I will try to debug it a bit more today.
The above crash has been caused by lack of in_bridge initialization to

This means that dsi->encoder.dev is not initialized in
__exynos_dsi_host_attach().
This happens, because drm_bridge_attach() in exynos_dsi_bind() returned
earlier -517 (deferred probe), what causes cleanup of encoder and
release of all drm resources.
Then however, the panel tries to register itself and
exynos_dsi_host_attach() tries to access the released encoder (which is
zeroed in drm_encoder_release) and rest of resources, what causes
failure.
It looks that something is missing. Maybe mipi host has to be
registered
later, when bridge is ready? I have no idea how it is handled before
this patch. Andrzej, could you comment it a bit?
I intentionally changed the order, because if another bridge follows
in the
pipeline, the probe of the drm driver has to be deferred until some
bridge
provides a connector. The next bridge registers itself via the
host_attach
function and the deferral is ensured via the bind for the bind/unbind
API or
the bridge_attach function otherwise.
On the other hand, the bridge does not have an encoder until the mipi
device
has been attached.
As a solution, the exynos dsi driver must initialize the encoder in
exynos_dsi_probe instead of in exynos_dsi_bind and access the encoder
via
exynos_dsi instead of the bridge.
Can you try to move everything except samsung_dsim_bind from
exynos_dsi_bind
to exynos_dsi_probe (respectively for unbind) and report if it fixes the
crash.
The original behaviour is that encoder (exynos_dsi) is registered
regardless of sink presence (initially panel, later also bridge) - it
avoids multiple issues with deferred probe, device driver bind/unbind
and module load/unload. Appearance or disappearance of sink is
reported to host nicely via DSI attach/detach callbacks - and it is
reflected in drm world as change state of the connector.
Registering DSI host in bind and unregistering in unbind assures that
if mipi_dsi device is attached/detached the drm device is always
present - it makes device/driver binding race free and allows to avoid
additional locking.
Moving DSI host registration to probe changes everything, for sure it
breaks the nice feature of DSI attach/detach callbacks and apparently
can cause different issues depending on device bind order.
I will try to look at the patches tomorrow and maybe I can find more
constructive comments :)
As I said yesterday, exynos_dsi driver uses dsi host attach/detach
callbacks to control appearance/disappearance of downstream device. It
allows to:
1. Safely bind/unbind different device drivers at any time and at any
order, without killing exynos_drm and/or crashing system.
2. Avoid issues with late drm init - on some platforms exynos_drm device
appeared too late, due to deferred probe, and resulted in black screen
in userspace.
Now if we want to convert exynos_dsi to drm_bridge I see following options:
A. Forgot about callbacks and make the exynos_drm to defer probing until
exynos_dsi bridge is available, probably it will cause later exynos_drm
appearance, thus probably black screen on some targets. So for sure it
will be suboptimal. Making it bridge unbind safe would be another
problem, but most developers do not care about it so why should we? :)
B. Try to mimic current behaviour - exynos_dsi register bridge ASAP,
even if downstream devices are not yet attached, on attach/detach notify
drm about it via connector status change, for this dsi_host registration
should be performed from drm_bridge attach, I guess.
Option A is more standard, but is unsafe and causes other issues.
Option B keeps current behaviour.
Maybe we can have both, but I am not sure, if I am missing something:
I still prefer option A for the samsung-dsim driver, because it is more
standard, simpler and avoids issues with encoders, connectors or handling
hotplug.
The idea is to use two bridges in the exynos-dsi driver: One bridge in the
samsung-dsim driver which implements option A and defers probing of the drm
driver until the next bridge is attached. And a second bridge in the
exynos_dsi that attaches to the first bridge (thus, allowing the exynos_drm
device to appear) and implements the hotplug handling for notifying drm via
connector status change.
The driver for the i.MX8M would use the samsung-dsim bridge without an
additional bridge.
This allows the samsung-dsim driver to expose the standard behavior while the
exynos_dsi may stick to the existing behavior for the exynos_drm driver.
I hope this makes sense and does not sound too crazy. It might be difficult to
get the probing and mipi host/device registration correct, but I will try, if
this can work.
Adding two bridges for being able to support hotplugging adds many special
cases to the bridge driver and still requires more custom API to correctly add
the second bridge. I don't think that this a viable path to go.
Just jumping in here: You cannot hotplug/hotremove anything from a
drm_device after drm_dev_register has been called, except
drm_connector. I didn't dig into details here so not sure whether you
want to late-bind your bridge after drm_dev_register is called or not,
so might just be fyi and not relevant to the discussion.
Thanks. AFAIC that is exactly what is currently implemented in the exynos_drm
driver (i.e. Option B)
exynos_dsi_bind configures the encoder and registers a DSI host. Afterwards,
exynos_drm_bind (as component_master_ops) calls drm_dev_register. Later, a DSI
device might attach to the DSI host and call exynos_dsi_host_attach. In
exynos_dsi_host_attach, the driver finds the drm_bridge for the DSI device and
attaches this bridge to the encoder _after_ drm_dev_register has been called.
This is invalid behavior, right?
Definitely not supported, I don't think we have the right locks in place
to make sure this works.
Now if your _only_ adding a drm_bridge (and not an encoder or anything
like that), and you are adding the drm_connector correctly (like a
hotplugged DP MST sink), then that would at least work from a uapi pov.
Because drm_bridge isn't exposed as an uapi object.
But yeah, as-is, don't :-)
The solution here is a bunch of EPROBE_DEFER handling until all your
bridges are loaded, with or without the assistance of component.c
framework. Only then call drm_dev_register.
I have impression we have similar conversation already.
As you stated drm_bridge and drm_panel are not exposed to userspace so
there shouldn't be problem with them from uapi PoV.
On the other side drm_panel or drm_bridge are not used until pipeline
enters connected state (at least they were not some time ago :) ). The
issue is that bridge exposes drm_connector, but as you stated (again :)
) connectors can be hotplugged, so in theory it should work. Practical
tests shows that it also works, but bugs can be still there.
Bunch of EPROBE_DEFER was very slow (as a result userspace timeouted and
decided there is no display), and does not handle unbinding/re-binding
drivers.
Rebinding drivers should be fixed now, with a bunch of fixes in driver
core. If not, we need to fix this more.
Also, EPROBE_DEFER is how this is supposed to work. If it's too slow,
we need to fix EPROBE_DEFER (there's ideas for pre-sorting that never
seem to go anywhere), not paper over it with bad architecture in
drivers.
I've heard this argument multiple times, but it sounds more like an
attempt to ignore the problem and hope it will fall on someone else's
plate :-) Improvement in the probe deferral mechanism are certainly an
option to explore, but as far as I can tell nobody has proven that this
mechanism is or will be able to solve all problems related to probe
ordering dependencies. I wouldn't rule out the need for different
solutions for some of the issues.
Then build another one. But adding hotplug for stuff that is there,
and shouldn't be hotplugged, just because it's easier on driver
writers and harder on userspace isn't really a good approach.
-Daniel
I think it is quite clear that replacing or reworking the deferral
mechanism is out of scope for this discussion, which is why I would like
to come back to the original issue and sum this up as far as I
understand it (which is not really far when it comes to the details):
We have the existing exynos driver that avoids the standard deferral
mechanism in favor of something that works but Daniel describes as
"definitely not supported".
We have a proposal from Michael for converting the driver to the
standard drm_bridge behavior and more work from Michael and Marek based
on this to implement the platform specific parts for i.MX8MM.
From the i.MX8MM POV this approach already received some testing and
looks good as far as I can judge. Upstreaming this solution is blocked
because of objections from the Samsung maintainers.
Sorry if I'm being blunt or naive, but where to go from here?
