#1468943 — [PATCH V3] leds: trigger: Introduce an USB port trigger

FromRafał Miłecki <zajec5@gmail.com>
Date2016-08-24 00:10 +0200
Subject[PATCH V3] leds: trigger: Introduce an USB port trigger
Message-ID<s9s3o-1C3-23@gated-at.bofh.it>
From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>

This commit adds a new trigger responsible for turning on LED when USB
device gets connected to the specified USB port. This can can useful for
various home routers that have USB port(s) and a proper LED telling user
a device is connected.

The trigger gets its documentation file but basically it just requires
specifying USB port in a Linux format (e.g. echo 1-1 > new_port).

During work on this trigger there was a plan to add DT bindings for it,
but there wasn't an agreement on the format yet. This can be worked on
later, a sysfs interface is needed anyway for platforms not using DT.

Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
---
V2: Trying to add DT support, idea postponed as it will take more time
    to discuss the bindings.
V3: Fix typos in commit and Documentation (thanks Jacek!)
    Use "ports" sysfs file for adding and removing USB ports (thx Jacek)
    Check if there is USB device connected after adding new USB port
    Fix memory leak or two

Felipe: I'd like to ask for your Ack before having this patch pushed.

+USB port LED trigger
+====================
+
+This LED trigger can be used for signalling to the user a presence of USB device
+in a given port. It simply turns on LED when device appears and turns it off
+when it disappears.
+
+It requires specifying a list of USB ports that should be observed. Used format
+matches Linux kernel format and consists of a root hub number and a hub port
+separated by a dash (e.g. 3-1).
+
+It is also possible to handle devices with internal hubs (that are always
+connected to the root hub). User can simply specify internal hub ports then
+(e.g. 1-1.1, 1-1.2, etc.).
+
+Please note that this trigger allows assigning multiple USB ports to a single
+LED. This can be useful in two cases:
+
+1) Device with single USB LED and few physical ports
+
+In such a case LED will be turned on as long as there is at least one connected
+USB device.
+
+2) Device with a physical port handled by few controllers
+
+Some devices have e.g. one controller per PHY standard. E.g. USB 3.0 physical
+port may be handled by ohci-platform, ehci-platform and xhci-hcd. If there is
+only one LED user will most likely want to assign ports from all 3 hubs.
+
+
+This trigger can be activated from user space on led class devices as shown
+below:
+
+  echo usbport > trigger
+
+This adds the following sysfs attributes to the LED:
+
+  ports - Reading it lists all USB ports assigned to the trigger. Writing USB
+	  port number to it will make this driver start observing it. It's also
+	  possible to remove USB port from observable list by writing it with a
+	  "-" prefix.
+
+Example use-case:
+
+  echo usbport > trigger
+  echo 4-1 > ports
+  echo 2-1 > ports
+  echo -4-1 > ports
+  cat ports

sysfs is "one value per file", here you are listing a bunch of things in
one sysfs file.  Please don't do that.

OK. What do you think about creating "ports" subdirectory and creating
file-per-port in it? Then I'd need to bring back something like
"new_port" and "remove_port". Does it sound OK?

Maybe, I don't know.  Why is "USB" somehow unique here?  Why isn't this
the same for PCI slots/ports?  pccard?  sdcard?  thunderbolt?

Good question. I would like to extend this USB port trigger in the
future by reacting to USB activity. This involves playing with URBs
and I believe that at that point it'd be getting too much USB specific
to /rule them all/.

Oh that's never going to work, sorry.  USB "activity" happens deep in
USB host controller hardware, not up at the kernel level at all.  It's
just too fast, and would take up too much CPU to do it otherwise.  Heck,
even old UHCI 1.1 USB controllers did this.

USB "activity" happens all the time, look at a USB bus analyzer if you
want to see what goes on.  Teasing out what is "real data" and what is
just "normal bus activity" is impossible at the kernel level, and really
makes no sense at all (your led would just be "on" all the time.)

Are you sure you know how USB works?  Writing things like this makes me
really worry...

OK, I am going to play stupid again: Does this mean that usbmon is
impossible?

I don't see how this is any different from e.g. the network activity
triggers.

FWIW, on my system "cat /sys/kernel/debug/usb/usbmon/0u" can be silent
for long periods, and show a rush of lines whenever there is USB
activity.  I imagine that a LED triggered by a hook in a similar place
would be useful on systems with LEDs for that sort of stuff.

Hah, nice try :)

I guess when I think "USB activity" I think about the lower layers of
frames and acks and naks on the bus.  But maybe because I have just
recently been doing a lot of work down at the EHCI frame timing layer
for some strange hardware...

But you are right, if all you care about is the data that the host sees,
then yes, you could do something like usbmon to "tickle" a led if you
want to.

Odds are, someone's already done this for a raspberry pi :)

You are adding sysfs files without adding a Documentation/ABI/ entry,
please never do that.

NAK.

This is the way all LED triggers are documented, I just blindly
assumed it's OK. Could you be a bit more helpful and help me to
understand further steps? Should I drop
Documentation/leds/ledtrig-usbport.txt and add proper entry in
Documentation/ABI/testing? Or should I keep both files? What about
current sysfs of other triggers? Should they be moved/documented in
ABI?

In the end, all should be moved into Documentation/ABI/  But for you,
might as well start documenting them in there for any new ones so you
don't have to just move them later.

I'm aware there is one duplicated line of code, I did to first
evaluate very quick test (checking unsigned long value), then iterate
over ports & keep only 1 switch block. I could move
usbport_trig_usb_dev_observed call up, but it would be executed for
other actions as well (currently just USB_BUS_ADD and USB_BUS_REMOVE).

Your condition would be always true (as we don't use negative
numbers). The point is to enable LED only if it was disabled before.
So I need to increase counter unconditionally but enable LED only if
initial value (before increasing it) was 0.

Ok. I'm a USB noop but from my understanding the notifier is only called 
when a device or a hub gets added/removed. So this shouldn't happen that 
much. Therefor it has no impact if we check if the usb device is in the 
observer list for all actions.

Got it. My personal opinion is, that adding one line for 
incrementing/decrementing the counter would help to make this 
crystal-clear to everyone (at least to me :)

Maybe we should switch this and fist see if the usbport is observed 
before evaluating the action. Also cast data to "struct usb_device *" to 
make that clear.

I'm a bit puzzled. I think:
if (++usbport_data->count > 0)
makes this more consistent with the remove case.

#1469607 — [PATCH RFC V3.5] leds: trigger: Introduce an USB port trigger

FromRafał Miłecki <zajec5@gmail.com>

Subject[PATCH RFC V3.5] leds: trigger: Introduce an USB port trigger
Message-ID<s9KCZ-5zX-5@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1468943
From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>

This commit adds a new trigger responsible for turning on LED when USB
device gets connected to the specified USB port. This can can useful for
various home routers that have USB port(s) and a proper LED telling user
a device is connected.

The trigger gets its documentation file but basically it just requires
specifying USB port in a Linux format (e.g. echo 1-1 > new_port).

During work on this trigger there was a plan to add DT bindings for it,
but there wasn't an agreement on the format yet. This can be worked on
later, a sysfs interface is needed anyway for platforms not using DT.

Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>
---
V2: Trying to add DT support, idea postponed as it will take more time
    to discuss the bindings.
V3: Fix typos in commit and Documentation (thanks Jacek!)
    Use "ports" sysfs file for adding and removing USB ports (thx Jacek)
    Check if there is USB device connected after adding new USB port
    Fix memory leak or two
V3.5: Fix e-mail address (thanks Matthias)
      Simplify conditions in usbport_trig_notify (thx Matthias)
      Make "ports" a subdirectory with file per port, to match one value
      per file sysfs rule (thanks Greg)
      As "ports" couldn't be used for adding and removing ports anymore,
      there are now "new_port" and "remove_port". Having them makes this
      API also common with e.g. pci and usb buses.

The last big missing thing is Documentation update (this is why I'm
sending RFC). Greg pointed out we should have some entries in
Documentation/ABI, but it seems none of triggers have it. Any idea why
is that? Do we need to change it? Or is it required for new code only?
If so, should I care about Documentation/leds/ledtrig-usbport.txt at
all in this patch?

For now I didn't update Documentation/leds/ledtrig-usbport.txt with the
new new_port and remove_port API, until I get a clue how to proceed.

+USB port LED trigger
+====================
+
+This LED trigger can be used for signalling to the user a presence of USB device
+in a given port. It simply turns on LED when device appears and turns it off
+when it disappears.
+
+It requires specifying a list of USB ports that should be observed. Used format
+matches Linux kernel format and consists of a root hub number and a hub port
+separated by a dash (e.g. 3-1).
+
+It is also possible to handle devices with internal hubs (that are always
+connected to the root hub). User can simply specify internal hub ports then
+(e.g. 1-1.1, 1-1.2, etc.).
+
+Please note that this trigger allows assigning multiple USB ports to a single
+LED. This can be useful in two cases:
+
+1) Device with single USB LED and few physical ports
+
+In such a case LED will be turned on as long as there is at least one connected
+USB device.
+
+2) Device with a physical port handled by few controllers
+
+Some devices have e.g. one controller per PHY standard. E.g. USB 3.0 physical
+port may be handled by ohci-platform, ehci-platform and xhci-hcd. If there is
+only one LED user will most likely want to assign ports from all 3 hubs.
+
+
+This trigger can be activated from user space on led class devices as shown
+below:
+
+  echo usbport > trigger
+
+This adds the following sysfs attributes to the LED:
+
+  ports - Reading it lists all USB ports assigned to the trigger. Writing USB
+	  port number to it will make this driver start observing it. It's also
+	  possible to remove USB port from observable list by writing it with a
+	  "-" prefix.
+
+Example use-case:
+
+  echo usbport > trigger
+  echo 4-1 > ports
+  echo 2-1 > ports
+  echo -4-1 > ports
+  cat ports

There's a lot missing, but there is at least one exception:
The "inverted" attribute of the  gpio and backlight triggers is
documented as part of Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-led

> Any idea why is that?

Manual enforcement fails from time to time? The requirement was less
strict in the early days of sysfs? Does it matter?

The lack of ABI docs is a bug. Don't add new code with known bugs. Old
code should be fixed, but there is no immediate *need* to fix it.

Don't get me wrong. I care about code quality and documentation. I
mean to follow kernel rules. It's just some things may be not clear to
ppl and it would be nice to get any explanation/help. That said thanks
a lot of your e-mail, I'll try to expand pointed Documentation.

Now writing new_port with "1-1" produces a file named "1-1" in the
ports directory with 000 permissions. I think that what Greg had
on mind by referring to "one value per file" rule was a set of
files representing ports, like "1-1 1-2 2-1", and each file should be
readable/writeable.

For instance "echo 1 > 1-1" would enable the trigger for the port 1-1
and "echo 0 > 1-1" would disable it. The problem is that we don't know
the number of required ports at compilation time and the sysfs
attributes would have to be dynamically created on driver instantiation.
What is more, as the USB ports can dynamically appear/disappear in the
system, the files would have to be created/removed accordingly during
LED class device lifetime, which is not the best design for the sysfs
interface I think.

Therefore, maybe it would be good to follow the "triggers" sysfs
attribute pattern, where it lists the available LED triggers?

The question is whether there is some mechanism available for
notifying addition/removal of a USB port?

Also a description of the device connected to the port would be a nice
feature, however I am not certain about the feasibility thereof.

I think this should be easily doable through the notifier catching 
USB_BUS_[ADD,REMOVE].

Every port is part of some hub and every hub (even root one) is a USB
device. So I could just get struct usb_device and check its "maxchild"
property. If e.g. I get USB device "1-1" with maxchild 4, I know there
are:
1-1.1
1-1.2
1-1.3
1-1.4

So the sysfs structure you suggested would be possible, I just don't
know if it's preferred one or not.

Confirmation: yes, right now I create simple files with chmod 000 for
every port added to the usbport observable list.

What kind of description do you mean? Where should it be used / where
should it appear?
