[PATCH 0/3] Raspberry Pi 4 PoE HAT fan support

[PATCH 0/3] Raspberry Pi 4 PoE HAT fan support

[Nicolas Saenz Julienne]

Hi everyone,
this series aims at adding support to RPi's official PoE HAT fan[1].

The HW setup is the following:

| Raspberry Pi                               | PoE HAT		          |
 arm core -> Mailbox -> RPi co-processor -> I2C -> Atmel MCU -> PWM -> FAN

The arm cores have only access to the mailbox interface, as i2c0, even if
physically accessible, is to be used solely by the co-processor
(VideoCore 4/6).

This series implements a PWM bus, and has pwm-fan sitting on top of it as per
this discussion: https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/9/2/486. Although this design has a
series of shortcomings:

- It depends on a DT binding: it's not flexible if a new hat shows up with new
  functionality, we're not 100% sure we'll be able to expand it without
  breaking backwards compatibility. But without it we can't make use of DT
  thermal-zones, which IMO is overkill.

- We're using pwm-fan, writing a hwmon driver would, again, give us more
  flexibility, but it's not really needed at the moment.

I personally think that it's not worth the effort, it's unlikely we'll get
things right in advance. And ultimately, if the RPi people come up with
something new, we can always write a new driver/bindings from scratch (as in
not reusing previous code).

That said, I'm more than happy to change things if there is a consensus that
another design will do the trick.

[PATCH 1/3] dt-bindings: pwm: Add binding for RPi firmware PWM bus

[Nicolas Saenz Julienne]

The PWM bus controlling the fan in RPi's official PoE hat can only be
controlled by the board's co-processor.

This is wrong. #pwm-cells specifies the number of "arguments" for
phandles pointing to this node. And I would prefer this being 2 to match
the stuff described in the generic pwm binding.

Uwe

I saw buses out there with the same limitation as this one (unable to change
frequency) that used a single cell, so I whent with it. That said I'll be happy
to change it and drop the custom *_xlate() function in benefit of the default
one.

Nicolas

As the first cell after the phandle is for the period and only the
second if for flags, this is a poor argument. So yes, use #pwm-cells =
<2> and drop the custom xlate() function please.

In that case aren't these bindings wrong (and associated xlate() functions)?

google,cros-ec-pwm.yaml:
[...]
	properties:
	  compatible:
	    const: google,cros-ec-pwm
	  "#pwm-cells":
	    description: The cell specifies the PWM index.
	    const: 1
[...]

cirrus,clps711x-pwm.txt:
[...]
	- #pwm-cells: Should be 1. The cell specifies the index of the channel.
[...]

Note that pxa-pwm.txt behaves as you comment.

Ultimately note that in of_pwm_simple_xlate() the second argument is used to
assign the pwm period, the first one is passed as an index to
pwm_request_from_chip().

> So yes, use #pwm-cells = <2> and drop the custom xlate() function please.

I'll still go this way nontheless. Just want to make sure I understand things
correctly.

Nicolas

Ah, got it wrong, I want #pwm-cells = <3> where the first argument is
the index, the second the period and the third flags.

Hmm, this one has a custom .xlate function, too :-\

[PATCH 3/3] pwm: Add Raspberry Pi Firmware based PWM bus

[Nicolas Saenz Julienne]

Adds support to control the PWM bus available in official Raspberry Pi
PoE HAT. Only RPi's co-processor has access to it, so commands have to
be sent through RPi's firmware mailbox interface.

This is more complicated than necessary.

	depends on RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE || COMPILE_TEST

is logically equivalent.

Please add a paragraph here about the hardware. See pwm-sifive.c for a
template. (Please stick to the format there to simplify grepping.)

The things to point out there are:

 - No disable bit, so a disabled PWM is simulated by duty_cycle 0
 - Only normal polarity
 - Fixed period

Also add a note about if the currently running period is completed when
the hardware is reconfigured.

If possible please also add a link to a product page and/or
documentation.

Please round up the result of the division. (The idea is that if you
apply the state .get_state() returns this should yield no change.)

You need to check for polarity here.

What happens if duty_cycle happens to be bigger than RPI_PWM_MAX_DUTY?

I think the right thing to do here is:

	if (state->period < RPI_PWM_PERIOD_NS ||
	    state->polarity != PWM_POLARITY_NORMAL)
		return -EINVAL;

	if (!state->enabled)
		duty_cycle = 0
	else if (state->duty_cycle < RPI_PWM_PERIOD_NS)
		duty_cycle = state->duty_cycle * RPI_PWM_MAX_DUTY / RPI_PWM_PERIOD_NS;
	else
		duty_cycle = RPI_PWM_MAX_DUTY;

	ret = raspberrypi_pwm_set_property(pc->firmware, RPI_PWM_CUR_DUTY_REG,
					   pc->duty_cycle);
	if (ret)
		...

	pc->duty_cycle = duty_cycle;

Huh, why do you have to do this twice, just with different error
messages? I assume you want to set RPI_PWM_DEF_DUTY_REG? What is the
effect of writing this property?

Firmware.

I think you don't need this function. Just fix up period in .apply().

What does "pc" stand for? I'd have used "rpipwm" or something similar.

I don't see a mechanism that prevents the driver providing the firmware
going away while the PWM is still in use.

It's not exactly the same, see patch 7ed915059c300 ("gpio: raspberrypi-ext: fix
firmware dependency ") which explains why this pattern is needed.

Why not using state->period != RPI_PWM_PERIOD_NS here?

OK, clearly better this way.

Obviously, I failed to change the register name.

This is supposed to set the default duty cycle after resetting the board. I
added it so as to keep compatibility with the downstream version of this.

I'll add a comment to explain this.

As commented in the dt binding patch, I'll do that.

It was cargo culted from other pwm drivers, I saw it being used on more than
one and figured it was the preferred way of naming things. I'll change it.

There isn't an explicit one. But since you depend on a symbol from the firmware
driver you won't be able to remove the kernel module before removing the PMW
one.

Hmm, this is strange, but if Arnd doesn't know a better solution, then
be it so. Is this idiom usual enough to not justify a comment?

From the consumer's point of view having to hit the only correct period
is hard. So the usual convention is to provide the biggest period not
bigger than the requested one. (The idea for the future is to provide a
pwm_round_state() function which allows to find out the effect of
pwm_apply_state() with the same arguments. This then allows to
efficiently find the best setting for the consumer.)

this prevents the that the module is unloaded, but not that the driver
is unbound.

Yes, if you were to unbind the firmware device all devices that depend on it
(there are a bunch of them) would access freed memory. Yet again, there is no
hotplug functionality, so short of being useful for development it'd be very
rare for someone to unbind it. We've been living with it as such for a long
time. Not to say that is something not to fix, but from my perspective it's
just a corner-case.

We are using 'simple-mfd' in order to probe all devices under the
firmware interface, so my first intuition would be to add support for
automatically unbinding of consumer devices in of/platform.c. See:

diff --git a/drivers/of/platform.c b/drivers/of/platform.c

                return 0;
 
        for_each_child_of_node(bus, child) {

If this is too much for OF maintainers, we could simply create the link upon
calling rpi_firmware_get().

This solves the problem of getting a kernel panic because of the use after
free, but you'll still get some warnings after unbinding from the GPIO
subsystem, for example, as we just removed a gpiochip that still has consumers
up. I guess device links only go so far.

Any ideas/comments?

Nicolas

I agree, that's a corner case. However in my eyes it is one that should
be get right. Did you try if this is indeed a problem?

This looks wrong for generic code. A solution local to simple-mfd (or
even the firmware device?) should be done (and doable). I think the
straight forward approach would be to add reference counting and make
.remove of the firmware device block if there are still users.
(Returning an error doesn't prevent the device going away IIRC. Last
time I looked .remove returning something non-0 didn't make any
difference. Maybe we should change it to return void?)

I don't know how DL_FLAG_AUTOREMOVE_CONSUMER works, but this sounds
better.

If this is indeed a real problem, lets take this to the GPIO
maintainers.
