[RFC PATCH for Juno 0/2] Drivers for Juno to boot from ACPI

[RFC PATCH for Juno 0/2] Drivers for Juno to boot from ACPI

[Hanjun Guo]

This patch set is example of the sort of driver changes needed to boot
Juno using ACPI tables, which using the ACPI tables devloped for MS
Windows and published by ARM [1].

For the smsc911x driver, it is based on the following ASL fragment
which is part of DSDT for Juno:

    // LAN9118 Ethernet
    //
    Device(ETH0) {
      Name(_HID, "ARMH9118")
      Name(_UID, Zero)
      Name(_CRS, ResourceTemplate() {
              Memory32Fixed(ReadWrite, 0x1A000000, 0x1000)
              Interrupt(ResourceConsumer, Level, ActiveHigh, Exclusive) { 192 }
      })
    }

UART driver is just for review purpose, ARM is working on a more
functional UART driver that does not poll to transmit. But it shows
how to initialise SBSA compatible UART without clock definitions in
DSDT.

You also can refer to the boot log from [2].

[Hanjun Guo]

From: Graeme Gregory <graeme.gregory@linaro.org>

This is a standard platform device to resources are converted in the
ACPI core in the same fasion as DT resources. For the other DT
provided information there is _DSD for ACPI.

Please remove the #ifdef and use 

	if (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ACPI) || !ahandle)

to check for ACPI support. This should result in the same object code
in all cases, but give better compile-time coverage when ACPI is
disabled.

Also, -ENOSYS is probably the wrong return value. I think you mean
-ENXIO.

Is there any reason not to consider submitting this as a TTY driver now
- are there known problems other than the issues with ACPI in general
(I've not reviewed the code at all)?  The ACPI binding in this case
seems particularly safe since it's a purposely basic and unconfigurable
IP.

I guess we may want to consider handoff to the full pl011 driver at some
point but there's a bunch of stuff with clocks to worry about before
then.

Yes that would make sense thanks.

Not sure if we are planning to actually upstream this patch, I guess it
depends if ARM start shipping Junos with the ACPI tables loaded on them.

What about platform support?

I see that there is a patch in your git tree at
https://git.linaro.org/leg/acpi/acpi.git/commitdiff/b9a635e3b4cb167d399
that exposes the raw system registers in the same way that the DT support
does, which I guess is not how you plan to do it for ACPI when you are
done.

Is that still work in progress? How do you plan to abstract things
like the hwmon, LEDs, GPIO etc that are handled through the
sysregs in hardware?

That should be easy to fix, and a good idea in general, independent
of this patch.
We generally make function declarations and type definitions visible
(possibly empty) for disabled subsystems so the code using them
silently goes away when that subsystem is disabled.

Confused. Then how come smsc911x_drv_probe() has this line:

	acpi_handle *ahandle = ACPI_HANDLE(&pdev->dev);

without any #ifdef's.

There's a stub smsc911x_probe_config_acpi() provided in the non-ACPI
case, Arnd's suggestion is basically to remove the stub.

It is possible I confused myself as some types moved around in ACPI

I don't like this and it shows issues we have with ACPI on certain ARM
platforms. You hard-code these values to match the Juno platform. What
if we get another SoC which has different configuration here? For DT, we
have the smsc911x_probe_config_dt() which reads the relevant information
from DT. I think this kind of configuration would be more suitable as
_DSD properties and sharing the similar names with DT (but we go back to
the question about who's in charge of the _DSD properties).

In most of the ACPI patches so far we check for ACPI first with DT as a
fall-back if ACPI is not enabled. This changes here. I would prefer
something which probes only ACPI if the ACPI is enabled (run-time, not
config) otherwise DT only. E.g.

I think Catalin is referring to ACPI_HANDLE used without any #ifdefs

Catalin, few macros like ACPI_HANDLE and ACPI_PTR are defined in
include/linux/acpi.h even when CONFIG_ACPI is not set mainly to
avoid #ifdef's around simple assignments like the above one and one
in platform_driver.acpi_match_table

Good point, I totally missed that.

There is of course the possibility to set those values based on the
acpi_device_id, but that is exactly the part that _DSD is trying to
avoid.

Does this really make a difference?

(example missing?)

I think we should have the equivalent of of_have_populated_dt(), to
check whether acpi is being used to boot, and have that new function
be hardcoded to zero in case of !IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ACPI).

My comment was to Graeme who said that #ifdef's were needed because
acpi_handle (lowercase) was not defined in the !CONFIG_ACPI case.
However, further down in the patch it was used without any #ifdef's.

I knew that driver was being developed and is why we specifically said

I would prefer to avoid acpi_device_id checks. This would defeat the
alleged aim of ACPI to run newer hardware configuration with older
kernels.

Not the order (well, someone may think that if they unflatten the DT in
a vendor kernel even though it boot as ACPI, they could get away with a
mix of DT and ACPI ;)).

I was looking through the code and forgot. Something like:

	if (acpi_disabled)
		retval = smsc911x_probe_config_dt();
	else
		retval = smsc911x_probe_config_acpi();

I think you meant hardcoded to 1 when !ACPI. That would work as well.

This will of course most likely be replaced by _DSD values. I just
hardcoded for now as _DSD is not yet in the kernel and issues around
maintenance of bindings are not solved (unless this happened at KS where
I was not present).

if (!acpi_disabled) is the equivalent if I understand you correctly.

But people until this point had expressed a preference for checking
.of_node and ACPI_HANDLE() to this point. This is obviously mutable
though depending on community preference.

Ah OK, I misunderstood. In that case Graeme statement is wrong.
IIRC acpi_handle is not structure, it's just a ptr used for object
references in ACPI namespace and is available even when !CONFIG_ACPI

Not really.  AIUI the official thing is still some combination of
getting a DT binding defined and then use that verbatim (as the x86
embedded people want to though I'm still not clear that the Windows
people are on board with this) and the UEFI processes.  It's possible I
misunderstood though.

Realistically if something is usable on x86 embedded it's going to be
supported on ARMv8 servers too unless we jump through hoops, and even
there real implementations in the wild will probably win out.

Not much at the KS, I think it will need to be followed up on lkml
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/8/17/10 is the last I'm aware of, not sure
about any updates in the meantime).

While the above gets sorted, what's the position from an ARM
perspective (and covered by Documentation/arm64/arm-acpi.txt)? I think
the "Device Enumeration" section in this document is fine, it's just the
kernel infrastructure missing.

Alternatively, you can say _DSD is not allowed (yet?) but I don't
particularly like basing the configuration on acpi_device_id like in
this patch. Which would leave us with ignoring any SoC containing
devices that require such specific configuration.

The way I recall the discussion, most people were on one extreme
side of the discussion or the other:

a) We should use _DSD for ARM64 servers to maximize code reuse with
DT-enabled drivers, work around the slow UEFI standardization process,
remain in control of the actual bindings, and avoid the need for
endless per-ID platform-data definitions in drivers.

b) We should never use _DSD at all, since doing that would have no
advantage over using DT directly, and we should force every device
manufacturer to specify their bindings in an official ACPI document
to prevent random incompatible bindings from being established.
Any device that shows up in servers should not need arbitrary detailed
properties anyway, as the details are supposed to be hidden in AML.

I can understand the reasons for both approaches, and I find it hard
to say either one is invalid. However, the worst possible outcome in
my opinion would be having to support a mix of the two.

Right, and the x86 embedded folks are going full steam ahead with _DSD
regardless so it seems there will be some systems out there using it
even if they're not ARM servers.

Our intention is specifically not to use "random incompatible bindings"
in that.  We'd rather have a common venue and process for establishing
new bindings for both DT and _DSD in a compatible way.

Right, I think everyone is on the same page for the embedded x86 case,
my point was that there is no consensus about that yet among the
parties involved in arm64 servers.

However, in the case of MAC devices where you might need to specify just
a couple of properties using _DSD, a specific set of discussions has
been instigated. As you mentioned, though, this pertains only to certain
devices and isn't necessarily true for every Ethernet device.
Consequently, while a Juno PoC patch might use a kludge today, that
doesn't mean it's a limitation of ACPI, just of certain devices.

I think we do want this upstreamed. Juno is intended to be a readily
available reference platform, regardless of the firmware loaded when
shipped. There will be users who use it as a test platform for ACPI
development.

These are merely defaults. DSD parsing, when implemented, would be
override these default values.

Nope. Only one of DT or ACPI will be matched.

The code already accounts for it. If ACPI isn't enabled, or isn't
populated, then the ACPI_HANDLE macro will return NULL and the
smsc911x_probe_config_acpi() function will fail.

The patches for Juno are not intrusive. The only problem I have is
giving the wrong example on how to deal with the platform-specific
device information like this patch. I would much prefer to use _DSD
(once we agree on how to do this) than hard-coding information based on
the ACPI device id (you would need one for each SoC). I don't think we
have reached an agreement yet:

One note of caution here: I do agree that default settings are good but
it's worth having clear rules for how we pick the defaults, and advice
for maintainers on how to pick those rules.  If there's a default people
often want to pick it to match their particular system and it can
sometimes be hard for the maintainer to identify if a given tweak
someone is proposing in the defaults might break some other existing
system.  Having clear guidelines for picking the defaults avoids
arguments and breakage.

The two basic rules I've seen are that we either follow the defaults
the hardware has after reset or we follow the state the hardware is left
in when the kernel starts.  Neither is perfect and sometimes the
bootloader option just doesn't make sense at all but they're at least
clear and simple to understand.

It's not the end of the world to do something else, and sometimes the
way systems are done just doesn't lend itself to providing clear rules,
but if we encourage people to set them they can save grief.
