[RFC PATCH 1/6] drm/dp: Helpers to make it easier for drivers to use DP AUX bus properly

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As talked about in the kerneldoc for "struct dp_aux_ep_client" in this
patch and also in the past in commit a1e3667a9835 ("drm/bridge:
ti-sn65dsi86: Promote the AUX channel to its own sub-dev"), to use the
DP AUX bus properly we really need two "struct device"s. One "struct
device" is in charge of providing the DP AUX bus and the other is
where we'll try to get a reference to the newly probed endpoint
devices.

In ti-sn65dsi86 this wasn't too difficult to accomplish. That driver
is already broken up into several "struct devices" anyway because it
also provides a PWM and some GPIOs. Adding one more wasn't that
difficult / ugly.

When I tried to do the same solution in parade-ps8640, it felt like I
was copying too much boilerplate code. I made the realization that I
didn't _really_ need a separate "driver" for each person that wanted
to do the same thing. By putting all the "driver" related code in a
common place then we could save a bit of hassle. This change
effectively adds a new "ep_client" driver that can be used by
anyone. The devices instantiated by this driver will just call through
to the probe/remove/shutdown calls provided.

At the moment, the "ep_client" driver is backed by the Linux auxiliary
bus (unfortunate naming--this has nothing to do with DP AUX). I didn't
want to expose this to clients, though, so as far as clients are
concerned they get a vanilla "struct device".

+/**
+ * struct dp_aux_ep_device - Helper for clients of DP AUX EP devices
+ *
+ * The DP AUX bus can be a bit tricky to use properly. Usually, the way
+ * things work is that:
+ * - The DP controller driver provides the DP AUX bus and would like to probe
+ *   the endpoints on the DP AUX bus (AKA the panel) as part of its probe
+ *   routine.
+ * - The DP controller driver would also like to acquire a reference to the
+ *   DP AUX endpoints (AKA the panel) as part of its probe.
+ *
+ * The problem is that the DP AUX endpoints aren't guaranteed to complete their
+ * probe right away. They could be probing asynchronously or they simply might
+ * fail to acquire some resource and return -EPROBE_DEFER.
+ *
+ * The best way to solve this is to break the DP controller's probe into
+ * two parts. The first part will create the DP AUX bus. The second part will
+ * acquire the reference to the DP AUX endpoint. The first part can complete
+ * finish with no problems and be "done" even if the second part ends up
+ * deferring while waiting for the DP AUX endpoint.
+ *
+ * The dp_aux_ep_client structure and associated functions help with managing
+ * this common case. They will create/add a second "struct device" for you.
+ * In the probe for this second "struct device" (known as the "clientdev" here)
+ * you can acquire references to the AUX DP endpoints and can freely return
+ * -EPROBE_DEFER if they're not ready yet.
+ *
+ * A few notes:
+ * - The parent of the clientdev is guaranteed to be aux->dev
+ * - The of_node of the clientdev is guaranteed to be the same as the of_node
+ *   of aux->dev, copied with device_set_of_node_from_dev().
+ * - If you're doing "devm" type things in the clientdev's probe you should
+ *   use the clientdev. This makes lifetimes be managed properly.
+ *
+ * NOTE: there's no requirement to use these helpers if you have solved the
+ * problem described above in some other way.
