Subject: [PATCH 0/5] staging: vc04_services: Address module cleanup
Date: Fri, 15 Mar 2024 16:26:54 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240315105659.111544-1-umang.jain@ideasonboard.com> (raw)

The series addresses the following TODO item:

```
* Fix kernel module support

Even the VPU firmware doesn't support a VCHI re-connect, the driver
should properly handle a module unload. This also includes that all
resources must be freed (kthreads, debugfs entries, ...) and global
variables avoided.
```

Patch 1/5 to 3/5 are log cleanups spotted during the reading of the
driver.

Patch 4/5 implements .remove() function vptr so that individual
devices(bcm2835-audio, bcm2835-camera, bcm2835-isp etc.)
can run their cleanup when removed from the vchiq_bus, during their
own module unload.

Patch 5/5 stops the kthreads started by vchiq - on shutdown path.

Rest of the module cleanup (debugfs entries, deregister char device
etc.) is already done as part of vchiq_remove().

Testing on RPi4 for vchiq module unload:

```
uajain@ATX:~$ uname -r
6.8.0-rc1-00128-gab2b09f632fa-dirty
uajain@ATX:~$ dmesg | grep vchiq
[   21.401426] vchiq: module is from the staging directory, the quality is unknown, you have been warned.
