[PATCH 00/21] can: netlink: preparation before introduction of CAN XL step 2/2

[PATCH 00/21] can: netlink: preparation before introduction of CAN XL step 2/2

[Vincent Mailhol]

In November last year, I sent an RFC to introduce CAN XL [1]. That
RFC, despite positive feedback, was put on hold due to some unanswered
question concerning the PWM encoding [2].

While stuck, some small preparation work was done in parallel in [3]
by refactoring the struct can_priv and doing some trivial clean-up and
renaming. [3] received zero feedback but was eventually merged after
splitting it in smaller parts and resending it.

Finally, in July this year, we clarified the remaining mysteries about
PWM calculation, thus unlocking the series. Summer being a bit busy
because of some personal matters brings us to now.

After doing all the refactoring and adding all the CAN XL features,
the final result is roughly 30 patches, probably too much for a single
series. So I am splitting it in two:

  - preparation (this series)
  - CAN XL

And so, this series continues and finishes the preparation work done
in [3]. It contains all the refactoring needed to smoothly introduce
CAN XL. The goal is to:

  - split the function in smaller pieces: CAN XL will introduce a fair
    amount of code. And some functions which are already fairly long
    (86 lines for can_validate(), 216 lines for can_changelink())
    would grow to disproportionate sizes if the CAN XL logic were to
    be inlined in those functions.

  - repurpose the existing code to handle both CAN FD and CAN XL: a
    huge part of CAN XL simply reuses the CAN FD logic. All the
    existing CAN FD logic is made more generic to handle both CAN FD
    and XL.

In more details:

  - Patch #1 moves struct data_bittiming_params from dev.h to
    bittiming.h and patch #2 makes can_get_relative_tdco() FD agnostic
    before also moving it to bittiming.h.

  - Patch #3 adds some comments to netlink.h tagging which IFLA
    symbols are FD specific.

  - Patch #4 to #7 are refactoring can_validate() and
    can_validate_bittiming().

  - Patch #8 to #12 are refactoring can_changelink() and
    can_tdc_changelink().

  - Patch #13 and #14 are refactoring can_get_size() and
    can_tdc_get_size().

  - Patch #15 to #18 are refactoring can_fill_info() and
    can_tdc_fill_info().

  - Patch #19 makes can_calc_tdco() FD agnostic.

  - Patch #20 adds can_get_ctrlmode_str() which converts control mode
    flags into strings. This is done in preparation of patch #20.

  - Patch #21 is the final patch and improves the user experience by
    providing detailed error messages whenever invalid parameters are
    provided. All those error messages came into handy when debugging
    the upcoming CAN XL patches.

Aside from the last patch, the other changes do not impact any of the
existing functionalities.

The follow up series which introduces CAN XL is nearly completed but
will be sent only once this one is approved: one thing at a time, I do
not want to overwhelm people (including myself).

[PATCH 01/21] can: dev: move struct data_bittiming_params to linux/can/bittiming.h

[Vincent Mailhol]

In commit b803c4a4f788 ("can: dev: add struct data_bittiming_params to
group FD parameters"), struct data_bittiming_params was put into
linux/can/dev.h.

This structure being a collection of bittiming parameters, on second
thought, bittiming.h is actually a better location. This way, users of
struct data_bittiming_params will not have to forcefully include
linux/can/dev.h thus removing some complexity and reducing the risk of
circular dependencies in headers.

Move struct data_bittiming_params from linux/can/dev.h to
linux/can/bittiming.h.

[PATCH 02/21] can: dev: make can_get_relative_tdco() FD agnostic and move it to bittiming.h

[Vincent Mailhol]

can_get_relative_tdco() needs to access can_priv->fd making it
specific to CAN FD. Change the function parameter from struct can_priv
to struct data_bittiming_params. This way, the function becomes CAN FD
agnostic and can be reused later on for the CAN XL TDC.

Now that we dropped the dependency on struct can_priv, also move
can_get_relative_tdco() back to bittiming.h where it was meant to
belong to.

Changelog:

  RFC -> v1:

   - Just pass the IFLA index instead of passing each argument
     individually. Instead, derive these as local variables depending
     on whethe the IFLA index is IFLA_CAN_TDC or IFLA_CAN_XL_TDC.

[PATCH 03/21] can: netlink: document which symbols are FD specific

[Vincent Mailhol]

The CAN XL netlink interface will also have data bitrate and TDC
parameters. The current FD parameters do not have a prefix in their
names to differentiate them.

Because the netlink interface is part of the UAPI, it is unfortunately
not feasible to rename the existing symbols to add an FD_ prefix. The
best alternative is to add a comment for each of the symbols to notify
the reader of which parts are CAN FD specific.

While at it, fix a typo: transiver -> transceiver.

[PATCH 04/21] can: netlink: refactor can_validate_bittiming()

[Vincent Mailhol]

Whenever can_validate_bittiming() is called, it is always preceded by
some boilerplate code which was copy pasted all over the place. Move
that repeated code directly inside can_validate_bittiming().

Finally, the mempcy() is not needed. Just use the pointer returned by
nla_data() as-is.

[PATCH 06/21] can: netlink: add can_validate_databittiming()

[Vincent Mailhol]

Factorise the databittiming validation out of can_validate() and move
it in the new add can_validate_databittiming() function. This is a
preparation patch for the introduction of CAN XL as this databittiming
validation will be reused later on.

OK. I will silence it in v2, but I don't think this is anyhow problematic.

That's it. This if condition is always true at the moment because all the
callers specify ifla_can_data_bittiming as IFLA_CAN_DATA_BITTIMING. But I do not
want to remove the else branch because is serves to show to the reader what is
coming up next and help to understand the refactor logic.

The WARN_ON(1) was to point out that the else branch should never be reached.

I will change this to:

	return -EOPNOTSUPP; /* Place holder for CAN XL */

in v2. This will serve the same purpose as the current WARN_ON(1) but will
suppress the warning.

I will do the exact same on patches 11/21 and 18/21 on which the kernel test
robot also sent a similar report.

[PATCH 07/21] can: netlink: remove comment in can_validate()

[Vincent Mailhol]

The comment in can_validate() is just paraphrasing the code. When
adding CAN XL, updating this comment would add some overhead work for
no clear benefit.

Now that the function has been refactored and split into smaller
pieces, let the code speak for itself. Remove the comment.

I generally see that the code introduced by yourself has nearly no comments.

E.g. if you look at the [PATCH 12/21] can: netlink: add 
can_ctrlmode_changelink() the comments introduced by myself document the 
different steps as we had problems with the complexity there and it was 
hard to review either.

I would like to motivate you to generally add more comments.

When people (like me) look into that code that they haven't written 
themselves and there is not even a hint of "what's the idea of what we 
are doing here" then the code is hard to follow and to review.

We definitely don't need a full blown documentation on top of each 
function. But I like this comment you want to remove here and I would 
like to have more of it, so that people get an impression what they will 
see in the following code.

Best regards,
Oliver

I tend to disagree. While it is true that I added no C-style comment blocks, I
added a ton of error messages which I would argue are documentation.

For example, this code:

	/* If one of the CAN_CTRLMODE_TDC_* flag is set then TDC
	 * must be set and vice-versa
	 */
	if ((tdc_auto || tdc_manual) != !!data_tdc)
		return -EOPNOTSUPP;

was transformed into:

	/* If one of the CAN_CTRLMODE_TDC_* flag is set then TDC
	 * must be set and vice-versa
	 */
	if ((tdc_auto || tdc_manual) && !data_tdc) {
		NL_SET_ERR_MSG(extack, "TDC parameters are missing");
		return -EOPNOTSUPP;
	}
	if (!(tdc_auto || tdc_manual) && data_tdc) {
		NL_SET_ERR_MSG(extack, "TDC mode (auto or manual) is missing");
		return -EOPNOTSUPP;
	}

Which I think is a huge improvement on the documentation. And this has real
value because the user do not have to look at the source code anymore to
understand why an

  ip link set can ...

returned an error.

Those comments are still here.

> I would like to motivate you to generally add more comments.
This is a refactoring series. I kept all existing comments except of one and
then added a more comments in the form of error message. I am not adding code,
just moving it around, so I do not really get why I should be adding even more
comments to the existing code.

Is this an issue in my code refactoring or an issue with the existing code?

No need to defend yourself with specific references or even feel 
personally attacked.

My overall feeling is that you spend an excellent effort in commit 
messages but this information is then omitted in code comments.

As I've already written "I would like to motivate you to generally add 
more comments.". And this can also happen when refactoring things where 
new functions are created which reduces the context to the original code 
section.

Oliver

Thanks. I was not sure how to read your previous message.

My current mind set is that I want to do more ironing on the upcoming XL
patches. Because I do the documentation last once everything is working well,
this is still on my TODO list.

And when this is done, there is also

  Documentation/networking/can.rst

which need an update. At the moment, I am rather happy by just keeping the
existing documentation in this refactor series and want to put the extra effort
on the new stuff. Thinking of the upcoming work and of my current bandwidth, I
am really not in the mood into injecting more time in the refactor.

That said, on a second thought, I finally decided to keep the comment which I
previously wanted to remove. I will just move it from can_validate() to
can_validate_databittiming() in patch 06/21 "can: netlink: add
can_validate_databittiming()".


Yours sincerely,
Vincent Mailhol

[PATCH 08/21] can: netlink: refactor CAN_CTRLMODE_TDC_{AUTO,MANUAL} flag reset logic

[Vincent Mailhol]

CAN_CTRLMODE_TDC_AUTO and CAN_CTRLMODE_TDC_MANUAL are mutually
exclusive. This means that whenever the user switches from auto to
manual mode (or vice versa), the other flag which was set previously
needs to be cleared.

Currently, this is handled with a masking operation. It can be done in
a simpler manner by clearing any of the previous TDC flags before
copying netlink attributes. The code becomes easier to understand and
will make it easier to add the new upcoming CAN XL flags which will
have a similar reset logic as the current TDC flags.

[PATCH 09/21] can: netlink: remove useless check in can_tdc_changelink()

[Vincent Mailhol]

can_tdc_changelink() return -EOPNOTSUPP under this condition:

  !tdc_const || !can_fd_tdc_is_enabled(priv)

But this function is only called if the data[IFLA_CAN_TDC] parameters
are provided. At this point, can_validate_tdc() already checked that
either of the tdc auto or tdc manual control modes were provided, that
is to say, can_fd_tdc_is_enabled(priv) must be true.

Because the right hand operand of this condition is always true,
remove it.

[PATCH 10/21] can: netlink: make can_tdc_changelink() FD agnostic

[Vincent Mailhol]

can_tdc_changelink() needs to access can_priv->fd making it
specific to CAN FD. Change the function parameter from struct can_priv
to struct data_bittiming_params. This way, the function becomes CAN FD
agnostic and can be reused later on for the CAN XL TDC.

[PATCH 11/21] can: netlink: add can_dtb_changelink()

[Vincent Mailhol]

Factorise the databittiming parsing out of can_changelink() and move
it in the new can_dtb_changelink() function. This is a preparation
patch for the introduction of CAN XL because the databittiming
changelink logic will be reused later on.

Changelog:

RFC -> v1:

  - In the RFC, can_dbt_changelink() required 8 parameters. Instead,
    just pass a boolean and then get the FD/XL specific parameters in
    an "if (fd) {} else {}" conditional.

[PATCH 12/21] can: netlink: add can_ctrlmode_changelink()

[Vincent Mailhol]

Split the control mode change link logic into a new function:
can_ctrlmode_changelink(). The purpose is to increase code readability
by preventing can_changelink() from becoming too big.

[PATCH 13/21] can: netlink: make can_tdc_get_size() FD agnostic

[Vincent Mailhol]

can_tdc_get_size() depends on some variables which are specific to CAN
FD. Move these to the function parameters list so that, later on, this
function can be reused for the CAN XL TDC.

[PATCH 18/21] can: netlink: make can_tdc_fill_info() FD agnostic

[Vincent Mailhol]

can_tdc_fill_info() depends on some variables which are specific to CAN
FD. Move these to the function parameters list so that, later on, this
function can be reused for the CAN XL TDC.

Signed-off-by: Vincent Mailhol <mailhol@kernel.org>

Changelog:

  RFC -> v1:

   - Just pass the IFLA index instead of passing each argument
     individually. Instead, derive these as local variables depending
     on whethe the IFLA index is IFLA_CAN_TDC or IFLA_CAN_XL_TDC.

[PATCH 19/21] can: calc_bittiming: make can_calc_tdco() FD agnostic

[Vincent Mailhol]

can_calc_tdco() uses the CAN_CTRLMODE_FD_TDC_MASK and
CAN_CTRLMODE_TDC_AUTO macros making it specific to CAN FD. Add the tdc
mask to the function parameter list. The value of the tdc auto flag
can then be derived from that mask and stored in a local variable.
This way, the function becomes CAN FD agnostic and can be reused later
on for the CAN XL TDC.

Signed-off-by: Vincent Mailhol <mailhol@kernel.org>

Changelog:

  RFC -> v1:

   - new patch. I overlooked this in the RFC and the CAN XL's TDC was
     broken because of that.

[PATCH 20/21] can: dev: add can_get_ctrlmode_str()

[Vincent Mailhol]

In an effort to give more human readable messages when errors occur
because of conflicting options, it can be useful to convert the CAN
control mode flags into text.

Add a function which converts the first set CAN control mode into a
human readable string. The reason to only convert the first one is to
simplify edge cases: imagine that there are several invalid control
modes, we would just return the first invalid one to the user, thus
not having to handle complex string concatenation. The user can then
solve the first problem, call the netlink interface again and see the
next issue.

People who wish to enumerate all the control modes can still do so by,
for example, using this new function in a for_each_set_bit() loop.

[PATCH 21/21] can: netlink: add userland error messages

[Vincent Mailhol]

Use NL_SET_ERR_MSG() and NL_SET_ERR_MSG_FMT() to return meaningful
error messages to the userland whenever a -EOPNOTSUPP error is
returned due to a failed validation of the CAN netlink arguments.

If you want a preview of the full CAN XL, you can have a look at my work in
progress here:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mailhol/linux.git/
log/?h=b4/canxl-netlink
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mailhol/iproute2-next.git/log/?h=canxl-netlink

The kernel part is nearly completed, but I am still playing some whack-a-mole to
find potential gaps in the configuration validation. I also need to rewrite or
fine tune the commit description.

The iproute2 part is still under development. It has the PWM interface but I
have not added all the control modes yet.

Regardless, the two links above are just an FYI. Beware that there will be some
random force pushes without any notice. You can play with it but it is
*not* opened for comments until the preparation series is approved.

Looking forward for your comments on this CAN XL preparation series, it took me
a fair amount of effort :)


Yours sincerely,
Vincent Mailhol

Thanks Vincent!

The repos are very helpful.

With "missing" control modes you refer to CAN_CTRLMODE_XL_ERR_SIGNAL, 
CAN_CTRLMODE_XL_RRS and CAN_CTRLMODE_RESTRICTED, right?

Oliver

Yes, I only added the CAN_CTRLMODE_XL_TMS so far in iproute2. The kernel has all
of the four flags (but because I did not finish testing, I highly suspect that
there are still some bugs somewhere).

Concerning the CAN_CTRLMODE_XL_RRS, I am not sure if that one is needed. I still
have it in my WIP series but I am recently considering to remove it. The reason
is that when reading ISO 11898-1 having RRS configurable looks mandatory to me.

In the logical Link control (LLC) this RRS bit is named FTYP (for Frame Type).
For example, CiA only mentions FTYP in their CAN XL knowledge page:

  https://www.can-cia.org/can-knowledge/can-xl

Contrarily to CAN FD's RRS which is indeed specified as being dominant and which
is just ignored in the LLC, the CAN XL FTYP/RRS is part of the LLC interface and
is meant to be configurable.

Nothing in the standard tells us that this should be a dominant bit. I think
your intention was to add CAN_CTRLMODE_XL_RRS as a quirk for the devices which
expose this flag. But as far as I can see, it seems that a device which does not
expose it is just not compliant.

If some day a device which can not set the FTYP/RRS flag appears in the wild,
then maybe we can add a flag which would specify that RRS is not configurable
(opposite logic as what you suggested). But as long as such a device do not
exist, it is better to add nothing.


Yours sincerely,
Vincent Mailhol

I double checked my XCANB CAN XL controller spec and indeed the RRS bit 
is part of every RX/TX FIFO element and the figures see it as 
configurable element too.

Let's see if we will find CAN XL IP cores where the engineers have a 
different view on this. I currently have a discussion on this RRS bit 
with the Vector support because the RRS bit is not visible in the 
CANalyser 19 GUI.

ACK. After this discussion I would also vote to omit my glorious patch 
which added the CAN_CTRLMODE_XL_RRS flag. Let's see if we find a CAN XL 
controller that does not support the variable RRS bit in reading and 
writing. And if it shows up we can add this flag to handle it (similar 
to the fd-non-iso feature).

Oliver

OK. Good that we reached out to the same conclusion :)

Because I already implemented all the logic, I will save the current RRS patch
somewhere in case we need to resurrect it some days.
