SPI bus locking API to allow exclusive access to the SPI bus, especially, but not limited to, for the mmc_spi driver. Coded according to an outline from Grant Likely; here is his specification (accidentally swapped function names corrected): It requires 3 things to be added to struct spi_master. - 1 Mutex - 1 spin lock - 1 flag. The mutex protects spi_sync, and provides sleeping "for free" The spinlock protects the atomic spi_async call. The flag is set when the lock is obtained, and checked while holding the spinlock in spi_async(). If the flag is checked, then spi_async() must fail immediately. The current runtime API looks like this: spi_async(struct spi_device*, struct spi_message*); spi_sync(struct spi_device*, struct spi_message*); The API needs to be extended to this: spi_async(struct spi_device*, struct spi_message*) spi_sync(struct spi_device*, struct spi_message*) spi_bus_lock(struct spi_master*) /* although struct spi_device* might be easier */ spi_bus_unlock(struct spi_master*) spi_async_locked(struct spi_device*, struct spi_message*) spi_sync_locked(struct spi_device*, struct spi_message*) Drivers can only call the last two if they already hold the spi_master_lock(). spi_bus_lock() obtains the mutex, obtains the spin lock, sets the flag, and releases the spin lock before returning. It doesn't even need to sleep while waiting for "in-flight" spi_transactions to complete because its purpose is to guarantee no additional transactions are added. It does not guarantee that the bus is idle. spi_bus_unlock() clears the flag and releases the mutex, which will wake up any waiters. The difference between spi_async() and spi_async_locked() is that the locked version bypasses the check of the lock flag. Both versions need to obtain the spinlock. The difference between spi_sync() and spi_sync_locked() is that spi_sync() must hold the mutex while enqueuing a new transfer. spi_sync_locked() doesn't because the mutex is already held. Note however that spi_sync must *not* continue to hold the mutex while waiting for the transfer to complete, otherwise only one transfer could be queued up at a time! Almost no code needs to be written. The current spi_async() and spi_sync() can probably be renamed to __spi_async() and __spi_sync() so that spi_async(), spi_sync(), spi_async_locked() and spi_sync_locked() can just become wrappers around the common code. spi_sync() is protected by a mutex because it can sleep spi_async() needs to be protected with a flag and a spinlock because it can be called atomically and must not sleep Signed-off-by: NErnst Schwab <eschwab@online.de> [grant.likely@secretlab.ca: use spin_lock_irqsave()] Signed-off-by: NGrant Likely <grant.likely@secretlab.ca> Tested-by: NMatt Fleming <matt@console-pimps.org> Tested-by: NAntonio Ospite <ospite@studenti.unina.it>
