PM / core: fix deferred probe breaking suspend resume order

2018-04-24T10:18:25Z

When bridge and its endpoint is enumerated the devices are added to the dpm list. Afterward, the bridge defers probe when IOMMU is not ready. This causes the bridge to be moved to the end of the dpm list when deferred probe kicks in. The order of the dpm list for bridge and endpoint is reversed. Add reordering code to move the bridge and its children and consumers to the end of the pm list so the order for suspend and resume is not altered. The code also move device and its children and consumers to the tail of device_kset list if it is registered.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55Z

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

driver core: Functional dependencies tracking support

2016-10-31T17:36:20Z

Currently, there is a problem with taking functional dependencies between devices into account. What I mean by a "functional dependency" is when the driver of device B needs device A to be functional and (generally) its driver to be present in order to work properly. This has certain consequences for power management (suspend/resume and runtime PM ordering) and shutdown ordering of these devices. In general, it also implies that the driver of A needs to be working for B to be probed successfully and it cannot be unbound from the device before the B's driver. Support for representing those functional dependencies between devices is added here to allow the driver core to track them and act on them in certain cases where applicable. The argument for doing that in the driver core is that there are quite a few distinct use cases involving device dependencies, they are relatively hard to get right in a driver (if one wants to address all of them properly) and it only gets worse if multiplied by the number of drivers potentially needing to do it. Morever, at least one case (asynchronous system suspend/resume) cannot be handled in a single driver at all, because it requires the driver of A to wait for B to suspend (during system suspend) and the driver of B to wait for A to resume (during system resume). For this reason, represent dependencies between devices as "links", with the help of struct device_link objects each containing pointers to the "linked" devices, a list node for each of them, status information, flags, and an RCU head for synchronization. Also add two new list heads, representing the lists of links to the devices that depend on the given one (consumers) and to the devices depended on by it (suppliers), and a "driver presence status" field (needed for figuring out initial states of device links) to struct device. The entire data structure consisting of all of the lists of link objects for all devices is protected by a mutex (for link object addition/removal and for list walks during device driver probing and removal) and by SRCU (for list walking in other case that will be introduced by subsequent change sets). If CONFIG_SRCU is not selected, however, an rwsem is used for protecting the entire data structure. In addition, each link object has an internal status field whose value reflects whether or not drivers are bound to the devices pointed to by the link or probing/removal of their drivers is in progress etc. That field is only modified under the device links mutex, but it may be read outside of it in some cases (introduced by subsequent change sets), so modifications of it are annotated with WRITE_ONCE(). New links are added by calling device_link_add() which takes three arguments: pointers to the devices in question and flags. In particular, if DL_FLAG_STATELESS is set in the flags, the link status is not to be taken into account for this link and the driver core will not manage it. In turn, if DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE is set in the flags, the driver core will remove the link automatically when the consumer device driver unbinds from it. One of the actions carried out by device_link_add() is to reorder the lists used for device shutdown and system suspend/resume to put the consumer device along with all of its children and all of its consumers (and so on, recursively) to the ends of those lists in order to ensure the right ordering between all of the supplier and consumer devices. For this reason, it is not possible to create a link between two devices if the would-be supplier device already depends on the would-be consumer device as either a direct descendant of it or a consumer of one of its direct descendants or one of its consumers and so on. There are two types of link objects, persistent and non-persistent. The persistent ones stay around until one of the target devices is deleted, while the non-persistent ones are removed automatically when the consumer driver unbinds from its device (ie. they are assumed to be valid only as long as the consumer device has a driver bound to it). Persistent links are created by default and non-persistent links are created when the DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE flag is passed to device_link_add(). Both persistent and non-persistent device links can be deleted with an explicit call to device_link_del(). Links created without the DL_FLAG_STATELESS flag set are managed by the driver core using a simple state machine. There are 5 states each link can be in: DORMANT (unused), AVAILABLE (the supplier driver is present and functional), CONSUMER_PROBE (the consumer driver is probing), ACTIVE (both supplier and consumer drivers are present and functional), and SUPPLIER_UNBIND (the supplier driver is unbinding). The driver core updates the link state automatically depending on what happens to the linked devices and for each link state specific actions are taken in addition to that. For example, if the supplier driver unbinds from its device, the driver core will also unbind the drivers of all of its consumers automatically under the assumption that they cannot function properly without the supplier. Analogously, the driver core will only allow the consumer driver to bind to its device if the supplier driver is present and functional (ie. the link is in the AVAILABLE state). If that's not the case, it will rely on the existing deferred probing mechanism to wait for the supplier driver to become available. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

PM / sleep: prohibit devices probing during suspend/hibernation

2015-11-30T13:47:22Z

It is unsafe [1] if probing of devices will happen during suspend or hibernation and system behavior will be unpredictable in this case. So, let's prohibit device's probing in dpm_prepare() and defer their probing instead. The normal behavior will be restored in dpm_complete(). This patch introduces new DD core APIs: device_block_probing() It will disable probing of devices and defer their probes instead. device_unblock_probing() It will restore normal behavior and trigger re-probing of deferred devices.

driver core: correct device's shutdown order

2015-08-06T00:07:19Z

Now device's shutdown sequence is performed in reverse order of their registration in devices_kset list and this sequence corresponds to the reverse device's creation order. So, devices_kset data tracks "parent<-child" device's dependencies only. Unfortunately, that's not enough and causes problems in case of implementing board's specific shutdown procedures. For example [1]: "DRA7XX_evm uses PCF8575 and one of the PCF output lines feeds to MMC/SD and this line should be driven high in order for the MMC/SD to be detected. This line is modelled as regulator and the hsmmc driver takes care of enabling and disabling it. In the case of 'reboot', during shutdown path as part of it's cleanup process the hsmmc driver disables this regulator. This makes MMC boot not functional." To handle this issue the .shutdown() callback could be implemented for PCF8575 device where corresponding GPIO pins will be configured to states, required for correct warm/cold reset. This can be achieved only when all .shutdown() callbacks have been called already for all PCF8575's consumers. But devices_kset is not filled correctly now: devices_kset: Device61 4e000000.dmm devices_kset: Device62 48070000.i2c devices_kset: Device63 48072000.i2c devices_kset: Device64 48060000.i2c devices_kset: Device65 4809c000.mmc ... devices_kset: Device102 fixedregulator-sd ... devices_kset: Device181 0-0020 // PCF8575 devices_kset: Device182 gpiochip496 devices_kset: Device183 0-0021 // PCF8575 devices_kset: Device184 gpiochip480 As can be seen from above .shutdown() callback for PCF8575 will be called before its consumers, which, in turn means, that any changes of PCF8575 GPIO's pins will be or unsafe or overwritten later by GPIO's consumers. The problem can be solved if devices_kset list will be filled not only according device creation order, but also according device's probing order to track "supplier<-consumer" dependencies also. Hence, as a fix, lets add devices_kset_move_last(), devices_kset_move_before(), devices_kset_move_after() and call them from device_move() and also add call of devices_kset_move_last() in really_probe(). After this change all entries in devices_kset will be sorted according to device's creation ("parent<-child") and probing ("supplier<-consumer") order. devices_kset after: devices_kset: Device121 48070000.i2c devices_kset: Device122 i2c-0 ... devices_kset: Device147 regulator.24 devices_kset: Device148 0-0020 devices_kset: Device149 gpiochip496 devices_kset: Device150 0-0021 devices_kset: Device151 gpiochip480 devices_kset: Device152 0-0019 ... devices_kset: Device372 fixedregulator-sd devices_kset: Device373 regulator.29 devices_kset: Device374 4809c000.mmc devices_kset: Device375 mmc0 [1] http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mmc/msg29825.html Cc: Sekhar Nori Signed-off-by: Grygorii Strashko Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
