non-fan use. Agreed. I won't plumb anything into the pwm subsystem. Although it would be kind of neat to see a LED that changes as the system gets hotter, kind of like an electronic thermochromic crystal. > > That makes me wonder if we actually need tach-ch in the first place or if > something like > > fan-0 { > pwms = <&pwm 0 255 22500 PWM_POLARITY_INVERTED>; > }; > fan-1 { > pwms = <&pwm 1 255 22500 0>; > }; > ... > would do for this chip.

In the pwm-cells property in the pwm provider binding . You might want to order it as <index freq flags duty> as usually that's the ordering done in most (all?) pwm provider bindings that I have seen.

I may be missing something, but I don't see any such bindings in pwm.txt or pwm.yaml. That is probably (likely ?) not needed for Chris' application, but it is an overall concern since presumably similar bindings should be used for other fan controllers. In this context, I think we'll need nested bindings, because the controller also supports temperature and voltage monitoring. Ultimately we'll also need tach-ch because the controller specifically supports controlling multiple fans from a single pwm channel and needs to be configured accordingly, at least for automatic fan control.

* [PATCH v2 2/2] hwmon: (adt7475) Add support for configuring initial PWM duty cycle 2024-05-08 21:55 [PATCH v2 0/2] hwmon: (adt7475) duty cycle configuration Chris Packham 2024-05-08 21:55 ` [PATCH v2 1/2] dt-bindings: hwmon: Document adt7475 PWM initial duty cycle Chris Packham @ 2024-05-08 21:55 ` Chris Packham 1 sibling, 0 replies; 14+ messages in thread From: Chris Packham @ 2024-05-08 21:55 UTC (permalink / raw) To: jdelvare, linux, robh, krzk+dt, conor+dt Cc: linux-hwmon, devicetree, linux-kernel, Chris Packham By default the PWM duty cycle in hardware is 100%. On some systems this can cause unwanted fan noise. Add the ability to take an initial PWM duty cycle and frequency via device properties. Signed-off-by: Chris Packham <chris.packham@alliedtelesis.co.nz> --- Notes: Changes in v2: - Use correct device property string for frequency - Allow -EINVAL and only warn on error - Use a frequency of 0 to indicate that the hardware should be left as-is drivers/hwmon/adt7475.c | 58 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 58 insertions(+) diff --git a/drivers/hwmon/adt7475.c b/drivers/hwmon/adt7475.c index 4224ffb30483..14bd618488f8 100644 --- a/drivers/hwmon/adt7475.c +++ b/drivers/hwmon/adt7475.c @@ -1662,6 +1662,56 @@ static int adt7475_set_pwm_polarity(struct i2c_client *client) return 0; } +static int adt7475_set_pwm_initial_freq(struct i2c_client *client) +{ + int ret, out, i; + u32 freqs[ADT7475_PWM_COUNT]; + int data; + + ret = device_property_read_u32_array(&client->dev, + "adi,pwm-initial-frequency", freqs, + ARRAY_SIZE(freqs)); + if (ret) + return ret; + + for (i = 0; i < ADT7475_PWM_COUNT; i++) { + if (!freqs[i]) + continue; + out = find_closest(freqs[i], pwmfreq_table, ARRAY_SIZE(pwmfreq_table)); + data = adt7475_read(TEMP_TRANGE_REG(i)); + if (data < 0) + return data; + data &= ~0xf; + data |= out; + + ret = i2c_smbus_write_byte_data(client, TEMP_TRANGE_REG(i), data); + if (ret) + return ret; + } + + return 0; +} + +static int adt7475_set_pwm_initial_duty(struct i2c_client *client) +{ + int ret, i; + u32 dutys[ADT7475_PWM_COUNT]; + + ret = device_property_read_u32_array(&client->dev, + "adi,pwm-initial-duty-cycle", dutys, + ARRAY_SIZE(dutys)); + if (ret) + return ret; + + for (i = 0; i < ADT7475_PWM_COUNT; i++) { + ret = i2c_smbus_write_byte_data(client, PWM_MAX_REG(i), dutys[i] & 0xff); + if (ret) + return ret; + } + + return 0; +} + static int adt7475_probe(struct i2c_client *client) { enum chips chip; @@ -1778,6 +1828,14 @@ static int adt7475_probe(struct i2c_client *client) if (ret && ret != -EINVAL) dev_warn(&client->dev, "Error configuring pwm polarity\n"); + ret = adt7475_set_pwm_initial_freq(client); + if (ret && ret != -EINVAL) + dev_warn(&client->dev, "Error configuring pwm frequency\n"); + + ret = adt7475_set_pwm_initial_duty(client); + if (ret && ret != -EINVAL) + dev_warn(&client->dev, "Error configuring pwm duty cycle\n"); + /* Start monitoring */ switch (chip) { case adt7475: -- 2.43.2 ^ permalink raw reply related [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread
