Agreed. At the minimum, it should have been written as an explicit
memcpy() in the few drivers that have that pattern instead of a benign
looking struct assignment, but even then there is nothing good about it
really. Notably, the largest member by far is the 'struct device', and
that by itself should be a red flag as a device is never meant to be
allocated statically (this used to be common in pre-DT days, but
even then was considered bad style).

I suppose the i2c_add_adapter()/i2c_add_numbered_adapter()
interface could be redesigned to handle this better, since every
driver needs to set the same few fields. That however requires finding
someone to spend the effort on coming up with a nice design and
converting lots of drivers over.

Good.


I don't actually see a limitation though. Viresh, what is the problem
you see for having multiple controllers?

I thought this would be a problem in that case as we are using the global
virtio_adapter here.

+   i2c_set_adapdata(vi->adap, vi);

Multiple calls to probe() will end up updating the same pointer inside adap.

Same here, overwrite.

ACPI */
+   ACPI_COMPANION_SET(>adap->dev, ACPI_COMPANION(pdev));
+   vi->adap->timeout = HZ / 10;

These may be fine, but still not ideal I believe.

+   ret = i2c_add_adapter(vi->adap);
i
This should be a problem as well, we must be adding this to some sort of list,
doing some RPM stuff, etc ?

Jie, the solution is to allocate memory for adap at runtime in probe and remove
the virtio_adapter structure completely.


If you want to support that. Then I think we don't need to change the
following at all.


+    .algo = _algorithm,
+
+    return ret;
+
+    vi->adap = virtio_adapter;

This is strange, why are you allocating memory for adapter twice ?
Once for virtio_adapter and once for vi->adap ? Either fill the fields
directly for v->adap here and remove virtio_adapter or make vi->adap a
pointer.

Yes, your previous version was partly okay but you don't need the
virtio_algorithm structure to be allocated. There are only 4 fields you are
updating here, just fill them directly in vi->adap.

(FWIW, I also suggested the same when I said
"Either fill the fields directly for v->adap here and remove virtio_adapter".
)

See how drivers/i2c/busses/i2c-versatile.c and most of the other drivers have
done it.

I thought this would be a problem in that case as we are using the global
virtio_adapter here.

+   vi->adap = _adapter;
+   i2c_set_adapdata(vi->adap, vi);

Multiple calls to probe() will end up updating the same pointer inside adap.

+   vi->adap->dev.parent = >dev;

Same here, overwrite.

+   /* Setup ACPI node for controlled devices which will be probed through 
ACPI */
+   ACPI_COMPANION_SET(>adap->dev, ACPI_COMPANION(pdev));
+   vi->adap->timeout = HZ / 10;

These may be fine, but still not ideal I believe.

+   ret = i2c_add_adapter(vi->adap);
i
This should be a problem as well, we must be adding this to some sort of list,
doing some RPM stuff, etc ?

Jie, the solution is to allocate memory for adap at runtime in probe and remove
the virtio_adapter structure completely.

Allowing multiple virtio-i2c controllers in one system, and multiple i2c
devices attached to each controller is clearly something that has to work.

I don't actually see a limitation though. Viresh, what is the problem
you see for having multiple controllers?

Actually, I believe multiple devices really should be possible.

The major benefit of virtio-i2c is either bridging certan real bus'es
into a confined workload, or creating virtual hw testbeds w/o having to
write a complete emulation (in this case, for dozens of different i2c
controllers) - and having multiple i2c interfaces in one machine isn't
exactly rare.

And FWIW, I still have my concerns about mutex-lock and
I2C_CLASS_DEPRECATED, but yeah we need Wolfram to confirm on them.

LGTM otherwise.

FWIW, this limits this driver to support a single device ever. We
can't bind multiple devices to this driver now. Yeah, perhaps we will
never be required to do so, but who knows.

[PATCH v8] i2c: virtio: add a virtio i2c frontend driver

2021-03-15 Thread Jie Deng
Add an I2C bus driver for virtio para-virtualization.

The controller can be emulated by the backend driver in
any device model software by following the virtio protocol.

The device specification can be found on
https://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/virtio-comment/202101/msg8.html.

By following the specification, people may implement different
backend drivers to emulate different controllers according to
their needs.

Changes in v8:
- Make virtio_i2c.adap a pointer.
- Mark members in virtio_i2c_req with cacheline_aligned.
 
Changes in v7:
- Remove unused headers.
- Update Makefile and Kconfig.
- Add the cleanup after completing reqs.
- Avoid memcpy for data marked with I2C_M_DMA_SAFE.
- Fix something reported by kernel test robot.

Changes in v6:
- Move struct virtio_i2c_req into the driver.
- Use only one buf in struct virtio_i2c_req.

Changes in v5:
- The first version based on the acked specification.
