There are 2 problems with the old iosf PMIC I2C bus arbritration code which need to be addressed: 1. The lockdep code complains about a possible deadlock in the iosf_mbi_[un]block_punit_i2c_access code: [ 6.712662] ====================================================== [ 6.712673] WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected [ 6.712685] 5.3.0-rc2+ #79 Not tainted [ 6.712692] ------------------------------------------------------ [ 6.712702] kworker/0:1/7 is trying to acquire lock: [ 6.712712] 00000000df1c5681 (iosf_mbi_block_punit_i2c_access_count_mutex){+.+.}, at: iosf_mbi_unblock_punit_i2c_access+0x13/0x90 [ 6.712739] but task is already holding lock: [ 6.712749] 0000000067cb23e7 (iosf_mbi_punit_mutex){+.+.}, at: iosf_mbi_block_punit_i2c_access+0x97/0x186 [ 6.712768] which lock already depends on the new lock.

But there is no way to tell the lockdep code about this and we really want to be able to run a kernel with lockdep enabled without these warnings being triggered. 2. The lockdep warning also points out another real problem, if 2 threads both are in a block of code protected by iosf_mbi_block_punit_i2c_access and the first thread to acquire the block exits before the second thread then the second thread will call mutex_unlock on iosf_mbi_punit_mutex, but it is not the thread which took the mutex and unlocking by another thread is not allowed. Fix this by getting rid of the notion of holding a mutex for the entire duration of the PMIC accesses, be it either from the PUnit side, or from an in kernel I2C driver. In general holding a mutex after exiting a function is a bad idea and the above problems show this case is no different. Instead 2 counters are now used, one for PMIC accesses from the PUnit and one for accesses from in kernel I2C code. When access is requested now the code will wait (using a waitqueue) for the counter of the other type of access to reach 0 and on release, if the counter reaches 0 the wakequeue is woken. Note that the counter approach is necessary to allow nested calls. The main reason for this is so that a series of i2c transfers can be done with the punit blocked from accessing the bus the whole time. This is necessary to be able to safely read/modify/write a PMIC register without racing with the PUNIT doing the same thing. Allowing nested iosf_mbi_block_punit_i2c_access() calls also is desirable from a performance pov since the whole dance necessary to block the PUnit from accessing the PMIC I2C bus is somewhat expensive.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
