oh, Sorry missed your e-mail.
static int pcf857x_irq_set_wake(struct irq_data *data, unsigned int on)
{
...
error = irq_set_irq_wake(gpio->irq_parent, on);
|-irq_get_desc_buslock
|- chip_bus_lock
|- irq_pm_get
|- agic/zynq - pm_runtime_get_sync()
|- might_sleep_if(!(rpmflags & RPM_ASYNC) && !dev->power.irq_safe);
- same for put
As result, it will be mandatory to define irq_safe = true, but in this case it will be
impossible to use clk_prepare_enable()/unprepare() in PM runtime callbacks, for example.
Also, discussed approach will work for all only if it will be guaranteed that
irq_pm_get/put() will be called only once, like PM runtime API. Otherwise
it will be very hard to reuse them for chips which do not use PM runtime
for PM management - those chips will need to implement own counters to
avoid re-enabling/disabling of an already active/inactive devices.
So, decision has to be made - will irqchip PM management be PM runtime based only or not?
- if it will be PM runtime based only (agic/zynq):
- there are should be device always
- PM runtime API can be called where needed directly -> no new callbacks.
- if not:
- some additional sync/protection will need to be added to irqchip
In addition, we seems missed irq_set_chained_handler*() :( - It do not call
__setup_irq().
