Hi,

Thank you for your patch series.

Full review done, I have a couple of minor review remarks inline below.

Note these are really all suggestions and not must fix for this to
be merged items.

Thank you! I will try to address and fix them.

You write "e.g. via ``nf->lock``", are any other locking strategies used
in the other patches ?  If not then it might be good to change this to just
stating that nf->lock must be held and adding an assert for that. I would
prefer a clear set of locking rules like this over rules like:
"must be synchronized ...".

There are no other locking strategies here. I've worded it this way as
"nf->lock" is mainly intended to synchronize the enable requests and is
just by extension also used to synchronize this (i.e. the lock is on a
different abstraction layer). I agree that for clarity it makes sense to
directly specify "nf->lock", so I will re-write this to just say that
"nf->lock" must be held.
Note I am naively assuming here that it is possible to come up with such a
clear set of locking rules, I'm not sure if that is the case.

Note in case it is possible to always take nf->lock but you are not doing
so in some places because of performance concerns then I would prefer to
move to a model where the caller simply always takes nf->lock. AFAICT non
of the events/data going through the SSH are high frequency (iow
none of them occur at a high rate of see 50 times / second or more) so
I don't think that we need to focus too much on optimizing things for
speed.

The registration/deregistration functions are all synchronized via
"nf->lock". I also don't consider that path critical. Event handling
(i.e. the actual critical path) is done via a RCU list (reasoning behind
that is mostly for touchpad input events).

So we hit this only if entry->refcount == INT_MAX, right?

That seems like something which should never happen, right?

So maybe add a:

here?

Yes and yes. That seems like a good idea, I'll do that.

Maybe use "else if" here so that on an error we don't emit both the error

Is this expected on some models?

It is, yes. Specifically: Older models don't have that, newer do.

If yes then maybe add a comment.

Right. I'll have to look at the DSDTs to check in which generation
specifically that _DSM was introduced and add that as a comment.

If not then I think this can be dropped as acpi_evaluate_dsm_typed()
will then error out with -EIO which seems better then return 0

This exit path leaves *ret uninitialized, looking at the usage if this
function I see that this is intentional, but it did stood out to me, so maybe
add a comment like this ? :

Again you are being a bit hand-wavy (I assume you know what I mean by that)
wrt the locking requirements. If possible I would prefer clearly spelled out
locking requirements in the form of "this and that lock must be held when
calling this function". Preferably backed-up by lockdep_assert-s asserting
these conditions.

The reason for this is that this function specifically is currently only
called during initialization, when the controller has not been published
yet, i.e. when we have an exclusive reference to the controller.

I'll change this to fully enforce locking (with lockdep_assert).

And maybe if you are a bit stricter with always holding the lock when
calling this, you can also drop the WRITE_ONCE and the comment about it
(in all places where you do this).

The WRITE_ONCE is only there to ensure that the basic test in
ssam_request_sync_submit() can be done. I always try to be explicit
about access that can happen without the respective locks being held.

Unfortunately it's not feasible to hold the reader lock in
ssam_request_sync_submit() due to reentrancy. Specifically, as the lock,
if at all (i.e. if this is not a client driver bound to the controller),
must be held not only during submission but until the request has been
completed. Note that if we would hold the lock during submission, this
is just a smoke-test.

Note, that like my remarks around the locking docs for
ssam_nf_refcount_inc() this assumes that it is possible to come
up with such a clear set of locking rules.  If that for some reason
is not straight forwardd, then maybe add some docs documenting the
locking expectations somewhere instead ?

It's possible to fully enforce this here, so I'll do that.

Snipped because nothing stood out in the rest of this patch.

Phew that was one large patch to review. I've run out of review
bandwidth for today, so I will review the rest of the series
later (probably coming Thursday).

I'm sorry about the size of this. I've tried to split out as much as
possible (caching, tracing, error injection) but couldn't get it smaller
than this while also having something functional.

Please do review this at your own pace. There is no need to hurry.

Thank you for your review!

Max
