This commit defines an interface allowing multi-phase reset. This aims
to solve a problem of the actual single-phase reset (built in
DeviceClass and BusClass): reset behavior is dependent on the order
in which reset handlers are called. In particular doing external
side-effect (like setting an qemu_irq) is problematic because receiving
object may not be reset yet.

The Resettable interface divides the reset in 3 well defined phases.
To reset an object tree, all 1st phases are executed then all 2nd then
all 3rd. See the comments in include/hw/resettable.h for a more complete
description. The interface defines 3 phases to let the future
possibility of holding an object into reset for some time.

The qdev/qbus reset in DeviceClass and BusClass will be modified in
following commits to use this interface. A mechanism is provided
to allow executing a transitional reset handler in place of the 2nd
phase which is executed in children-then-parent order inside a tree.
This will allow to transition devices and buses smoothly while
keeping the exact current qdev/qbus reset behavior for now.

Documentation will be added in a following commit.

The Resettable interface divides the reset in 3 well defined phases.
To reset an object tree, all 1st phases are executed then all 2nd then
all 3rd. See the comments in include/hw/resettable.h for a more complete
description. The interface defines 3 phases to let the future
possibility of holding an object into reset for some time.

The qdev/qbus reset in DeviceClass and BusClass will be modified in
following commits to use this interface. A mechanism is provided
to allow executing a transitional reset handler in place of the 2nd
phase which is executed in children-then-parent order inside a tree.
This will allow to transition devices and buses smoothly while
keeping the exact current qdev/qbus reset behavior for now.

Documentation will be added in a following commit.

We might already have a 'uniq' makefile function to do:

or maybe was it with $filter? I can't find it/remember, too tired.


You can use $sort to remove duplicates in make.


Ah $(sort ...) thanks, I was too tired to remember it =)

[PATCH v7 03/11] hw/core: create Resettable QOM interface

2020-01-15 Thread Damien Hedde
This commit defines an interface allowing multi-phase reset. This aims
to solve a problem of the actual single-phase reset (built in
DeviceClass and BusClass): reset behavior is dependent on the order
in which reset handlers are called. In particular doing external
side-effect (like setting an qemu_irq) is problematic because receiving
object may not be reset yet.

The Resettable interface divides the reset in 3 well defined phases.
To reset an object tree, all 1st phases are executed then all 2nd then
all 3rd. See the comments in include/hw/resettable.h for a more complete
description. The interface defines 3 phases to let the future
possibility of holding an object into reset for some time.

The qdev/qbus reset in DeviceClass and BusClass will be modified in
following commits to use this interface. A mechanism is provided
to allow executing a transitional reset handler in place of the 2nd
phase which is executed in children-then-parent order inside a tree.
This will allow to transition devices and buses smoothly while
keeping the exact current qdev/qbus reset behavior for now.

Documentation will be added in a following commit.

+ * progress of a reset operation by providing a ResettableState structure.
+ * The functions defined in this module take care of updating the
+ * state of the reset.
+ * The base class implementation of the interface provides this
+ * state and implements the associated method: get_state.
+ *
+ * Concrete object implementations (typically specific devices
+ * such as a UART model) should provide the functions
+ * for the phases.enter, phases.hold and phases.exit methods, which
+ * they can set in their class init function, either directly or
+ * by calling resettable_class_set_parent_phases().
+ * The phase methods are guaranteed to only only ever be called once
+ * for any reset event, in the order 'enter', 'hold', 'exit'.
+ * An object will always move quickly from 'enter' to 'hold'
+ * but might remain in 'hold' for an arbitrary period of time
+ * before eventually reset is deasserted and the 'exit' phase is called.
+ * Object implementations should be prepared for functions handling
+ * inbound connections from other devices (such as qemu_irq handler
+ * functions) to be called at any point during reset after their
+ * 'enter' method has been called.
+ *
+ * Users of a resettable object should not call these methods
+ * directly, but instead use the function resettable_reset().
+ *
+ * @phases.enter: This phase is called when the object enters reset. It
+ * should reset local state of the object, but it
