[PATCH 1/3] hdpvr: Add I2C and ir-kdb-i2c registration of the Zilog Z8 IR chip

[Andy Walls]

Add I2C registration of the Zilog Z8F0811 IR microcontroller for either
lirc_zilog or ir-kbd-i2c to use.  This is a required step in removing
lirc_zilog's use of the deprecated struct i2c_adapter.id field.

Hmm... It seems that this will just disable the IR logic... Why do you need it?
Your comment is not clear to me.

The diff did not provide you with all the context you needed.  See:

http://git.linuxtv.org/awalls/media_tree.git?a=blob;f=drivers/media/video/hdpvr/hdpvr-core.c;h=f7d1ee55185a527c4b0302acdbd30c5b5f523c1c;hb=15a40f5388f382243b6bc41c6874e1549324e789#l380

Note just before my addition, that the I2C adapter of the HD PVR is not
currently being registered in the existing hdpvr code:

 382         /* until i2c is working properly */
 383         retval = 0; /* hdpvr_register_i2c_adapter(dev); */
 384         if (retval < 0) {
 385                 v4l2_err(&dev->v4l2_dev, "registering i2c adapter failed\n");
 386                 goto error;
 387         }
 388 
 389         /* until i2c is working properly */
 390         retval = 0; /* hdpvr_register_i2c_ir(dev); */
 391         if (retval < 0)
 392                 v4l2_err(&dev->v4l2_dev, "registering i2c IR devices failed\n");

A few years ago, Brandon Jenkins was able to trigger a USB/I2C related
Oops when both the hdpvr and cx18 drivers were loaded in his system.  At
the time Janne determined it would be prudent to disable hdpvr I2C
support.

I'd really like Janne to comment on this, but it may be that hdpvr I2C
problems are no longer an issue(?). See this thread:

http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-media@vger.kernel.org/msg09163.html
  
If hdpvr I2C functionality is ever going to be re-enabled, these IR
changes make hdpvr consistent with what ivtv and cx18 do for their Zilog
Z8F0811 IR controller.

IF hdpvr I2C functionality is *never* going to be re-enabled, then this
whole patch can be dropped.

For comparison of the above with cx18 (very similar) and ivtv (similar
but more complex), see:

Yes it is odd. My intent was ensure that after removal of adap->id, that
the hdpvr driver would, in the future, identify its device in a manner
lirc_zilog was expecting.

I don't have a HD PVR with which to test things myself.  So putting in
all the plumbing lowers the barrier for developers like Jarrod or Janne
to test lirc_zilog with an HD PVR when/if they re-enable I2C in hdpvr.

Hmm... I know nothing about the hardware designs used on hd-pvr, but
it seems wrong to have both lirc-zilog and ir-kbd-i2c registering for
RX for the same device.

There are variants with hd-pvr that uses ir-kbd-i2c and others
that use another I2C chipset? Or, for some versions of Z8, the RX logic
is identical to the one provided by ir-kbd-i2c?

There are some historical reasons for why that is the case

1. ir-kbd-i2c:
	a. was in kernel
	b. provides Rx keycodes using the linux input subsystem
	c. the program in the Z8 outputs RX data that is compatible
	    with the Rx data output by IR microcontrollers on older
	    Hauppauge designs.
	d. the keymap was relatively fixed

2. lirc_i2c:
	a. was not in kernel
	b. provided Rx data the "LIRC way" via /dev/lirc
	c. the program in the Z8 outputs RX data that is compatible
	    with the Rx data output by IR microcontrollers on older
	    Hauppauge designs.
	d. the LIRC keymap could be changed by the user

3. lirc_pvr150 (aka lirc_zilog):
	a. was not in kernel and was not in LIRC
	b. provided both Rx and Tx interfaces the "LIRC way"
	    via /dev/lirc
	c. Any user who whats to use the Z8 for IR Tx has to use this
	    module
	d. old linux kernels had problems with the Z8 getting
	    hung up on the I2C bus when doing Tx and RX, and Z8
	    chip resets to recover from than hang affected Rx.

There are no real variants AFAIK.  All HD PVRs should have a Z8 chip and
are capable of IR Tx and Rx

The program in the Z8 outputs RX data that is compatible with the Rx
data output by IR microcontrollers on older Hauppauge designs.

The lirc_zilog.c code implies some Z8's might not support Tx, but I
suspect that case is really just another chip at the same Z8 Rx I2C
address (0x71) that is not actually a Z8.  


Having multiple modules support the device gives the end user some
choice.

1. ir-kbd-i2c supports the "it just works" use case that was discussed
when implementing the new IR/RC core.


2. A user that only wants Rx with the Z8, uses either ir-kbd-i2c or
lirc_i2c.  They are more reliable.

Since the keymaps for ir-kbd-i2c are now modifiable from userspace,  and
if "cooked" IR Rx data is not passed out via /dev/lirc anymore, then Z8
support can be pulled out of lirc_i2c.  Most or all of lirc_i2c can be
collapsed into ir-kbd-i2c anyway.


3. A user that wants Tx with the Z8 must use lirc_zilog, which needs a
"firmware" and which also handles Rx at the moment.

The reasons for keeping Rx and Tx coupled in lirc_zilog are getting
thin, so it may be possible to convert lirc_zilog to only handle Tx, but
I'm not sure yet.  There may still need to be some sort of locking
between accessing the Tx and Rx I2C addresses of the Z8.

Remove use of deprecated struct i2c_adapter.id field.  In the process,
perform different detection of the HD PVR's Z8 IR microcontroller versus
the other Hauppauge cards with the Z8 IR microcontroller.

Also added a comment about probe() function behavior that needs to be
fixed.

I don't get the change. What was wrong with the "goto done"? Now you
duplicated the dprintk(), and as far as I can see the "done" label is
left unused.

The debug message format is long and confusing. What about:

	dprintk("%s: %s on i2c-%d (%s), client addr=0x%02x\n",
		__func__, id->name, adap->nr, adap->name, client->addr);

This can be easily addressed. You can call i2c_new_dummy() from within
the probe function to register secondary addresses. See
drivers/misc/eeprom/at24.c for an example.

That being said, I doubt this is what we want here. i2c_new_dummy() is
only meant for cases where the board code (or bridge driver in your
case) declares a single I2C device by its main address. Here, you have
declared both the TX and RX (sub-)devices in your bridge driver, so
your I2C device driver's probe() function _will_ be called twice. It
makes no sense to ask for this in the bridge driver and then to look
for a way to work around it in the I2C device driver.

Looking at ir_probe(), it seems rather clear to me that it needs to be
redesigned seriously. This function is still doing old-style device
detection which does not belong there in the standard device driver
binding model. The bridge driver did take care of this already so there
is no point in doing it again.

>From a purely technical perspective, changing client->addr in the
probe() function is totally prohibited.

So we need more changes done to the lirc_zilog driver than your patch
currently does. In particular:
* struct IR should _not_ include private i2c_client structures. i2c
  clients are provided by the i2c-core, either as a parameter to the
  probe() function or as the result of i2c_new_dummy(). Private copies
  are never needed if you use the proper binding model.
* struct IR should probably be split into IR_rx and IR_tx. Having a
  single data structure for both TX and RX doesn't make sense when
  probe() is called once for each.
* ir_probe() should be cleaned up to do only what we expect from a
  probe function, i.e. initialize and bind. No device detection, no
  hard-coded client address. Note that it may make sense to move the
  disable_rx and disable_tx module parameters to the bridge driver, as
  in the standard device driver binding model, disabling must be done
  earlier (you want to prevent the I2C device from being instantiated.)

I see comments in the code about RX and TX interfering and IR.ir_lock
being used to prevent that. I presume this is the reason for the
current driver design. However, I can see that the driver uses
i2c_master_send() followed by i2c_master_send() or i2c_master_recv()
when it should use i2c_transfer() to guarantee that nobody uses the
adapter in-between. Assuming that the Z8 understands the repeated-start
I2C condition, this should hopefully let you get rid of IR.ir_lock and
solve the driver design issue.

Re: [PATCH 3/3] lirc_zilog: Remove use of deprecated struct i2c_adapter.id field

[Mauro Carvalho Chehab]

Hi Jean,

Thanks for your acks for patches 1 and 2. I've already applied the patches 
on my tree and at linux-next. I'll try to add the acks on it before sending
upstream.

You probably missed some other changes here. There's a patch fixing the warning
that happens due to the done: label that it was not used.

While this code is, in practice, not used, as IR support is disabled at hdpvr, 
I don't see much sense on trying to optimize its code. I'd rather prefer
to see some patches re-enabling IR support on hdpvr and fixing the remaining
issues at lirc_zilog, converting it to use RC core.

Agreed. Btw, there are some other hacks with client->addr abuse on some 
other random places at drivers/media, mostly at the device bridge code, 
used to test if certain devices are present and/or to open some I2C gates 
before doing some init code. People use this approach as it provides a
fast way to do some things. On several cases, the amount of code for
doing such hack is very small, when compared to writing a new I2C driver
just to do some static initialization code. Not sure what would be the 
better approach to fix them.

Yeah, using i2c_transfer() will probably do the trick.

If you can't, it's fine. I merely wanted to show my support to Andy's
work, I don't care if I'm not counted as a reviewer for these small

Hard to tell without seeing the exact code. Ideally,
i2c_new_dummy() would cover these cases: you don't need to write an
actual driver for the device, it's perfectly OK to use the freshly
instantiated i2c_client from the bridge driver directly. Alternatively,
i2c_smbus_xfer() or i2c_transfer() can be used for one-time data
exchange with any slave on the bus as long as you know what you're
doing (i.e. you know that no i2c_client will ever be instantiated for
this slave.)

If you have specific cases you don't know how to solve, please point me
to them and I'll take a look.

Ok. So, it is probably better to keep it as-is, to avoid rebasing and having
to wait for a couple days at linux-next before sending the git pull request.

You can take a look at saa7134-cards.c, for example. saa7134_tuner_setup()
has several examples. It starts with this one:

	switch (dev->board) {
	case SAA7134_BOARD_BMK_MPEX_NOTUNER:
	case SAA7134_BOARD_BMK_MPEX_TUNER:
		/* Checks if the device has a tuner at 0x60 addr
		   If the device doesn't have a tuner, TUNER_ABSENT
		   will be used at tuner_type, avoiding loading tuner
		   without needing it
		 */
		dev->i2c_client.addr = 0x60;
		board = (i2c_master_recv(&dev->i2c_client, &buf, 0) < 0)
			? SAA7134_BOARD_BMK_MPEX_NOTUNER
			: SAA7134_BOARD_BMK_MPEX_TUNER;

In this specific case, it is simply a probe for a device at address 0x60, but
there are more complex cases there, with eeprom reads and/or some random init
that happens before actually attaching some driver at the i2c address.
It is known to work, but it sounds like a hack.

Cheers,
Mauro

The cx18 driver has a function scope i2c_client for reading the EEPROM,
and there's a good reason for it.  We don't want to register the EEPROM
with the I2C system and make it visible to the rest of the system,
including i2c-dev and user-space tools.  To avoid EEPROM corruption,
it's better keep communication with EEPROMs to a very limited scope.

Andy

Note that it is possible to declare a read-only EEPROM, so that
user-space has no chance to write to it. If you really don't want
user-space to touch it, the best approach is i2c_new_dummy(), because
it will mark the slave address as busy, preventing i2c-dev from
accessing it (unless the user forces access - but then he/she is
obviously on his/her own...)

The i2c_client provided by i2c_new_dummy() can be unregistered at the
end of the function which needs it, or kept for the lifetime of the
driver, as you prefer.

This call to i2c_master_recv() could be replaced easily with
i2c_transfer(), which doesn't require an i2c_client.

Alternatively, you could delay the probe until you are ready to
instantiate the tuner device, and use i2c_new_device() when you're sure
it's there, and i2c_new_probed_device() when you aren't. This would be
nicer, but this also requires non-trivial changes.

For eeprom reads, I would definitely recommend getting a clean
i2c_client from i2c-core using i2c_new_dummy() or i2c_new_device().

For "random init", well, I guess each case is different, so I can't
make a general statement.

You're welcome.  If I hadn't done it, I was worried that lirc_zilog
would have been deleted.  I want to fix lirc_zilog properly, but haven't
had the time yet.

Keep in mind, that in this patch I had one objective: remove use of
struct i2c_adapter.id . 

I turned a blind-eye to other obvious problems, since fixing
lirc_zilog's problems looked like it was going to be like peeling an
onion.  Once you peel back one layer of problems, you find another one
underneath. ;)

Mauro removed the "done:" label in a commit just prior to this one.
Otherwise, yes, I would have used a "goto done:".

So much needs cleaning up in lirc_zilog, that I didn't agonize over this
particular item.

My intent is to ultimately have lirc_zilog handle only Tx, and let
ir-kbd-i2c handle Rx.  But that might not be possible without a mutex
shared between the two modules.  See the bit about -nak- s below...

Ack. You are "preaching to the choir". ;)

This was out of kernel code that has it's origins in reverse engineering
the Z8 chip's behavior, over 5 years ago:

http://www.blushingpenguin.com/mark/blog/?p=17

It has been updated only a few times since then, but that is why this
code still has old style I2C binding in it.  It's current condition is
also why it is still in staging.

Thank you for the insight and guidance on how to clean things up.

I'm not sure if it does.

Although some understanding I do have about the chip's program comes
from these captures from, I *assume*, the Windows driver talking to the
chip:

http://www.blushingpenguin.com/mark/lmilk/boot3
http://www.blushingpenguin.com/mark/lmilk/wdev3
http://www.blushingpenguin.com/mark/lmilk/thelot4

The Tx I2C address is 0x70 and the Rx I2C address is 0x71.

The host looks to be filling up part of a "page" in the Z8's memory 4
bytes at a time, starting at offsets 01, 05, 09, etc:

Offset in page--+   +--- Total number of bytes in page for this command

If you look at more of the dumps, it appears that accesses to I2C

IR.ir_lock might not be needed.  Although looking further I see this:

Which seems to indicate that actions taken on the Transmit side of the
chip can cause it to go unresponsive for both Tx and Rx.  The "goto
done;" statement that was in lirc_zilog skips the code that deals with
those -nak- for the HD PVR.

My bet is that register at 0x00 is a control register, and writing bit
7 (value 0x80) makes the chip busy enough that it can't process I2C
requests at the same time. The following naks would be until the
chip is operational again.

In fact, the "waiting" code in lirc_zilog.c:send_code() makes a lot of
sense, and I wouldn't skip it: if the device is busy, you don't want to
return immediately, otherwise a subsequent request will fail. The
failure documented for the HD PVR simply suggests that the wait loop
isn't long enough. It is 20 * 50 ms currently, i.e. 1 second total,
maybe this isn't sufficient. Have you ever tried a longer delay?

Correct.  Poking bit 7 of 0xE0:00 triggers the "send" for all the
bytes that were previously loaded into the device.  It puts the chip
into a busy state, doing an i2c clock stretch until it is available
again.  During that time it cannot see any i2c traffic, which is why
you are getting NAKs.
