[PATCH v2 1/3] pwm: make it possible to apply pwm changes in atomic context

[PATCH v2 1/3] pwm: make it possible to apply pwm changes in atomic context

[Sean Young]

Some drivers require sleeping, for example if the pwm device is connected
over i2c. The pwm-ir-tx requires precise timing, and sleeping causes havoc
with the generated IR signal when sleeping occurs.

This patch makes it possible to use pwm when the driver does not sleep,
by introducing the pwm_can_sleep() function.

As I mentioned earlier, this really belongs in struct pwm_chip rather
than struct pwm_ops. I know that Uwe said this is unlikely to happen,
and that may be true, but at the same time it's not like I'm asking
much. Whether you put this in struct pwm_ops or struct pwm_chip is
about the same amount of code, and putting it into pwm_chip is much
more flexible, so it's really a no-brainer.

Happy to change this of course. I changed it and then changed it back after
Uwe's comment, I'll fix this in the next version.

One tiny advantage is that pwm_ops is static const while pwm_chip is
allocated per-pwm, so will need instructions for setting the value. Having
said that, the difference is tiny, it's a single bool.

Yeah, it's typically a single assignment, so from a code point of view
it should be pretty much the same. I suppose from an instruction level
point of view, yes, this might add a teeny-tiny bit of overhead.

On the other hand it lets us do interesting things like initialize
chip->atomic = !regmap_might_sleep() for those drivers that use regmap
and then not worry about it any longer.

Given that, I'm also wondering if we should try to keep the terminology
a bit more consistent. "Atomic" is somewhat overloaded because ->apply()
and ->get_state() are part of the "atomic" PWM API (in the sense that
applying changes are done as a single, atomic operation, rather than in
the sense of "non-sleeping" operation).

So pwm_apply_state_atomic() is then doubly atomic, which is a bit weird.
On the other hand it's a bit tedious to convert all existing users to
pwm_apply_state_might_sleep().

Perhaps as a compromise we can add pwm_apply_state_might_sleep() and
make pwm_apply_state() a (deprecated) alias for that, so that existing
drivers can be converted one by one.

Eventually we would then end up with both pwm_apply_state_might_sleep()
and pwm_apply_state_atomic(), which has the nice side-effect of these
being unambiguous.

That doesn't get rid of the ambiguity of that _atomic() suffix, but I
can probably live with that one. It's used for this same meaning in
other contexts and if we add a _might_sleep() variant it becomes clearer
how the two are different.

Anyway, the bottom line is that I'd prefer the "atomic" field to be
renamed "might_sleep". It'd also be nice to add the new _might_sleep()
variant since you're already changing all of this anyway. No need to
mass-convert all the drivers to the _might_sleep() variant yet, though,
since we can have a transitional alias for that.

Of course feel free to give it a shot if you feel like it.

To throw in my green for our bike shed: I'd pick

	pwm_apply_state_cansleep()

to match what gpio does (with gpiod_set_value_cansleep()). (Though I
have to admit that semantically Thierry's might_sleep is nicer as it
matches might_sleep().)

If we don't want to have an explicit indicator for the atomic/fast
variant (again similar to the gpio framework), maybe we can drop
"_state" which I think is somehow redundant and go for:

	pwm_apply (fast)
	pwm_apply_cansleep (sleeping)
	pwm_apply_state (compat alias for pwm_apply_cansleep())

(maybe replace cansleep with might_sleep). Similar for pwm_get_state()
we could use the opportunity and make

	pwm_get()

actually call ->get_state() and introduce

	pwm_get_lastapplied()

with the semantic of todays pwm_get_state(). Do we need a
pwm_get_cansleep/might_sleep()?

Best regards
Uwe

I have to agree here. "can" is shorter and clearer than "might", since
"can" expresses capability. Having said that the mixture of nomenclature is
not great, so there is very little between them.

This is very nice. :) There are callsites in 15 files, might as well rename
it and do away with pwm_apply_state()

Not all drivers implement .get_state(), how would we handle those?

does it mean you checked all possible SoCs (BCM2835, BCM2836, BCM2837,
BCM2711, BCM2712) for this change?

Is it impossible that the real clock can never be influenced by turbo
mode like SPI?

Assuming the clock can change, which I would, then a clock notifier seems 
appropriate. See [1] for an example.

i remember a similiar approach for the CPU frequency for the RPi. At end
the we decided to let the firmware handle it and don't use clock
notifier, see [2] and the related links for more background. The fact
that the VideoCore has the real control makes it hard.

I don't want to say that's impossible.

I'm not a fan. If the clock changes, the output also changes. With a
clock notifier you can soften the issue and reconfigure to something
similar as the original wave form, but a glitch happens for sure.

I already toyed with the thought to add clk_rate_exclusive_get() to all
PWM drivers, but didn't come around it yet.

Best regards
Uwe

Right, but without notifier, everything rate related after the change 
will be wrong

So we agree clk_rate_exclusive_get() is the way to go?! It's simple, no
need for a notifier and no glitches.

what about 'struct completion tx_done'?

With my c++ developer hat on, I think either 'u32' or 'unsigned int' is 
more proper type for carrier and duty_cycle. Both s_tx_duty_cycle and 
s_tx_carrier are declared with second parameter of type u32, maybe 
that's what have to be used all over the place if you are to change from 
'unsigned int'. But better leave as it is, pwm_set_relative_duty_cycle() 
takes 'unsigned int' anyway.

OTOH, it is (*tx_ir)(struct rc_dev *dev, unsigned *txbuf, unsigned n), 
so maybe you should use 'unsigned' or 'unsigned int' for those.

I know at the end all those will be compiled to same type, but still :)

Agreed, that's much better.

I much prefer the rust way of u64/u32/u16/u8/usize and simply no int/short/long
types at all. int is useful when your compiler needs to work on weird
architectures with non-power-of-two register sizes like the pdp-9 (18 bits
anyone?), but on contemporary cpus there is really no need for int: int is
always a 32 bit value.

So I'm all for banishing int in every form, but for now the kernel uses
unsigned int and u32 interchangably, so it's hard to be consistent with this.

Maybe it's time for tx_ir to be defined with u32 types and do away with
this madness.

However, as it stands I agree with your points. I guess it's best to be
consistent with the apis this driver implements/uses.
