Hello Laxman,

Sorry for not doing this before but today was a busy one.


Thanks for testing.

Hi Krzysztof, Javier,


3. Extension of 2
Do regmap_add_irq_chip(), call regmap_irq_get_virq() for creating irq mapping but dont do any interrupt registration i.e. comment request_threaded_irq() and hence free_irq().
Then do unbind/bind and then suspend.
To make sure that this happen when only we have client registered interrupt or with mapping also.


This fails, so the problem seems to be with the mapping.

So I tried another scenario:

4. Call regmap_del_irq_chip() just after regmap_irq_get_virq() and try to S2R
without doing any unbind before.

To test if this is a general issue with regmap_del_irq_chip() after doing
the IRQ mapping and not something specific to the remove callback.

The machine failed to boot. So now at least we have narrowed down the issue.

I've looked at both regmap_irq_get_virq() and regmap_del_irq_chip() but I
couldn't find any obvious cause for the issue we are seeing. But it's late
Friday so probably I should just stop here and take a fresh look on Monday.


So the issue is that when we create mapping, we can not delete the irq_chip.

I saw one function from irq framework irq_dispose_mapping(unsigned int virq).

So we need to dispose the mapping before deleting irq chip.


Becasue it is reproduced in normal boot also if we do create mapping and delete the irq chip data, I will also be able to validate if I get some time on weekend.


Thanks, that was it! I was searching yesterday for the regmap_irq_get_virq()
counterpart and did not find it, but I was looking at include/linux/regmap.h
and didn't think about looking at include/linux/irqdomain.h.

Maybe we should add a regmap_irq_put_virq() that's just a wrapper around
irq_dispose_mapping() to make the API consistent and avoid this confusion?
I see that most drivers don't dispose the mapping on their error/remove path.

Anyways, with this patch on top of yours 5/5 my system is able to suspend
after an unbind again:

regmap_del_irq_chip(info->rtc_irq, info->rtc_irq_data);
if (info->rtc)
i2c_unregister_device(info->rtc);

This is a bug in the current MFD driver though so I would include it as
a separate patch prior to your patch that moves the regmap and i2c init
to the RTC driver.

When posting your new revsion feel free to add my {Reviewed,Tested}-by
tags for $SUBJECT and the new bugfix patch.
