pwm: Fix deadlock warning when removing PWM device

2019-06-15T09:53:05Z

[ Upstream commit 347ab9480313737c0f1aaa08e8f2e1a791235535 ] This patch fixes deadlock warning if removing PWM device when CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING is enabled. This issue can be reproceduced by the following steps on the R-Car H3 Salvator-X board if the backlight is disabled: # cd /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0 # echo 0 > export # ls device export npwm power pwm0 subsystem uevent unexport # cd device/driver # ls bind e6e31000.pwm uevent unbind # echo e6e31000.pwm > unbind [ 87.659974] ====================================================== [ 87.666149] WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected [ 87.672327] 5.0.0 #7 Not tainted [ 87.675549] ------------------------------------------------------ [ 87.681723] bash/2986 is trying to acquire lock: [ 87.686337] 000000005ea0e178 (kn->count#58){++++}, at: kernfs_remove_by_name_ns+0x50/0xa0 [ 87.694528] [ 87.694528] but task is already holding lock: [ 87.700353] 000000006313b17c (pwm_lock){+.+.}, at: pwmchip_remove+0x28/0x13c [ 87.707405] [ 87.707405] which lock already depends on the new lock.

We should just move pwmchip_sysfs_unexport() where it belongs, which is right after pwmchip_sysfs_unexport_children(). In that case, we do not need separate functions anymore either. We also really want to remove sysfs irrespective of whether or not the chip will be removed as a result of pwmchip_remove(). We can only assume that the driver will be gone after that, so we shouldn't leave any dangling sysfs files around. This warning disappears if we move pwmchip_sysfs_unexport() to the top of pwmchip_remove(), pwmchip_sysfs_unexport_children(). That way it is also outside of the pwm_lock section, which indeed doesn't seem to be needed. Moving the pwmchip_sysfs_export() call outside of that section also seems fine and it'd be perfectly symmetric with pwmchip_remove() again. So, this patch fixes them.

pwm: Send a uevent on the pwmchip device upon channel sysfs (un)export

2018-10-12T11:51:33Z

This patch sends a uevent (KOBJ_CHANGE) on the pwmchipN device, everytime a pwmX channel has been exported/unexported via sysfs. This allows udev to implement rules on such events, like: SUBSYSTEM=="pwm*", PROGRAM="/bin/sh -c '\ chown -R root:gpio /sys/class/pwm && chmod -R 770 /sys/class/pwm;\ chown -R root:gpio /sys/devices/platform/soc/*.pwm/pwm/pwmchip* && chmod -R 770 /sys/devices/platform/soc/*.pwm/pwm/pwmchip*\ '" This is a replacement patch for commit 7e5d1fd75c3d ("pwm: Set class for exported channels in sysfs"), see [1]. basic testing: $ udevadm monitor --environment & $ echo 0 > /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/export KERNEL[197.321736] change /devices/.../pwm/pwmchip0 (pwm) ACTION=change DEVPATH=/devices/.../pwm/pwmchip0 EXPORT=pwm0 SEQNUM=2045 SUBSYSTEM=pwm [1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/9/25/713 Signed-off-by: Fabrice Gasnier Tested-by: Gottfried Haider Tested-by: Michal Vokáč Signed-off-by: Thierry Reding

Revert "pwm: Set class for exported channels in sysfs"

2018-10-12T11:51:11Z

This reverts commit 7e5d1fd75c3dde9fc10c4472b9368089d1b81d00 ("pwm: Set class for exported channels in sysfs") as it causes regression with multiple pwm chip[1], when exporting a pwm channel (echo X > export): - ABI (Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-pwm) states pwmX should be created in /sys/class/pwm/pwmchipN/pwmX - Reverted patch causes new entry to be also created directly in /sys/class/pwm/pwmX - 1st time, exporting pwmX will create an entry in /sys/class/pwm/pwmX - class attributes are added under pwmX folder, such as export, unexport npwm, symlinks. This is wrong as it belongs to pwmchipN. It may cause bad behavior and report wrong values. - when another export happens on another pwmchip, it can't be created (e.g. -EEXIST). This is causing the issue with multiple pwmchip. Example on stm32 (stm32429i-eval) platform: $ ls /sys/class/pwm pwmchip0 pwmchip4 $ cd /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip0/ $ echo 0 > export $ ls /sys/class/pwm pwm0 pwmchip0 pwmchip4 $ cd /sys/class/pwm/pwmchip4/ $ echo 0 > export sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/class/pwm/pwm0' ...Exception stack follows...

pwm: Set class for exported channels in sysfs

2017-12-05T08:24:58Z

Notifications for devices without bus or class set get dropped by dev_uevent_filter(). Adding the class to the exported child matches what the GPIO subsystem is doing. With this change exporting a channel triggers a udev event, which gives userspace a chance to fixup permissions and makes it possible for non-root users to make use of the PWM subsystem.
