Sorry, I can NOT get your point, can you be more detail?

As we already make sure that ONLY when there is ONLY 1 user and the requested
period is different from the current period, then this function will be called, so there
is impossible that multiple PWMs are active and the period is requested to be changed.
Am I right?

Fine, then I can save the original requested polarity in each channel, and then return
the last requested polarity here, NOT read from hardware, since the polarity could be
different according to enable status.

OK, will make sure call it without mutex hold.

The reference manual says, if counter is disabled, it will be updated immediately.
If counter is enabled, and for edge aligned PWM mode(EPWM), the register is updated
After written and TPM counter changes from MOD to zero, same as period count update,
HW will make sure the period finish..

If (CMOD[1:0] = 0:0) then CnV register is updated when CnV register is written.
If (CMOD[1:0] â 0:0), then CnV register is updated according to the selected mode, that
is:
â If the selected mode is output compare then CnV register is updated on the next TPM
counter increment (end of the prescaler counting) after CnV register was written.

â If the selected mode is EPWM then CnV register is updated after CnV register was
written and the TPM counter changes from MOD to zero.
â If the selected mode is CPWM then CnV register is updated after CnV register was
written and the TPM counter changes from MOD to (MOD â 1).

NOT quite understand, you meant .apply could be sleep if mutex is hold by
other thread?

BTW, can you have as more of your comments together as possible? That can
save some time of doing new patch, many thanks for your time and patience.
