I've tested this patch on TI 3.14-rt kernel, but I still can see bunch
of "inconsistent lock state" warnings related to the PM runtime (as expected
and as you mentioned in commit log actually).
The problem here is that OMAPs code implemented using PM runtime based
approach and PM runtime is used everywhere. We don't see warnings form
other drivers just because their HW IRQ handlers forced to be threaded, but
that's not the case for OMAP GPIO :(
PM runtime for OMAP GPIO is implemented in irq_safe manner and it works for
non-RT case, but the main question here - How can we proceed for -RT case?
May be you have some thought?
>From my side what I've tried or thought about:
1) OMAP HW IRQ handler can be transformed to threaded IRQ on -RT.
Can it be acceptable?
2) I've tried to use irq_chip->irq_bus_lock/irq_bus_sync_unlock() callbacks.
It helps a bit, but there are two problems:
- These callbacks are not expected to fail;
- PM runtime calls are still present in omap_gpio_irq_handler().
Hypothetically, they can be removed, but we'd need to ensure that OMAP GPIO HW
is powered and ready to process IRQs all the time while GPIO bank IRQ is in use.
Not trivial thing to do taking into account multi-SoC support, suspend, cpuidle :(
[code provided just to illustrate idea]
static void omap_gpio_irq_bus_lock(struct irq_data *data)
{
struct gpio_bank *bank = irq_data_get_irq_chip_data(data);
if (!BANK_USED(bank))
pm_runtime_get_sync(bank->dev);
}
static void gpio_irq_bus_sync_unlock(struct irq_data *data)
{
struct gpio_bank *bank = irq_data_get_irq_chip_data(data);
if (!BANK_USED(bank))
pm_runtime_put(bank->dev);
}
I would be appreciated for any comments on this (1 or 2 or ..), thanks.
