[PATCH 0/5] Fix paths unexpectedly returning Mx error codes

[PATCH 0/5] Fix paths unexpectedly returning Mx error codes

[Jorge Marques]

A smatch warning on the iio/adc/ad4062.c driver raised that many i3c
methods that documented returning "0 on success or negative error code"
but actually propagate positive Mx error codes (I3C_ERROR_M0=1, M1=2,
M2=3) from i3c_master_send_ccc_cmd_locked().

Close paths returning positive Mx error codes when 0 for success or
negative error code otherwise are explicitly stated, ambiguous or
expected.

If any Mx error code is present, for each controller:
- adi: returns -EIO
- cdns: returns -EIO
- dw:
  - RESPONSE_ERROR_IBA_NACK -> I3C_ERROR_M2 : returns -EIO
  - RESPONSE_ERROR_ADDRESS_NACK : returns -EINVAL
- renesas :
  - NRSPQP_ERROR_IBA_NACK : returns -EIO
  - NRSPQP_ERROR_ADDRESS_NACK : returns -EINVAL
- svc : Unclear ret value, but cmd->err = I3C_ERROR_M2 for any ret

Each i3c_master_send_ccc_cmd_locked caller handles cmd->err directly.
There are three exceptions all related to the bus initialization:
* RSTDAA -> i3c_master_rstdaa_locked
* ENTDAA -> i3c_master_entdaa_locked
* DISEC (broadcast address only) -> i3c_master_enec_disec_locked

For direct enable ibi, disable ibi to a target, error code M2 should not
be suppressed, the device must acknowledge it.

The patch series start with moving the error check suppressions, then
does the actual change in i3c_master_send_ccc_cmd_locked to return
0 on success or negative error code otherwise (drops the positive Mx
error codes). Then ends with returning the xfer->err at
adi_i3c_master_end_xfer_locked.

The series was tested with adi-i3c-master.c and iio/adc/ad4062.c.

[PATCH 1/5] i3c: master: Move rstdaa error suppression

[Jorge Marques]

The CCC RSTDAA is invoked with i3c_master_rstdaa_locked
even if there are no devices active on the bus, resulting
in error I3C_ERROR_M2. Handle inside i3c_master_rstdaa_locked,
checking cmd->err directly.

This is an unrelated change.  The original intention was to perform
DAA even if RSTDAA fails.  If you really want this, it needs to be
a separate patch with separate justification.

Hi Adrian, handling I3C_ERROR_M2 is unchanged.

The intention is to perform the DAA if the RSTDAA fail due to a
I3C_ERROR_M2, this behaviour is unchanged, the duplicated error
suppression was moved from the do_daa call to inside
i3c_master_rstdaa_locked, and added a comment to explaining why it is okay
to fail: the i3c controller may probe, without any active i3c device on
the bus to acknowledge the CCC broadcast transfer.

The core purpose of the series is to fix the accidental propagation of
Mx error codes where 0 or negative errors are expected, to achieve this,
the error suppression have been moved to scopes that contain cmd.err and
clarified why they exist in the first place, to not have "ret = cmd.err"
anymore.

There are three exceptions all related to the bus initialization:
* RSTDAA -> i3c_master_rstdaa_locked
* ENTDAA -> i3c_master_entdaa_locked
* DISEC (broadcast address only) -> i3c_master_enec_disec_locked

I was actually wondering if it wouldn't be more adequate to call a
"probe bus" broadcast CCC that would be the only acceptable to return
I3C_ERROR_M2, and if so, we don't do the RSTDAA,DISEC at all (no i3c
devices, why continue?). But since ENTDAA suppression is still needed,
because the DAA always ends in NACK and the specification doesn't
specify if the RTL should suppress an I3C_ERROR_M2 after the ENTDAA
initial ACK, the benefits are minimal.

Best regards,
Jorge

No, the intention was as the code is written.  DAA is done
irrespective of whether RSTDAA fails.  The behaviour has changed:
before it always does DAA, after it does not always.

Hi Adrian, you are right, the og behaviour is to continue on any error.
v2 will bring the rstret back, thanks for pointing out! For context, did
you experience peripherals/controllers that failed with
err != I3C_ERROR_M2 on RSTDAA? Would be nice to map at least one
non-spec-conforming case.

Jorge

DAA is being used to ensure devices that lost power in suspend
have a DAA assigned.

RSTDAA is used also in the case of hibernation because the hibernation
boot, suspend, restore, may have left the device with the wrong DAA.

So the two are not directly related.

The commit message could use some explanation why the change
is being made, what it achieves in terms of preparing for the
later fix.

It should mention that there are 4 call sites of i3c_master_rstdaa_locked().
2 ignore the return value, and so need not be changed.
And the 2 in this patch.

Also, since this is a prerequisite for a bug fix, I would
suggest a fixes tag.

[PATCH 2/5] i3c: master: Move entdaa error suppression

[Jorge Marques]

The CCC ENTDAA is invoked with i3c_master_entdaa_locked and yields
error I3C_ERROR_M2 if there are no devices active on the bus.
Some controllers may also yield if there are no more devices need an
dynamic address, since the sequence do always end in a NACK.

Handle inside i3c_master_entdaa_locked, checking cmd->err directly.

Commit message has the same issues as patch 1

And the pertinent fact that there are only 2 call sites of
i3c_master_entdaa_locked() and both are dealt with.

That comment change seems premature.  Mx (x!=2) error codes are propagated
until patch 4

[PATCH 3/5] i3c: master: Move bus_init error suppression

[Jorge Marques]

The CCC DISEC to broadcast address is invoked with
i3c_master_enec_disec_locked and yields error I3C_ERROR_M2 if there are
no devices active on the bus. This is expected at the bus initialization
stage, where it is not known yet that there are no active devices on the
bus.

Handle inside i3c_master_enec_disec_locked the exact corner case to not
require propagating positive Mx error codes.

Seems a bit ugly.  Maybe it would be better to pass down a parameter
to specify caller's requirement for M2 errors e.g.

static int i3c_master_enec_disec_locked(struct i3c_master_controller *master,
					u8 addr, bool enable, u8 evts, bool suppress_m2)
...
	if (ret && suppress_m2 && cmd.err == I3C_ERROR_M2)
		ret = 0;

[PATCH 4/5] i3c: master: Negative error codes at send_ccc_cmd

[Jorge Marques]

i3c_master_send_ccc_cmd_locked would propagate cmd->err (positive,
Mx codes) to the ret variable, cascading down multiple methods until
reaching methods that explicitly stated they would return 0 on success
or negative error code. For example, the call chain:

  i3c_device_enable_ibi <- i3c_dev_enable_ibi_locked <-
  master->ops.enable_ibi <- i3c_master_enec_locked <-
  i3c_master_enec_disec_locked <- i3c_master_send_ccc_cmd_locked

Fix this by returning the ret value, callers can
still read the cmd->err value if ret is negative.

You should say something about how you know that is safe
to do. e.g. although there are myriad call paths, the code
never distinguishes positive from negative error codes except
in cases where it explicitly checks for I3C_ERROR_M2 and
those have been dealt with in the preparation patches.

[PATCH 5/5] i3c: master: adi: Return xfer->ret at send CCC

[Jorge Marques]

Return the xfer-> ret error code at adi_i3c_master_send_ccc_cmd to
propagate the adi_i3c_master_end_xfer_locked value. In particular, if
any of the Mx values are present in the sent commands, returns -EIO.

Isn't this also a bug fix.   I suggest a fixes tag and
better commit message e.g.

  i3c: master: adi: Fix missing error propagation for CCC commands

  adi_i3c_master_send_ccc_cmd() always returned 0, ignoring the transfer
  result populated in the completion path. As a consequence, CCC command
  errors - such as those reported by adi_i3c_master_end_xfer_locked() - were
  silently dropped.

  Fix this by returning xfer->ret so that callers correctly receive any
  transfer error codes.

By the way, I don't see an error code being set in the timeout case?

Hi Adrian, when the xfer is allocated, the default xfer->ret value is
set to -ETIMEDOUT, so un-queuing retains this value and is (with this
patch) returned.

Jorge
