[PATCH 1/3] iio: core: Add devm_ APIs for iio_channel_{get,release}

[Laxman Dewangan]

Some of kernel driver uses the IIO framework to get the sensor
value via ADC or IIO HW driver. The client driver get iio channel
by iio_channel_get() and release it by calling iio_channel_release().

Add resource managed version (devm_*) of these APIs so that if client
calls the devm_iio_channel_get() then it need not to release it explicitly,
it can be done by managed device framework when driver get un-binded.

This reduces the code in error path and also need of .remove callback in
some cases.

[PATCH 2/3] iio: core: Add devm_ APIs for iio_channel_{get,release}_all

[Laxman Dewangan]

Some of kernel driver uses the IIO framework to get the sensor
value via ADC or IIO HW driver. The client driver get iio channel
by iio_channel_get_all() and release it by calling
iio_channel_release_all().

Add resource managed version (devm_*) of these APIs so that if client
calls the devm_iio_channel_get_all() then it need not to release it
explicitly, it can be done by managed device framework when driver
get un-binded.

This reduces the code in error path and also need of .remove callback in
some cases.

Most of client for this APIs are in other subsystem.
When I was working on the patch
[PATCH 2/2] thermal: generic-adc: Add ADC based thermal sensor driver

if I have devm_iio_channel_get() then I can get .remove callback at all.

I did not use this new APIs in my patch because they are in different 
subsystem.

It's actually worse than that having taken a quick look at the generic-adc thermal patch
you reference above.
(perhaps worth cc'ing linux-iio for next version of that).

Without this devm function set you have a race in remove in which I think you can
get attempts to access the channels after they have been released...

This will get cleaned up in remove 'after' the iio_channels are released.
Hence you have a race in which they can probably be accessed after release
(unless some magic is going on that I've missed).

I'm fine with this - but would like it to sit for a few more days to see
if it gets any other feedback.

Yaah, possibly race for very small time possible.

The limitation of devm_ api usage is that, we can keep using this till 
we have devm_ api continuous and if some resource are not there for 
devm_ then we can not use further.
Possibly, I need to wait for the devm_iio_channel_get() to merge and 
available for all subsystem to use (next release) and then only I can 
use devm_thermal_zone_of_sensor_register().

The alternative would be to merge this devm_ support as a prerequisite for your thermal
patches and have it go through that tree.  As it's self contained I have
no particular problem with that if you'd prefer to do it that way.

Otherwise, you will need to do as you say above (not use
devm_thermal_zone_of_sensor_register) to make sure it isn't broken in the meantime.

I have recycled patch of thermal driver to not use devm_ for sensor 
registration.

I will post another patch in future once these changes will be available 
for all, most probably next release.

I think there is no further comment now on the series so you can 
consider for next step.

Thanks,

Applied to the togreg branch of iio.git.  
I guess the thermal driver use case will hit a cycle or so behind this.

Thanks for applying this.

Yes, thermal driver will use this in future release. This is to avoid 
any syncup between subsystem.
