[PATCH 0/2] Designware I2C slave confusing IC_INTR_STOP_DET handle
From: Michael Wu

When an I2C slave works, sometimes both IC_INTR_RX_FULL and
IC_INTR_STOP_DET may be rising during an IRQ handle, especially when
system is busy or too late to handle interrupts.
If IC_INTR_RX_FULL is rising and the system doesn't handle immediately,
IC_INTR_STOP_DET may be rising and the system has to handle these two
events. For this there may be two problems:
1. IC_INTR_STOP_DET is rising after i2c_dw_read_clear_intrbits_slave()
done: It seems invalidated because I2C_SLAVE_WRITE_REQUESTED is
reported after the 1st I2C_SLAVE_WRITE_RECEIVED.

t1: ISR with the 1st IC_INTR_RX_FULL.
t2: Clear listed IC_INTR bits by i2c_dw_read_clear_intrbits_slave().
t3: Enter i2c_dw_irq_handler_slave() and then report
I2C_SLAVE_WRITE_RECEIVED due to 'if (stat & DW_IC_INTR_RX_FULL)'
matched.
t4: ISR with the 2nd IC_INTR_RX_FULL.
t5: Clear listed IC_INTR bits by i2c_dw_read_clear_intrbits_slave() while
IC_INTR_STOP_DET has not risen yet.
t6: IC_INTR_STOP_DET is rising after entering i2c_dw_irq_handler_slave().
The driver reports I2C_SLAVE_WRITE_REQUESTED first due to
'if ((stat & DW_IC_INTR_RX_FULL) && (stat & DW_IC_INTR_STOP_DET))'
matched and then reports I2C_SLAVE_WRITE_RECEIVED.
t7: Reports I2C_SLAVE_STOP due to IC_INTR_STOP_DET not be cleared yet.
2. Both IC_INTR_STOP_DET and IC_INTR_RX_FULL are rising before
i2c_dw_read_clear_intrbits_slave(): I2C_SLAVE_STOP never be reported
because IC_INTR_STOP_DET was cleared by
i2c_dw_read_clear_intrbits_slave().
$ i2cset -f -y 2 0x42 0x00 0x41; dmesg -c
[0][clear_intrbits]0x1 STATUS SLAVE_ACTIVITY=0x1 : RAW_INTR_STAT=0x514 : INTR_STAT=0x4

[1][irq_handler ]0x1 STATUS SLAVE_ACTIVITY=0x0 : RAW_INTR_STAT=0x514 : INTR_STAT=0x4
I2C_SLAVE_WRITE_RECEIVED
t1: ISR with the 1st IC_INTR_RX_FULL.
t2: Clear listed IC_INTR bits by i2c_dw_read_clear_intrbits_slave().
t3: Enter i2c_dw_irq_handler_slave() and then report
I2C_SLAVE_WRITE_RECEIVED due to 'if (stat & DW_IC_INTR_RX_FULL)'
matched.
t4: ISR with both IC_INTR_STOP_DET and the 2nd IC_INTR_RX_FULL.
t5: Clear listed IC_INTR bits by i2c_dw_read_clear_intrbits_slave().
The current IC_INTR_STOP_DET was cleared by this
i2c_dw_read_clear_intrbits_slave().
t6: Enter i2c_dw_irq_handler_slave() and then report
i2c_slave_event(WRITE_RECEIVED) due to
'if (stat & DW_IC_INTR_RX_FULL)' matched.
t7: I2C_SLAVE_STOP never be reported because IC_INTR_STOP_DET was
cleared in t5.
In order to resolve these problems, i2c_dw_read_clear_intrbits_slave()
should be called only once in an ISR and take the returned stat to handle
those occurred events. The ISR handling has to be adjusted to conform event
reporting described in Documentation/i2c/slave-interface.rst.

i2c: designware: call i2c_dw_read_clear_intrbits_slave() once
i2c: designware: slave should do WRITE_REQUESTED before WRITE_RECEIVED
