Re: i2c-davinci.c: CPU FREQ causes lock up due to xfr_complete
Grygorii,
Unfortunately I don't have access to a booting mainline kernel to try
and work on this. Its also currently a bit over my head.
cheers,

i2c: davinci: Change xfr_complete completion to use i2c_lock_adapter
There are several problems with the use of a completion for this task:
1. If no I2C transfer has occurred, a cpufreq transition will block forever.
2. Once an I2C transfer has occurred the cpufreq transition will
never block since the completion is never reinitialized.
3. Even if you do reinitialize the completion for every I2C
transfer, (1) is not solved and there is still a race condition where
the cpufreq transition could start just before an I2C transfer starts
and the I2C transfer occurs during the cpufreq transition.

I fixed this by moving the cpufreq_notifiy. This doesn't apply to the
later kernels as the davinci cpufreq driver has changed quite a bit.
Unfortunately I don't have the setup to test a patch against a newer
kernel right now.

ARM: DAVINCI: Reorder cpufreq_nofity_transistion so that
set_voltage happens first.
set_voltage may make use of the i2c bus to communicate with the
PMIC. In this case we dont want the i2c to reset until after we set
the voltage.

According to the stack trace the kernel gets stuck in the
"i2c_davinci_cpufreq_transition" function when it calls
"wait_for_completion(&dev->xfr_complete);" The two other places this
xfr_complete variable is referenced is the init_completion in the probe and
the complete at the end of the i2c_davinci_xfer function. My understanding
as to what this was intended for was to ensure that a transfer in progress
completed before changing the clock frequency. But as its currently done
the only thing it does is make sure there has been a completed i2c transfer
on this device ever. Is my understanding correct?
Currently the workaround is to simply disable the wait_for_completion as
seen below. How would you fix this to ensure a transfer in progress
completes before changing clocks without hanging if no transfer was ever
attempted?
