Commit Message

Tony Lindgren Dec. 7, 2022, 12:43 p.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 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.

Suggested-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
Suggested-by: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@kernel.org>
Suggested-by: Johan Hovold <johan@kernel.org>
Signed-off-by: Tony Lindgren <tony@atomide.com>
---

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

Wouldn't be slightly better

	ctrl_dev = serial_core_ctrl_find(drv, port->dev, port->ctrl_id);
	if (!ctrl_dev)
		ctrl_dev = serial_core_ctrl_device_add(port);
	if (!ctrl_dev)

Shouldn't you call platform_device_unregister()?

Some missing forward declarations?

struct uart_driver:
struct uart_port;

?

Wouldn't be more logical to indent like

static DEFINE_RUNTIME_DEV_PM_OPS(serial_port_pm,
				 NULL, serial_port_runtime_resume,
				 NULL);

?

We can avoid this check by caching the platform device.

	struct platform_device *ctrl_pdev = NULL;

	if (...) {
		ctrl_pdev = to_platform_device(ctrl_dev);
	}

	platform_device_del(ctrl_pdev);

OK yeah that's nicer :)

Outside the error path it should be platform_device_unregister(),
I'll check. Thanks also for your other comments.

To me looks like we should just use platform_device_unregister()
in call cases here like you noted.

How is ->port_dev supposed to work here?

->port_dev is not set until in serial_core_port_device_add() but you made
serial_core_add_one_port() call before that.

Hmm do you mean you want to call serial_core_add_one_port() later after
serial_core_port_device_add()?

Or are you seeing some uninitialized use of port->port_dev (and not
port->dev)?

Tony

With the other patch on top of this, yes, I did see uninitialized 
port->port_dev already in serial_core_add_one_port()->uart_configure_port().
While that could be solved by removing the pm_runtime_*() calls from 
there, I think it's a generic problem because after 
serial_core_add_one_port() the port can have anything happening on it, no?

OK. Sounds like it should get sorted out by moving the call to
serial_core_add_one_port() to happen after the devices are created.

Can you give a try with the patch below and see if it works for you?
