Subject: [PATCH v3 1/3] pwm: make it possible to apply pwm changes in atomic context

Some drivers require sleeping, for example if the pwm device is connected
over i2c. The pwm-ir-tx requires precise timing, and sleeping causes havoc
with the generated IR signal when sleeping occurs.

This patch makes it possible to use pwm when the driver does not sleep,
by introducing the pwm_can_sleep() function.

I have no objection to this patch by itself, but it seems a bit
of unnecessary churn to change all current callers of pwm_apply_state()
to a new API.

Why not just keep pwm_apply_state() as is and introduce a new
pwm_apply_state_atomic() for callers which want to apply state
in a case where sleeping is not allowed ?

Regards,

Hans

The idea is to improve the semantic of the function name, see
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pwm/[email protected]
for more context. I think it's very subjective if you consider this
churn or not. While it's nice to have every caller converted in a single
step, I'd go for

#define pwm_apply_state(pwm, state) pwm_apply_cansleep(pwm, state)

, keep that macro for a while and convert all users step by step. This
way we don't needlessly break oot code and the changes to convert to the
new API can go via their usual trees without time pressure.

There is a big spontaneous growth of function name patterns. I didn't
claim having done a complete research, but not using a suffix for the
fast variant and _cansleep for the sleeping one at least aligns to how
the gpio subsystem names things.

Grepping a bit more:

- regmap has: regmap_might_sleep() and struct regmap::can_sleep
The actual API doesn't have different functions to differentiate
sleeping and non-sleeping calls. (Though there is
regmap_read_poll_timeout_atomic().)

- kmap() + kmap_atomic()
- set_pte() + set_pte_atomic()

- There is scmi_is_transport_atomic() and scmi_handle::is_transport_atomic()
(Is this also about sleeping?)

- There are quite a lot more symbols ending in _atomic and in
_cansleep, but several of them don't exists to differentiate a slow
and a fast procedure. (e.g. drm_mode_atomic)

Not entirely sure what to read out of that.

Best regards
Uwe

Hmm, so the argument here is that the GPIO API has this, but GPIOs
generally speaking can be set atomically, so there not being able
to set it atomically is special.

OTOH we have many many many other kernel functions which may sleep
and we don't all postfix them with _can_sleep.

And for PWM controllers pwm_apply_state is IMHO sorta expected to
sleep. Many of these are attached over I2C so things will sleep,
others have a handshake to wait for the current dutycycle to
end before you can apply a second change on top of an earlier
change during the current dutycycle which often also involves
sleeping.

So the natural/expeected thing for pwm_apply_state() is to sleep
and thus it does not need a postfix for this IMHO.

I consider it churn because I don't think adding a postfix
for what is the default/expected behavior is a good idea
(with GPIOs not sleeping is the expected behavior).

I agree that this is very subjective and very much goes
into the territory of bikeshedding. So please consider
the above my 2 cents on this and lets leave it at that.

I don't think there are enough users of pwm_apply_state() to warrant
such an exercise.

So if people want to move ahead with the _can_sleep postfix addition
(still not a fan) here is my acked-by for the drivers/platform/x86
changes, for merging this through the PWM tree in a single commit:

Most pwm drivers look like they can be made to work in atomic context,
I think. Like you say this is not the case for all of them. Whatever
we choose to be the default for pwm_apply_state(), we should have a
clear function name for the alternative. This is essentially why
pam_apply_cansleep() was picked.

The alternative to pwm_apply_cansleep() is to have a function name
which implies it can be used from atomic context. However,
pwm_apply_atomic() is not great because the "atomic" could be
confused with the PWM atomic API, not the kernel process/atomic
context.

So what should the non-sleeping function be called then?
- pwm_apply_cannotsleep()
- pwm_apply_nosleep()
- pwm_apply_nonsleeping()
- pwm_apply_atomic_context()

You have a valid point. Let's focus on having descriptive function names.

Well pwm_apply_state() is the atomic PWM interface right?

So to me pwm_apply_state_atomic() would be clearly about
running atomically.

> - pwm_apply_cannotsleep()

I would just go with:

pwm_apply_state_atomic()

but if this is disliked by others then lets just rename

pwm_apply_state() to pwm_apply_state_cansleep() as
is done in this patch and use plain pwm_apply_state()
for the new atomic-context version.

Hans

For a couple of days I've been trying to resist the bikeshedding (esp.
given the changes to backlight are tiny) so I'll try to keep it as
brief as I can:

1. I dislike the do_it() and do_it_cansleep() pairing. It is
difficult to detect when a client driver calls do_it() by mistake.
In fact a latent bug of this nature can only be detected by runtime
testing with the small number of PWMs that do not support
configuration from an atomic context.

In contrast do_it() and do_it_atomic()[*] means that although
incorrectly calling do_it() from an atomic context can be pretty
catastrophic it is also trivially detected (with any PWM driver)
simply by running with CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP.

No objections (beyond churn) to fully spelt out pairings such as
do_it_cansleep() and do_it_atomic()[*]!


2. If there is an API rename can we make sure the patch contains no
other changes (e.g. don't introduce any new API in the same patch).
Seperating renames makes the patches easier to review!
It makes each one smaller and easier to review!


Daniel.


[*] or do_it_nosleep()... etc.

I must say I do like the look of this. Uwe, how do you feel about:
pwm_apply_cansleep() and pwm_apply_atomic()? I know we've talked about
pwm_apply_atomic in the past, however I think this this the best
option I've seen so far.

Yes, this should have been separated out. Will fix for next version.

Wrongly calling the atomic variant (no matter how it's named) in a
context where sleeping is possible is only a minor issue. Being faster
than necessary is hardly a problem, so it only hurts by not being an
preemption point with PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY which might not even be relevant
because we're near to a system call anyhow.

For me the naming is only very loosely related to the possible bugs. I
think calling the wrong function happens mainly because the driver author
isn't aware in which context the call happens and not because of wrong
assumptions about the sleepiness of a certain function call.
If you consider this an argument however, do_it + do_it_cansleep is
better than do_it_atomic + do_it as wrongly assuming do_it would sleep
is less bad than wrongly assuming do_it wouldn't sleep. (The latter is
catched by CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP, but only if it's enabled.)

Having said that while my subjective preference ordering is (with first
= best):

do_it + do_it_cansleep
do_it_atomic + do_it_cansleep
do_it_atomic + do_it

wi(th a _might_sleep or _mightsleep suffix ranging below _cansleep)
I wouldn't get sleepless nights when I get overruled here
(uwe_cansleep :-).
