I tested various development board based on Samsung Exynos series SoC.
Although some gpio of Exynos series SoC set high state(non zero, 1) as default value,
this gpio state could mean off state, disconnected or un-powered state according to gpio.
Of course, above explanation about specific gpio don't include all gpios.
This is meaning that there is possibility.
okay then how about adding a flag for inverted logic too. something like this
if(of_property_read_bool(np,"inverted_gpio))
gpio_usbvid->gpio_inv = 1;
And always check on this before deciding?
Is this fine ?
OK.
But, as Stephen commented on other mail, you should use proper DT helper function.
okay
Second,
gpio_usbvid_set_initial_state() dertermine both "USB-HOST" and "USB" cable state at same time
in 'case ID_DETCT' according to 'gpio_usbvid->id_gpio'. But, I think that other extcon devices
would not control both "USB-HOST" and "USB" cable state at same time.
Other extcon devices would support either "USB-HOST" or "USB" cable.
The driver has 2 configurations.
1) supports implementations with both VBUS and ID pin are routed via gpio's for swicthing roles(compatible gpio-usb-vid).
As you explained about case 1, it is only used on dra7x SoC.
No gpio-usb-id is used in dra7xx. dra7xx has got only ID pin routed via gpio.
Other SoC could not wish to control both "USB-HOST" and "USB" cable at same time.
I could'nt actually parse this. You meant since the id_irq_handler handles both USB and USB-HOST cable
its not proper?
It's not proper in general case. The generic driver must guarantee all of extcon device using gpio.
As far as I know, the generic driver cannot direclty control gpio pin and get value from gpio pin.
Almost device driver including in kernel/drivers control gpio pin on specific device driver
instead of generic driver.
But without reading the gpio value how can we set the cable states? for this driver the assumption is the dedicated gpio
is always DIR_IN and in the driver we just read the value.
I need your answer about above my opinion for other SoC.
So how about this, I have removed the dra7x specific stuffs (gpio-usb-id)
static void gpio_usbvid_set_initial_state(struct gpio_usbvid *gpio_usbvid)
{
int id_current, vbus_current;
id_current = gpio_get_value_cansleep(gpio_usbvid->id_gpio);
if (!!id_current == ID_FLOAT)
extcon_set_cable_state(&gpio_usbvid->edev, "USB-HOST", false);
else
extcon_set_cable_state(&gpio_usbvid->edev, "USB-HOST", true);
vbus_current = gpio_get_value_cansleep(gpio_usbvid->vbus_gpio);
if (!!vbus_current == VBUS_ON)
extcon_set_cable_state(&gpio_usbvid->edev, "USB", true);
else
extcon_set_cable_state(&gpio_usbvid->edev, "USB", false);
}
and the irq handlers like this
static irqreturn_t id_irq_handler(int irq, void *data)
{
struct gpio_usbvid *gpio_usbvid = (struct gpio_usbvid *)data;
int id_current;
id_current = gpio_get_value_cansleep(gpio_usbvid->id_gpio);
if (id_current == ID_GND)
extcon_set_cable_state(&gpio_usbvid->edev, "USB-HOST", true);
else
extcon_set_cable_state(&gpio_usbvid->edev, "USB-HOST", false);
return IRQ_HANDLED;
}
static irqreturn_t vbus_irq_handler(int irq, void *data)
{
struct gpio_usbvid *gpio_usbvid = (struct gpio_usbvid *)data;
int vbus_current;
vbus_current = gpio_get_value_cansleep(gpio_usbvid->vbus_gpio);
if (vbus_current == VBUS_OFF)
extcon_set_cable_state(&gpio_usbvid->edev, "USB", false);
else
extcon_set_cable_state(&gpio_usbvid->edev, "USB", true);
return IRQ_HANDLED;
}
I know your intention dividing interrupt handler for each cable.
But I don't think this driver must guarantee all of extcon device using gpio.
For example,
below three SoC wish to detect USB/USB-HOST cable with each different methods.
"SoC A" wish to detect USB/USB-HOST cable through only one gpio pin.
You mean to say that both USB ID pin and VBUS are connected to same gpio?
If so that is a really bad h/w design and it will not fly.
Or, you meant that only USB ID pin is connected to single gpio and it controls the state of the USB/USB-HOST cables?
If so thats what exactly the v3 driver did with compatible gpio-usb-id.
My original question intention,
I'd like you to answer that this driver can support all case of "SoC A"/"SoC B"/"SoC C" without othe implementation?
Definitely supports SoC A and SoC C. this is neither a generic extcon
driver nor a generic gpio driver.
This is a generic driver for USB VBUS-ID detection connected via gpios.
so doesnot address ADC (SOC B)
"SoC B" wish to detect USB/USB-HOST cable through ADC value instead of gpio pin.
Via ADC this driver should never be used , it should be extcon-adc-usbvid driver and not extcon-gpio-usbvid driver.
No, we cannot implement many generic extcon device driver whenever this is the case.
then how can I make this one generic? Pointers?
"SoC C" wish to detect USB/USB-HOST cable through two gpio pin because USB connected on gpio an USB-HOST connected on another.
Whatever modifications above should meet this need in combination with named gpios (id_gpio and vbus_gpio in dt)as stephen pointed.
But still i feel the above modification would even support Soc A provided the code registered for the notifier could handle it properly.
I'd like you to answer that this driver can support all case of "SoC A"/"SoC B"/"SoC C"?
Answered above.
If we should implement extcon device driver according each case,
Could you tell me that this driver is generic? I think NO.
If for each case separate extcon driver, then its not generic. But How
would I make one or how can I modify this one to be more generic?
In addition,
if "SoC A/C" wish to write some data to own specific registers for proper opeating,
Could we write some data to register on generic driver?
Yes definitely, those register configuration should not be part of this driver and it should be done in the notifier handler.
No. there are many extcon consumer driver. We cannot order the sequence of notification reception among all of extcon consumer driver.
Only, extcon consumer driver get the changed state of cable and can never set cable H/W setting in extcon consumer driver.
Certainly, we have to set cabe H/W setting in extcon producer driver.
I dont want the consumer driver to change the cable state. I wanted to
mention that the cable state change might need a register write specifc
to the H/W which could be done
in consumers call back.
For eg:- When the USB cable is connected I need to set the UTMI config
register to Peripheral mode and when USB-HOST is connected the same need
to be set to HOST mode, these writes will be done
in the call back functions.
Finally,
"SoC D" wish to detect USB/USB-HOST/JIG cable through two gpio pin
Correct me If I am wrong, USB JIG is not a standard cable. so for supporting that anyways you need to have
a different driver.
No, we cannot guarantee that some cable would be connected to SoC.
If this dirver is generic, it have to certainly support above all case in this driver.
okay, but at the same time there are tons of devices running linux which
doesnot support USB JIG cable.
Are those all attributed to linux and its drivers?
- one gpio may detect either USB or USB-HOST and another may detect JIG cable
I assume u meant the USB ID pin is connected to one gpio and based on it value USB/USB-HOST is detected.
or one gpio may detect either USb or JIG and another may detect USB-HOST cable.
As I mentioned earlier these are gpios configured as input and if you try to drive with 2 sources (USB and JIG or USB and USB-HOST etc)
then its a potentially bad design . If at all we need to identify all 3 then there should be 3 dedicated gpios.
That way, there are many cases we cannot guarantee all of extcon devices.
I think this driver could support dra7x series SoC but as I mentioned,
this driver may not guarantee all of cases.
I am sorry, I feel it supports all standard cases except for something like a JIG cable which is not standard.
I've never seen spec documentation that USB/USB-HOST cable have to be only connected to SoC.
As I mentioned above, there are many cases we cannot think about various extcon devices.
Okay but we have to start with some known working combinations and then
increase the number of stuffs supported.
[snip]
I have some confusion. I need additional your explanation.
Could this driver register only one interrupt handler either id_irq_handler() or vbus_irq_handler()?
If compatible == ID_DETECT, only one handler --> id_irq_handler() and it will handle both USB and USB-HOST
or
Could this driver register two interrupt handler both id_irq_handler() or vbus_irq_handler()?
If compatible == VBUS_ID_DETECT, 2 handlers --> id_irq_handler() will handle USB-HOST and vbus_irq_handler will handle USB.
As you mentioned, we cannot only control either USB or USB-HOST cable on this extcon driver.
This extcon driver is only suitable dra7x SoC.
Do you still feel its dra7x specific if i modify it as above?
I commented above about your modification.
Because id_irq_handler() control both "USB-HOST" and "USB" cable at same time,
you need this setting order between "USB-HOST" and "USB" cable.
yes
I think that the setting order between cables isn't general. It is specific method for dra7x SoC.
So if i remove that part then?
The setting order should be removed in generic driver.
Yes I agree and should be done by the subscriber to the notifier.
OK.
Did you think that SoC should always connect either "USB-HOST" cable or "USB" cable?
No, even if a physical cable is not connected it should default to either USB-HOST or USB
It isn't general.
If physical cable isn't connected to extcon device, the state both USB-HOST and USB cable
should certainly be zero. Because The extcon consumer driver could set proper operation
according to cable state.
okay
I don't know this case except for dra7x SoC. So, I think it has dependency on specific SoC.
I need your answer about above my opinion.
Hope i could answer you :-)
and can't agree as generic extcon gpio driver.
