Subject: RE: [PATCH] USB TYPEC: RT1711H Type-C Chip Driver

Hi Guenter,

  For now, it looks like there are two ways to implement vendor data. It would be nice to hear your suggestion.

  1. Set vendor data in the data field of of_device_id.
If I understand correctly, this would be the one more like you mentioned before.
In this case, tcpci_rt1711h_data needs to be defined inside tcpci.c or defined by other file(tcpci_rt1711h.c) but extern in tcpci.c.

For example:
static struct tcpci_vendor_data tcpci_rt1711h_data = {
.init = rt1711h_init;
.irq_handler = rt1711h_irq_handler
};
OR
extern struct tcpci_vendor_data tcpci_rt1711h_data;

Then, put this structure here
static const struct of_device_id tcpci_of_match[] = {
{ .compatible = "usb,tcpci", },
{ .compatible = "richtek,rt1711h", .data = (void *)&tcpci_rt1711h_data },
{},
};

For other vendors who want to handle vendor data also need to add these code inside tcpci.c.
We are not sure that's what you expect or not.


2. In tcpci.c, create a static list_head used to maintain vendor data.
TCPCI driver provides an API for those vendors to add their vendor data in the list.
Then, we could find vendor data in the list according to compatible string.

For example:
In tcpci.h
struct tcpci_vendor_data {
const char *compatible;
int (*init)(...);
int (*irq_handler)(...);
struct list_head list;
};
/* This function adds tcpci_vendor_data to the list */
extern int tcpci_register_vendor_data(struct tcpci_vendor_data *data);

In tcpci.c
static LIST_HEAD(tcpci_vendor_data_list);
int tcpci_register_vendor_data(...)
{
...
list_add(...);
...
}

tcpci_init()
{
...
/* Find correct vendor data */
list_for_each(...)
...
}

In this case, vendor needs to guarantee that vendor data is added to the list before tcpci starts to work.

Revision 1.0. Note that I did not find revision 1.2, only Revision 1.0 and Revision 2.0 version 1.0.

My suggestion would be to provide an API for vendor specific code.

That would defeat the purpose. It would be better to implement vendor specific code in tcpci_rt1711h.c and call it from tcpci.c

Possible example:

struct tcpci_vendor_data {
int (*init)(...);
int (*irq_handler)(...);
...
}

static irqreturn_t tcpci_irq(...)
{
struct tcpci *tcpci = dev_id;

...
if (tcpci->vendor_data->irq_handler) {
ret = (*tcpci->vendor_data->irq_handler)(...);
...
}
...
}

tcpci_init()
{
struct tcpci_vendor_data *vendor_data = &tcpci_rt1711h_data;
// eg from devicetree compatible property

...
if (vendor_data->init) {
ret = (*vendor_data->init)(...);
if (ret)
return ret;
}
...
}

If there are vendor specific interrupts, I would assume that vendor specific code will have to be called. Either the generic interrupt handler can call vendor specific code, or the vendor specific code handles the interrupt and calls the generic handler. I don't know at this point which one is better.

SGTM.

That is bad; you don't want to hold up teh system for that much.
Try to use usleep_range().

I would think so.

Note that the driver is, at this point, fair game to change to make it work with your chip. The only condition is that a standard chip should still work, ie you should not make any changes which would cause the driver to _only_ work with your chip. Everything else is fair game.
