Commit Message

Linus Walleij Nov. 30, 2017, 9:26 a.m. UTC
Add a hardirq handler to the GPIO userspace event loop, making
sure to pick up the timestamp there, as close as possible in time
relative to the actual event causing the interrupt.

Tested with a simple pushbutton GPIO on ux500 and seems to work
fine.

now that you have a hardirq handler, do you even need IRQF_ONESHOT? How
about using the hardirq handler to mask $this gpio's IRQ, then run
thread without IRQF_ONESHOT? This would help a in cases where the IRQ
line is shared.

Perhaps that should be done in a separate patch, though?

FWIW:

u64? ktime_get_real_ns() returns u64 and struct gpioevent_data
has __u64 for timestamp.

Yeah maybe ... I'm a bit uncertain even about this.

We have GPIOs on slow (I2C, SPI) expanders, and they
sometimes need to go out and read that to even see what
IRQ that fired.

With this construction I *think* what happens is that it
timestamps it, then figures out (with some slow bus traffic)
if this IRQ was even ours and then calls the thread, if it was.
If it was not our IRQ the timestamp is just left crufting around.

Without shared IRQF_ONESHOT I am worried that something
else (shared) will come in between and pollute my timestamp.

Yours,
Linus Walleij

OK sorry, fixing it. Thanks for noticing!

This is not on next. Will it miss this merge window?

I realized yesterday when doing a security fix that it was missing.

Because I didn't get the merge conflict I expected :D

So I merged it. Don't worry. Sorry for the fuzz!

No problem, I'll refetch linux-next tomorrow or the day after and start
testing it.

Thanks
