[PATCH v3 00/20] power_supply: Allow safe usage of power supply

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

 



Hi,

The patchset changes power supply API and drivers implementing
power supply class.


TLDR for driver and subsystem maintainers
=========================================
Two patches of patchset change power_supply_register() function so in
the same time they touch all drivers. I am kindly asking for acks,
review and help in testing.

Please look at:
 - patch 2: power_supply: Move run-time configuration to separate structure
 - patch 11: power_supply: Change ownership from driver to core

These are huge.


Introduction
============
Patchset tries to fix following race scenario:

Thread 1: charger manager, CONSUMER
Thread 2: power supply driver, PROVIDER

THREAD 1 (charger manager)         THREAD 2 (power supply driver)
==========================         ==============================
psy = power_supply_get_by_name()
                                   Driver unbind, .remove
                                     power_supply_unregister()
                                     Device fully removed
psy->get_property()

To properly fix the race the patchset:
1. Moves ownership of power_supply structure from driver (provider) to
   power supply core.
2. Adds power_supply_get_property()-like API for safe access by consumer.
3. Adds power_supply_put() which will reclaim memory.


Description
=========== 
The patchset is quite big and touches power supply API so a lot of
changes in drivers are needed.

I modifed all drivers I found. However I only compile tested them
(plus Smatch, Sparse and coccicheck). I did not test them on real
hardware (except max14577, max77693, max17040, max17042
and charger-manager).

This is a little different than my previous approaches [1][2] for fixing
usage of power supply by some consumer, if driver implementing it is
unbound.

My previous approach [1][2] limited the race but did not close it.
Still the consumer of power supply by calling power_supply_get_propert(psy...)
may reference invalid memory because the producer freed it.

Actually, because struct power_supply is exposed to consumers, the
core should be the owner of it. This is accomplished in patch 11/20
("power_supply: Change ownership from driver to core").


What the patchset does in steps
===============================
1. Some preparation steps are necessary - patch 1 and 2. The driver
   implementing power supply won't be able to fill structure before
   calling power_supply_register(). So 'power_supply_config'
   is introduced in patch 2 ("power_supply: Move run-time configuration
   to separate structure"). Unfortunately this touches all drivers.
   *All drivers touched.*

2. Safe API wrappers (and usage counter) are added (power_supply_*()).

3. Patch 11: ownership of 'struct power_supply' is moved from driver
   to the core.
   *All drivers touched.*

4. power_supply_put() is added which reclaims resources.


The patchset is rebased on next-20150129. Bisectability is preserved.
All later patches depend on previous ones so it could be pulled in
steps, but cherry-picking won't work.

Changes since v2
================
1. Rewrite all drivers to new power_supply_register().
2. Add reviewed-by Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz (internal review)
3. Add reviewed-by Sebastian Reichel [3] (to patches which I did not
   change in major way between v2 and v3).
4. Use atomic usage counter of power supply on each of:
   a. register/unregister,
   b. get/put.

Changes since v1
================
1. Add new patches (1, 2, 11, 19).
2. Preserved ack-s where there weren't any changes.
3. Patch 3: Add use counter.
4. Patch 3: Don't add wrapper for set_charged() because already exists
   one.
