Up to now disabling the PWM is done using the PWMCR.EN register bit.
Setting this bit to zero results in the output pin driving a low value
independent of the polarity setting (PWMCR.POUTC).

There is only little documentation about expectations and requirements
in the PWM framework but the usual expectation seems to be that
disabling a PWM together with setting .duty_cycle = 0 results in the
output driving the inactive level. The pwm-bl driver for example uses
this setting to disable the backlight and with the pwm-imx27 driver
this results in an enabled backlight if the pwm signal is inverted.

Keep the PWMCR.EN bit always enabled and simulate a disabled PWM using
duty_cycle = 0 to fix this. Furthermore we have to drop the sw-reset
from apply() otherwise the PWMCR.EN is cleared too. Therefore the
pwm_imx27_wait_fifo_slot() is extended and renamed to guarantee a free
FIFO slot and to reflect the new meaning.

v2:
- fix driver remove function
- rename pwm_imx27_wait_fifo_slot
- pwm_imx27_get_fifo_slot now returns the number of used fifo slots
  rather than 0 on success (needed for next patch).

This sounds as if the pwm-imx27 behaviour is a reason to believe that
.duty_cycle = 0 + .enabled = false should drive the inactive level.

I'd write:

	backlight. Up to now however, this request makes the pwm-imx27
	enable the backlight if the PWM signal is inverted.

I'm not a big fan. IMHO the driver should report about reality and the
framework (and maybe the consumers) should be able to handle that
.get_state() reports

	.enabled = true
	.duty_cycle = 0

after

	.enabled = false

was requested.

I think you can simplify the code a bit using the following idiom:

	/* 
	 * comment as above
	 */
	
	if (!state->enabled)
		duty_cycle = 0;

	writel(duty_cycles, imx->mmio_base + MX3_PWMSAR);

With the change from the next patch I could also imagine to write a
smaller period in the !enabled case. The upside would be that the second
call in:

	pwm_apply(mypwm, { .enabled = false, .period = 3s });
	pwm_apply(mypwm, { .enabled = true, ... });

wouldn't take longer than a second in the average case.

@Thierry, we really need to agree on the expected behaviour in these
cases and document them.

This is wrong. You are supposed to assume the PWM is already off in
.remove and don't touch it.

That was what you suggested in v1.

I don't wanna but a specific user (pwm-bl driver) into the commit
message since this assumes that this fix is only needed because
of the pwm-bl driver.

So your suggestions will spam the pwm user with the ugly details?
IMHO the framework should abstract this since it is a nasty HW detail
the pwm user should not take care off.

I don't think so because this will throw aways the duty_cycle. What
should happen if the user disable the pwm by: state->enable = false and
enable it later again e.g. if you configure the pwm from the sysfs?
My assumption is that the previouse set duty-cycle should be applied
which isn't possible with your solution.

Nope it isn't. The hardware is still running after the remove call since
we don't enable/disable the HW anymore by toggling the PWMCR.EN bit. So
we need to do it here.

I think this is fine because for lack of definitive documentation
looking at the expectations of consumers is the only source we have to
somewhat justify what the lowlevel driver is expected to do. And if I
understood you correctly the pwm-bl driver is the one that the problems
surfaced with, isn't it?

sysfs caches the value anyhow and so do most consumers. Also duty_cycle
is a local variable here only. (That's at least what I assumed writing
the above snippet.)

The first call configures the PWM with .duty_cycle = 3s and the second
call then waits until a period is completed (doesn't it?) So completing
the 2nd command takes up to 3 seconds and 1.5 seconds on average. Before
your patch the second command was done instantanious.

Ah ok, there are now two different "off"s. Anyhow, I oppose to modify
the hardware state in .remove(). There are (I think) corner cases like
the backlight should remain on during reboot to show logs (or a splash
screen).

Yep the pwm-bl driver is the one causing the issue.

But you're suggestion is to reflect those details to the user-space or

Hm.. this seems a bit weird and and unexpected from the user
perspective. Is there any chance to document the behaviour of apply?

Which gets applied later on to the imx->duty_cycle.

Why does it wait till the period is completetd? It writes the 3s
duty_cycle into the PWMSAR register and goes on.

The whole patch is about dropping the PWMCR.EN from the apply hook, so
yes there are two kinds of "off".

No one should expect that a pwm-bl should work if the pwm driver is
going to be removed. Also this assumes that the pwm-bl driver don't
turn off the regulator. On my laptop the backlight is turned off/on
during reboot.

Thanks for the review :)
