Intel's LGM(Lightning Mountain) SoC contains a PWM fan controller
which is only used to control the fan attached to the system. This
PWM controller does not have any other consumer other than fan.
Add DT bindings documentation for this PWM fan controller.

Intel Lightning Mountain(LGM) SoC contains a PWM fan controller.
This PWM controller does not have any other consumer, it is a
dedicated PWM controller for fan attached to the system. Add
driver for this PWM fan controller.

Hello,

(hhm Thierry already announced to have taken this patch, so my review is
late.)

The driver now hardcodes 2-wire mode. IMHO that is worth mentioning.

My first reflex here was to point out that lgm_clk_disable() isn't the
counter part to lgm_clk_enable() and so lgm_clk_disable() needs
adaption. On a second look this is correct and so I think the function
names are wrong. The usual naming would be to use _release instead of
_disable. Having said that the enable function could be named
devm_clk_enable and live in drivers/clk/clk-devres.c. (Or
devm_clk_get_enabled()?)

You used dev_err_probe four times for six error paths. I wonder why you
didn't use it here (and below for a failing pwmchip_add()).

After lgm_reset_control_deassert is called pc->rst is unused. So there
is no need to have this member in struct lgm_pwm_chip. The same applies
to ->clk. (You have to pass rst (or clk) to devm_add_action_or_reset for
that to work. Looks like a nice idea anyhow.)

pc->chip.base should probably be set to -1.

There's also a build warning in linux-next caused by this patch, so I'm
going to back it out.

Rahul, please address Uwe's comments and make sure to fix the build
warning as well.

dev_err_probe() makes sense when we might experience deferred probe. In neither
of mentioned function this can be the case.

True. And above dev_err_probe() is not needed.

You argue that dev_err_probe() gives no benefit as
lgm_reset_control_deassert won't return -EPROBE_DEFER, right?

Still I consider it a useful function because

 a) I (as an author or as a reviewer) don't need to think if the
    failing function might return -EPROBE_DEFER now or in the future.
    dev_err_probe does the right thing even for functions that don't
    return -EPROBE_DEFER.

 b) With dev_err_probe() I can accomplish things in a single line that
    need two lines when open coding it.

 c) dev_err_probe() emits the symbolic error name without having to
    resort to %pe + ERR_PTR.

 d) Using dev_err_probe() for all error paths gives a consistency that I
    like with a maintainer's hat on.

So I still want to request using dev_err_probe() in all error paths.

Best regards
Uwe

As a maintainer it is your choice. I really would like to see more consensus
among maintainers, some are insisting of what I said, some, like you, on the
opposite, some hate that API and some simply don't care.

And on top of that I saw already use of API without taking returned value into
account.

Will change function name from _disable to _release. But i think addition
of a generic devm_clk_enable in drivers/clk/clk-devres.c can be taken as
a separate task in a future patch (not clubbed with this driver)..

Well noted, will update.

Agreed, will update.

Got it, will update. Thanks.

That would perhaps be true if all error paths did use dev_err_probe().
And even if that were the case, dev_err_probe() doesn't guarantee that
error messages will actually be consistent because developers can still
provide whatever format string they like.

Also, the format of the messages that dev_err_probe() prints is unlike
anything that I've seen, so introducing dev_err_probe() actually makes
things more inconsistent, in my opinion.

I have in fact been advocating for people to use error messages of the
form:

	"failed to ...: %d\n", err

or:

	"unable to ...: %d\n", err

Or some other similar form because that's the most common type that I
have come across in the kernel. I think it's also easier to read those
error messages because they contain the important data (i.e. the
description, which tells you what went wrong) first and then are
followed by the error code (which tells you how it failed).

Now I suspect the current format was chosen because we need to have the
constant part first, because otherwise the arbitrary format string could
be something that doesn't lend itself to have an error code appended.

The current format is arguably also something that's easier to parse
from some script because the format is in a somewhat standard format. On
the other hand, I think this is a bit misguided because we already have
structured log messages, so I wonder if it might have been better to
make the error code part of structured log messages to make them truly
machine readable but leave the formatting up to developers so that they
can use whatever is consistent within the driver or whatever fits best
without actually adding a standard string to the log messages.
