Toggle reset line in max98927_i2c_probe.
Use a list to store max98927 instances so we do not toggle reset line
again if more than one instances share the same reset line.

All GPIO properties are supposed to end -gpios even if there can only
ever be a single GPIO.

Hi Mark. I see.
I will update this along with the comments of the change in max98927.c
if there is any.
Thanks!
Hi Mark,
Do you have any concern about this patch ?
Thanks!

Please don't send content free pings and please allow a reasonable time
for review. People get busy, go on holiday, attend conferences and so
on so unless there is some reason for urgency (like critical bug fixes)
please allow at least a couple of weeks for review. If there have been
review comments then people may be waiting for those to be addressed.
Sending content free pings just adds to the mail volume (if they are
seen at all) and if something has gone wrong you'll have to resend the
patches anyway.

There is no need to do this, it's still potentially useful information
for userspace and it's also going to surprise anyone who tries to modify
the code to use this function at some other time (eg, when coming out of
suspend sometimes it's useful to reset the device).

I'm not seeing any locking of this list. This also feels like something
that shouldn't be in this driver but should be pushed up a level - it's
only going to do the right thing if the reset line is only shared with
other devices using this driver, if someone does something like put the
CODEC and an external speaker amp on the same reset pin then it won't
work. I'm not sure where the best place to do that is; drivers/reset
isn't really for this use case but feels right perhaps?
Can you perhaps split the basic reset handling out from this list
handling as a separate patch?
+reset controller maintainer Philipp
Hi Mark,
Sorry for the late reply. It took me a while to investigate reset
controller and its possible usage. I would like to figure out the
proper way of reset handling because it is common to have a shared
reset line for two max98927 codecs for left and right channels.
Without supporting this usage, a simple reset-gpios change for single
codec would not be useful, and perhaps will be duplicated if reset
controller is a better way.
Hi Philipp,
I would like to seek your advice about whether we can use reset
controller to support the use case where multiple devices share the
same reset line.
Let me summarize the use case:
There are two max98927 codecs sharing the same reset line.
The reset line is controlled by a GPIO.
The goal is to toggle reset line once and only once.
There was a similar scenario in tlv320aic3x codec driver [1].
A static list is used in the codec driver so probe function can know
whether it is needed to toggle reset line.
Mark pointed out that it is not suitable to handle the shared reset
line inside codec driver.
A point is that this only works for multiple devices using the same
device driver.
He suggested to look into reset controller so I searched through the
usage for common reset line.
Here I found a shared reset line use case [2].
With the patch [2], reset_control_reset can support this “reset once
and for all” use case.
However, I found that there are some missing pieces:
Let’s assume there are two codecs c1 and c2 sharing a reset line
controlled by GPIO.
c1’s spec:
Hold time: The minimum time to assert the reset line is t_a1.
Release time: The minimum time to access the chip after deassert of
the reset line is t_d1.
c2’s spec:
Hold time: The minimum time to assert the reset line is t_a2.
Release time: The minimum time to access the chip after deassert of
the reset line is t_d2.
For both c1 and c2 to work properly, we need a reset controller that
can assert the reset line for
T = max(t_a1, t_a2).
1. We need reset controller to support GPIO.
2. We need to specify hold time T to reset controller in device tree
so it knows that it needs hold reset line for that long in its
implementation of reset_control_reset.
3. Assuming we have 1 and 2 in place. In codec driver of c1, it can
call reset_control_reset and wait for t_a1 + t_d1. In codec driver of
c2, it can call reset_control_reset and wait for t_a2 + t_d2.
We need to wait for hold time + release time because
triggered_count is increased before reset ops is called. When the
second driver finds that triggered_count is 1 and skip the real reset
operation, reset ops might just begin doing its work a short time ago.
I am not sure whether we would need a flag in reset controller to
mark that "reset is done". When driver sees this flag is done, it can
just wait for release time instead of hold time + release time.
And I found that you already solved 1 and mentioned the
possible usage of 2 in [3].
There were discussion about letting device driver to deal with
reset-gpios by itself in [4], but it seems that reset controller can
better deal with the shared reset line situation.
Maybe we could revive the patch of GPIO support for reset controller ?
Please let me know what direction I should look into.
Thanks a lot!

This patch was applied as 7da33a37b48f. So the reset framework has
support for shared reset controls where only the first reset request
actually causes a reset pulse, and all others are no-ops.

I still don't like the idea of describing a separate gpio reset
controller "device" in DT very much, as this is really just a software
abstraction, not actual hardware. For example:
gpio_reset: reset-controller {
compatible = "gpio-reset";
reset-gpios = <&gpio0 15 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>,
<&gpio1
16 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
reset-delays-us = <10000>, <500>;
};
c1 {
resets = <&gpio_reset 0>; /* maps to <&gpio0 15 ...> */
};
c2 {
resets = <&gpio_reset 0>;
};
What I would like better would be to let the consumers keep their reset-
gpios bindings, but add an optional hold time override in the DT:
c1 {
reset-gpios = <&gpio0 15 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
reset-delays-us = <10000>;
};
c2 {
reset-gpios = <&gpio0 15 GPIO_ACTIVE_LOW>;
re
set-delays-us = <10000>;
};
The reset framework could create a reset_control backed by a gpio
instead of a rcdev. I have an unfinished patch for this, but without the
sharing requirement adding the reset framework abstraction between gpiod
and drivers never seemed really worth it.

Agreed. Ideally, I'd like to make this optional, and have the drivers
continue to provide the hold time if they think they know it.

The reset framework should wait for the configured assertion time,
max(t_a1, t_a2). The drivers only should only have to wait for
t_d1 / t_d2 after reset_control_reset returns.

That is a good point. Maybe the reset framework should just wait for the
hold time even for the second reset. Another possibility would be to
serialize them with a mutex.

Let's not complicate the drivers with this too much. I think
reset_control_reset should guarantee that the reset line is not asserted
anymore upon return.

The discussion with Maxime in [4] hasn't really been resolved. I still
think the reset-gpios property should be kept, and the reset framework
could adapt to it. This is something the device tree maintainers' input
would be welcome on.

I don't remember the exact details of our past discussion, but I
(still) don't really think that this would work well. I see two main
shortcomings with that approach:
- I guess that the main reason you want to do that would be to have
easy DT backward compatibility. Yet, the addition of the
reset-delay-us would break that compatibility, since drivers that
would have been converted now need to have it somehow, but older
DTs wouldn't have it
- There's so many variations of the reset-gpios property name that
you wouldn't be able to cover all the cases anyhow, at least
without breaking the compatibility (again).
But I also see your point, and you're right that converting everyone
to a gpio-reset node will not happen (even though I'd still really
like to have that binding).
What about having a function that would be called by the consumer to
instantiate that reset controller from a GPIO for us, instead of
trying to do it automatically? That function could take the property
name that holds the GPIO, which would cover the second drawback, and
the delay, which would cover the first.
And in order to cover shared GPIO reset lines, we could just look at
the one already created by other drivers, and if one has been created,
we just give the reference to that one instead of creating it.
Does that make sense?

It has been a while :) Thanks for jumping back in.

Yes, that is true. The other reason is that I'd like devices to have a
single binding, regardless of whether somebody decided to put them onto
a board with shared reset lines.
I'd find it hard to advocate for changing the thankfully common case
of device-exclusive reset gpios from:
some-device {
reset-gpios = <&gpiox y>;
};
to:
rstc: reset-controller {
compatible = "gpio-reset";
reset-gpios <&gpiox y>;
};
some-device {
resets = <&rstc 0>;
};
even for new bindings.
If the reset framework only supports the latter, and not the former,
drivers for devices which already have reset-gpios would have to handle
both reset_control and gpiod functionality, which I think should not be
necessary.
Note that this is not really an argument against a "gpio-reset"
controller driver, but an argument for reset-gpios support integrated
into the reset framework.
My argument against a "gpio-reset" device node in the DT is only that it
is basically a virtual device that would only be used to work around
missing reset-gpios support in the reset framework. Physically, this
"device" consists of no more than a few PCB traces.

That is why such a property would have to be optional, and the drivers
would have to keep providing the reset delay themselves, as they
currently do when handling GPIOs directly.
It would only serve to override the driver default in case of additional
delay requirements due to board specifics (such as delay elements, or
shared resets).

This is true, and I do not have a solution for this. Especially for
those cases that don't use gpiod yet.
of_get_named_gpio(node, "reset-gpio")
is still quite common, but I'd really like on gpiolib for polarity
support.
> But I also see your point, and you're right that converting everyone

See above. I'd be a lot less reluctant to support this binding if
somebody could demonstrate a real gpio controlled reset controller

I like this idea.
I'd like to avoid having to fall back from gpiod to of_get_named_gpio if
possible, so maybe we'd have to extend gpiolib-of.c with an
of_find_reset_gpio function, as is done for SPI and regulators already.
We probably would have to support delay ranges. I see a lot of
usleep_range calls between reset GPIO toggles in the drivers.

I'm not quite sure how to match an already requested reset control from
the list given of_node and gpio property name at the moment - this might
involve exporting gpiod_find from gpiolib, but API wise I think this is
a sane proposal.
I would not want to add reset controller devices for each of these GPIO
reset controls, but rather store the gpio_desc reference in the
reset_control instead of the rcdev reference.

This looks great.
I am not sure what is the plan proceeding from here.
Are you going to implement this feature with the unfinished patch you
mentioned to create reset_control backed by a GPIO?
I am willing to help.
If you have patch I can help testing it.
It will be easier to test the shared reset line on my side since the
board I am working now has this use case.
If you don't have time for this, I can work on it based on your WIP patch.
In that case could you please post the patch ?
I just want to make sure I am on the right direction solving this
without making duplicate efforts..

This plan to support shared reset line makes sense.
Thanks a lot!
