Hi all,

These patches enable calling (and finishing) a driver's probe function
without powering on the respective device on busses where the practice is
to power on the device for probe. While it generally is a driver's job to
check the that the device is there, there are cases where it might be
undesirable. (In this case it stems from a combination of hardware design
and user expectations; see below.) The downside with this change is that
if there is something wrong with the device, it will only be found at the
time the device is used. In this case (the camera sensors + EEPROM in a
sensor) I don't see any tangible harm from that though.

An indication both from the driver and the firmware is required to allow
the device's power state to remain off during probe (see the first patch).


The use case is such that there is a privacy LED next to an integrated
user-facing laptop camera, and this LED is there to signal the user that
the camera is recording a video or capturing images. That LED also happens
to be wired to one of the power supplies of the camera, so whenever you
power on the camera, the LED will be lit, whether images are captured from
the camera --- or not. There's no way to implement this differently
without additional software control (allowing of which is itself a
hardware design decision) on most CSI-2-connected camera sensors as they
simply have no pin to signal the camera streaming state.

This is also what happens during driver probe: the camera will be powered
on by the I²C subsystem calling dev_pm_domain_attach() and the device is
already powered on when the driver's own probe function is called. To the
user this visible during the boot process as a blink of the privacy LED,
suggesting that the camera is recording without the user having used an
application to do that. From the end user's point of view the behaviour is
not expected and for someone unfamiliar with internal workings of a
computer surely seems quite suspicious --- even if images are not being
actually captured.

I've tested these on linux-next master. They also apply to Wolfram's
i2c/for-next branch, there's a patch that affects the I²C core changes
here (see below). The patches apart from that apply to Bartosz's
at24/for-next as well as Mauro's linux-media master branch.

since v6 <URL:https://lore.kernel.org/linux-acpi/20200826115432.6103-1-sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com/>:

- Use u32 for the flags field in struct i2c_driver.

- Use acpi_dev_get_property to read the allow-low-power-probe property.

since v5 <URL:https://lore.kernel.org/linux-acpi/20200810142747.12400-1-sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com/>:

- Identify sensors when they're first powered on. In previous versions, if
  this wasn't in probe, it was not done at all.

- Return allow_low_power_probe() only for ACPI devices, i.e. OF systems
  are not affected by these changes.

- Document that I2C_DRV_FL_ALLOW_LOW_POWER_PROBE flag only applies to ACPI
  drivers.

- Fix extra regulator_disable in at24 driver's remove function when the
  device was already in low power state.

since v4 <URL:https://lore.kernel.org/linux-acpi/20200121134157.20396-1-sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com/>:

- Rename "probe-low-power" property as "allow-low-power-probe". This is
  taken into account in function and file naming, too.

- Turn probe_low_power field in struct i2c_driver into flags field.

- Rebase on Wolfram's i2c/for-next branch that contains the removal of the
  support for disabling I²C core IRQ mappings (commit
  0c2a34937f7e4c4776bb261114c475392da2355c).

- Change wording for "allow-low-power-probe" property in ACPI
  documentation.

since v3 <URL:https://lore.kernel.org/linux-acpi/20200109154529.19484-1-sakari.ailus@linux.intel.com/T/#t>:

- Rework the 2nd patch based on Rafael's comments

	- Rework description of the ACPI low power state helper function,
	  according to Rafael's text.

	- Rename and rework the same function as
	  acpi_dev_state_low_power().

	- Reflect the changes in commit message as well.

- Added a patch to document the probe-low-power _DSD property.

since v2 <URL:https://patchwork.kernel.org/cover/11114255/>:

- Remove extra CONFIG_PM ifdefs; these are not needed.

- Move the checks for power state hints from drivers/base/dd.c to
  drivers/i2c/i2c-base-core.c; these are I²C devices anyway.

- Move the probe_low_power field from struct device_driver to struct
  i2c_driver.

since v1:

- Rename probe_powered_off struct device field as probe_low_power and
  reflect the similar naming to the patches overall.

- Work with CONFIG_PM disabled, too.

Enable drivers to tell ACPI that there's no need to power on a device for
probe. Drivers should still perform this by themselves if there's a need
to. In some cases powering on the device during probe is undesirable, and
this change enables a driver to choose what fits best for it.

Add a field called "flags" into struct i2c_driver for driver flags, and a
flag I2C_DRV_FL_ALLOW_LOW_POWER_PROBE to tell a driver supports probe in
low power state.

Add a convenience function to tell whether a device is in low power state,
primarily for use in drivers' probe or remove functions on busses where
the custom is to power on the device for the duration of both.

Returns false on non-ACPI systems.

Tell ACPI device PM code that the driver supports the device being in a
low power state when the driver's probe function is entered.

Also do identification on the first access of the device, whether in probe
or when starting streaming.

In certain use cases (where the chip is part of a camera module, and the
camera module is wired together with a camera privacy LED), powering on
the device during probe is undesirable. Add support for the at24 to
execute probe while being powered off. For this to happen, a hint in form
of a device property is required from the firmware.

+Probing I²C devices in low power state

+
+Introduction
+============
+
+In some cases it may be preferred to leave certain devices powered off for the
+entire system bootup if powering on these devices has adverse side effects,
+beyond just powering on the said device. Linux recognizes the _DSD property
+"allow-low-power-probe" that can be used for this purpose.
+
+How it works
+============
+
+The property "allow-low-power-probe" boolean property may be used to tell Linux
+that the I²C framework should instruct the kernel ACPI framework to leave the
+device in the low power state. If the driver indicates its support for this by
+setting the I2C_DRV_FL_ALLOW_LOW_POWER_PROBE flag in struct i2c_driver.flags
+field and the "allow-low-power-probe" property is present, the device will not
+be powered on for probe.
+
+The downside is that as the device is not powered on, even if there's a problem
+with the device, the driver likely probes just fine but the first user will
+find out the device doesn't work, instead of a failure at probe time. This
+feature should thus be used sparingly.

I would reorder the series to make this go right after the [1/6] or
maybe even fold it into that patch.

The point is that the changes in [1/6] clearly depend on the property
defined here.

It would be good to refer to the document defining the generic _DSD
properties mechanism and the GUID used for that from here.

The meaning of  "_DSD property" may not be entirely clear to the
reader as it stands.

And maybe call the property "i2c-allow-low-power-probe" or similar, to
indicate that it is specific to i2c.

It would be good to give an ASL example with this property provided.

I'll add a reference to the device properties UUID for _DSD spec.

The bus determines that already, and it's only defined for I²C here. Should
we need this in the future for e.g. I3C, there would be no need to think of
renaming it, just changing the documentation and implementation.

I don't have a strong opinion on that though.
