Commit Message

clk_unregister() is currently not implemented and it is required when
a clock provider module needs to be unloaded.

Normally the clock supplier module is prevented to be unloaded by
taking reference on the module in clk_get().

For cases when the clock supplier module deinitializes despite the
consumers of its clocks holding a reference on the module, e.g. when
the driver is unbound through "unbind" sysfs attribute, there are
empty clock ops added. These ops are assigned temporarily to struct
clk and used until all consumers release the clock, to avoid invoking
callbacks from the module which just got its driver remove() callback
called on it.

Changes since v3 of the original patch [1]:
 - reparent all children to the orphan list instead of leaving
   the clock unregistered when it has child clocks,
 - removed unnecessary prerequisite checks in clk_debug_unregister(),
 - struct clk is now being freed only when the last clock consumer
   calls clk_put(),
 - empty clock ops are used after clk_unregister() has been called
   until all references to the clock are released and the clock
   object is freed.

Don't use "clk_dummy_*" here. The use of dummy often implies that
operations will return success in the absence of actual hardware but
these return an error, and rightly so. So maybe rename the functions and
clk_ops instance to something like "clk_nodev_*" or "clk_missing_*"?

This looks pretty good. A remaining problem is re-loading the clock
provider module will have string name conflicts with the old
unregistered clocks (but not yet released) clocks during calls to
__clk_lookup.

The best solution would be to refactor clk.c to not use string name
lookups but that is probably too big of an issue for the purpose of this
series (but it will happen some day).

A short term solution would be to poison the clock's string name here.
Reallocate the clk->name string with some poison data so that name
conflicts don't occur. What do you think?

Mike

Hmm, this is more about a driver being removed rather than the device.
Then perhaps we could make it __clk_nodrv_* or clk_nodrv_* ?

But the clock is being dropped from the clock tree immediately in this
function. After the hlist_del_init() call below the clock is not present
on any clocks list. Upon clock release only the memory allocated for
the clock is freed.

This shouldn't be necessary, for the reason described above. I've tested
multiple registrations when a clock was being referenced by a consumer
driver and it worked well.

I'm still a bit unsure about the kref reference counting, but I'd would
assume it is good to have. It prevents the kernel to crash in some
situations. Many other subsystems/drivers crash miserably when a driver
gets unbound using the sysfs "unbind" attribute. However, if it is assumed
that user space needs to keep track of respective resource references
and should know what it does when unbinding drivers, then we could probably
do without the kref. I'm seriously sceptical though about letting user
space to crash the kernel in fairly simple steps, it just doesn't sound
right.

clk_nodrv_* sounds good.

You are correct. Not sure why I thought that the clock being
unregistered was also getting pushed to the orphan list.

Let's leave the kref bits in. If we can prove that they are unnecessary
in the future then they can always be removed.

This series looks good, barring the s/dummy/no_drv/ rename.  Russell's
ACK is needed for patch #1.
