The switch to the atomic API goes hand in hand with a few fixes to
previously experienced issues:
- The duty cycle is no longer lost after disable/enable (previously the
OFF registers were cleared in disable and the user was required to
call config to restore the duty cycle settings)
- If one sets a period resulting in the same prescale register value,
the sleep and write to the register is now skipped

Changes since v6:
- Order of a comparison switched for improved readability
Changes since v5:
- Function documentation for set_duty
- Variable initializations
- Print warning if all LEDs channel
- Changed EOPNOTSUPP to EINVAL
- Improved error messages
- Register reset corrections moved to this patch
Changes since v4:
- Patches split up
- Use a single set_duty function
- Improve readability / new macros
- Added a patch to restrict prescale changes to the first user
Changes since v3:
- Refactoring: Extracted common functions
- Read prescale register value instead of caching it
- Return all zeros and disabled for "all LEDs" channel state
- Improved duty calculation / mapping to 0..4096
Changes since v2:
- Always set default prescale value in probe
- Simplified probe code
- Inlined functions with one callsite
Changes since v1:
- Fixed a logic error
- Impoved PM runtime handling and fixed !CONFIG_PM
- Write default prescale reg value if invalid in probe
- Reuse full_off/_on functions throughout driver
- Use cached prescale value whenever possible

Implements .get_state to read-out the current hardware state.
The hardware readout may return slightly different values than those
that were set in apply due to the limited range of possible prescale and
counter register values.
Also note that although the datasheet mentions 200 Hz as default
frequency when using the internal 25 MHz oscillator, the calculated
period from the default prescaler register setting of 30 is 5079040ns.

The chip does not come out of POR in active state but in sleep state.
To be sure (in case the bootloader woke it up) we force it to sleep in
probe.
On kernels without CONFIG_PM, we wake the chip in .probe and put it to
sleep in .remove.

Regmap operations can fail if the underlying subsystem is not working
properly (e.g. hogged I2C bus, etc.)
As this is useful information for the user, print an error message if it
happens.
Let probe fail if the first regmap_read or the first regmap_write fails.

2.31.1
If the flag PWM_STAGGERING_ALLOWED is set on a channel, the PWM driver
may (if supported by the HW) delay the ON time of the channel relative
to the channel number.
This does not alter the duty cycle ratio and is only relevant for PWM
chips with less prescalers than channels, which would otherwise assert
multiple or even all enabled channels at the same time.
If this feature is supported by the driver and the flag is set on
multiple channels, their ON times are spread out to improve EMI and
reduce current spikes.

Previously, the last used PWM channel could change the global prescale
setting, even if other channels are already in use.
Fix it by only allowing the first enabled PWM to change the global
chip-wide prescale setting. If there is more than one channel in use,
the prescale settings resulting from the chosen periods must match.
GPIOs do not count as enabled PWMs as they are not using the prescaler
and can't change it.

Changes since v6:
- Only allow the first PWM that is enabled to change the prescaler, not
the first one that uses the prescaler

For the record, I don't like this and still prefer to make this
staggering explicit for the consumer by expanding struct pwm_state with
an .offset member to shift the active phase in the period.

As said in reply to patch 4/8 already: I don't like this idea and
think this should be made explicit using a new offset member in struct
pwm_state instead. That's because I think that the wave form a PWM
generates should be (completely) defined by the consumer and not by a
mix between consumer and device tree. Also the consumer has no (sane)
way to determine if staggering is in use or not.
One side effect (at least for the pca9685) is that when programming a
new duty cycle it takes a bit longer than without staggering until the
new setting is active.
Another objection I have is that we already have some technical debt
because there are already two different types of drivers (.apply vs
.config+.set_polarity+.enable+.disable) and I would like to unify this
first before introducing new stuff.
Best regards
Uwe

Why do you set val to 0 first? Do you get a compiler warning otherwise?

Is this a relevant bug fix? If both OFF_H.FULL and ON_H.FULL are set,
the output is low and this was diagnosed before as high.

Orthogonal to your patch:
I don't know the customs of GPIO drivers enough, but I wonder that
.free() results in setting the value of the GPIO?!

Here the multiplication might overflow. Also if period is small the
result of the division might be 0 and prescale might end up being -1ULL.
(But that's a problem that we had already before, so not a stopper for
this patch.)

Here we're losing precision. In general calculating the duty should be
done using time, not period counter values. (Again, that's an old
problem.)

Oh, the new implementation uses DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST. IMHO either keep the
calculations as is, or use the preferred round-down.

I assume it's a requirement to stop the oscillator when changing the
prescaler?

Is this hunk unrelated to the patch description?

Given that with duty = 0 the chip is still "on" and changing the duty
will first complete the currently running period, I'd model duty=0 as
enabled. This also simplifies the code a bit, to something like:
state->enabled = true;
duty = pca9685_pwm_get_duty(pca, pwm->hwpwm);
state->duty_cycle = div_round_up(duty * state->period, PCA9685_COUNTER_RANGE);
(I'm using round-up here assuming apply uses round-down to get
idempotency. In the current patch set state this is wrong however.)

Maybe this is a bit more effective?:
DECLARE_BITMAP(blablub, PCA9685_MAXCHAN + 1);
bitmap_zero(blablub, PCA9685_MAXCHAN + 1);
bitmap_set(blablub, channel);
return bitmap_subset(pca->pwms_enabled, blablub);
(but that's a minor issue, the suggested algorithm is correct.)
So:
Acked-by: Uwe Kleine-K?nig <[email protected]>
(side-note: I wonder if the handling of the set-all channel is correct
here. But given that it is messy anyhow, (e.g. because setting some
state to this set-all channel doesn't influence pwm_get_state for the
individual channels) I don't object if there is another problem in this
corner case. IMHO just dropping this virtual channel would be nice.)
Best regards

No, just to have it set to 0 in case regmap_read fails / val was not
set.

Yes, I think so.
Previously, only the full ON bit was toggled (and full OFF cleared if
set to high), which could result in both full OFF and full ON not being
set and on=0, off=0, which is not allowed according to the datasheet.
I should probably mention it in the commit description.

Yeah. I am not sure about that either, but I kept that as it was before.

I can change that one to round-down if that's the preferred method.

It's a fix of the resets because the POR state is LED_FULL, not 0.
Do you want me to extract it into a separate patch?

I don't see any breakage here. Either there is none or I failed to grasp
where you see a problem.

I don't think offsets are ideal for this feature: It makes it more
cumbersome for the user, because he has to allocate the offsets
himself instead of a simple on/off switch.
The envisioned usecase is: "I want better EMI behavior and don't care
about the individual channels no longer being asserted at the exact same
time".

Yes, but it can be turned off if this is a problem, now even per-PWM.

But there is already PWM_POLARITY_INVERTED, which can be set in the DT.
I am only adding another flag.
Thierry: What's your take on this?

No, because it would become a big mess and really obstruct readability
in my opinion.
So I chose some kind of middleground:
I decided to check the first regmap_read and regmap_write in probe and
return the error code if something goes wrong there.
If something goes wrong after probe, I only print an error message.
Is that acceptable?

But if no PWM is enabled, it should return true, not false.

I would prefer to keep it explicit because it is a little easier to

As you can't request the all channel and the individual channels
together, there shouldn't be any problems.
I agree that it would be nice to drop the ALL channel support.

The formal thing is: "I want better EMI behavior and don't care if
periods start with the active phase, it might be anywhere, even over a
period boundary." Being asserted at the exact same time is just a detail
for the pca9685.

Yes and that is a good thing. (BTW: I'd call it per-PWM-consumer, but
details.)

I understand your reasoning, and similar to "This diplay backlight needs
an inverted PWM (as a low duty-cycle results in a high brightness" this
semantic "This consumer doesn't care if the active cycle is anywhere in
the period". Hmm, maybe I just have to think about it a bit more to
become friends with that thought.

If no PWM is enabled we have pca->pwms_enabled = empty set which is a
subset of every set. So I'd expect this case to be handled just fine.

I didn't find it hard to follow, but I'm willing to accept that this
isn't representative. I'm ok with keeping the code as is.

Maybe deprecate it using a config item? But no hurry.

I wanted to have that in the commit log, but just noticed that I didn't
read it carefully enough, it's already there.
So if you change %d in the error messages to %pe I'm happy with this

So, in your opinion, every requested PWM of the pca9685 should always be
enabled by default (from the PWM core viewpoint) ?
And this wouldn't break the following because pwm_get_state does not
actually read out the hw state:
pwm_get_state -> enabled=true duty=0
pwm_apply_state -> enabled =false duty=0
pwm_get_state -> enabled=false duty=0

Yes, I think that's basically what this is saying. I think we're perhaps
getting hung up on the terminology here. PWM_STAGGERING_ALLOWED gives
the impression that we're dealing with some provider-specific feature,
whereas what we really want to express is that the PWM doesn't care
exactly when the active cycle starts and based on that a provider that
can support it may optimize the EMI behavior.
Maybe we can find a better name for this? Ultimately what this means is
that the consumer is primarily interested in the power output of the PWM
rather than the exact shape of the signal. So perhaps something like
PWM_USAGE_POWER would be more appropriate.
Come to think of it, a flag like that might even be useful to implement
the common case of emulating inverted polarity with reversing the duty
cycle. That is, if PWM_USAGE_POWER | PWM_POLARITY_INVERSED was specified
and the PWM provider did not support polarity inversion, the inversion
could still be implemented using emulation. Currently we push that logic
down into consumers, but this could be a way to bring that up into
drivers, or perhaps even the core.

Yes, although it would then no longer be obvious that this feature leads
to improved EMI behavior, as long as we mention that in the docs, I
think it's a good idea
Maybe document it as follows?
PWM_USAGE_POWER - Allow the driver to delay the start of the cycle
for EMI improvements, as long as the power output stays the same

Interesting, but that would be left for another series in the future, I
assume?

I don't like both names, because for someone who is only halfway into
PWM stuff it is not understandable. Maybe ALLOW_PHASE_SHIFT?
When a consumer is only interested in the power output than
.period = 20
.duty_cycle = 5
would also be an allowed response for the request
.period = 200
.duty_cycle = 50
and this is not what is in the focus here.

Right.
If Thierry agrees, I can spin up a new revision.
Maybe we can get it into 5.13 after all.

That's a very narrow definition of what this does, but yeah, I think the
more we document this the better.
However, the intention for naming this PWM_USAGE_POWER is to make it
clear that from the *consumer* side of things we use the PWM for its
power output and therefore we don't care about the signal actually looks
like, except that it should provide power equivalent to what the
consumer requested.

Yes, of course. I was merely thinking about what could be done with this
if we describe it in this generic way.

Actually, that's *exactly* what's important here. From a consumer point
of view the output power is the key in this case. The specifier is a
description of a particular PWM in the consumer context. And the
consumer not going to care what exactly the PWM controller might end up
configuring to achieve best results. If the controller allows the phase
shift to be changed and the constraints allow it, then that's great, but
it isn't something that the consumer has to know if all it wants is that
the power output is as requested.
Put another way, the more generically we can describe the constraints or
use cases, the more flexibility we get for drivers to fulfill those
constraints. For example one controller might support phase shifting and
use that for PWM_USAGE_POWER for better EMI behaviour. But another PWM
controller may not support it. But it could perhaps want to optimize the
PWM signal by reversing the polarity of one channel or whatever other
mechanism there may be.
If we add a flag such as ALLOW_PHASE_SHIFT, then only controllers that
support programmable phase shift will be able to support this. If some
other mechanism can also be used to support "equivalent power" use
cases, that would have to be described as some other flag, which has
essentially the same meaning. So you can get into a situation where you
have multiple flags used for the same thing.

How are consumers supposed to know which offset to choose? And worse:
how should consumers even know that the driver supports phase shifts?

This looks odd to me. I've seen similar constructs, but they usually go
something like this (I think):
pm_runtime_enable(&client->dev);
if (!pm_runtime_enabled(&client->dev)) {
/* resume device */
}
Which I guess in your would be somewhat the opposite and it wouldn't
actually resume the device but rather put it to sleep.
Perhaps something like this:
pm_runtime_enable(&client->dev);
if (pm_runtime_enabled(&client->dev)) {
pca9685_set_sleep_mode(pca, true);
pm_runtime_set_suspended(&client->dev);
} else {
/* wake the chip up on non-PM environments */
pca9685_set_sleep_mode(pca, false);
}
? I think that's slightly more correct than your original because it
takes into account things like sysfs power control and such. It also
doesn't rely on the config option alone but instead uses the runtime
PM API to achieve this more transparently.

I see what you mean. We have more flexibility with PWM_USAGE_POWER. The
only downside is that there is no real connection to the improved EMI
but I guess that's what documentation is for.
I will try to document it as follows:
- PWM_USAGE_POWER - Only care about the power output of the signal. This
allows drivers (if supported) to optimize the signals, for example to
improve EMI and reduce current spikes.
Maybe I then add a comment describing the specific optimization in the
pca9685 code, maybe like this:
If PWM_USAGE_POWER is set on a PWM, the pca9685 driver will phase shift
the individual channels relative to their channel number. This improves
EMI because the enabled channels no longer turn on at the same time,
while still maintaining the configured duty cycle.

Yes, I wanted to keep it in sleep mode if runtime PM is supported (to be
woken up later) and otherwise just wake it up in probe.

Ah, yes, I missed the fact that runtime could be disabled 'at runtime'
via sysfs as well, so yes, that's more correct and pm_runtime_enabled
will just return false if !CONFIG_PM, so that should work as well.

The questions that come to (my) mind when reading PWM_USAGE_POWER are:
So the PWM is allowed to use some power? The PWM is used to provide a
power source (like a regulator)? Has this something to do with a
permission to use the PWM (the power to use it)?
Please try googling for "usage power", and compare it with the results
you get for "phase shift".

OK, so if I understand you correctly, you want indeed allow
.period = 200
.duty_cycle = 50
when
.period = 20
.duty_cycle = 5
was requested? Do you want also allow .period = 20000 + .duty_cycle =
5000? How would you limit what is allowed? I'd expect we don't want to
allow .period = 20000000000 + .duty_cycle = 5000000000? What should a
driver for a PWM backlight pass to pwm_apply_state if the PWM period
should be between 4000000 ns and 16666666 ns? (This comes from the first
backlight datasheet I found where the valid range for the brightness
input is 60 to 250Hz.) Maybe saying that only making the period smaller
would be an idea; but the motor bridge I recently worked with[1] limits
the PWM frequency to "up to 20 kHz", so this isn't an universally good
idea either.

Yes, if ALLOW_PHASE_SHIFT isn't what the consumer actually wants, they
shouldn't use it. Agreed.

Yes, from the POV of a lowlevel driver the more general the better. From
the POV of a consumer this isn't universally true, because the consumer
might only accept a subset of the freedom this general flag gives to the
lowlevel driver.

That's wrong, drivers that support the polarity that was not requested
can make use of it, too. That's something you already pointed out
yourself (or I misunderstood you). (Then
.period = X
.duty_cycle = Y
.polarity = PWM_POLARITY_NORMAL
is "equivalent" to
.period = X
.duty_cycle = X - Y
.polarity = PWM_POLARITY_INVERSED
as the signals only differ by a phase shift.)

If they are for the same thing, you don't need another flag. Your
concern is only valid if all consumers that are ok to accept a phase
shifted PWM signal really only care about the relative duty cycle. I
think that's wrong. (All consumers that use the PWM as something like a
clock signal where something happens on the rising and/or falling edge
and want this something happen with a certain frequency care about the
period, but not the phase shift.)

I'm aware that we're a long way from being able to use this. The clean
approach would be to get the offset from the device tree in the same way
as the period. And in the meantime I agree that introducing a flag that
allows to shift the active part in the period is a sane idea. So I
suggest we concentrate on getting the details in the corresponding
discussion straight.

For now reviewing this patch is not necessary, we're discussing a better
name for this flag.
