[PATCH 0/4] RTC regression fixups

[John Stultz]

So Marcelo recently pointed out some regressions with the RTC rework
I did. This patchset tries to address those issues.

Thomas: "1/4 Prevent a division by zero" is urg and should go 
into 2.6.38 soon. The others need validation by Marcelo, but 
need to get in prior to 2.6.38 final (the earlier the better).

Marcelo: Mind giving this full patch set a go? It seems to resolve
the issues in my testing with the rtc-test driver.

[PATCH 1/4] RTC: Prevents a division by zero in kernel code.

[John Stultz]

From: Marcelo Roberto Jimenez <mroberto@cpti.cetuc.puc-rio.br>

This patch prevents a user space program from calling the RTC_IRQP_SET
ioctl with a negative value of frequency. Also, if this call is make
with a zero value of frequency, there would be a division by zero in the
kernel code.

[jstultz: Also initialize irq_freq to 1 to catch other divbyzero issues]

[PATCH 2/4] RTC: Fix rtc driver ioctl specific shortcutting

[John Stultz]

Some RTC drivers enable functionality directly via their ioctl method
instead of using the generic ioctl handling code. With the recent
virtualization of the RTC layer, its now important that the generic
layer always be used.

This patch moved the rtc driver ioctl method call to after the generic
ioctl processing is done. This allows hardware specific features or
ioctls to still function, while relying on the generic code for handling
everything else.

This patch on its own may more obviously break rtc drivers that
implement the alarm irq enablement via their ioctl method instead of
implementing the alarm_irq_enable method. Those drivers will be fixed
in a following patch. Additionaly, those drivers are already likely to
not be functioning reliably even without this patch.

[PATCH 3/4] RTC: Convert rtc drivers to use the alarm_irq_enable method

[John Stultz]

Some rtc drivers use the ioctl method instead of the alarm_irq_enable
method for enabling alarm interupts. With the new virtualized RTC
rework, its important for drivers to use the alarm_irq_enable instead.

This patch converts the drivers that use the AIE ioctl method to
use the alarm_irq_enable method. Other ioctl cmds are left untouched.

I have not been able to test or even compile all of these drivers.
Any help to make sure this change is correct would be appreciated!

[PATCH 4/4] RTC: Fix minor compile warning

[John Stultz]

Two rtc drivers return values from void functions. This patch
fixes that.

I guess the documentation should be updated, too. Currently it says:

Note that many of these ioctls need not actually be implemented by your
driver.  The common rtc-dev interface handles many of these nicely if your
driver returns ENOIOCTLCMD.  Some common examples:
...

That situation has changed after your patch.

I have tested the full set in ARM sa1100. Both the sa1100 RTC driver
and the rtc-test driver are working fine.

The only difference in user space behaviour is, as I have mentioned on
a previous message, that the rtc-test driver receives PIE events no
matter what, while the previous behaviour was to receive them by
echoing through the sys interface. But we must think whether this is
something worth keeping or not.

You have actually saved me some work fixing the alarm/update broken
behaviour on sa1100. Thank you very much. Most of the code in this rtc
driver is going to /dev/null, I'll send a patch later.

Regards,
Marcelo.

Thanks for pointing that out. Although the code and comments were not
consistent even before my rework:
ie:
	 * Drivers *SHOULD NOT* provide ioctl implementations
	 * for these requests.  Instead, provide methods to
	 * support the following code, so that the RTC's main
	 * features are accessible without using ioctls.

But clearly that wasn't the case. :)

I've got a few additional cleanup patches I'll be posting to once I'm
feeling confident the posted fix resolves the issues Marcelo was having.

If anyone else is seeing problems with these fixes,  please do let me
know.

thanks

Great to hear! Thanks for testing!

Yes. With the generic code emulating PIE mode interrupts with an
hrtimer, instead of having it be driver triggered, its not something the
driver can control. So dropping the PIE control in the rtc-test driver
seems like the right approach.

Alessandro: Does this sound ok to you?

Great. I'll add it to the follow on cleanup patches to remove dead code
that I'll be working on getting in my queue today.

Re: [PATCH 0/4] RTC regression fixups

[Marcelo Roberto Jimenez]

Hi John,

Currently, the RTC driver _must_ declare the read_alarm() callback,
even if it does nothing. But the code in drivers/rtc/interface.c does

	if (rtc->ops == NULL)
		err = -ENODEV;
	else if (!rtc->ops->read_alarm)
		err = -EINVAL;
	else {
		memset(alarm, 0, sizeof(struct rtc_wkalrm));
		alarm->enabled = rtc->aie_timer.enabled;
		alarm->time = rtc_ktime_to_tm(rtc->aie_timer.node.expires);
	}

The read_alarm() callback is not being performed.

Two questions:

1 - Should the callback be removed or should it be kept and called in
the else part?

2 - In case we are keeping it, should it be enforced like it is now,
or should it be kept optional? I'd rather have it optional, that means
less useless code in the drivers.

Regards,
Marcelo.

So this was recently added by d5553a556165535337ece8592f066407c62eec2e
to handle the cases where the driver didn't support alarm irqs, and the
error wasn't being properly propagated upwards.

> Two questions:

So, we probably should change the check to set_alarm or some other flag
to check if the hardware supports irqs, then remove the driver
read_alarm() function.

Yes. We want to minimize the unnecessary code. I'll take a shot at it
shortly here.

Also, to avoid duplicate work, please see my dev/rtc-cleanups branch
here:
http://git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=people/jstultz/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/dev/rtc-cleanups

I've got some patches that remove the dead irq_set_state, irq_set_freq
and update_irq_enable functions from the rtc drivers. It would be great
if you were able to give those patches a whirl to make sure I didn't
flub anything.

Ok. Just got a first pass on that done. Check out my dev/rtc-cleanups branch here:
http://git.linaro.org/gitweb?p=people/jstultz/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/dev/rtc-cleanups

So after cleaning up irq_set_state, irq_set_freq, update_irq_enable, and
read_alarm, we're looking at a nice reduction of code:

 54 files changed, 4 insertions(+), 2127 deletions(-)

Now, my one hesitation is for read_alarm. I'm not totally sure we won't
want to access that functionality from the generic layer at some point.
And I would hate to kill it and then realize we need it afterwards.

But it does nicely clean things up, so maybe we can decide on this by
the time 2.6.39 opens up.

Alessandro: Any thoughts?

thanks
