acpi_dev_install_notify_handler() and acpi_dev_remove_notify_handler()
are wrappers around ACPICA installers. They are meant to save some
duplicated code from drivers. However as we're moving towards drivers
operating on platform_device they become a bit inconvenient to use as
inside the driver code we mostly want to use driver data of platform
device instead of ACPI device.

Make notify handlers installer wrappers more generic, while still
saving some code that would be duplicated otherwise.

Notes:
    So one solution could be to just replace acpi_device with
    platform_device as an argument in those functions. However I don't
    believe this is a correct solution, as it is very often the case that
    drivers declare their own private structures which gets allocated during
    the .probe() callback, and become the heart of the driver. When drivers
    do that it makes much more sense to just pass the private structure
    to the notify handler instead of forcing user to dance with the
    platform_device or acpi_device.

That's fair enough, but ->

The wrapper now takes exactly the same arguments as the wrapped
function, so what exactly is the point of having it?  The return value
type?

Here at least there is the extra workqueues synchronization point.

That said, why exactly is it better to use acpi_handle instead of a
struct acpi_device pointer?

Realistically, in a platform driver you'll need the latter to obtain
the former anyway.

I considered removing the wrapper altogether, but decided not to do so.
One trivial advantage of leaving this wrapper is the return value type as
you noticed, another is that the removal wrapper actually does something
extra and removing it would result in duplicate code among the drivers.
So I didn't really want to remove the 'install' wrapper but leave the
'remove' wrapper, as I think this might be confusing for the future reader.
In my mind if something is removed by the wrapper it should also be
installed by the wrapper.

I wanted to make the wrapper as close as possible to the wrapped function.
This way it would be easier to remove it in the future i.e if we ever deem
extra synchronization not worth it etc. What the ACPICA function need to
install a wrapper is a handle not a pointer to a device.
So there is no need for a middle man.

I don't want to introduce arbitrary limitations where they are not necessary.
It is often the case that driver allocates it's own private struct using kmalloc
family of functions, and that structure already contains everything that is
needed to remove the handler, so why force ? There are already examples
in the drivers that do that i.e in acpi_video the function
acpi_video_dev_add_notify_handler() uses raw ACPICA handler to install
a notify handler and it passes private structure there.
So there is value in leaving the choice of an actual type to the user of the
API.

To summarize:
I would say the wrappers are mostly unnecessary, but they actually save
some duplicate code in the drivers, so I decided to leave them, as I don't
want to introduce duplicate code if I can avoid that.

Thanks !

Taking a struct acpi_device pointer as the first argument is part of
duplication reduction, however, because in the most common case it
saves the users of it the need to dereference the struct acpi_device
they get from ACPI_COMPANION() in order to obtain the handle.

Arguably, acpi_handle is an ACPICA concept and it is better to reduce
its usage outside ACPICA.

I'm not sure what you mean.  This patch is changing existing functions.

No, if the user has a pointer to struct acpi_device already, there is
no difference between passing this and passing the acpi_handle from it
except for the extra dereference in the latter case.

If the user doesn't have a struct acpi_device pointer, let them use
the raw ACPICA handler directly and worry about the synchronization
themselves.

The wrappers are there to cover the most common case, not to cover all cases.

What duplicate code do you mean, exactly?

IMV you haven't really explained why this particular patch is
necessary or even useful.

User don't even have to use acpi device anywhere, as he can choose
to use ACPI_HANDLE() instead on 'struct device*' and never interact
with acpi device directly.

Use of acpi_handle is deeply entrenched in the kernel. There is even
a macro ACPI_HANDLE() that returns acpi_handle. I would say it's
way too late to limit it to ACPICA internal code.

That's true, but those functions aren't yet deeply entrenched in the
kernel yet, so in my view how they should look like should still be
a subject for discussion, as for now they're only used locally in
drivers/acpi, and my next patchset, that would remove .notify in
platform directory would spread them more, and would
make them harder to change. For now we can change how they
work pretty painlessly.

Dereference would happen anyway in the wrapper, and it doesn't cause
any harm anyway for readability in my opinion. And of course you don't
have to use acpi device at all, you can use ACPI_HANDLE() macro.

As mentioned acpi_device pointer is not really required to use the wrapper.
Instead we can use ACPI_HANDLE() macro directly. Look at the usage of
the wrapper in the AC driver [1].

-static void acpi_ac_remove(struct acpi_device *device)
+static void acpi_ac_remove(struct platform_device *pdev)
 {
-       struct acpi_ac *ac = acpi_driver_data(device);
+      struct acpi_ac *ac = platform_get_drvdata(pdev);

-       acpi_dev_remove_notify_handler(device->handle, ACPI_ALL_NOTIFY,
+       acpi_dev_remove_notify_handler(ACPI_HANDLE(ac->dev),
+                                                                     ACPI_ALL_NOTIFY,
                                                                       acpi_ac_notify);

In general all drivers that I'm modifying would benefit from not using direct ACPICA
installers/removers by saving that extra synchronization code that would need to be
provided otherwise, and not having to deal with acpi_status codes.

I would need to declare extra acpi_status variable and use ACPI_FAILURE macro
in each usage of the direct ACPICA installer. Also I would need to call
acpi_os_wait_events_complete() after calling each direct remove.

Maybe using an example would better illustrate my point.
Consider using NFIT driver modification later in this series as an example:

1) With old wrapper it would look:

 static void acpi_nfit_notify(acpi_handle handle, u32 event, void *data)
{
    struct acpi_device *adev = data;
    /* Now we need to figure how to get a 'struct device*' from an acpi_device.
         Mind this we can't just do &adev->dev, as we're not using that device anymore.
         We need to get a struct device that's embedded in the platform_device that the
         driver was instantiated with.
         Not sure how it would look like, but it would require are least one extra line here.
     */
    device_lock(dev);
    __acpi_nfit_notify(dev, handle, event);
    device_unlock(dev);
}

2) With new wrapper:

static void acpi_nfit_notify(acpi_handle handle, u32 event, void *data)
{
    struct device *dev = data;

    device_lock(dev);
    __acpi_nfit_notify(dev, handle, event);
    device_unlock(dev);
}


So essentially arbitrarily forcing user to use wrapper that takes acpi device
as an argument may unnecessarily increase drivers complexity, and if we
can help with then we should. That's why this commit exists.

Have you actually looked at this macro?  It is a wrapper around
ACPI_COMPANION().

So they may think that they don't use struct acpi_device pointers, but
in fact they do.

So there is a difference between "limiting to ACPICA" and "reducing".
It cannot be limited to ACPICA, because the code outside ACPICA needs
to evaluate ACPI objects sometimes and ACPI handles are needed for
that.

And this observation doesn't invalidate the point.

I see no particular reason to do that, though.

What specifically is a problem with passing struct acpi_device
pointers to the wrappers?  I don't see any TBH.

So one can use ACPI_COMPANION() just as well and it is slightly less overhead.

You don't really have to repeat the same argument  several times and I
know how ACPI_HANDLE() works.  Also I don't like some of the things
done by this patch.

Whoever uses ACPI_HANDLE(), they also use ACPI_COMPANION() which is
hidden in the former.

If they don't need to store either the acpi_handle or the struct
acpi_device pointer, there is no reason at all to use the former
instead of the latter.

If they get an acpi_handle from somewhere else than ACPI_HANDLE(),
then yes, they would need to get the ACPI devices from there (which is
possible still), but they may be better off by using the raw ACPICA
interface for events in that case.

Yes, that's the common case.

I thought you meant some code duplication related to passing struct
acpi_device pointers to the wrappers, but we agree that the wrappers
are generally useful.

Well, I know what's going on now.

You really want to add a context argument to
acpi_dev_install_notify_handler(), which is quite reasonable, but then
you don't have to change the first argument of it.

I'll send you my version of this patch later today and we'll see.

See below.

It just adds a context argument to acpi_dev_install_notify_handler() without
making the other changes made by the original patch that are rather pointless
IMO.

---
From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
Subject: [PATCH v1 1/9] ACPI: bus: Add context argument to acpi_dev_install_notify_handler()

Add void *context arrgument to the list of arguments of
acpi_dev_install_notify_handler() and modify it to pass that argument
as context to acpi_install_notify_handler() instead of its first
argument which is problematic in general (for example, if platform
drivers used it, they would rather get struct platform_device pointers
or pointers to their private data from the context arguments of their
notify handlers).

Make all of the current callers of acpi_dev_install_notify_handler()
take this change into account so as to avoid altering the general
functionality.
