[PATCH v14 0/7] Rust Abstractions for PWM subsystem with TH1520 PWM driver

[PATCH v14 0/7] Rust Abstractions for PWM subsystem with TH1520 PWM driver

[Michal Wilczynski]

This patch series introduces Rust support for the T-HEAD TH1520 PWM
controller and demonstrates its use for fan control on the Sipeed Lichee
Pi 4A board.

The primary goal of this patch series is to introduce a basic set of
Rust abstractions for the Linux PWM subsystem. As a first user and
practical demonstration of these abstractions, the series also provides
a functional PWM driver for the T-HEAD TH1520 SoC. This allows control
of its PWM channels and ultimately enables temperature controlled fan
support for the Lichee Pi 4A board. This work aims to explore the use of
Rust for PWM drivers and lay a foundation for potential future Rust
based PWM drivers.

The core of this series is a new rust/kernel/pwm.rs module that provides
abstractions for writing PWM chip provider drivers in Rust. This has
been significantly reworked from v1 based on extensive feedback. The key
features of the new abstraction layer include:

 - Ownership and Lifetime Management: The pwm::Chip wrapper is managed
   by ARef, correctly tying its lifetime to its embedded struct device
   reference counter. Chip registration is handled by a pwm::Registration
   RAII guard, which guarantees that pwmchip_add is always paired with
   pwmchip_remove, preventing resource leaks.

 - Modern and Safe API: The PwmOps trait is now based on the modern
   waveform API (round_waveform_tohw, write_waveform, etc.) as recommended
   by the subsystem maintainer. It is generic over a driver's
   hardware specific data structure, moving all unsafe serialization logic
   into the abstraction layer and allowing drivers to be written in 100%
   safe Rust.

 - Ergonomics: The API provides safe, idiomatic wrappers for other PWM
   types (State, Args, Device, etc.) and uses standard kernel error
   handling patterns.

The series is structured as follows:
 - Expose static function pwmchip_release.
 - Rust PWM Abstractions: The new safe abstraction layer.
 - TH1520 PWM Driver: A new Rust driver for the TH1520 SoC, built on
   top of the new abstractions.
 - Device Tree Bindings & Nodes: The remaining patches add the necessary
   DT bindings and nodes for the TH1520 PWM controller, and the PWM fan
   configuration for the Lichee Pi 4A board.

Testing:
Tested on the TH1520 SoC. The fan works correctly. The duty/period
calculations are correct. Fan starts slow when the chip is not hot and
gradually increases the speed when PVT reports higher temperatures.

The patches doesn't contain any dependencies that are not currently in
the mainline kernel anymore.

Changes in v14:
- Re-base on top of 6.17-rc1.
- Cosmetic change in label function.
- Link to v13: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250806-rust-next-pwm-working-fan-for-sending-v13-0-690b669295b6@samsung.com

Changes in v13:
- Re-add the T-HEAD TH1520 PWM driver and its device tree bindings, as
  Iomem series got merged into mainline kernel.
- Fix Args struct to be consistent with State - no Opaque needed for
  copies.
- Replace tuple retur type in the PwmOps trait with dedicated struct
  for improved clarity.
- Use build_assert for WfHw size, as it doesn't have to be runtime
  check.
- Various cosmetic changes.
- Link to v12: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250717-rust-next-pwm-working-fan-for-sending-v12-0-40f73defae0c@samsung.com

Changes in v12:
 - Reworked the PWM abstractions to use the subclassing pattern as
   suggested by reviewers.
 - pwm::Chip and its driver data are now allocated in a single, contiguous
   memory block via pwmchip_alloc() sizeof_priv argument.
 - Chip::new() now uses the pin init API to construct the driver data
   in place, removing the need for a separate allocation.
 - The  PwmOps trait is now implemented directly by the driver data struct
   itself, removing the DrvData associated type and the ForeignOwnable
   trait.
 - The custom release handler has been updated to call drop_in_place on the driver
   data, ensuring destructors are run correctly before the underlying
   memory is freed.
 - Moved the pwmchip_release prototype in the C header to a separate
   section to clarify it is for FFI use only, as requested.
 - Added a Prerequisite-patch-id trailer to the cover letter to declare
   the dependency on the PWM_WFHWSIZE patch.

- Link to v11: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250710-rust-next-pwm-working-fan-for-sending-v11-0-93824a16f9ec@samsung.com

Changes in v11:
- Dropped driver and DT commits, as they don't compile based on publicly
  known commit.
- Re-based on top of pwm/for-next.
- Reverted back to devres::Devres::new_foreign_owned, as pwm/for-next
  doesn't contain 'register' re-factor, which is present in linux-next,
  queued for the next merge window. The conflict is trivial, simply
  change 'new_foreign_owned' -> 'register'.
- Added list to MAINTAINERS entry as requested.
- Link to v10: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250707-rust-next-pwm-working-fan-for-sending-v10-0-d0c5cf342004@samsung.com

Changes in v10:
 - Exported the C pwmchip_release function and called it from the custom
   Rust release_callback to fix a memory leak of the pwm_chip struct.
 - Removed the PwmOps::free callback, as it is not needed for idiomatic
   Rust resource management.
 - Removed the redundant is_null check for drvdata in the release handler,
   as the Rust API guarantees a valid pointer is always provided.

- Link to v9: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250706-rust-next-pwm-working-fan-for-sending-v9-0-42b5ac2101c7@samsung.com

Changes in v9:
 - Encapsulated vtable setup in Chip::new(): The Chip::new() function is
   now generic over the PwmOps implementation. This allows it to create and
   assign the vtable internally, which simplifies the public API by
   removing the ops_vtable parameter from Registration::register().
 - Fixed memory leak with a release handler: A custom release_callback is
   now assigned to the embedded struct device's release hook. This
   guarantees that driver specific data is always freed when the chip is
   destroyed, even if registration fails.
 - The PwmOpsVTable is now defined as a const associated item to ensure
   it has a 'static lifetime.
 - Combined introductory commits: The Device, Chip, and PwmOps abstractions
   are now introduced in a single commit. This was necessary to resolve the
   circular dependencies between them and present a clean, compilable unit
   for review.

- Link to v8: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250704-rust-next-pwm-working-fan-for-sending-v8-0-951e5482c9fd@samsung.com

Changes in v8:
 - Dropped already accepted commit, re-based on top of linux-next
 - Reworked the Chip and PwmOps APIs to address the drvdata() type-safety
   comment. Chip is now generic, and PwmOps uses an associated type
   to provide compile-time guarantees.
 - Added a parent device sanity check to Registration::register().
 - Updated drvdata() to return the idiomatic T::Borrowed<'_>.
 - added temporary unsafe blocks in the driver, as the current
   abstraction for Clk is neiter Safe nor Sync. I think eventually
   proper abstraction for Clk will be added as in a current state it's
   not very useful.

Changes in v7:
- Made parent_device function private and moved casts to Device<Bound>
  there as well.
- Link to v6: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250701-rust-next-pwm-working-fan-for-sending-v6-0-2710932f6f6b@samsung.com

Changes in v6:
 - Re-based on top of linux-next, dropped two already accepted commits.
 - After re-basing the IoMem dependent patchset stopped working,
   reworked it to use similar API like the PCI subsystem (I think it
   will end up the same). Re-worked the driver for it as well.
 - Remove the apply and get_state callbacks, and most of the State as
   well, as the old way of implementing drivers should not be possible
   in Rust. Left only enabled(), since it's useful for my driver.
 - Removed the public set_drvdata() method from pwm::Chip
 - Moved WFHWSIZE to the public include/linux/pwm.h header and renamed it
   to PWM_WFHWSIZE, allowing bindgen to create safe FFI bindings.
 - Corrected the ns_to_cycles integer calculation in the TH1520 driver to
   handle overflow correctly.
 - Updated the Kconfig entry for the TH1520 driver to select the Rust
   abstractions for a better user experience.

- Link to v5: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250623-rust-next-pwm-working-fan-for-sending-v5-0-0ca23747c23e@samsung.com

Changes in v5:
- Reworked `pwm::Chip` creation to take driver data directly, which
  allowed making the `chip.drvdata()` accessor infallible
- added missing `pwm.c` file lost during the commit split (sorry !)
- Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250618-rust-next-pwm-working-fan-for-sending-v4-0-a6a28f2b6d8a@samsung.com

Changes in v4:
 - Reworked the pwm::Registration API to use the devres framework,
   addressing lifetime issue.
 - Corrected the PwmOps trait and its callbacks to use immutable references
   (&Chip, &Device) for improved safety.
 - Applied various code style and naming cleanups based on feedback

- Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250617-rust-next-pwm-working-fan-for-sending-v3-0-1cca847c6f9f@samsung.com

Changes in v3:
 - Addressed feedback from Uwe by making multiple changes to the TH1520
   driver and the abstraction layer.
 - Split the core PWM abstractions into three focused commits to ease
   review per Benno request.
 - Confirmed the driver now works correctly with CONFIG_PWM_DEBUG enabled
   by implementing the full waveform API, which correctly reads the
   hardware state.
 - Refactored the Rust code to build cleanly with
   CONFIG_RUST_BUILD_ASSERT_ALLOW=n, primarily by using the try_* family of
   functions for IoMem access.
 - Included several cosmetic changes and cleanups to the abstractions
   per Miguel review.

- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250610-rust-next-pwm-working-fan-for-sending-v2-0-753e2955f110@samsung.com

 - Reworked the PWM abstraction layer based on extensive feedback.
 - Replaced initial devm allocation with a proper ARef<Chip> lifetime model
   using AlwaysRefCounted.
 - Implemented a Registration RAII guard to ensure safe chip add/remove.
 - Migrated the PwmOps trait from the legacy .apply callback to the modern
   waveform API.
 - Refactored the TH1520 driver to use the new, safer abstractions.
 - Added a patch to mark essential bus clocks as CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED to fix
   boot hangs when the PWM and thermal sensors are enabled.

[PATCH v14 1/7] pwm: Export `pwmchip_release` for external use

[Michal Wilczynski]

The upcoming Rust abstraction layer for the PWM subsystem uses a custom
`dev->release` handler to safely manage the lifetime of its driver
data.

To prevent leaking the memory of the `struct pwm_chip` (allocated by
`pwmchip_alloc`), this custom handler must also call the original
`pwmchip_release` function to complete the cleanup.

Make `pwmchip_release` a global, exported function so that it can be
called from the Rust FFI bridge. This involves removing the `static`
keyword, adding a prototype to the public header, and exporting the
symbol.

[PATCH v14 2/7] rust: pwm: Add Kconfig and basic data structures

[Michal Wilczynski]

Introduce the foundational support for PWM abstractions in Rust.

This commit adds the `RUST_PWM_ABSTRACTIONS` Kconfig option to enable
the feature, along with the necessary build-system support and C
helpers.

It also introduces the first set of safe wrappers for the PWM
subsystem, covering the basic data carrying C structs and enums:
- `Polarity`: A safe wrapper for `enum pwm_polarity`.
- `Waveform`: A wrapper for `struct pwm_waveform`.
- `Args`: A wrapper for `struct pwm_args`.
- `State`: A wrapper for `struct pwm_state`.

These types provide memory safe, idiomatic Rust representations of the
core PWM data structures and form the building blocks for the
abstractions that will follow.

[PATCH v14 3/7] rust: pwm: Add complete abstraction layer

[Michal Wilczynski]

Introduce a comprehensive abstraction layer for the PWM subsystem to
enable writing drivers in Rust.

Because `Device`, `Chip`, and `PwmOps` all refer to each other, they
form a single, indivisible unit with circular dependencies. They are
introduced together in this single commit to create a complete,
compilable abstraction layer.

The main components are:
 - Data Wrappers: Safe, idiomatic wrappers for core C types like
   `pwm_device`, and `pwm_chip`.

 - PwmOps Trait: An interface that drivers can implement to provide
   their hardware-specific logic, mirroring the C `pwm_ops` interface.

 - FFI VTable and Adapter: A bridge to connect the high-level PwmOps trait
   to the C kernel's pwm_ops vtable.

 - Allocation and Lifetime Management: A high-level `Chip::new()`
   API to safely allocate a chip and a `Registration` guard that integrates
   with `devres` to manage the chip's registration with the PWM core.
   An `AlwaysRefCounted` implementation and a custom release handler
   prevent memory leaks by managing the chip's lifetime and freeing
   driver data correctly.

This looks like the only constructor for `Device`, and it has restricted
visibility.

Would it be helpful to provide a doc-test here to show intended usage?

After looking at the C code, it looks like the raw `pwm_device` pointer
is extracted from a `device` struct, or stored in an array of
`pwm_device` pointers.

Is the intent that the `pwm_device` will always be allocated from C
code? For example, is a `pub fn new() -> &'a Self`-style constructor
not possible/desired?

You're correct the intent is for pwm_device to be allocated and managed
by the C core. The Rust code only ever receives a raw pointer to an
existing device during callbacks.

For this reason, a public new() constructor isn't appropriate, and the
from_raw function is pub(crate) for use only by the FFI adapter. A
doc-test is also impractical since we can't create a valid pwm_device in
a test environment.

Introduce a PWM driver for the T-HEAD TH1520 SoC, written in Rust and
utilizing the safe PWM abstractions from the preceding commit.

The driver implements the pwm::PwmOps trait using the modern waveform
API (round_waveform_tohw, write_waveform, etc.) to support configuration
of period, duty cycle, and polarity for the TH1520's PWM channels.

Resource management is handled using idiomatic Rust patterns. The PWM
chip object is allocated via pwm::Chip::new and its registration with
the PWM core is managed by the pwm::Registration RAII guard. This
ensures pwmchip_remove is always called when the driver unbinds,
preventing resource leaks. Device managed resources are used for the
MMIO region, and the clock lifecycle is correctly managed in the
driver's private data Drop implementation.

The driver's core logic is written entirely in safe Rust, with no unsafe
blocks, except for the Send and Sync implementations for the driver
data, which are explained in the comments.

+//! Rust T-HEAD TH1520 PWM driver
+//!
+//! Limitations:
+//! - The period and duty cycle are controlled by 32-bit hardware registers,
+//!   limiting the maximum resolution.
+//! - The driver supports continuous output mode only; one-shot mode is not
+//!   implemented.
+//! - The controller hardware provides up to 6 PWM channels.
+//! - Reconfiguration is glitch free - new period and duty cycle values are
+//!   latched and take effect at the start of the next period.
+//! - Polarity is handled via a simple hardware inversion bit; arbitrary
+//!   duty cycle offsets are not supported.
+//! - Disabling a channel is achieved by configuring its duty cycle to zero to
+//!   produce a static low output. Clearing the `start` does not reliably
+//!   force the static inactive level defined by the `INACTOUT` bit. Hence
+//!   this method is not used in this driver.

> +//! Limitations:
> +//! - The period and duty cycle are controlled by 32-bit hardware registers,
> +//!   limiting the maximum resolution.
> +//! - The driver supports continuous output mode only; one-shot mode is not
> +//!   implemented.
> +//! - The controller hardware provides up to 6 PWM channels.
> +//! - Reconfiguration is glitch free - new period and duty cycle values are
> +//!   latched and take effect at the start of the next period.
> +//! - Polarity is handled via a simple hardware inversion bit; arbitrary
> +//!   duty cycle offsets are not supported.
> +//! - Disabling a channel is achieved by configuring its duty cycle to zero to
> +//!   produce a static low output. Clearing the `start` does not reliably
> +//!   force the static inactive level defined by the `INACTOUT` bit. Hence
> +//!   this method is not used in this driver.

[PATCH v14 7/7] riscv: dts: thead: Add PWM fan and thermal control

[Michal Wilczynski]

Add Device Tree nodes to enable a PWM controlled fan and it's associated
thermal management for the Lichee Pi 4A board.

This enables temperature-controlled active cooling for the Lichee Pi 4A
board based on SoC temperature.

Do you think it makes sense to coordinate this with the "Initial thermal

Hi,
It seems to me like using the HW PWM is just a better solution for
driving the fans. However as pointed in the discussion currently Rust
requires LLVM, so people compiling with gcc will not be able to compile
the driver for some time until the gcc support becomes better.

I think there is a way to express in Device Tree the fallback logic -
if Rust not available then use SW PWM. So I guess the pragmatic way to
go is to merge SW PWM temporary fix first, and later when gcc becomes
better at compiling Rust patch it up to use HW PWM instead.

In case it helps/clarifies: the C side can be built with GCC (i.e.
building without `LLVM=1`, with Rust using its LLVM backend), but it
is a best-effort hack and the goal is to eventually use
`rustc_codegen_gcc` and/or GCC Rust. Some users/distributions use it
nevertheless.

Cheers,
Miguel
