[PATCH] ARC: HSDK: improve reset driver

[PATCH] ARC: HSDK: improve reset driver

[Eugeniy Paltsev]

As for today HSDK reset driver implements only
.reset() callback.

In case of driver which implements one of standard
reset controller usage pattern
(call *_deassert() in probe(), call *_assert() in remove())
that leads to inoperability of this reset driver.

Improve HSDK reset driver by calling .reset() callback inside of
.assert()/.deassert() callbacks to avoid each reset controller
user adaptation for work with both reset methods
(reset() and .assert()/.deassert() pair)

Hi Philipp,

Maybe you have any comments or remarks about this patch? And if you don't could you please apply it.
Thanks!

This is incorrect for exclusive reset controls.
It will cause reset_control_assert() to return success for exclusive
reset controls, even though the .assert op failed to leave the reset
line asserted after the function returns.

While calling hsdk_reset_reset from .assert for shared reset controls
would be fine, I don't see how this is necessary of useful.
If a consumer driver requires the reset to be asserted upon remove(), it
must not request a shared reset control anyway, because with shared
reset controls other drivers may keep the reset line deasserted
indefinitely.

This should be fine. I wonder from time to time whether this should be
implemented in the core, in reset_control_deassert().

Philipp

Ok, I agree that doing reset from .assert isn't necessary/useful here.
The reason I added hsdk_reset_reset into .assert is to prevent -ENOTSUPP
returning by reset_control_assert().

Lots of drivers implement following pattern to reset HW:
------------------------->8------------------------------
reset_control_assert(resets);
usleep_range(10, 1000);
reset_control_deassert(resets);
------------------------->8------------------------------

And some of them check reset_control_assert() and reset_control_deassert()
return status.

So these driver will fail if I implement only .reset and .deassert callback in my
reset driver.

I can implement something like that:
------------------------->8------------------------------
static int hsdk_dummy_assert(struct reset_controller_dev *rd, unsigned long id)
{
	return 0;
}

static const struct reset_control_ops hsdk_reset_ops = {
	.reset    = hsdk_reset_reset,
	.assert   = hsdk_dummy_assert,
	.deassert = hsdk_reset_reset,
};
------------------------->8------------------------------

Sounds OK for me. At least I don't see any issues it may cause.
