v2 cover mmc_of_parse() adaptations, DT support for Sheevaplugs

While adding DT support for the Sheevaplugs by Globalscale Technologies (Kirkwood), it turned out that the DT binding of mvsdio lacked features to properly support the hardware (active high/low of CD and WP pins could not be described in DT).

This is standard functionality provided by the mmc_of_parse() helper function. However, mmc_of_parse() may allocate GPIO lines. If the allocation fails, it outputs an error, but does not return an error to its caller. Therefore, a proposal to handle errors in mmc_of_parse() is made.

The patch set is structured as follows:

1 Adapt mmc_of_parse() to return errors
2-6 Handle errors in current drivers using mmc_of_parse() (compile tested
only)
7-8 Convert mvsdio and respective dts files to mmc_of_parse() (tested on
kirkwood)
9 Add dts files for (eSATA) Sheevaplug
10 Add DT support for (eSATA) Sheevaplug

I could only test on an eSATA Sheevaplug. I found patches with different LEDs for the Sheevaplug. Thus, I would highly appreciate if someone with the hardware could give this a spin on a non-eSATA version. Some additional testing of the change detect and write protect behaviour for mvsdio can't hurt either. I hope that there aren't board revisions with different CD/WP pins out there.

Instead of parsing the DT binding on our own, use the standard parser mmc_of_parse(), introduced by commit 6c56e7a.

Just a heads up I'm adding this to the mvebu/defconfig tree. v3.10-rc1 changed a few things for defconfig, but it's so little, I'm not worrying about breaking it out.

v2 cover mmc_of_parse() adaptations, DT support for Sheevaplugs

In reply to Simon Baatz

Hi Simon

While adding DT support for the Sheevaplugs by Globalscale Technologies (Kirkwood), it turned out that the DT binding of mvsdio lacked features to properly support the hardware (active high/low of CD and WP pins could not be described in DT).

This is standard functionality provided by the mmc_of_parse() helper function. However, mmc_of_parse() may allocate GPIO lines. If the allocation fails, it outputs an error, but does not return an error to its caller. Therefore, a proposal to handle errors in mmc_of_parse() is made.

Thanks for the patches. In principle I'm fine either way. It is a policy decision IMHO. E.g. consider a situation. You have a DT with an SD-card slot, where card-detection is performed by a GPIO. OTOH the same pin is used on some other (optional) interface on the same board. If that other competing interface is unused, the driver isn't loaded, you can use the GPIO for card-detection. However, if that other interface is used, your attempt to get the card-detect pin will fail, but you still can use the interface in polling mode. No, I don't think this is a good example of hardware design :) User experience would depend on driver probing order, but in principle it is imaginable. So, with the current mmc_of_parse() you're more tolerant. You get a warning in the log, but the interface might still be usable. And if you're surprised why your write protection status hasn't been properly detected - just look in the log.

You're proposing a change in behaviour. After your change any failure to obtain a resource in mmc_of_parse() will fail interface probing. Personally I don't think there are any users around, who would notice this change, still, we have to be aware of it. And I don't know whether we should do that. You know, we don't break user-space ;-)

So, technically I'm ok with the changes, but policy-wise I'm not sure how severe this change would be. We could go a bit slower and first add a return code as in your patch #1, but not fail drivers, like in your patches #2, 3,... but WARN_ON(mmc_of_parse() < 0); and continue for now. In 3.12 we could then replace those warnings with real failures. But maybe I'm just overcautious and we can just go ahead with your patches. You can add my

The patch set is structured as follows:

1 Adapt mmc_of_parse() to return errors
2-6 Handle errors in current drivers using mmc_of_parse() (compile tested
only)
7-8 Convert mvsdio and respective dts files to mmc_of_parse() (tested on
kirkwood)
9 Add dts files for (eSATA) Sheevaplug
10 Add DT support for (eSATA) Sheevaplug

I could only test on an eSATA Sheevaplug. I found patches with different LEDs for the Sheevaplug. Thus, I would highly appreciate if someone with the hardware could give this a spin on a non-eSATA version. Some additional testing of the change detect and write protect behaviour for mvsdio can't hurt either. I hope that there aren't board revisions with different CD/WP pins out there.

Simon Baatz (10):
mmc: return mmc_of_parse() errors to caller
mmc: sh_mmcif: handle mmc_of_parse() errors during probe
mmc: tmio-mmc: handle mmc_of_parse() errors during probe
mmc: mxcmmc: handle mmc_of_parse() errors during probe
mmc: sdhi-pxav3: handle mmc_of_parse() errors during probe
mmc: tegra: handle mmc_of_parse() errors during probe
ARM: mvebu: Use standard MMC binding for all users of mvsdio
mmc: mvsdio: use standard MMC device-tree binding parser

Yes, there is value in both ways. As should be clear by now, I prefer being more strict here :-). But in the end, it is a policy decision as you say.

There is also a "middle way" to split off the gpio allocation. This has already been proposed in some other thread IIRC.

For example, split the current mmc_of_parse() into:

- mmc_of_parse(): Parses everything except the cd, wp gpios. It can't return an error and assumes sensible default values in case of a parse error (as it does today).

- mmc_of_gpio_cd(), mmc_of_gpio_wp(): Parses the cd/wp parts and requests the respective gpio (returning an error if that fails).

However, this means up to three calls instead of one in the driver (and the respective error checking if needed).

On the other hand, it offers more flexibility: the driver can decide whether to ignore the error, fall back to MMC_CAP_NEEDS_POLL or abort the probe.

Thanks for the review and the ack! Of course, I am fine with a more cautious way if that's required.

I realized that I missed one use case: There are platforms on which a driver may load earlier than the GPIO driver. In this case, EPROBE_DEFER can be used to retry the probe later. Actually, mmci.c is an example of such a driver.

Thus, when calling of_get_named_gpio_flags() in mmc_of_parse(), we need to check for EPROBE_DEFER and return that to the caller. I will update the patch accordingly.
