Changes in v13:
 - Use GFP_KERNEL when using mutexes instead of spinlocks
 - Free event_node on error in counter_set_event_node
 - Create n_events_list_lock mutex for protecting next_events_list
   access
 - Adjust counter_set_event_node() locking to cover watch_validate() too
 - Pull out COUNTER_ENABLE_EVENTS_IOCTL code into its own function
   counter_enable_events()
 - Reimplement chrdev_lock as a bitmap and utilize
   test_and_set_bit_lock()/clear_bit_unlock() to handle locking
 - Move wake_up_poll() call to after spin_unlock_irqrestore() in the
   counter_push_event() function
 - Drop the lock on error in counter_events_queue_size_write()
 - Rename "group" to "cattr_group" where appropriate for clarity
 - Pull allocation of attribute groups to outside of for-loop in
   counter_sysfs_add()
 - Define and use enum translation function st32_lptim_func_map()
 - Provide complete example in enum counter_component documentation
 - Provide inline description comments for enum counter_event_type
 - Move documentation of Counter ioctl commands inline with code and
   reference them using :c:macro: in generic-counter.rst
 - Make it clear which callbacks are optional in struct counter_ops
 - Use HTML tables in Documentation/driver-api/generic-counter.rst
 - Qualify struct counter_watch watches as statin in counter_example.c
 - Return 1 on read() error in counter_example.c
 - Remove unnecessary explicit casts in counter_example.c

For convenience, this patchset is also available on my personal git
repo: https://gitlab.com/vilhelmgray/iio/-/tree/counter_chrdev_v13

The patches preceding "counter: Internalize sysfs interface code" are
primarily cleanup and fixes that can be picked up and applied now to the
IIO tree if so desired. The "counter: Internalize sysfs interface code"
patch as well may be considered for pickup because it is relatively safe
and makes no changes to the userspace interface.

To summarize the main points of this patchset: there are no changes to
the existing Counter sysfs userspace interface; a Counter character
device interface is introduced that allows Counter events and associated
data to be read() by userspace; the events_configure() and
watch_validate() driver callbacks are introduced to support Counter
events; and IRQ support is added to the 104-QUAD-8 driver, serving as an
example of how to support the new Counter events functionality.

I did discover an issue with the character device code that I'm having
trouble understanding. The issue does not affect the sysfs interface
code so it's still safe to merge up to patch 08/17; only the character
device node is affected starting with patch 10/17.

Suppose I open the chrdev from a userspace application and keep it open,
but then remove the respective driver and Counter subsystem module from
my system. The devm_counter_release() and counter_exit() functions will
be called as expected; the counter_chrdev_release() function will not be
called yet, but that is expected because the chrdev is still open by
userspace. If I try to break out of my userspace application, I expect
counter_chrdev_release() to finally be called, but this does not happen.
Instead, my userspace application stalls and I see the following error
in my dmesg:

[  172.860073] Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!

It looks like faults in filp_close() before counter_chrdev_release() is
called. Is this issue manifesting because counter_exit() was called
earlier while the chrdev was still open?

The 104-QUAD-8 only has two count modes where a ceiling value makes
sense: Range Limit and Modulo-N. Outside of these two modes, setting a
ceiling value is an invalid operation -- so let's report it as such by
returning -EINVAL.

Only a select set of modes (function, action, etc.) are valid for a
given device configuration. This patch ensures that invalid modes result
in a return -EINVAL. Such a situation should never occur in reality, but
it's good to define a default switch case for the sake of making the
intent of the code clear.

ERANGE is a semantically better error code to return when an argument
value falls outside the supported limit range of a device.

Signal values will always be levels so let's be explicit it about it to
make the intent of the code clear.

The phrase "Counter Count function" is verbose and unintentionally
implies that function is a Count extension. This patch adjusts the
Counter subsystem code to use the more direct "Counter function" phrase
to make the intent of this code clearer.

This is a reimplementation of the Generic Counter driver interface.
There are no modifications to the Counter subsystem userspace interface,
so existing userspace applications should continue to run seamlessly.

The purpose of this patch is to internalize the sysfs interface code
among the various counter drivers into a shared module. Counter drivers
pass and take data natively (i.e. u8, u64, etc.) and the shared counter
module handles the translation between the sysfs interface and the
device drivers. This guarantees a standard userspace interface for all
counter drivers, and helps generalize the Generic Counter driver ABI in
order to support the Generic Counter chrdev interface (introduced in a
subsequent patch) without significant changes to the existing counter
drivers.

Note, Counter device registration is the same as before: drivers
populate a struct counter_device with components and callbacks, then
pass the structure to the devm_counter_register function. However,
what's different now is how the Counter subsystem code handles this
registration internally.

Whereas before callbacks would interact directly with sysfs data, this
interaction is now abstracted and instead callbacks interact with native
C data types. The counter_comp structure forms the basis for Counter
extensions.

The counter-sysfs.c file contains the code to parse through the
counter_device structure and register the requested components and
extensions. Attributes are created and populated based on type, with
respective translation functions to handle the mapping between sysfs and
the counter driver callbacks.

The translation performed for each attribute is straightforward: the
attribute type and data is parsed from the counter_attribute structure,
the respective counter driver read/write callback is called, and sysfs
I/O is handled before or after the driver read/write function is called.

The Counter subsystem architecture and driver implementations have
changed in order to handle Counter sysfs interactions in a more
consistent way. This patch updates the Generic Counter interface
documentation to reflect the changes.

+devm_counter_register function may be used if device memory-managed
+registration is desired.
+
+The struct counter_comp structure is used to define counter extensions
+for Signals, Synapses, and Counts.
+
+The "type" member specifies the type of high-level data (e.g. BOOL,
+COUNT_DIRECTION, etc.) handled by this extension. The "``*_read``" and
+"``*_write``" members can then be set by the counter device driver with
+callbacks to handle that data using native C data types (i.e. u8, u64,
+etc.).
+
+Convenience macros such as ``COUNTER_COMP_COUNT_U64`` are provided for
+use by driver authors. In particular, driver authors are expected to use
+the provided macros for standard Counter subsystem attributes in order
+to maintain a consistent interface for userspace. For example, a counter
+device driver may define several standard attributes like so::
+
+        struct counter_comp count_ext[] = {
+                COUNTER_COMP_DIRECTION(count_direction_read),
+                COUNTER_COMP_ENABLE(count_enable_read, count_enable_write),
+                COUNTER_COMP_CEILING(count_ceiling_read, count_ceiling_write),
+        };
+
+This makes it simple to see, add, and modify the attributes that are
+supported by this driver ("direction", "enable", and "ceiling") and to
+maintain this code without getting lost in a web of struct braces.
+
+Callbacks must match the function type expected for the respective
+component or extension. These function types are defined in the struct
+counter_comp structure as the "``*_read``" and "``*_write``" union
+members.
+
+The corresponding callback prototypes for the extensions mentioned in
+the previous example above would be::
+
+        int count_direction_read(struct counter_device *counter,
+                                 struct counter_count *count,
+                                 enum counter_count_direction *direction);
+        int count_enable_read(struct counter_device *counter,
+                              struct counter_count *count, u8 *enable);
+        int count_enable_write(struct counter_device *counter,
+                               struct counter_count *count, u8 enable);

-Architecture
-============
-
-When the Generic Counter interface counter module is loaded, the
-counter_init function is called which registers a bus_type named
-"counter" to the system. Subsequently, when the module is unloaded, the
-counter_exit function is called which unregisters the bus_type named
-"counter" from the system.
-
-Counter devices are registered to the system via the counter_register
-function, and later removed via the counter_unregister function. The
-counter_register function establishes a unique ID for the Counter
-device and creates a respective sysfs directory, where X is the
-mentioned unique ID:
-
-    /sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX
-
-Sysfs attributes are created within the counterX directory to expose
-functionality, configurations, and data relating to the Counts, Signals,
-and Synapses of the Counter device, as well as options and information
-for the Counter device itself.
-
-Each Signal has a directory created to house its relevant sysfs
-attributes, where Y is the unique ID of the respective Signal:
-
-    /sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX/signalY
-
-Similarly, each Count has a directory created to house its relevant
-sysfs attributes, where Y is the unique ID of the respective Count:
-
-    /sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX/countY
-
-For a more detailed breakdown of the available Generic Counter interface
-sysfs attributes, please refer to the
-Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-counter file.
-
-The Signals and Counts associated with the Counter device are registered
-to the system as well by the counter_register function. The
-signal_read/signal_write driver callbacks are associated with their
-respective Signal attributes, while the count_read/count_write and
-function_get/function_set driver callbacks are associated with their
-respective Count attributes; similarly, the same is true for the
-action_get/action_set driver callbacks and their respective Synapse
-attributes. If a driver callback is left undefined, then the respective
-read/write permission is left disabled for the relevant attributes.
-
-Similarly, extension sysfs attributes are created for the defined
-counter_device_ext, counter_count_ext, and counter_signal_ext
-structures that are passed in.
+Subsystem Architecture
+======================
+
+Counter drivers pass and take data natively (i.e. ``u8``, ``u64``, etc.)
+and the shared counter module handles the translation between the sysfs
+interface. This guarantees a standard userspace interface for all
+counter drivers, and enables a Generic Counter chrdev interface via a
+generalized device driver ABI.
+
+A high-level view of how a count value is passed down from a counter
+driver is exemplified by the following. The driver callbacks are first
+registered to the Counter core component for use by the Counter
+userspace interface components::

subsystem. Device data is exposed through standard character device read
operations. Device data is gathered when a Counter event is pushed by
the respective Counter device driver. Configuration is handled via ioctl
operations on the respective Counter character device node.

 Please refer to the ``Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-counter`` file
 for a detailed breakdown of the available Generic Counter interface
 sysfs attributes.
+
+Counter chrdev
+--------------
+Translates counter data to the standard Counter character device; data
+is transferred via standard character device read calls, while Counter
+events are configured via ioctl calls.
+
+Sysfs Interface
+===============
+
+Several sysfs attributes are generated by the Generic Counter interface,
+and reside under the ``/sys/bus/counter/devices/counterX`` directory,
+where ``X`` is to the respective counter device id. Please see
+``Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-counter`` for detailed information
+on each Generic Counter interface sysfs attribute.
+
+Through these sysfs attributes, programs and scripts may interact with
+the Generic Counter paradigm Counts, Signals, and Synapses of respective
+counter devices.
+
+Counter Character Device
+========================
+
+Counter character device nodes are created under the ``/dev`` directory
+as ``counterX``, where ``X`` is the respective counter device id.
+Defines for the standard Counter data types are exposed via the
+userspace ``include/uapi/linux/counter.h`` file.
+
+Counter events
+--------------
+Counter device drivers can support Counter events by utilizing the
+``counter_push_event`` function::
+
+        void counter_push_event(struct counter_device *const counter, const u8 event,
+                                const u8 channel);
+
+The event id is specified by the ``event`` parameter; the event channel
+id is specified by the ``channel`` parameter. When this function is
+called, the Counter data associated with the respective event is
+gathered, and a ``struct counter_event`` is generated for each datum and
+pushed to userspace.
+
+Counter events can be configured by users to report various Counter
+data of interest. This can be conceptualized as a list of Counter
+component read calls to perform. For example:
+
+        +-------------------------------------------------+
+        | COUNTER_EVENT_OVERFLOW | COUNTER_EVENT_INDEX    |
+        +========================+========================+
+        | Channel 0              | Channel 0              |
+        +------------------------+------------------------+
+        | * Count 0              | * Signal 0             |
+        | * Count 1              | * Signal 0 Extension 0 |
+        | * Signal 3             | * Extension 4          |
+        | * Count 4 Extension 2  +------------------------+
+        | * Signal 5 Extension 0 | Channel 1              |
+        |                        +------------------------+
+        |                        | * Signal 4             |
+        |                        | * Signal 4 Extension 0 |
+        |                        | * Count 7              |
+        +------------------------+------------------------+
+
+When ``counter_push_event(counter, COUNTER_EVENT_INDEX, 1)`` is called
+for example, it will go down the list for the ``COUNTER_EVENT_INDEX``
+event channel 1 and execute the read callbacks for Signal 4, Signal 4
+Extension 0, and Count 4 -- the data returned for each is pushed to a
+kfifo as a ``struct counter_event``, which userspace can retrieve via a
+standard read operation on the respective character device node.
+
+Userspace
+---------
+Userspace applications can configure Counter events via ioctl operations
+on the Counter character device node. There following ioctl codes are
+supported and provided by the ``linux/counter.h`` userspace header file:
+
+* :c:macro:`COUNTER_ADD_WATCH_IOCTL`
+
+* :c:macro:`COUNTER_ENABLE_EVENTS_IOCTL`
+
+* :c:macro:`COUNTER_DISABLE_EVENTS_IOCTL`
+
+To configure events to gather Counter data, users first populate a
+``struct counter_watch`` with the relevant event id, event channel id,
+and the information for the desired Counter component from which to
+read, and then pass it via the ``COUNTER_ADD_WATCH_IOCTL`` ioctl
+command.
+
+Note that an event can be watched without gathering Counter data by
+setting the ``component.type`` member equal to
+``COUNTER_COMPONENT_NONE``. With this configuration the Counter
+character device will simply populate the event timestamps for those
+respective ``struct counter_event`` elements and ignore the component
+value.
+
+The ``COUNTER_ADD_WATCH_IOCTL`` command will buffer these Counter
+watches. When ready, the ``COUNTER_ENABLE_EVENTS_IOCTL`` ioctl command
+may be used to activate these Counter watches.
+
+Userspace applications can then execute a ``read`` operation (optionally
+calling ``poll`` first) on the Counter character device node to retrieve
+``struct counter_event`` elements with the desired data.

The Generic Counter chrdev interface expects users to supply component
IDs in order to select Synapses for requests. In order for users to know
what component ID belongs to which Synapse this information must be
exposed. The signalZ_action_component_id attribute provides a way for
users to discover what component ID belongs to the respective Synapse.

The events_queue_size sysfs attribute provides a way for users to
dynamically configure the Counter events queue size for the Counter
character device interface. The size is in number of struct
counter_event data structures. The number of elements will be rounded-up
to a power of 2 due to a requirement of the kfifo_alloc function called
during reallocation of the queue.

This patch replaces the mutex I/O lock with a spinlock. This is in
preparation for a subsequent patch adding IRQ support for 104-QUAD-8
devices; we can't sleep in an interrupt context, so we'll need to use a
spinlock instead.

The LSI/CSI LS7266R1 chip provides programmable output via the FLG pins.
When interrupts are enabled on the ACCES 104-QUAD-8, they occur whenever
FLG1 is active. Four functions are available for the FLG1 signal: Carry,
Compare, Carry-Borrow, and Index.

	Carry:
		Interrupt generated on active low Carry signal. Carry
		signal toggles every time the respective channel's
		counter overflows.

	Compare:
		Interrupt generated on active low Compare signal.
		Compare signal toggles every time respective channel's
		preset register is equal to the respective channel's
		counter.

	Carry-Borrow:
		Interrupt generated on active low Carry signal and
		active low Borrow signal. Carry signal toggles every
		time the respective channel's counter overflows. Borrow
		signal toggles every time the respective channel's
		counter underflows.

	Index:
		Interrupt generated on active high Index signal.

These four functions correspond respectivefly to the following four
Counter event types: COUNTER_EVENT_OVERFLOW, COUNTER_EVENT_THRESHOLD,
COUNTER_EVENT_OVERFLOW_UNDERFLOW, and COUNTER_EVENT_INDEX. Interrupts
push Counter events to event channel X, where 'X' is the respective
channel whose FLG1 activated.

This patch adds IRQ support for the ACCES 104-QUAD-8. The interrupt line
numbers for the devices may be configured via the irq array module
parameter.

After giving this some more thought I realized that once the counter
module is unloaded, the counter_fops callbacks are lost and thus the
fops for the chrdev are no longer be valid. This means that
counter_chrdev_release will need to be called before the counter module
is unloaded. How can I guarantee this if a userspace application may
still have the chrdev indefinitely open? In counter_chrdev_remove(),
should I walk through the open chrdevs and release each one?

Sorry for all the noise, I had simply forgotten to define the owner
member of counter_fops structure to THIS_MODULE. I'll make that fix and
also add in some conditional checks to protect the callbacks so they
return -ENODEV if the counter has been unregistered. With that I expect
to have a v14 submission ready some time this coming week.
