Bamvor Jian Zhang d27c17285e gpio: fix abi regression in sysfs
We started to assign the gpio_device as parent for the sysfs
but this changes the expected layout of sysfs. Restore the
previous behaviour.

Linus Walleij fdeb8e1547 gpio: reflect base and ngpio into gpio_device
Some information about the GPIO chip need to stay around also
after the gpio_chip has been removed and only the gpio_device
persist. The base and ngpio are such things, for example we
don't want a new chip arriving to overlap the number space
of a dangling gpio_device, and the chardev may still query
the device for the number of lines etc.

Note that the code that assigns base and insert gpio_device
into the global list no longer check for a missing gpio_chip:
we respect the number space allocated by any other gpio_device.

As a consequence of the gdev being referenced directly from
the gpio_desc, we need to verify it differently from all
in-kernel API calls that fall through to direct queries to
the gpio_chip vtable: we first check that desc is !NULL, then
that desc->gdev is !NULL, then, if desc->gdev->chip is NULL,
we *BAIL OUT* without any error, so as to manage the case
where operations are requested on a device that is gone.

These checks were non-uniform and partly missing in the past:
so to simplify: create the macros VALIDATE_DESC() that will
return -EINVAL if the desc or desc->gdev is missing and just
0 if the chip is gone, and conversely VALIDATE_DESC_VOID()
for the case where the function does not return an error.
By using these macros, we get warning messages about missing
gdev with reference to the right function in the kernel log.

Despite the macro business this simplifies the code and make
it more readable than if we copy/paste the same descriptor
checking code into all code ABI call sites (IMHO).

We need gpio_device to hold the descriptors so that they can

Linus Walleij afbc4f312b gpio: move sysfs mock device to the gpio_device
Since gpio_device is the struct that survives if the backing

Linus Walleij ff2b135922 gpio: make the gpiochip a real device
GPIO chips have been around for years, but were never real devices,
instead they were piggy-backing on a parent device (such as a
platform_device or amba_device) but this was always optional.
GPIO chips could also exist without any device at all, with its
struct device *parent (ex *dev) pointer being set to null.

When sysfs was in use, a mock device would be created, with the
optional parent assigned, or just floating orphaned with NULL
as parent.

If sysfs is active, it will use this device as parent.

We now create a gpio_device struct containing a real
struct device and move the subsystem over to using that. The
list of struct gpio_chip:s is augmented to hold struct
gpio_device:s and we find gpio_chips:s by first looking up
the struct gpio_device.

The struct gpio_device is designed to stay around even if the
gpio_chip is removed, so as to satisfy users in userspace
that need a backing data structure to hold the state of the
session initiated with e.g. a character device even if there is
no physical chip anymore.

From this point on, gpiochips are devices.

Linus Walleij 58383c7842 gpio: change member .dev to .parent
The name .dev in a struct is normally reserved for a struct device
that is let us say a superclass to the thing described by the struct.
struct gpio_chip stands out by confusingly using a struct device *dev
to point to the parent device (such as a platform_device) that
represents the hardware. As we want to give gpio_chip:s real devices,
this is not working. We need to rename this member to parent.

This was done by two coccinelle scripts, I guess it is possible to
combine them into one, but I don't know such stuff. They look like
this:

@@
struct gpio_chip *var;
@@
-var->dev
+var->parent

and:

@@
struct gpio_chip var;
@@
-var.dev
+var.parent

and:

@@
struct bgpio_chip *var;
@@
-var->gc.dev
+var->gc.parent

Plus a few instances of bgpio that I couldn't figure out how
to teach Coccinelle to rewrite.

This patch hits all over the place, but I *strongly* prefer this
solution to any piecemal approaches that just exercise patch
mechanics all over the place. It mainly hits drivers/gpio and
drivers/pinctrl which is my own backyard anyway.

Johan Hovold 6ffcb79714 gpio: sysfs: use per-gpio locking
Add a per-gpio mutex to serialise attribute operations rather than use
one global mutex for all gpios and chips.

Having a single global lock for all gpios in a system adds unnecessary
latency to the sysfs interface, and especially when having gpio
controllers connected over slow buses.

Now that the global gpio-sysfs interrupt table is gone and with per-gpio
data in place, we can easily switch to using a more fine-grained locking
scheme.

Keep the global mutex to serialise the global (class) operations of gpio
export and unexport and chip removal.

Also document the locking assumptions made.

Note that this is also needed to fix a race between gpiod_export and
gpiod_unexport.

Remove gpiod_sysfs_set_active_low (and gpio_sysfs_set_active_low) which
allowed code to change the polarity of a gpio line even after it had

Drivers should not care, and generally does not know, about gpio-line
polarity which is a hardware feature that needs to be described by
firmware.

It is currently possible to define gpio-line polarity in device-tree and
acpi firmware or using platform data. Userspace can also change the
polarity through sysfs.

Note that drivers using the legacy gpio interface could still use
GPIOF_ACTIVE_LOW to change the polarity before exporting the gpio.

There are no in-kernel users of this interface.

direction from being changed) in their irq_request_resources callbacks

Instead a second, explicit and often redundant call to lock-as-irq is

Move the explicit call before the irq-request to match the unlock done
after the irq is later released. Note that this also fixes an irq leak,

Johan Hovold 483d821108 gpio: sysfs: fix memory leaks and device hotplug
Unregister GPIOs requested through sysfs at chip remove to avoid leaking
the associated memory and sysfs entries.

The stale sysfs entries prevented the gpio numbers from being exported
when the gpio range was later reused (e.g. at device reconnect).

This also fixes the related module-reference leak.

Note that kernfs makes sure that any on-going sysfs operations finish
before the class devices are unregistered and that further accesses
fail.

The chip exported flag is used to prevent gpiod exports during removal.
This also makes it harder to trigger, but does not fix, the related race
between gpiochip_remove and export_store, which is really a race with
gpiod_request that needs to be addressed separately.

Also note that this would prevent the crashes (e.g. NULL-dereferences)
at reconnect that affects pre-3.18 kernels, as well as use-after-free on
operations on open attribute files on pre-3.14 kernels (prior to
kernfs).

This patch is a first step towards making the gpiolib code more readable
by splitting it into logical parts.

Move all sysfs support to their own source file, and share static
members of gpiolib that need to be in the private gpiolib.h file. In
the future we will want to put some of them back into gpiolib.c, but this
first patch let us at least identify them.
