  • Change the ownership of power_supply structure from each driver
    implementing the class to the power supply core.

    The patch changes power_supply_register() function thus all drivers
    implementing power supply class are adjusted.

    Each driver provides the implementation of power supply. However it
    should not be the owner of power supply class instance because it is
    exposed by core to other subsystems with power_supply_get_by_name().
    These other subsystems have no knowledge when the driver will unregister
    the power supply. This leads to several issues when driver is unbound -
    mostly because user of power supply accesses freed memory.

    Instead let the core own the instance of struct 'power_supply'. Other
    users of this power supply will still access valid memory because it
    will be freed when device reference count reaches 0. Currently this
    means "it will leak" but power_supply_put() call in next patches will
    solve it.

    This solves invalid memory references in following race condition
    scenario:

    Thread 1: charger manager
    Thread 2: power supply driver, used by charger manager

    THREAD 1 (charger manager) THREAD 2 (power supply driver)
    ========================== ==============================
    psy = power_supply_get_by_name()
    Driver unbind, .remove
    power_supply_unregister()
    Device fully removed
    psy->get_property()

    The 'get_property' call is executed in invalid context because the driver was
    unbound and struct 'power_supply' memory was freed.

    This could be observed easily with charger manager driver (here compiled
    with max17040 fuel gauge):

  • Add new structure 'power_supply_config' for holding run-time
    initialization data like of_node, supplies and private driver data.

    The power_supply_register() function is changed so all power supply
    drivers need updating.

    When registering the power supply this new 'power_supply_config' should be
    used instead of directly initializing 'struct power_supply'. This allows
    changing the ownership of power_supply structure from driver to the
    power supply core in next patches.

    When a driver does not use of_node or supplies then it should use NULL
    as config. If driver uses of_node or supplies then it should allocate
    config on stack and initialize it with proper values.

  • module_platform_driver can be used to replace the platform_driver
    register and unregister functions, with the calls to module_init
    and module_exit,

    i.e. all the code that is doing like the below

    static int __init mymod_init(void)
    {
    return platform_driver_register(&drv_operations);
    }

    static void __exit mymod_exit(void)
    {
    platform_driver_unregister(&drv_operations);
    }

    module_init(mymod_init);
    module_exit(mymod_exit);

    can be replaced with
    module_platform_driver(drv_operations)...

  • Pull battery updates from Anton Vorontsov:
    "The tag contains just a few battery-related changes for v3.6. It's is
    all pretty straightforward, except one thing.

    One of our patches added thermal support for power supply class, but
    thermal/ subsystem changed under our feet. We (well, Stephen, that
    is) caught the issue and it was decided[1] that I'd just delay the
    battery pull request, and then will fix it up by merging upstream back
    into battery tree at the specific commit.

    That's not all though: another[2] small fixup for thermal subsystem
    was needed to get rid of a warning in power supply subsystem (the
    warning was not drivers/power's "fault", the thermal registration
    function just needed a proper const annotation, which is also done by
    a small commit on top of the merge.

    So, to sum this up:
    - The 'master' branch of the battery tree was in the -next tree for
    weeks, was never rebased, altered etc. It should be all OK;
    - Although, for-v3.6 tag contains the 'master' branch + merge + the
    warning fix.

  • The 'mutex' in struct w1_master is use for two very different
    purposes.

    Firstly it protects various data structures such as the list of all
    slaves.

    Secondly it protects the w1 buss against concurrent accesses.

    This can lead to deadlocks when the ->probe code called while adding a
    slave needs to talk on the bus, as is the case for power_supply
    devices.
    ds2780 and ds2781 drivers contain a work around to track which
    process hold the lock simply to avoid this deadlock. bq27000 doesn't
    have that work around and so deadlocks.

    There are other possible deadlocks involving sysfs.
    When removing a device the sysfs s_active lock is held, so the lock
    that protects the slave list must take precedence over s_active.
    However when access power_supply attributes via sysfs, the s_active
    lock must take precedence over the lock that protects accesses to
    the bus.

    So to avoid deadlocks between w1 slaves and sysfs, these must be
    two separate locks. Making them separate means that the work around
    in ds2780 and ds2781 can be removed.

    So this patch:
    - adds a new mutex: "bus_mutex" which serialises access to the bus.
    - takes in mutex in w1_search and ds1wm_search while they access
    the bus for searching. The mutex is dropped before calling the
    callback which adds the slave.
    - changes all slaves to use bus_mutex instead of mutex to
    protect access to the bus
    - removes w1_ds2790_io_nolock and w1_ds2781_io_nolock, and the
    related code from drivers/power/ds278[01]_battery.c which
    calls them.
