[PATCH v6 0/1] i2c: designware: defer probe if child GpioInt controllers are not bound

[PATCH v6 0/1] i2c: designware: defer probe if child GpioInt controllers are not bound

[Hardik Prakash]

Patch 1/2 (pinctrl-amd GPIO IRQ fix) is already in Linus Walleij's
tree. This replaces patch 2 with a generic solution suggested by
Mario Limonciello.

The root cause: i2c_designware probes AMDI0010:02 before pinctrl-amd
completes. Dynamic debug tracing confirmed the race:

  0.285952  amd_gpio_probe: registering gpiochip  <- GPIO chip visible
  0.287121  amd_gpio_probe: requesting parent IRQ <- probe still running
  0.301454  AMDI0010:02 dw_i2c_plat_probe: start  <- races here
  2.348157  lost arbitration

Previous attempts to fix this via initcall promotion (subsys_initcall,
fs_initcall, arch_initcall) all failed because the race is not about
when the driver registers but about when probe completes. The GPIO chip
becomes visible to the system via gpiochip_add_data() before
amd_gpio_probe() finishes, and i2c-designware probes AMDI0010:02 in
that window.

This patch adds a generic check that walks ACPI child devices, finds
any GpioInt resources, and defers probe if the referenced GPIO
controllers are not yet fully bound. No DMI matching required.

v6:
 - Replace DMI-specific deferral with generic GpioInt dependency check
   walking ACPI child devices (suggested by Mario Limonciello)

v5:
 - Add blank line before #include <linux/acpi.h> (Bartosz Golaszewski)
 - Use scoped_guard(device, gpio_dev) (Bartosz Golaszewski)

v4:
 - Rebase onto Linus Walleij's tree (patch 1 already there)
 - Use --base so series is correctly 1/1 (Andy Shevchenko)
 - Add subsys_initcall test results (Mario Limonciello)

v3:
 - Fix variable declaration style in dw_i2c_needs_amd_gpio_dep (Andy Shevchenko)
 - Add BugLink tag (Andy Shevchenko)
 - CC AMD engineers (Andy Shevchenko)

v2:
 - Replace custom HID/UID lookup with acpi_dev_get_first_match_dev()
 - Use device_is_bound() under device_lock() with explanatory comments
 - Add Assisted-by tags per coding-assistants.rst

[PATCH v6 1/1] i2c: designware: defer probe if child GpioInt controllers are not bound

[Hardik Prakash]

I2C controllers may have child devices with GpioInt resources that
depend on GPIO controllers to be fully initialized. If the I2C
controller probes and enumerates children before the referenced GPIO
controller has completed probe, GPIO interrupts may not be properly
configured, leading to device failures.

On Lenovo Yoga 7 14AGP11, the WACF2200 touchscreen (child of
AMDI0010:02) has a GpioInt resource pointing to GPIO 157 on the
pinctrl-amd controller (AMDI0030:00). When i2c-designware probes
AMDI0010:02 before pinctrl-amd finishes initializing, I2C transactions
occur before the GPIO IRQ quirk in amd_gpio_probe() has run, causing:

  i2c_designware AMDI0010:02: i2c_dw_handle_tx_abort: lost arbitration

Add a generic dependency check in i2c-designware that walks ACPI child
devices, identifies any GpioInt resources, resolves the referenced GPIO
controllers, and defers probe if those controllers are not yet bound.

This ensures GPIO controllers complete initialization (including IRQ
setup and quirks) before I2C child enumeration begins, fixing the race
without device-specific quirks or DMI matching.

The probe ordering race was confirmed via dynamic debug tracing:

  0.285952  amd_gpio_probe: registering gpiochip  <- GPIO chip visible
  0.287121  amd_gpio_probe: requesting parent IRQ <- probe still running
  0.301454  AMDI0010:02 dw_i2c_plat_probe: start  <- races here
  2.348157  lost arbitration

No. Tested v6 alone (without patch 1) on a tree based on
63d2059cd665 (the commit immediately before patch 1 in Walleij's
fixes branch). Touchscreen and stylus fully functional, no arbitration
errors.

This confirms your original concern was correct -- the existing
amd_gpio_irq_enable() flow works fine once probe ordering is fixed.
Patch 1's manual IRQ restoration was only necessary because the race
prevented amd_gpio_irq_enable() from ever being called.

v6 is sufficient as a standalone fix. Patch 1 in Linus Walleij's tree
can be reverted if desired.

Also noting that the kernel test robot flagged an unused 'ret' variable
in check_child_gpioint() -- I have a fix ready and will send v7 once
the question of patch 1 is settled.

Thanks,
Hardik

What happened to the idea of doing this in subsystem-level GPIO ACPI code?

I tested it and reported back on May 20th in this thread -- it didn't
work. The deferral in acpi_get_gpiod() never triggers for AMDI0010:02
because i2c-designware does not call acpi_get_gpiod() during its probe.
The GpioInt resource is on the WACF2200 touchscreen device (TPNL), not
on the I2C controller itself. So the gpiolib-acpi path is never
exercised when AMDI0010:02 probes.

The race is between amd_gpio_probe() completing and dw_i2c_plat_probe()
starting. Nothing in the gpiolib-acpi layer gets called in that window.

Thanks,
Hardik

Please make sure that we drop the now unnecessary patch that was 
committed from the earlier series when queuing this.  If that has 
already made it into a PR to linus (as part of -fixes or so) we should 
get it reverted.

Linus Walleij confirmed it has already been pulled into Torvalds' tree,
so a revert will be needed. I'll leave that to the maintainers to
coordinate.

I'll send v8 now with your Reviewed-by and Bart's Acked-by collected.

Thanks,

IMO - Just send your next version with a revert of that first patch 
frontloaded in the series.
