pci_intx() is a hybrid function which can sometimes be managed through devres. To remove this hybrid nature from pci_intx(), it is necessary to port users to either an always-managed or a never-managed version. hda_intel enables its PCI-Device with pcim_enable_device(). Thus, it needs the always-managed version. Replace pci_intx() with pcim_intx().

But, the current code can be a bit inconsistent about the original intx value. pcim_intx() always stores !enable to res->orig_intx unconditionally, and it means that the orig_intx value gets overridden at each time pcim_intx() gets called.Yes.quoted
Meanwhile, HD-audio driver does release and re-acquire the interrupt after disabling MSI when something goes wrong, and pci_intx() call above is a part of that procedure. So, it can rewrite the res->orig_intx to another value by retry without MSI. And after the driver removal, it'll lead to another state.I'm not sure that I understand this paragraph completely. Still, could a solution for the driver on the long-term just be to use pci_intx()?pci_intx() misses the restore of the original value, so it's no long-term solution, either.Sure that is missing – I was basically asking whether the driver could live without that feature. Consider that point obsolete, see belowquoted
What I meant is that pcim_intx() blindly assumes the negative of the passed argument as the original state, which isn't always true. e.g. when the driver calls it twice with different values, a wrong value may be remembered.Ah, I see – thoguh the issue is when it's called several times with the *same* value, isn't it? E.g. pcim_intx(pdev, 1); // 0 is remembered as the old value pcim_intx(pdev, 1); // 0 is falsely remembered as the old value Also, it would seem that calling the function for the first time like that: pcim_intx(pdev, 0); // old value: 1 is at least incorrect, because INTx should be 0 per default, shouldn't it? Could then even be a 1st class bug, because INTx would end up being enabled despite having been disabled all the time.Yeah, and the unexpected restore can happen even with a single call of pcim_intx(), if the driver calls it unnecessarily.quoted

That said, I thought of something like below.At first glance that looks like a good idea to me, thanks for working this out! IMO you can submit that as a patch so we can discuss it separately.Sure, I'm going to submit later.
I just took a look into the old implementation of pci_intx() (there was
no pcim_intx() back then), before I started cleaning up PCI's devres.
This what it looked like before
25216afc9db53d85dc648aba8fb7f6d31f2c8731:
void pci_intx(struct pci_dev *pdev, int enable)
{
u16 pci_command, new;
pci_read_config_word(pdev, PCI_COMMAND, &pci_command);
if (enable)
new = pci_command & ~PCI_COMMAND_INTX_DISABLE;
else
new = pci_command | PCI_COMMAND_INTX_DISABLE;
if (new != pci_command) {
struct pci_devres *dr;
pci_write_config_word(pdev, PCI_COMMAND, new);
dr = find_pci_dr(pdev);
if (dr && !dr->restore_intx) {
dr->restore_intx = 1;
dr->orig_intx = !enable;
}
}
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(pci_intx);
If I'm not mistaken the old version did not have the problem because
the value to be restored only changed if new != pci_command.
That should always be correct, what do you think?
If so, only my commit 25216afc9db53d85dc648aba8fb7f6d31f2c8731 needs to
be fixed.
Thanks,
P.
