| Subject | [PATCH RFC] spi-nor: provide a range for poll_timout |
| Message-ID | <ta5vA-cb-35@gated-at.bofh.it> |
The overall poll time here is INTEL_SPI_TIMEOUT * 1000 which is 5000 * 1000 - so 5seconds and it is coded as a tight loop here delay_us to readl_poll_timeout() is set to 0. As this is never called in an atomic context sleeping should be no issue and there is no reasons for the tight-loop here. Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <der.herr@hofr.at> --- Problem located by experimental coccinelle script: ./drivers/mtd/spi-nor/intel-spi.c:265:8-26: WARNING: usleep_range min=0 for delay INTEL_SPI_TIMEOUT * 1000 ./drivers/mtd/spi-nor/intel-spi.c:274:8-26: WARNING: usleep_range min=0 for delay INTEL_SPI_TIMEOUT * 1000 The rational for setting the delay_us here to 40 is that readx_poll_timeout() will take delay_us >> 2 + 1 as min value and that should be at least 10us (see Documentation/timers/timers-howto.txt). Ideally the delay would be made even larger to keep the load on the hrtimer subsystem low as these delays here do not seem to be critical. Someone that knows the details of this device would need to check if a larger delay would be ok here.

Hm, let's wait for Mika's feedback on this one. BTW, can you please Cc
him on you other spi-nor/intel patches and prefix your patches with the
driver name ('mtd: spi-nor: intel: ') so that we know where the changes
are made (without this prefix it looks like you're touching core files)?
Thanks,
Boris

will do - just saw that his email shows up in git plame which I normally also include along with what scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f shows - sorry for the ommision.
