Subject: [PATCH net-next v5 13/17] net: pse-pd: Use regulator framework within PSE framework

Integrate the regulator framework to the PSE framework for enhanced
access to features such as voltage, power measurement, and limits, which
are akin to regulators. Additionally, PSE features like port priorities
could potentially enhance the regulator framework. Note that this
integration introduces some implementation complexity, including wrapper
callbacks and nested locks, but the potential benefits make it worthwhile.

Regulator are using enable counter with specific behavior.
Two calls to regulator_disable will trigger kernel warnings.
If the counter exceeds one, regulator_disable call won't disable the
PSE PI. These behavior isn't suitable for PSE control.
Added a boolean 'enabled' state to prevent multiple calls to
regulator_enable/disable. These calls will only be called from PSE
framework as it won't have any regulator children, therefore no mutex are
needed to safeguards this boolean.

regulator_get uses the consumer device pointer therefore of_pse_control_get
is modified accordingly to pass the PSE consumer device alongside its
device node.

This patch is sponsored by Dent Project <[email protected]>.

Changes in v3:
- New patch

Changes in v4:
- Remove the nested lock as the regulator_enable/disable ops will only
be called from the PSE framework. No need to protect the 'enabled'
boolean.
- Update regulator to current instead of voltage.

Hi Kory,

Please update the Kernel doc for struct pse_controller_ops to reflect the

These newly documented fields don't seem to exist in struct
pse_controller_dev. Perhaps this is an left over from earlier development?

Hello Simon,
Sorry I totally forgot to update the kernel doc on that patch.

Please rename rename "enabled" to "admin_state_enabled". This variable
do not reflect real device state, it reflects only user configuration.

I do not think it is a good idea to make PSE controller depend on
phy->mdio.dev. The only reason why we have fwnode_find_pse_control()
here was the missing port abstraction.

Please add input supply to track all dependencies:
if (of_property_present(np, "vin-supply"))
config->input_supply = "vin";

May be better to make it not optional...

Should be tested, but if, instead of "vin-supply", we will use
"pse-supply" it will make most part of pse_regulator.c obsolete.

If I see it correctly, it will prevent us to refcount a request from
user space. So, the runtime PM may suspend PI.

I totally agree that having port abstraction would be more convenient.
Maxime Chevallier is currently working on this and will post it after his
multi-phy series get merged.
Meanwhile, we still need a device pointer for getting the regulator. The
phy->mdio.dev is the only one I can think of as a regulator consumer.
Another idea?

Does the "vin-supply" property be added at the pse-pi node level or the
pse-controller node level or at the hardware port node level or the manager node
level for the pd692x0?
Maybe better at the pse-pi node level and each PIs of the manager will get the
same regulator?
What do you think?

Don't know, if it is done at the pse-pi node level it may not break
pse_regulator.c. Not sure about it.

I don't think so as the regulator_get_exclusive() does the same and refcount it:

I would say, in current code state, PSE controller is regulator provider and
consumer - both are same devices. Otherwise, it will be impossible to
unregistered PHY devices without shutting down PSE-PI. Mostly, we should
be able to continue to provide the power even if network interface is down.

Yes, I agree. PSE-PI should share same parent regulator. Different PSE
managers may have different power supplies. One port (PSE PI) - not.

me too. Before your patch set, the regulator topology for PoDL PSE was
following:
power-source
fixed-regulator
PoDL_PSE-consumer

Now it will be:
power-source
fixed-regulator
PoDL_PSE-consumer
PSE-PI-provider
PSE-PI-consumer

By porting porting PSE framework to regulator, probably it make sense to
remove two levels of regulators?
power-source
fixed-regulator
PSE-PI-consumer

Sorry, i've not been keeping up...

Doesn't the device tree binding determine this? Where is the consumer
in the tree?

The real consumer is outside of the system. Withing the system, it would
be the RJ45 port, but we have no abstraction for ports so far.

The device on the other end of the cable?

A Linux regulator is generally used in a producer/consumer pair. If
there is no consumer device, why have a producer? What is going to use
the consumer API?

When we have a port representor, do we expect it to have active
elements? Something which will consume this regulator?

We already consulted Mark Brown in precious iterations of this patch
series and got his OK. I also described all advantages of using
regulator framework within the PSE subsystem. I need to search it. Short answer,
it is relatively common to have open-ended regulator with consumer outside of
the system. A PSE system can be relatively complex, representing all
supply dependencies from power supplies (one or multiple) to the ports
will help to provide needed diagnostic information and power saving
if port are disabled. Some functionality is currently not supported by
the regulator framework, but need to be extended - power budged,
priorities and reservation. All of this are not exclusive PSE
challenges. So, using regulator framework seems to be a straightforward
decision.

Not in a usual sense. There are two levels of PSE control:
- autodetected by PSE controller
- fine tuned by using LLDP wich may respond to PD requests by allocating
more or reducing/disabling power.

Sorry, I forgot to reply about this.
This is specific to pse_regulator driver. Could we tackle this change in another
patch series when the current patch series got applied?
Also I don't have the hardware to test it.

ACK, no problem.

I have a question unrelated to this.
Why do you add refcount on the pse_control struct?
The pse control is related to the RJ45 port. Each port is exclusively related
to one pse control.
Shouldn't we return an error in case of two get of the same pse control index?
Do you see use cases where a pse control could be get two times?

I assume, any instance which need coordinate PSE behavior with own actions. For
example - PHY will probably need to coordinate PHY state with PSE PD
classification process.

Indeed, I was focused on devicetree and didn't thought of coordination
between PHY and PSE. Thanks for your reply.
