The idle state is a property of the mux-control itself, and not the business of any particular consumer. Consumers can only say what state the mux control should have when they have selected the mux-control, and have no say about what state the mux-control has when they do not have it selected. There is no conflict with having the same idle state as the state the mux would normally have. That could even be seen as an optimization, since then there might be no need to operate the mux for most accesses. > + } > + > return &mux_chip->mux[controller]; > } > EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(mux_control_get); > diff --git a/include/linux/mux/consumer.h b/include/linux/mux/consumer.h > index 7a09b040ac39..cb861eab8aad 100644 > --- a/include/linux/mux/consumer.h > +++ b/include/linux/mux/consumer.h > @@ -16,6 +16,7 @@ struct device; > struct mux_control; > > unsigned int mux_control_states(struct mux_control *mux); > +unsigned int mux_control_enable_state(struct mux_control *mux); > int __must_check mux_control_select_delay(struct mux_control *mux, > unsigned int state, > unsigned int delay_us); > diff --git a/include/linux/mux/driver.h b/include/linux/mux/driver.h > index 18824064f8c0..7db378dabdb2 100644 > --- a/include/linux/mux/driver.h > +++ b/include/linux/mux/driver.h > @@ -48,6 +48,7 @@ struct mux_control { > int cached_state; > > unsigned int states; > + unsigned int enable_state; This is the wrong place to store the state you need. The mux_control is a shared resource and can have many consumers. Storing the needed value for exactly one consumer in the mux control is therefore broken. It would get overwritten when consumer #2 (and 3 etc etc) wants to use some other state from the same shared mux control. Doing this properly means that you need a new struct tying together a mux-control and a state. With an API looking something like this: struct mux_state { struct mux_control *mux; unsigned int state; }; struct mux_state *mux_state_get(struct device *dev, const char *mux_name) { struct mux_state *mux_state = kzalloc(sizeof(*mux_state), GFP_KERNEL); if (!mux_state) return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM); mux_state->mux = ...; /* mux_control_get(...) perhaps? */ /* error checking and recovery, etc etc etc */ mux_state->state = ...; return mux_state; } void mux_state_put(struct mux_state *mux_state) { mux_control_put(mux_state->mux); free(mux_state); } int mux_state_select_delay(struct mux_state *mux_state, unsigned int delay_us) { return mux_control_select_delay(mux_state->mux, mux_state->state, delay_us); } int mux_state_select(struct mux_state *mux_state) { return mux_state_select_delay(mux_state, 0); } int mux_state_try_select_delay(struct mux_state *mux_state) unsigned int delay_us); { return mux_control_try_select_delay(mux_state->mux, mux_state->state, delay_us); } int mux_state_try_select(struct mux_state *mux_state) { return mux_state_try_select_delay(mux_state, 0); } int mux_state_deselect(struct mux_control *mux) { return mux_control_deselect(mux_state->mux); } (written directly in the mail client, never compiled, here be dragons) mux_state_get is obviously the difficult function to write, and the above call to mux_control_get is not appropriate as-is. I think mux_control_get perhaps needs to be refactored into a flexible helper that takes a couple of extra arguments that indicate if you want an optional get and/or a particular state. And then mux_control_get can just be a wrapper around that helper. Adding mux_control_get_optional would be a matter of adding a new wrapper. And the mux_state->mux assignment above would need yet another wrapper for the flexible helper, one that also make the flexible helper return the requested state from the mux-control property. I realize that this might be a big piece to chew, but you want to do something new here, and I think it is best to do it right from the start instead of having weird code that only makes it harder to do it right later. Ad it's not that complicated. Cheers, Peter > int idle_state; > > ktime_t last_change; >
