Yes, sorry for the silence :(

With my lack of expertise with this driver and graphics in general I
wasn't sure if I'd take up the "done on top" solution and shifted my
attention to other clang related issues.

Indeed!

After briefly chatting with Stephane and mka, it seems the difference
between short-term fix and "done on top" were not clear.

I'm sorry - I'm not on the other channels and I didn't see any mass
panic. I agree that's not a collaborative. The previous answer in this
thread didn't seem particularly collaborative either though.

The silence was partly due to mka working on other "clang enablement" patches:

mka said "he would take a look at it". But knowing how he understates
things in a typical "German Engineer" way, I'm optimistic it will be
more than that. Thanks!

We've replied and discussed on May 5th what that roughly should be,
right when Matthias pinged us. The original submission unfortunately
fell through the cracks (it happens, not much we can do with this
flood). Matthias didn't seem to have any questions about the proposed
solutions (we laid out both the minimal short-term fix to unconfuse
things, and what might be done on top), I think a reasonable
assumption was that it's all clear. Otherwise he should have asked.

Now, over 2 months later (and complete silence from your side) there's
suddenly mass panic and multiple escalations on all available
channels, which feels like a rather decent overreaction and not a
terrible constructive way to collaborate on the upstream codebase.

Anyway, I've done the quick draft for the function declaration changes
that would clear up the confusion, just needs a clang run to update
all the parameters to match, and passed that on to Stéphane Marchesin.

I expect you to follow up with the corresponding patch right away.

Thanks a lot.

That's fair.

This feels like "can't see the forest because of the trees".

The original patch was submitted in order to compile cleanly using
clang and the above suggests using clang is not important.  Using
clang is important to Matthias and the Chrome OS organization for many
good reasons - including better warnings.

The original patch message was clear that clang was generating the
warning. This isn't the only patch mka has sent to kernel devs. What
one can infer is Chrome OS is trying to move to clang (like other
Google products _already_ have.)  My impression is all these products
are a priority to Intel - but it would be good to know otherwise.

> Definitely something we'd

The long run is now. Everyone agrees the code should change and you
don't have to do it. Matthias submitted an unacceptable patch and
giving him some concrete guidance on what would be acceptable would
enable him to implement/test it (or anyone else could for that
matter).  Can you do that?

Just give an example of what the "right" API looks like and see where it goes.

As I replied previously [1], with more background, fixing the warnings
properly, in a way that actually improves the code instead of making it
worse, would mean a bunch of churn that's not just purely mechanical
conversion.

Unless you can point out a bug which is actually caused by mixing the
types (which is mostly intentional, see the background) I have a hard
time telling people this should be a priority. Definitely something we'd
like to do in the long run and pedantically correct (and I tend to

So, if you think this is wrong, can you fix this warning in a way that

Because maybe the function should be taking in type B instead.

The function expects type A, you pass type B, how can that ever be the
right thing to do?

Yeah the current patch just makes it worse. Either enum pch_transcoder, or
the enum pipe changes I suggested somewhere else. Blindly fixing type
mismatches without actually fixing the underlying confusion isn't really
useful work. And at least the switch to enum pipe for pch won't be (much)
bigger.

There's a warning? I don't get any.

Anyways, I just don't see much point in blindly changing the types
because it doesn't actually solve the underlying confusion for human
readers. It might even make it worse, not sure.

I don't follow -- these functions take an enum transcoder; what's
wrong about passing what they expect? It seems like what you are

transcoder.

The enum pipe conversion might be the right thing to do *if* you must do
something. But I'm not convinced you must. It's a bunch of churn that's
not just purely mechanical conversion.

commit a5c961d1f3a9ab5ba0e5706e866192f8108143fe
Author: Paulo Zanoni

drm/i915: add TRANSCODER_EDP

Before Haswell we used to have the CPU pipes and the PCH transcoders.
We had the same amount of pipes and transcoders, and there was a 1:1
mapping between them. After Haswell what we used to call CPU pipe was
split into CPU pipe and CPU transcoder. So now we have 3 CPU pipes (A,
B and C), 4 CPU transcoders (A, B, C and EDP) and 1 PCH transcoder
(only used for VGA).

For all the outputs except for EDP we have an 1:1 mapping on the CPU
pipes and CPU transcoders, so if you're using CPU pipe A you have to
use CPU transcoder A. When have an eDP output you have to use
transcoder EDP and you can attach this CPU transcoder to any of the 3
CPU pipes. When using VGA you need to select a pair of matching CPU
pipes/transcoders (A/A, B/B, C/C) and you also need to enable/use the
PCH transcoder.

For now we're just creating the cpu_transcoder definitions and setting
cpu_transcoder to TRANSCODER_EDP on DDI eDP code, but none of the
registers was ported to use transcoder instead of pipe. The goal is to
keep the code backwards-compatible since on all cases except when
using eDP we must have pipe == cpu_transcoder.

V2: Comment the haswell_crtc_off chunk, suggested by Damien Lespiau
and Daniel Vetter.

We currently need the haswell_crtc_off chunk because TRANSCODER_EDP
can be used by any CRTC, so when you stop using it you have to stop
saying you're using it, otherwise you may have at some point 2 CRTCs
claiming they're using TRANSCODER_EDP (a disabled CRTC and an enabled
one), then the HW state readout code will get completely confused.

In other words:

Imagine the following case:
  xrandr --output eDP1 --auto --crtc 0
  xrandr --output eDP1 --off
  xrandr --output eDP1 --auto --crtc 2

After the last command you could get a "pipe A assertion failure
(expected off, current on)" because CRTC 0 still claims it's using
TRANSCODER_EDP, so the HW state readout function will read it
(through PIPECONF) and expect it to be off, when it's actually on
because it's being used by CRTC 2.

So when we make "intel_crtc->cpu_transcoder = intel_crtc->pipe" we
make sure we're pointing to our own original CRTC which is certainly
not used by any other CRTC.

enum transcoder is wrong for the pch, that enum is only for cpu
transcoders introduced in hsw+. PCH should always use enum pipe.

So a patch to switch the enum to enum pipe for all the pch functions
sounds like the right thing to do here. Plus maybe rename enum transcoder
to enum cpu_transcoder, but that'd be tons of work. A comment instead
might be easier ...

I also think that proper use of enums is an additional line of defense
against "stupid mistakes". While weeding out these warnings in
different drivers I came across a few cases were the code was working
out of sheer luck because the (unintentionally) mismatched enums
resolved to the same value.

IMHO, one of the best things that happened to C standard was addition
of strong type checking. It's helped prevent developers from making
one class of "stupid mistakes". So while this change wouldn't improve
performance, it would allow a form of automated correctness checking
that can be enforced with every patch you get (every time the code
base is compiled).

In other words, the gain isn't currently measurable the same way
performance is but I believe it's worth doing.  Given the number of
typedefs and enums in kernel code, I suspect most kernel developers
would agree.

The point of the enum would be to make it more clear which piece of
hardware we're talking to in each case. But this would require going
through the entire PCH code and changing things to use the right type
in each case. Quite a bit of work with little measurable gain I'd say.

That would have to be called pipe_to_pch_transcoder() or something like
that.

Is an enum better than coding an explicit conversion in an inline function?
Then the code can do some sanity checking as well. Something like:

enum transcoder pch_to_cpu_enum(enum pipe)
{
WARN_ON(pipe > FOO);
return (enum transcoder) pipe;
}

I'm not convinced the patch is making things any better really. To
fix this really properly, I think we'd need to introduce a new enum 
pch_transcoder and thus avoid the confusion of which type of
transcoder we're talking about. Currently most places expect an 
enum pipe when dealing with PCH transcoders, and enum transcoder
when dealing with CPU transcoders. But there are some exceptions
of course.
