Subject: [PATCH v5 2/2] Add PWM fan controller driver for LGM SoC

Intel Lightning Mountain(LGM) SoC contains a PWM fan controller.
This PWM controller does not have any other consumer, it is a
dedicated PWM controller for fan attached to the system. Add
driver for this PWM fan controller.

At least for state->polarity you have to check before state->enabled, as
the expectation on

.enabled = false
.polarity = PWM_POLARITY_INVERSED

is that the output becomes constant high. Also as confirmed at the end
of v4, state->period < pc->period was the right check to do.

The comment adds only little compared to the code line below. Please
drop it.

Dividing by state->period is wrong. I think you need pc->period here.

This property isn't in the binding!?

For below case:

.enabled = false
.polarity = PWM_POLARITY_INVERSED

Since our HW does not support inversed polarity, the output for above case
is expected to be constant low. And if we disable PWM before checking for
polarity, the output becomes constant low. The code just does that. Sorry,
i could not understand what is wrong with the code. It looks correct to me.

Given the fact that we support fixed period, if we allow
state->period < pc->period case then the duty cycle will be evaluated as
higher than the requested one because the state->period is lesser than
the actual fixed period supported by the HW. Can you please elaborate
on why you think we should allow state->period < pc->period case?

Thanks,

Regards,
Rahul

As your hardware can only support normal polarity, the code must have:

if (state->polarity != PWM_POLARITY_NORMAL)
return -EINVAL;

if (!state->enabled) {
ret = lgm_pwm_enable(chip, 0);
return ret;
}

That's what I meant writing: "At least for state->polarity you have to
check before state->enabled".

You should not allow it. In v4 you had:

if (state->polarity != PWM_POLARITY_NORMAL ||
state->period < pc->period)
return -EINVAL;

That's the right thing to do (even though I was unsettled at one point
and wrote it was wrong). The check in v5 with state->period !=
pc->period is wrong.

Uwe

Ok, i understand your point now.

Does that mean we should allow state->period >= pc->period cases?
If the state->period is greater than HW supported pc->period and
if we allow it then the duty cycle will again be evaluated to be
incorrect/higher than requested duty cycle. Am i missing something
else? Thanks.

Yes, the driver is supposed to implement the longest period not longer
than the requested one. This implies everything >= pc->period is fine.

Yes, similar as with period you're supposed to implement the longest
duty cycle your hardware supports and that is not longer than the
requested duty cycle.

Best regards
