Hi, This series centralizes OTG/Dual-role functionality in the kernel. As of now I've got Dual-role functionality working pretty reliably on dra7-evm and am437x-gp-evm. NOTE: my am437x-gp-evm broke so I couldn't test v8 on it. But the changes since v7 are trivial and shouldn't impact am437x-gp-evm. DWC3 controller and platform related patches will be sent separately. Series is based on v4.6-rc1 and depends on first 2 patches of [1] [1] - OTG fsm cleanup - https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/3/30/186 Why?: ---- Currently there is no central location where OTG/dual-role functionality is implemented in the Linux USB stack and every USB controller driver is doing their own thing for OTG/dual-role. We can benefit from code-reuse and simplicity by adding the OTG/dual-role core driver. Newer OTG cores support standard host interface (e.g. xHCI) so host and gadget functionality are no longer closely knit like older cores. There needs to be a way to co-ordinate the operation of the host and gadget controllers in dual-role mode. i.e. to stop and start them from a central location. This central location should be the USB OTG/dual-role core. Host and gadget controllers might be sharing resources and can't be always running. One has to be stopped for the other to run. This couldn't be done till now but can be done from the OTG core. What?: ----- The OTG/dual-role core consists of a set of APIs that allow registration of OTG controller device and OTG capable host and gadget controllers. - The OTG controller driver can provide the OTG capabilities and the Finite State Machine work function via 'struct usb_otg_config' at the time of registration i.e. usb_otg_register(); struct usb_otg *usb_otg_register(struct device *dev, struct usb_otg_config *config); int usb_otg_unregister(struct device *dev); /** * struct usb_otg_config - otg controller configuration * @caps: otg capabilities of the controller * @ops: otg fsm operations * @otg_work: optional custom otg state machine work function */ struct usb_otg_config { struct usb_otg_caps *otg_caps; struct otg_fsm_ops *fsm_ops; void (*otg_work)(struct work_struct *work); }; The dual-role state machine is built-into the OTG core so nothing special needs to be provided if only dual-role functionality is desired. The low level OTG controller driver ops are povided via 'struct otg_fsm_ops *fsm_ops' in the 'struct usb_otg_config'. After registration, the OTG core waits for host, gadget controller and the gadget function driver to be registered. Once all resources are available it instantiates the Finite State Machine (FSM). The host/gadget controllers are started/stopped according to the FSM. - Host and gadget controllers that are a part of OTG/dual-role port must use the OTG core provided APIs to add/remove the host/gadget. i.e. hosts must use usb_otg_add_hcd() usb_otg_remove_hcd(),, gadgets must use usb_otg_add_gadget_udc() usb_del_gadget_udc(). This ensures that the host and gadget controllers are not started till the state machine is ready and the right bus conditions are met. It also allows the host and gadget controllers to provide the OTG controller device to link them together. For Device tree boots the related OTG controller is automatically picked up via the 'otg-controller' property in the Host/Gadget controller nodes. int usb_otg_add_hcd(struct usb_hcd *hcd, unsigned int irqnum, unsigned long irqflags, struct device *otg_dev); void usb_otg_remove_hcd(struct usb_hcd *hcd); int usb_otg_add_gadget_udc(struct device *parent, struct usb_gadget *gadget, struct device *otg_dev); usb_del_gadget_udc() must be used for removal. - During the lifetime of the FSM, the OTG controller driver can provide inputs event changes using usb_otg_sync_inputs(). The OTG core will then schedule the FSM work function (or internal dual-role state machine) to update the FSM state. The FSM then calls the OTG controller operations (fsm_ops) as necessary. void usb_otg_sync_inputs(struct usb_otg *otg); - The following 2 functions are provided as helpers for use by the OTG controller driver to start/stop the host/gadget controllers. int usb_otg_start_host(struct usb_otg *otg, int on); int usb_otg_start_gadget(struct usb_otg *otg, int on); - The following function is provided for use by the USB host stack to sync OTG related events to the OTG state machine. e.g. change in host_bus->b_hnp_enable, gadget->b_hnp_enable int usb_otg_kick_fsm(struct device *otg_device); Changelog: --------- v8: - split out start/stop gadget and connect/disconnect operations. - make CONFIG_OTG dpend on CONFIG_USB_GADGET as well apart from CONFIG_USB - use create_freezable_workqueue() for OTG work as per Peter's suggestion. - remove usb-otg.h as we're not initializing any OTG timers. - don't include unnecessary headers in usb-otg.c (i.e. hrtimer.h & ktime.h)Since you have agreed to move CONFIG_USB_OTG out of HCD, I suggest you can have a folder to put current OTG and OTG_FSM stuffs under the root of usb folder, it can benefit the user who wants to add their dual-role switch driver or OTG driver. What do you think?
Yes, I will give it a try and post if any problems. -- cheers, -roger -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-usb" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
