Weee, here we go again :-)

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10006651/

Last time around, my understanding was that, going forward,
the best solution was:

	virq = platform_get_irq(...)
	if (virq <= 0)
		return virq ? : -ENODEV;

i.e. map 0 to -ENODEV, pass other errors as-is, remove the dev_err

@Bjorn/Lorenzo did you have a change of heart?

Yes.  In 10006651 (Oct 20, 2017), I thought:

  irq = platform_get_irq(pdev, 0);
  if (irq <= 0)
    return -ENODEV;

was fine.  In 11066455 (Aug 7, 2019), I said I thought I was wrong and
that:

  platform_get_irq() is a generic interface and we have to be able to
  interpret return values consistently.  The overwhelming consensus
  among platform_get_irq() callers is to treat "irq < 0" as an error,
  and I think we should follow suit.
  ...
  I think the best pattern is:

    irq = platform_get_irq(pdev, i);
    if (irq < 0)
      return irq;

I still think what I said in 2019 is the right approach.  I do see
your comment in 10006651 about this pattern:

  if (virq <= 0)
    return virq ? : -ENODEV;

but IMHO it's too complicated for general use.  Admittedly, it's not
*very* complicated, but it's a relatively unusual C idiom and I
stumble over it every time I see it.  If 0 is a special case I think
it should be mapped to a negative error in arch-specific code, which I
think is what Linus T suggested in [1].

I think there's still a large consensus that "irq < 0" is the error
case.  In the tree today we have about 1400 callers of
platform_get_irq() and platform_get_irq_byname() [2].  Of those,
almost 900 check for "irq < 0" [3], while only about 150 check for
"irq <= 0" [4] and about 15 use some variant of a "irq ? : -ENODEV"
pattern.

The bottom line is that in drivers/pci, I'd like to see either a
single style or a compelling argument for why some checks should be
"irq < 0" and others should be "irq <= 0".

FTR, omitting the middle operand is a GNU extension.
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Conditionals.html
The valid C idiom would be virq ? virq : -ENODEV

Lorenzo, being both PCI maintainer and ARM employee should be in a
good position to change the arch-specific code for arm and arm64?

Careful. 0 is not a valid interrupt.

Should callers of platform_get_irq() check for a 0 return value?
About 900 of them do not.

Or should platform_get_irq() return a negative error instead of 0?
If 0 is not a valid interrupt, I think it would be easier to use the
interface if we made it so platform_get_irq() could never return 0,
which I think would also fit the interface documentation better:

 * Return: IRQ number on success, negative error number on failure.

Trying again -- I'm not quite catching your meaning, Thomas.

If platform_get_irq*() can return 0, but 0 is not a valid IRQ, I think
it's sort of complicated to parse that return value.  Drivers that
require an IRQ would do this:

  irq = platform_get_irq(pdev, i);
  if (irq < 0)
    return irq;
  if (irq == 0)
    return -EINVAL;         # error since driver requires IRQ
  return devm_request_irq(dev, irq, ...);

Drivers that can either use an IRQ or do polling would do this:

  irq = platform_get_irq(pdev, i);
  if (irq <= 0)
    return setup_polling();
  return devm_request_irq(dev, irq, ...);

I think those are sort of ungainly, especially the first.  If we made
it so those functions never returned 0, drivers that need an IRQ could
do this:

  irq = platform_get_irq(pdev, i);
  if (irq < 0)
    return irq;
  return devm_request_irq(dev, irq, ...);

and drivers that support polling could do this:

  irq = platform_get_irq(pdev, i);
  if (irq < 0)
    return setup_polling();
  return devm_request_irq(dev, irq, ...);

That seems a lot easier to get correct, and it matches what most of
the callers already do.

I don't know what I was looking at.

platform_get_irq() does the right thing already, so checking for irq < 0
is sufficient.

Sorry for the confusion!

Thanks, I was indeed confused!  Maybe we could reduce future confusion
by strengthening the comments slightly, e.g.,

  - * Return: IRQ number on success, negative error number on failure.
  + * Return: non-zero IRQ number on success, negative error number on failure.

I don't want to push my luck, but it's pretty hard to prove that
platform_get_irq() never returns 0.  What would you think of something

No objections from my side.

OK, thanks!

Aman, my suggestion for you is to include the patch below as the first
patch in your series.  Then post a v2 of it, making sure to cc:
everybody who commented on the first version.

Bjorn


driver core: platform: Specify that IRQ 0 is invalid

These interfaces return a negative error number or an IRQ:

  platform_get_irq()
  platform_get_irq_optional()
  platform_get_irq_byname()
  platform_get_irq_byname_optional()

The function comments suggest checking for error like this:

  irq = platform_get_irq(...);
  if (irq < 0)
    return irq;

which is what most callers (~900 of 1400) do, so it's implicit that IRQ 0
is invalid.  But some callers check for "irq <= 0", and it's not obvious
from the source that we never return an IRQ 0.

Make this more explicit by updating the comments to say that an IRQ number
is always non-zero and adding a WARN() if we ever do return zero.  If we do
return IRQ 0, it likely indicates a bug in the arch-specific parts of
platform_get_irq().

Relevant prior discussion at [1,2].
