Yes, gpio_is_valid() is not a direct substitute for boolean cs_gpio. It was a review comment to use gpio_is_valid() and quickly iterated another version with that change. Now that we see gpio_is_valid() is breaking the native chip select for gpio number 0. Shall i go back to using the boolean or do you have a better way to do this. > > In general it's quite hard to tie the description in the patch to the > code changes, not helped by the decision to do separate refactorings > like this conversion to gpio_is_valid() as part of the one patch.

However, Exynos4 and Exynos5 series currently available are all DT based. Support for DT and non-DT was taken good care. Revision number went to 5 for minor changes like 1. Missing documentation 2. Using gpio_is_valid() instead of boolean cs_gpio 3. Adding SignedOff-By and Acked-By > > I think some combination of smaller changes and a clearer working > through of the before and after states for both DT and non DT cases to > show that everything has been considered would help a lot. I may have > another stare at this but it's worrying how hard I'm needing to think. The intention of the patch was to fix the broken platforms by implementing dt bindings similar to generic SPI core in spi-s3c64xx.c. Current dt bindings: spi-s3c64xx.c is expects the cs-gpio" property in the SPI DT node and also defined under the "controller-data". Solution 1: Add support for "cs-gpios" property in the SPI DT node and remove "cs-gpio" from sub node "controller-data". Solution 2: As Javier suggested // Inverting the default of cs_gpio. and By default not having the "cs-gpio" property in the SPI dev node should mean that the "cs-gpio" property in the controller-data node should be used to signal the chip-select and having the "cs-gpio" property in the SPI node should mean that the native chip select should be used instead of a GPIO. That preserves the old DT binding semantic while making the GPIO to be optional // in this case spi-s3c64xx.c will continue to ignore the generic SPI "cs-gpios" implementation. I'm willing to implement any suggestion to fix this issue.

The problem isn't what you're trying to do, the problem is verifying that it has been done correctly - making sure that everything has been accounted for in the change itself.

Understand your concern. I will try to get it tested on as many platforms.
Hello Mark, I agree that the commit message could have a better description and I understand your concerns. I'm not an SPI expert by any means but I did my best to review the patches and provide feedback to Naveen on the first iterations of the series.

The SPI core will set spi->cs_gpio to -ENOENT if a Device Tree didn't use the "cs-gpios" property of if the format (explained in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/spi/spi-bus.txt) to specify a native/built-in line chip select is used: cs-gpios = <&gpio1 0 0> <0> cs0 : &gpio1 0 0 cs1 : native So in that case gpio_is_valid(spi->cs_gpio) will return false which is what Naveen wants in his patch. Now, a problem is that in the non-DT case the patch does not rely on the spi->cs_gpio value set by the SPI core but instead overwrites it with the value in cs->line. So as you said this would have been an issue if legacy non-DT board code used s3c64xx_spi_csinfo .line to specify that the built-in chip select should be used instead of a GPIO. But looking at the board files that sets struct spi_board_info .controller_data to struct s3c64xx_spi_csinfo I see that the the .line field is actually used to specify a GPIO pin and not a chip select. In fact there is only one user in mainline (arch/arm/mach-s3c64xx/mach-crag6410-module.c) that do this: #define S3C64XX_GPC(_nr) (S3C64XX_GPIO_C_START + (_nr)) static struct s3c64xx_spi_csinfo wm0010_spi_csinfo = { .line = S3C64XX_GPC(3), }; static struct spi_board_info wm1253_devs[] = { [0] = { .modalias = "wm0010", .max_speed_hz = 26 * 1000 * 1000, .bus_num = 0, .chip_select = 0, .mode = SPI_MODE_0, .irq = S3C_EINT(4), .controller_data = &wm0010_spi_csinfo, .platform_data = &wm0010_pdata, }, }; So, the .line field is used to specify a GPIO, not a chip select. So gpio_is_valid() should also be used to check that cs->line is a valid GPIO. If board file does not want to use a GPIO and wants to use a built-in chip select then it should either not use a struct s3c64xx_spi_csinfo at all or set .line to -ENOENT in order to be consistent with the SPI core. Now, looking at this I realize that there is a bug in the spi-s3c64xx driver since it does not check if spi->controller_data is NULL in the non-DT case which I believe it can be true. > In general it's quite hard to tie the description in the patch to the > code changes, not helped by the decision to do separate refactorings > like this conversion to gpio_is_valid() as part of the one patch.

So maybe Naveen can try doing a new series first reverting the offending commit and then on top of that adding the support for the generic "cs-gpios" DT property used by the SPI core? As I said before this patch is fixing a bug in the SPI driver, the first version of the series was posted on June, 10 so many other patches already depend on this fix. So it would be great if we can move this forward since this is hurting the platform support as a whole. Thanks a lot and best regards, Javier

I will try to get it tested on as many platforms. That's useful, but please note that it's mainly a code review thing.

This sort of "let's make everyone instabuggy" change is not good practice, especially when it's mixed in with some other not obviously related change, has an unclear benefit and is barely mentioned in the commit log - I found this through code review, not through it being a clearly intentional and considered part of the change. > As I said before this patch is fixing a bug in the SPI driver, the > first version of the series was posted on June, 10 so many other > patches already depend on this fix.

As I've said before this series is setting off lots of alarm bells - the large number of versions, the difficulty in understanding what it was supposed to do both for the overall goal of the series and the individual changes, and the fact that several people have found bugs for use cases other than your own (all the way up to removing non-DT support) are all saying that this is something that needs careful review and also making that review difficult. Code review is an important part of the process, we need people to work to make that review easy, address review comments and allow a reasonable time for the review to happen (something that's obviously going to be quicker with submissions that are easier to review).
