More importantly you should mention the addition of the MMC2 DS pin,
since this is actually the only one we care about (I am not aware of a
driver for the SIM or TS IP blocks).


So while this patch technically looks correct, I was wondering if we
should really explore the possibility of making the whole of sunxi
pinctrl DT controlled.
I brought this up a while ago, but people weren't overly enthusiastic
about it, though their argument weren't really convincing to me[1].

So:
As this "driver" here is basically a table linking GPIO bit settings
(the actual mux value) to names and every pin we care about needs to be
enumerated in the DT anyway, why not just add something like:
allwinner,pinmux = <4>;
to each pin(group) in the DT and get rid of this "driver" file here
entirely?
Apart from saving us to dump tables for each and every SoC into the
kernel as a rather mechanical exercise, this would allow us to support
new SoCs without having to add explicit kernel support for pinctrl.

Icenowy, since you seem to have excess spare time ;-), could you imagine
to have a look what would be needed to make this happen or if there are
showstoppers preventing us from doing so without significant reworks?
>From a 10,000 feet I'd imagine that we need to add some properties for
the interrupts (number of banks?), maybe one property to set the number
of used GPIO banks (to help enumeration). Also I guess the common sunxi
pinctrl driver code needs some significant rework.

Cheers,
Andre.

I'm open to that if you can use pinctrl-single which is in the kernel
for this purpose only, and is used with both OMAPs and HiSilicon.

It recently was improved and will be improved more in this cycle,
see for example:
commit 42124bc598f64f84b3335d5a058304207695b84f
pinctrl: Introduce generic #pinctrl-cells and pinctrl_parse_index_with_args

I would guess is just needs replacing with pinctrl-single in that case.

And if pinctrl-single won't work then it is now also be easier to make
hardware specific drivers too using #pinctrl-cells + GENERIC_PINCTRL_GROUPS +
GENERIC_PINMUX_FUNCTIONS.

I'm not open to that, and I'm getting tired of discussing it over and
over again. Andre, if you want to be convinced again, please read the
last discussion we had on this topic.

As I said: It didn't convince me back then. And frankly we didn't really
discuss it back then, I just refrained from entering a discussion
against _two_ maintainers at this time, since my capacity on this kind
of email threads is really very limited - especially for something that
is a hobby to me.

It isn't the highest priority on my list, but I am still planning on
sketching something, so that we can discuss about actual code.
As it seems like your new patches bring some relief to the immediate
copy&paste pain (though the actual DT aspect still remains), I will shut
up - for now ;-)

Cheers,
Andre.

This is also (mostly) a hobby to me, which is exactly why I prefer to
work on something actually useful, rather than just discussing this
over and over again. Just like I don't want (myself, or anyone,
really, since we're all in the same boat) to have to maintain two
separate pinctrl drivers.

We're having a documented, simple, pinctrl binding, using the generic
bindings now (that almost everyone else is using now, or is very close
to), and we can leverage as much documentation and code from that. Why
would we want to create and maintain a new driver with a new binding,
that will need to be documented again, learned by everyone, and will
lead only to confusion across the people who just want to have their
board supported?

And imagine the kind of mess we would be in if everyone getting a bit
involved in the support of one platform at one point wanted to trash
one big part of its infrastructure and start all over again because he
likes it better this way.

I'm sorry, but this is also our jobs as maintainers to prevent all
these kind of issues, and to maintain consistency. Switching to one
binding to another breaks that consistency on many level, both in
pinctrl and in the platform support itself. So sorry, but that's not
going to happen.

I agree, and thus was proposing a _slightly changed_ pinctrl driver
which actually *reduces* the maintenance burden in the kernel.
In the moment we need to add _both_ a pinctrl .dtsi node _and_ a kernel
"driver" file, which is really boilerplate code plus a table.
Also we need to make sure that both these files match.
If a new SoC is really 99% similar to an existing one, atm we still need
explicit kernel support if only one pin is changed (see the H5).

So my idea was to basically add the mux value as a DT property, thus
making the kernel pinctrl-sun[x]i-a[yz].c files obsolete and greatly
_reduce_ the maintenance burden. Ideally there wouldn't be any pinctrl
code changes in the kernel for future SoCs anymore - at least if
Allwinner sticks with their current pace of releasing copy&pasted SoC
designs. Changes beyond that would require a driver change anyway, even
with the current model.

I gave Linus' proposal to use the pinctrl-single binding a quick look
and don't think it's a match for Allwinner SoC. So my idea was to
basically just add a new compatible and the muxsel property to the
existing driver and binding. It would basically look the same, apart
from one or two additions (to cover interrupts, for instance).
Any future SoCs could then just use that compatible and would describe
the SoC details in the DT, like it's meant to be and like we do already,
but extended by putting the mux value in there as well.
So the only kernel contribution would then be the DT, really, which
technically could be delivered on some device storage as well, but
that's a different discussion ...

Like I said above, I didn't mean to trash the current pinctrl binding,
just make it a bit more generic and simplify future kernel support.

Yet we did it for the clocks. The very same argumentation that you gave
above applies there as well (two different bindings, two sets of drivers
in the kernel, new learnings for people, etc.)
One difference would be that the new pinctrl binding wouldn't be
fundamentally different to the old one, up to the point where the old
driver could possibly use the very same DT nodes (but that would need to
be worked out).

Your different positions have existed since the inception of the
pinctrl subsystem:

- One camp (myself included) wanted to describe the hardware mostly
  in the driver: functions, groups etc are tables in the driver file.

- Another camp (OMAP included) think that the device tree should take
  store most things: groups functions, etc.

What we know for sure should be described in DT is how different
IP blocks are connected in an SoC (e.g. interrupts, clocks, DMA
channels, regulators) and on the of course outside of the SoC, on
the board.

The question here is whether the way a hardware has instantiated
a certain IP block when doing physical compilation in their
Verilog, VHDL or SystemC files, is something that should be
described in DT.

Many companies have developed tools to
extract this data from their hardware design files and provide
it to developers as a blob och incomprehensible data, such was
the situation for OMAP for example. So to them it made most
sense to implement pinctrl-single, just parsing that data into
DTS(I) files.

Other companies (such as STMicroelectronics) instead put a
team of people to write a datasheet with a special chapter
on how pins etc are connected, and programmers are given
this datasheet and need to again type in the data and define
groups etc.

Whether parametrization of a HW block should be done in the
driver file from the compatible string or with custom attributes
in the node is not a simple answer to the question. OF is vague
on this kind of things: both solutions exist.

Allwinner and Qualcomm authors faced a situation such as that
they were given a code dump and no datasheet and no data
tables either. That creates an especially complicated situation
where none of the above scenarios apply.

What we/you need to ask: what is most helpful for the Allwinner
community? What makes the barrier low for new contributions,
and makes it easiest to cooperate?

I try to live by this motto from IETF:

   "rough consensus and running code"

Please do the same.

That has not always been true for all the SoCs, and it's still not the
case, even for newer SoCs.

That's not true anymore. And while it's true that it reduces the
amount of maintainance on the kernel side and more on the DT side. And
from what you're constantly saying, the thing we can't plan on fixing
/ upgrading is the DT, while the kernel is easy to change.

Which means that if we ever want to fix a non-upgradable DT, the only
way to do that would be to add quirks fixing it in the kernel
itself. Adding more maintainance burden to the kernel.

But really, this is not up for debate. You're 4 years too late for
that for the original binding, and almost 2 years for the generic
binding.

No, this is very different. An end user just wanting to plug a dumb
device on his i2c bus will never even see how clocks are
described. This is not true for pinctrl.

And all the other arguments for the clocks have been the same than the
pinctrl driver: every driver is converging to the new binding we've
been using, the table in the kernel is easier to fix, etc.

The story is different if you manage to keep the binding. Every
platform (but TI's) is converging to the generic bindings. Not using
them is not an option. Having a different implementation is.

This is a good argument to not put groups and functions into the
DT at all. If the following propositions hold:

- Functions and group definitions will contain bugs

- Those bugs will need to be fixed by changing the buggy
  definitions

- It is hard to change the DTB, it is easy to change the zImage

Then by logical deduction the definitions should be in the kernel
to minimize maintenance burden.

There is a pattern amongst firmware people that they think that
they always get the group and function definitions right on first
try. As long as there are humans involved in the process, this
stance is provedly wrong, just use git log and you will see how
much of such bugs we fix, even in drivers and DTSes produced
by the vendors themselves.
