This patch series implements clock deregistration in the common clock
framework. Comparing to v5 it only includes further corrections of NULL
clock handling.
Changes since v5:
- fixed NULL clock handling in __clk_get(), __clk_put (patch 5/5).
Changes since v4:
- removed stray struct module forward declaration in patch 3/5.
Changes since v3:
- replaced WARN_ON() with WARN_ON_ONCE() in clk_nodrv_disable_unprepare()
callback.
Changes since v2:
- reordered the patches so the race condition is fixed before it can
actually cause any issues,
- fixed handling of NULL clock pointers in __clk_get(), __clk_put(),
- added patch adding actual asignment of clk->owner; more details are
discussed in that specific patch.
Changes since v1:
- moved of_clk_{lock, unlock}, __of_clk_get_from_provider() function
declaractions to a local header,
- renamed clk_dummy_* to clk_nodrv_*.
Sylwester Nawrocki (5):
clk: Provide not locked variant of of_clk_get_from_provider()
clkdev: Fix race condition in clock lookup from device tree
clk: Add common __clk_get(), __clk_put() implementations
clk: Assign module owner of a clock being registered
clk: Implement clk_unregister

1.7.9.5
Add helper functions for the of_clk_providers list locking and
an unlocked variant of of_clk_get_from_provider().
These functions are intended to be used in the clkdev to avoid
race condition in the device tree based clock look up in clk_get().

1.7.9.5
There is currently a race condition in the device tree part of clk_get()
function, since the pointer returned from of_clk_get_by_name() may become
invalid before __clk_get() call. E.g. due to the clock provider driver
remove() callback being called in between of_clk_get_by_name() and
__clk_get().
Fix this by doing both the look up and __clk_get() operations with the
clock providers list mutex held. This ensures that the clock pointer
returned from __of_clk_get_from_provider() call and passed to __clk_get()
is valid, as long as the clock supplier module first removes its clock
provider instance and then does clk_unregister() on the corresponding
clocks.

This patch adds common __clk_get(), __clk_put() clkdev helpers which
replace their platform specific counterparts when the common clock
API is enabled.
The owner module pointer field is added to struct clk so a reference
to the clock supplier module can be taken by the clock consumers.

clk_unregister() is currently not implemented and it is required when
a clock provider module needs to be unloaded.
Normally the clock supplier module is prevented to be unloaded by
taking reference on the module in clk_get().
For cases when the clock supplier module deinitializes despite the
consumers of its clocks holding a reference on the module, e.g. when
the driver is unbound through "unbind" sysfs attribute, there are
empty clock ops added. These ops are assigned temporarily to struct
clk and used until all consumers release the clock, to avoid invoking
callbacks from the module which just got removed.

Changes since v5:
- ensure clk->kref is not referenced when the passed clk is NULL.
Changes since v4:
- none.
Changes since v3:
- Use WARN_ON_ONCE() rather than WARN_ON() in clk_nodrv_disable_unprepare()
callback.
Changes since v2:
- none.
Changes since RFC v1:
- renamed clk_dummy_* to clk_nodrv_*.
Changes since v3 of the original patch [1]:
- reparent all children to the orphan list instead of leaving
the clock unregistered when it has child clocks,
- removed unnecessary prerequisite checks in clk_debug_unregister(),
- struct clk is now being freed only when the last clock consumer
calls clk_put(),
- empty clock ops are used after clk_unregister() has been called
until all references to the clock are released and the clock
object is freed.

Actually this check could be done before taking the mutex. And to handle
NULL clocks properly it should be something like:
if (!clk || WARN_ON_ONCE(IS_ERR(clk)))
return;
I will hold on with posting a corrected version until there are any
further comments.

Hi Mike, Russell,
Would you have any further comments/suggestions on this series ?
I have inspected all callers of clk_register() and all should be fine
with regards to dereferencing dev->driver. The first argument to this
function is either NULL or clk_register() is being called in drivers'
probe() callback, which ensures dev->driver won't change due to holding
dev->mutex.
The only issue I found might be at the omap3isp driver, which provides
clock to its sub-drivers and takes reference on the sub-driver modules.
When sub-driver calls clk_get() all modules would get locked in memory,
due to circular reference. One solution to that could be to pass NULL
struct device pointer, as in the below patch.

Similarly it would need to be done for the remaining clk_register*()
functions,
which have much longer arguments list.
It's a bit messy, since there is already __clk_register() function with
double
underscore prefix. Perhaps that could be renamed to something else so
all the
functions taking struct module * parameter are prefixed with double
underscore.
I would squash patches 3/5 and 4/5 in the next iteration, if it is decided
to keep using dev->driver->owner.

Doesn't that introduce race conditions ? If the sub-drivers require the clock,
they want to be sure that the clock won't disappear beyond their backs. I
agree that the circular dependency needs to be solved somehow, but we probably
need a more generic solution. The problem will become more widespread in the
future with DT-based device instantiation in both V4L2 and KMS.

It doesn't introduce any new race conditions AFAICT. I doubt all these
issues
can be resolved in one single step. Currently the modular clock
providers are
seriously broken, there is no reference tracking and the clock consumers
can
easily get into a state where they have invalid references to clocks
supplied
by already unregistered drivers.
With this patch series the clock consumer drivers will not crash thanks
to the
clock object reference counting. So the worst thing may happen is a
clock left
in an unexpected state.
However there should be no problems with the v4l2-async API, the host driver
in its de-initialization routine unregisters its sub-drivers (they
should stop
using the clock when notified of such an event), only then the host would
unregister the clock (subsequently the sub-drivers get re-attached and put
into deferred probing state).
There may be issues when a sub-driver's file handle is opened while the host
is about to de-initialize. But I doubt resolution of such problems belongs
to the common clock framework. I have been trying to improve the situation
in small steps, rather than waiting forever for a perfect solution.
Do you perhaps have any ideas WRT to a "more generic solution" ? In general
I have been trying to avoid using v4l2-clk and add what's missing in the
common clock framework.
Perhaps we should leave only the kref part in the __clk_get(), __clk_put()
hooks and be taking reference to a clock in clk_prepare() and releasing it
in clk_unprepare() ? This way circular reference would exist only between
clk_prepare(), clk_unprepare() calls.
Assuming a driver prepares clock in device's open() and unprepares in device
close() handler perhaps it could all work better, without relying on the
host
to ensure the resource reference tracking. I'm not sure if that is not
making
too many assumptions for a generic API.
Thanks for the feedback.

I don't have any further comments. The changes look good to me and push
things in the right direction. I'll wait for Laurent's feedback on the
omap3isp driver implications though.

I'm wondering whether subsystems and drivers itself should be written so
they deal with such dependencies they are aware of.
There is similar situation in the regulator API, regulator_get() simply
takes a reference on a module providing the regulator object.
Before a "more generic solution" is available, what do you think about
keeping obtaining a reference on a clock provider module in clk_get() and
doing clk_get(), clk_prepare_enable(), ..., clk_unprepare_disable(),
clk_put() in sub-driver whenever a clock is actively used, to avoid
permanent circular reference ?

Laurent,
Did you have any feedback on this proposal? I would like to merge these
patches so that folks with clock driver modules can use them properly.
We can fix up things in the core code as we figure them out.

That's a workaround I can live with in the short term, as long as we work on a
generic solution to this problem. It will bite us back in the not too distant
future if we pretend to forget about it.

That in itself is a workaround I believe. Unbinding/rebinding devices from/to
drivers isn't something the v4l core should do.

This is indeed an architecture decision that goes beyond the boundaries of the
clock framework. The question boils down to how we want to acquire/release and
refcount resources. Should drivers acquire and release hotpluggable resources
at probe and remove time respectively, or only when they need them ? Or should
they acquire them at probe them and be notified when they should release them
? The first option adds an overhead but could help solving the circular
dependency problem in a simpler way.

I don't think you've compile-tested this :-)

This doesn't introduce any regression in the sense that it will trade a
problem for another one, so I'm fine with it in the short. Could you add a
small comment above the clk_register() call to explain why the first argument
is NULL ?

I've just replied to Sylwester's original patch. I'm basically OK with the
idea as a temporary solution.

Thank you for the comments. Yeah, I messed up this, I thought this part
got recompiled but it didn't. I've fixed this in the recently posted
patch.

I'm not entirely happy about doing something like that. Nevertheless I
didn't
hear so far any better proposals and I guess it could be treated as a short
term modification while we're working on proper handling of those circular
references.
