v6 cover Improve pwm-ir-tx precision

The pwm-ir-tx driver has to turn the pwm signal on and off, and suffers from delays as this is done in process context. Make this work in atomic context.

changes:

v6:
- Rename pwm_apply_cansleep() to pwm_apply_might_sleep()
- rebase

v5:
- Use dev_err_probe() as Uwe suggested
- rebase

v4:
- Split out the pwm_apply_state() rename into seperate commit
- Atomic pwm function is called pwm_apply_atomic() and sleeping counterpart pwm_apply_cansleep()
- Fix commit messages

v3:
- Renamed pwm_apply_state() to pwm_apply_cansleep()
- Moved pwm atomic to struct pwm_chip
- Fixed pwm docs
- Other minor code review comments

v2:
- Simplified the pwm ir tx based on Ivaylo Dimitrov suggestions
- Renamed pwm_can_sleep() to pwm_is_atomic
- Fix sleeping issue in pwm-bcm2835 (clk_get_rate() can sleep)
- use non_block_start() in pwm to check atomic-ness

Sean Young (4):
pwm: rename pwm_apply_state() to pwm_apply_might_sleep()
pwm: make it possible to apply pwm changes in atomic context
pwm: bcm2835: allow pwm driver to be used in atomic context
media: pwm-ir-tx: trigger edges from hrtimer interrupt context

PATCH v6 1/4 pwm: rename pwm_apply_state() to pwm_apply_might_sleep()

In order to introduce a pwm api which can be used from atomic context, we will need two functions for applying pwm changes:

	int pwm_apply_might_sleep(struct pwm *, struct pwm_state *);
	int pwm_apply_atomic(struct pwm *, struct pwm_state *);

This commit just deals with renaming pwm_apply_state(), a following commit will introduce the pwm_apply_atomic() function.

In order to introduce a pwm api which can be used from atomic context, we will need two functions for applying pwm changes:

	int pwm_apply_might_sleep(struct pwm *, struct pwm_state *);
	int pwm_apply_atomic(struct pwm *, struct pwm_state *);

This commit just deals with renaming pwm_apply_state(), a following commit will introduce the pwm_apply_atomic() function.

Not a in-detail-review, but I just noticed again, that we have

PATCH v6 2/4 pwm: make it possible to apply pwm changes in atomic context

In reply to Sean Young

Some pwm devices require sleeping, for example if the pwm device is connected over i2c. However, many pwm devices could be used from atomic context, e.g. memmory mapped pwm. This is useful for, for example, the pwm-ir-tx driver which requires precise timing. Sleeping causes havoc with the generated IR signal.

Since not all pmw devices can support atomic context, we also add a pwm_is_atomic() function to check if it is supported.

This is now going to look a bit odd. I think it'd be best to change this to pwm_might_sleep() for consistency with the pwm_apply_might_sleep() function. Fine to keep the actual member variable as atomic, though, so we don't have to change the default for all drivers.

Re: [PATCH v6 2/4] pwm: make it possible to apply pwm changes in atomic context

Hi Thierry,

Quoted 11 lines · Thierry Reding
Quoted 8 lines · Sean Young

Some pwm devices require sleeping, for example if the pwm device is connected over i2c. However, many pwm devices could be used from atomic context, e.g. memmory mapped pwm. This is useful for, for example, the pwm-ir-tx driver which requires precise timing. Sleeping causes havoc with the generated IR signal.

Since not all pmw devices can support atomic context, we also add a pwm_is_atomic() function to check if it is supported.

s/i2c/I2C/ and s/pwm/PWM/ in the above. Also, s/memmory/memory/

Thanks for your detailed review. I agree with all your points, they are all nice improvements. Just a question at the bottom:

This is now going to look a bit odd. I think it'd be best to change this to pwm_might_sleep() for consistency with the pwm_apply_might_sleep() function. Fine to keep the actual member variable as atomic, though, so we don't have to change the default for all drivers.

Agreed, I was struggling with finding good name and yours is much better, thanks.

What's wrong with ENOTSUPP?

This was found by checkpatch, see

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/scripts/checkpatch.pl#L4891-L4892

# ENOTSUPP is not a standard error code and should be avoided in new patches. # Folks usually mean EOPNOTSUPP (also called ENOTSUP), when they type ENOTSUPP.

ENOTSUPP is not really widely used in the tree.

So it was really done to keep checkpatch happy, please let me know what you would like me to do here.

Thanks,

I'm not fine with a lowercase "pwm" in what is clearly text. Text should be grammatically correct and PWM being an abbreviation it should be all caps. The framework name is also PWM, not pwm. We use the lowercase pwm as prefix because it represents the directory where the subsystem lives and we usually don't use capitalization in file and directory names.

uint is rather rare. Or so I thought. There seem to be quite a few occurrences throughout the kernel. I'd still prefer unsigned int over this abbreviated form, but ultimately up to you and Mauro to decide.

s/tx/TX and s/pwm/PWM/? Also, I'm a bit unhappy about "atomic mode" here because the term is overloaded in PWM. If you call pwm_appy_*() then by definition it's going to be "atomic" in the "atomic state" sense. So maybe switch to something like:

"TX will not be accurate as PWM device might sleep"

?

Re: [PATCH v6 4/4] media: pwm-ir-tx: trigger edges from hrtimer interrupt context

This makes the generated IR much more precise. Before this change, the driver is unreliable and many users opted to use gpio-ir-tx instead.

Ah nice, I usually forget const.

Yes, unsigned int is used a lot more. Changed.

"TX will not be accurate as PWM device might sleep"

?

Very nice, changed.
