[PATCH] genirq: Warn about using IRQF_ONESHOT without a threaded handler

[PATCH] genirq: Warn about using IRQF_ONESHOT without a threaded handler

[Sebastian Andrzej Siewior]

IRQF_ONESHOT disables the interrupt source until after the threaded
handler completed its work. This is needed to allow the threaded handler
to run - otherwise the CPU will get back to the interrupt handler
because the interrupt source remains active and the threaded handler
will not able to do its work.

Specifying IRQF_ONESHOT without a threaded handler does not make sense.
It could be a leftover if the handler _was_ threaded and changed back to
primary and the flag was not removed. This can be problematic in the
`threadirqs' case because the handler is exempt from forced-threading.
This in turn can become a problem on a PREEMPT_RT system if the handler
attempts to acquire sleeping locks.

Warn about missing threaded handlers with the IRQF_ONESHOT flag.

There are a few drivers in tree which will trigger this warning such as
- arch/arm/mach-versatile/spc.c
- drivers/char/tpm/tpm_tis_spi_cr50.c
- drivers/edac/altera_edac.c
- drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-k1.c
- …

just to name a few. I *think* if IRQF_ONESHOT was on purpose and not
driven by copy/paste then the they wanted to use IRQF_NO_THREAD.

Hi Sebastian,

Thank you for the patch.

This patch would have saved us from trouble with the DW100 driver, so

I wonder if some people would object due to panic_on_warn, but I think
the issue will be caught early when testing kernel updates way before it
should hit users.

Should I pro-active send some patches to those users which I know do it
wrong? Or do we simply wait?

The warning appears because iio_triggered_buffer_setup_ext() (in 
drivers/iio/buffer/industrialio-triggered-buffer.c) is called with thread = NULL
during the probe of the iio device and calls iio_alloc_pollfunc()
(in drivers/iio/industrialio-trigger.c) with thread = NULL and type = IRQF_ONESHOT.

A simple fix could be this:

Urgh. Haven't seen those.

Looking at all the users of of *iio_triggered_buffer_setup*() the
primary handler is either NULL or iio_pollfunc_store_time(). 
So IRQF_ONESHOST should work all the time.

Then there is 
- drivers/iio/adc/vf610_adc.c 
- drivers/iio/common/hid-sensors/hid-sensor-trigger.c

They use iio_pollfunc_store_time() as primary and have no secondary.
This would trigger the warning but not having a secondary handler while
returning IRQF_WAKE_THREAD should create a warning of its own.
What did I miss?

Yes, this should call warn_no_thread() when the interrupt is triggered, but
I don't know if these sensors are actually functional on my laptop (I've never
tried to use them).

So I installed libiio-utils from debian and this is the output from
iio_info:

The iio:device* sensors all report 0 for the "offset value", so these
sensors are maybe non-fuctional.

I don't think you missed something, but the thread function being NULL here
could a problem on devices where these sensors actually work. (Or perhaps these sensors
need to be polled and the interrupts never trigger (?))

I only found one handler where the thread handler was NULL and it
returned WAKE_THREAD. So this _is_ broken.
Was it one of the driver I mentioned? If so I suggest to fix those
first. I have no idea how this should work…

hid-sensor doesn't need a bh handler. This patch can fix.

Or add it to industrialio-triggered-buffer.c as a common handler for
all caller with no bh, whatever Jonathan prefers.

I'm confused about how this works today.  Why do we store a timestamp
in the pollfunc structure that is never used by a bottom half?

If we have an actual top half that doesn't need a bottom half, then the
core code can easily insert a dummy handler, or register something sensible
in the first place.

Both the drivers that are called out in this discussion look to
be registering a triggered buffer, but are not using a trigger to fill
it. So they should not be doing that in the first place.

The right fix is either to not use those helpers at all and register
the kfifo directly (so none of the problem infrastructure is used) or
implement a proper trigger / buffer separation by having their interrupt
handlers as the trigger then moving the data reading into the pollfuncs.
At that point there would be a thread here to do that read and we'd
not have the bug.

Replacing with devm_iio_kfifo_buffer_setup_ext() breaks user space on
laptops as they expect current_trigger. This is not available for
INDIO_BUFFER_SOFTWARE. Using INDIO_BUFFER_TRIGGERED doesn't help
without poll function. Still breaks user space. This all works from
Linux 3.1x in this mode.

Sensors are powered off till user space writes to current_trigger which
results in call to .set_trigger_state() via
iio_trigger_attach_poll_func(). 

Here the hub is pushing data, not pulled to register a thread handler
and read.

So not sure what to add to thread handler other than dummy function.

Ah ok.  So I wouldn't have gone in this direction in the first
place. Obviously I missed it at the time ;(
Given where we are we can't remove it without breaking backwards compatibility.
I thought we'd long ago taught userspace to handle devices with untriggered
buffers but as ever with ABI we can never assume that's universal (and maybe
not even common!)  IIRC the reason untriggered buffers became common
was when device with hardware FIFOs came along and the trigger is still there
but never visible to software.  Which is kind of similar to the cases you
are referring to I think.

With hindsight I'm not sure why we'd do that rather than doing it in the
buffer enable, but we are stuck so that doesn't matter now.

Yes, let's do that but add a note to it saying that it should not
be copied into new drivers + can we throw a big warning print in the
dummy handler and stop proving a meaningless top half?

We have a few really annoying corner cases where a 'fake' current trigger
is used to switch between types of trigger. This is usually for wiring
up various in device signals rather than having software in the path.
Those would need a different rethink if we get a new one of those.
They aren't common.

Actually. Given neither handler make sense (top half or thread), can we
check for both being NULL and then just not register the interrupt at
all?  Then we just need a bit of documentation to say what that
'special' set of parameters means.

I think that just means not allocating + assigning the pollfunc but
I haven't chased through to make sure that works and I'd imagine the tear
down path will need to handle that differently.

Another nastier route that might work that I'm a bit less keen on is
register the buffer without trigger and then set the modes manually
to include a triggered one so current_trigger gets created.  If that
works then we'd want some very careful documentation + maybe helpers as that
feels a bit too much like we are taking advantage of an internal implementation
detail rather than something that will obviously work.

I think we also have in the list:

I noticed this while testing hid-sensor-rotation.

I saw that Jonathan mentioned some other more thorough approaches in
a later reply, but here is the "quick fix" I came up with.

Probably a better solution would be to allow NULL for both IRQ handlers
and just not request the IRQ in that case. I didn't have the time/energy
to dig into what it would take to do that yet.

So here it is to see if it is "good enough". The no_action function
isn't used outside of arch/ though (other than one irqchip driver)
so it makes me suspect that using it might be frowned upon.

Subject: [PATCH] iio: hid-sensors: trigger: use no_action for non-interrupt
 trigger

Use the no_action special function to indicate that we aren't actually
using the interrupt for the trigger registered in hid-sensor-trigger.c.

Due to recent changes in the irq subsystem, we are now getting a warning
about a threaded interrupt being registered with only a handler for the
top half.

I later found [1] that has an alternate fix, so no need to reply
