[PATCH 1/7] x86/platform/intel/iosf_mbi: Add a mutex for punit access

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

 



One some systems the punit accesses the pmic to change various voltages
through the same bus as other kernel drivers use for e.g. battery
monitoring.

If a driver sends requests to the punit which require the punit to access
the pmic bus while another driver is also accessing the pmic bus various
bad things happen.

This commit adds a mutex to protect the punit against simultaneous accesses
and 2 functions to lock / unlock this mutex.

Note on these systems the i2c-bus driver will request a sempahore from the
punit for exclusive access to the pmic bus when i2c drivers are accessing
it, but this does not appear to be sufficient, we still need to avoid
making certain punit requests during the access window to avoid problems.
