[Qemu-devel] arm_mptimer fixes

[Dmitry Osipenko]

Hello, this series fixes 3 arm_mptimer issues. All 3 patches were successfully
tested on ARM Cortex-A9 QEMU machine booting Linux kernel and behavior was
compared to real hw by running couple handcrafted mptimer tests.

arm_mptimer: Fix timer shutdown
arm_mptimer: Fix ONE-SHOT -> PERIODIC mode change
arm_mptimer: Respect IT bit state

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/3 v3] arm_mptimer: Fix timer shutdown

[Dmitry Osipenko]

Timer, running in periodic mode, can't be stopped or coming one-shot tick
won't be canceled because timer control code just doesn't handle timer
disabling. Fix it by deleting timer if enable bit isn't set.

Signed-off-by: Dmitry Osipenko <digetx@gmail.com>

v2: Avoid calling timer_del() if the timer was already disabled as per
    Peter Maydell suggestion.

v3: Do not change "reload the timer" logic as it is separate bug.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/3] arm_mptimer: Fix ONE-SHOT -> PERIODIC mode change

[Dmitry Osipenko]

Timer won't start periodic ticking if ONE-SHOT -> PERIODIC mode change happened
after one-shot tick was completed. Fix it by starting ticking only if timer was
disabled previously and isn't ticking right now.

Your do-nothing code paths are now inconsistent between the 0 and 1
cases. I think this if can be consolidated with:

if (value & 1) {
    if ((old & 1) && (tb->count != 0)) {
        break;
    }
    if (tb->control & 2) {
        ...
    }
    tb_reload();
} else if (old & 1) {
    timer_del();
}
break;

I think it's ok to squash patches 1 and 2. and just make a note in the
commit message of the multiple issues. It's hard to split this without
churning.

You have dropped the tb->count == 0 which looks like another bugfix
again. It looks like you are making sure the load value is loaded
regardless of timer run-state. If this is correct it just needs a note
in commit message.

Peter

You also need to trigger timerblock_update_irq on change of state for
the control bit itself. "case 8: /* Control.  */" in the _write
handler needs to call this fn.

Right, as it will mask/unmask interrupt line. Good catch, thanks.

Code, you are suggesting, is logically equal to my patch. Your variant looks 
cleaner, I'll switch to it. Thanks.

Sorry, I don't see where tb->count == 0 got dropped. I think you missed that 
timerblock_reload() checks for tb->count == 0.

To clarify:

Timer is stopped in two cases:
1) timer was shutdown; (old & 1) == 0, tb->count may be unequal to 0 (if timer 
was shutdown while it was ticking).
2) one-shot was completed; (old & 1) == 1, tb->count = 0

On timer enabling we don't need to do anything if either one-shot or periodic 
count is currently in fly, because timerblock_tick() would correctly handle mode 
change, otherwise we re-load tb->count in case of periodic mode or starting with 
whatever(left after periodic shutdown or after loading 'count' via load 
register) tb->count in case of one-shot.


BTW, timer pausing is not implemented and timer can be in two states only: 
running and stopped. This leads to opportunity to convert arm_mptimer to use 
ptimer, I'd like to do it after fixing current issues.

Well... yeah, it may worth squashing them. I'll do it.

Thanks for review.

[Qemu-devel] [v2] arm_mptimer fixes

[Dmitry Osipenko]

Hello, this is V2 of arm_mptimer patch series. Comments and suggestion from V1
has been addressed and the series was re-tested, including new test for IT bit
masking/unmasking.

[PATCH 1/2] arm_mptimer: Fix timer shutdown and mode change
[PATCH v2 2/2] arm_mptimer: Respect IT bit state

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/2] arm_mptimer: Fix timer shutdown and mode change

[Dmitry Osipenko]

Timer, running in periodic mode, can't be stopped or coming one-shot
tick won't be canceled because timer control code just doesn't handle
timer disabling. Fix it by deleting the timer if enable bit isn't set.

Timer won't start periodic ticking if ONE-SHOT -> PERIODIC mode change
happened after one-shot tick was completed. Fix it by starting ticking
only if the timer isn't ticking right now.

To avoid code churning, these two fixes are squashed in one commit.

Timer should fire interrupt only if IT(interrupt enable) bit state of control
register is enabled and timer should update IRQ status on IT bit change as it
would mask/unmask the interrupt line.

So when the timer was previously disabled (!(old & 1)) and the count
is non-zero this will cause a spurious auto-reload. I don't this
causes a bug today because the code as-is doesn't support arbitrary
count values, but it is a developer trap should the assumption that
tb->count equals either 0 or the reload value not hold true.

In general, this seems to now dup the code paths for control and
load/counter writes. Both now have a del and reload call for various
changes-of state. I had a go to see if I can consolidate. Turns out,
doing so should implement timer pause and resumption while fixing both
of your bugs, I'll send some patches.

Peter

This looks like an ad-hoc cover letter. Use git to generate patch series covers.

git format-patch HEAD~N --thread --cover-letter -vX

For N patches version X of the series.

Edit the 0000-cover-letter file with your cover mail contents and send
all the generated patches along with cover.

This series doesn't show up in the patch tracking system due to irregular cover.

tb->count can be either 0 or tb->load, so it shouldn't hurt to re-load it here.

Yeah, still there is some room for optimizations.

Well, I think it would be more reasonable to implement pausing with a conversion 
to ptimer use, since it should result in a cleaner and simpler code.

You don't need to itemize one-shot and periodic separately, disabling
the running timer just doesn't work universally.

Needs some grammar work. Try:

The running timer can't be stopped because timer control code just
doesn't handle disabling the timer. Fix it by deleting the timer if
the enable bit is cleared.

The timer won't start periodic ticking if a ONE-SHOT -> PERIODIC mode
change happens after a one-shot tick was completed. Fix it by
re-starting ticking if the timer isn't ticking right now.

[Dmitry Osipenko]

The running timer can't be stopped because timer control code just
doesn't handle disabling the timer. Fix it by deleting the timer if
the enable bit is cleared.

The timer won't start periodic ticking if a ONE-SHOT -> PERIODIC mode
change happens after a one-shot tick was completed. Fix it by
re-starting ticking if the timer isn't ticking right now.

The timer should fire interrupt only if IT(interrupt enable) bit state of
control register is enabled and the timer should update IRQ status on IT
bit change as it would mask/unmask the interrupt line.

Oh, no! Turned out, that is wrong. I wasn't testing that case properly on HW, V1 
is correct. Quote from ARM doc "If the timer interrupt is enabled, Interrupt ID 
29 is set as Pending in the Interrupt Distributor after the event flag is set."

If you need to update a patch, please resend the whole series,
not just one patch from it. (This is one of the things we talk
about on http://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute/SubmitAPatch -- the
v2/3/4 etc version number applies to a series, not a single
patch). Otherwise it gets very confusing because it's hard to
see if you're really looking at the most recent version of the
patchset, and as Peter C says, some patch handling tools don't
cope with the failure to thread a series properly.

I'll pick these up manually since there are only two patches
here, but for future submissions it would be really helpful
if you could fix this. We generally recommend using git
format-patch/send-email to put together the series and its
cover letter with the right references headers.

thanks

I made a quick glance at "SubmitAPatch" before posting. Now, reading more 
closely, I see that it all mentioned there and I feel sorry for that.

Probably, I should go and try those tools myself to have better sense of what I

No problem -- it's a pretty big page and it mentions a lot of
different things. (I keep meaning to try cleaning it up by
putting in different subsections for 'before sending your
initial patch', 'dealing with review', and so on.)

The particular one I find useful is Anthony Liguori's "patches"
tool: https://github.com/aliguori/patches
But it's really intended to help maintainers and submaintainers:
as somebody who's only submitting patches to the list you
probably don't have any need to use it.

As someone who doesn't send PULLs, I still find patches very useful.
It sanity checks your email sends. A while back, I drafted a paragraph
on how to use patches to verify receipt of your series if we want to
add it to "submit a patch".

Sounds useful. However, I think, it would make sense to do only if the whole 
preparing/sending process description is split-up in distinguished sections, 
like Peter proposed, otherwise it tends to bloat text and stay unnoticed.
