[PATCH 0/9] usb: musb: several bugfixes for the musb driver

2014-07-18 Thread Lothar Waßmann
The first three patches do some source code cleanup in the files that
are modified in the subsequent patches.

Patch 4 carries the proper fix reported in commit:
7adb5c876e9c ("usb: musb: Fix panic upon musb_am335x module removal")

Patch 6 makes the USBOTG_ID pin override via the USB_MODE register
really work.

Patch 5 makes the error message upon driver probe failure visible
without having to recompile the driver with DEBUG enabled.

Patch 7 makes sure the parameters for the usb_gen_phy are properly set
up before registering it.

Patch 8 makes it possible to use the driver with HW that requires
external regulators or clocks.

Patch 9 reinstates module unloading support for the musb_am335x driver
which was disabled due to a false failure analysis

I've applied patches 4 and 9 on a recent -next, after fixing a conflict
due to patch 3 ("usb: musb_am335x: source cleanup"):

For these two patches, Tested-by: Ezequiel Garcia 


Tested on a beaglebone with a mass storage USB device, module load/unload
works without issues. The module_get/put in the phy is now preventing the
musb_am335x driver unload, which seems to be the real cause of the issue
I reported. Thanks for providing a proper fix!

I don't that's a good fix. The problem is that even after am335x
removing all its child, someone else tried to release the PHY. That
ordering is the one that needs to be fixed. Doing a module_get on the
parent device looks like a hack to me.

No. It guarantees that the module cannot be unloaded when its resources
are still in use!

it's still a hack. You have a child incrementing the usage count on its
parent just because a sibbling isn't doing the right thing.

How about having the musb_am335x (glue driver) call request_module and
module_get on the phy-am335x? Wouldn't this be a cleaner approach?

I haven't checked if this possible, though.

at most, you would have the phy layer do that so that all PHYs get usage
counter incremented when they're in use. We can't have this 'fixed' for
MUSB only.
