Commit Message

Tony Lindgren May 11, 2023, 6:53 a.m. UTC
  We want to enable runtime PM for serial port device drivers in a generic
way. To do this, we want to have the serial core layer manage the
registered physical serial controller devices.

To do this, let's set up a struct bus and struct device for the serial
core controller as suggested by Greg and Jiri. The serial core controller
devices are children of the physical serial port device. The serial core
controller device is needed to support multiple different kind of ports
connected to single physical serial port device.

Let's also set up a struct device for the serial core port. The serial
core port instances are children of the serial core controller device.

With the serial core port device we can now flush pending TX on the
runtime PM resume as suggested by Johan.

Changes since v10:

- Added missing handling for unknown type in serial_base_device_add()
  as noted by kernel test robot

- Use y instead of objs fro serial_base in Makefile as noted by Andy

- Improve serial_port pm_ops alignment as noted by Andy

Changes since v9:

- Built in serial_base and core related components into serial_base.ko as
  suggested by Greg. We now have module_init only in serial_base.c that
  calls serial_base_ctrl_init() and serial_base_port_init(). I renamed
  serial_bus.c to serial_base_bus.c to build serial_base.ko. Note that
  if we wanted to build these into serial_core.ko, renaming serial_core.c
  would be needed which is not necessarily nice for folks that may have
  pending patches

- Dropped string comparison for ctrl and port, and switched to using
  struct device_type as suggested by Greg

- Dropped port->state checks in serial_base_get_port() as noted by
  Greg

- Dropped EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS(), these are no longer needed with components
  built into serial_base.ko. I also noticed that we have some dependency
  loops if components are not built into serial_base.ko. And we would
  have hard time later on moving port specific functions to serial_port.c
  for example

- Dropped checks for negative ctrl_id in serial_core_ctrl_find() as
  suggested by Greg

- Stopped resetting ctrl_id in serial_core_remove_one_port(), instead
  let's properly init it in serial8250_init_port(). The ctrl_id is
  optionally passed to uart_add_one_port() and zero otherwise

- Moved port_mutex and UPF_DEAD handling from serial_core_add_one_port()
  to serial_core_register_port() to simplify things a bit

- Updated license and copyright as suggested by Greg

- Dropped Andy's reviewed-by, things still changed quite a bit

Changes since v8:

- Drop unnecessary free for name noticed by Andy, the name is freed
  on put_device()

- Cosmetic fix for comments in serial_port.c noted by Andy

- Spelling fix for word uninitialized in serial_base_get_port()

Changes since v7:

- Add release() put_device() to serial_base.c as noted by Andy

- Make struct serial_base_device private to serial_base.c by adding
  serial_base_get_port()

- Add more comments to __uart_start()

- Coding style improvments for serial_base.c from Andy

Changes since v6:

- Fix up a memory leak and a bunch of issues in serial_base.c as noted
  by Andy

- Replace bool with new_ctrl_dev for freeing the added device on
  error path

- Drop unused pm ops for serial_ctrl.c as noted by kernel test robot

- Drop documentation updates for acpi devices for now to avoid a merge
  conflict and make testing easier between -rc2 and Linux next

Changes since v5:

- Replace platform bus and device with bus_add() and device_add(),
  Greg did not like platform bus and device here. This also gets
  rid of the need for platform data with struct serial_base_device,
  see new file serial_base.c

- Update documentation to drop reference to struct uart_device as
  suggested by Andy

Changes since v4:

- Fix issue noted by Ilpo by calling serial_core_add_one_port() after
  the devices are created

Changes since v3:

- Simplify things by adding a serial core control device as the child of
  the physical serial port as suggested by Jiri

- Drop the tinkering of the physical serial port device for runtime PM.
  Serial core just needs to manage port->port_dev with the addition of
  the serial core control device and the device hierarchy will keep the
  pysical serial port device enabled as needed

- Simplify patch description with all the runtime PM tinkering gone

- Coding style improvments as noted by Andy

- Post as a single RFC patch as we're close to the merge window

Changes since v2:

- Make each serial port a proper device as suggested by Greg. This is
  a separate patch that flushes the TX on runtime PM resume

Changes since v1:

- Use kref as suggested by Andy

- Fix memory leak on error as noted by Andy

- Use use unsigned char for supports_autosuspend as suggested by Andy

- Coding style improvments as suggested by Andy

Much better, thanks!

One thing jumps out at me though, you are passing around "raw" struct
device pointers as the serial port structure, why?

Shouldn't:

port_dev here be something like "struct serial_port" (or some better
name)?  That way you enforce the type being passed around to the serial
code in this change which will help catch any type mistakes.

Yes, this structure can just be a "wrapper" around 'struct device' but
at least it's a unique type.

Or am I missing why this was done this way?

thanks,

Good idea thanks, will change.

No reason to keep it as struct device.
