As part of that merge prepping Arm DT support 13 years ago, they

bca1a10046 mailbox: forward the hrtimer if not queued and under a lock
This reverts commit c7dacf5b0f,
"mailbox: avoid timer start from callback"

The previous commit was reverted since it lead to a race that
caused the hrtimer to not be started at all. The check for
hrtimer_active() in msg_submit() will return true if the
callback function txdone_hrtimer() is currently running. This
function could return HRTIMER_NORESTART and then the timer
will not be restarted, and also msg_submit() will not start
the timer. This will lead to a message actually being submitted
but no timer will start to check for its compleation.

The original fix that added checking hrtimer_active() was added to
avoid a warning with hrtimer_forward. Looking in the kernel
another solution to avoid this warning is to check hrtimer_is_queued()
before calling hrtimer_forward_now() instead. This however requires a
lock so the timer is not started by msg_submit() inbetween this check
and the hrtimer_forward() call.

c7dacf5b0f mailbox: avoid timer start from callback
If the txdone is done by polling, it is possible for msg_submit() to start
the timer while txdone_hrtimer() callback is running. If the timer needs
recheduling, it could already be enqueued by the time hrtimer_forward_now()
is called, leading hrtimer to loudly complain.

This can be fixed by not starting the timer from the callback path. Which
requires the timer reloading as long as any message is queued on the
channel, and not just when current tx is not done yet.

33cd7123ac mailbox: reset txdone_method TXDONE_BY_POLL if client knows_txdone
Currently the mailbox framework sets txdone_method to TXDONE_BY_POLL if

However, we endup setting both TXDONE_BY_POLL and TXDONE_BY_ACK in that
case. In such scenario, we may end up with below warnings as the tx

cc6eeaa302 mailbox: skip complete wait event if timer expired
If a wait_for_completion_timeout() call returns due to a timeout,
complete() can get called after returning from the wait which is
incorrect and can cause subsequent transmissions on a channel to fail.
Since the wait_for_completion_timeout() sees the completion variable
is non-zero caused by the erroneous/spurious complete() call, and
it immediately returns without waiting for the time as expected by the
client.

This patch fixes the issue by skipping complete() call for the timer
expiry.

0cc67945ea mailbox: switch to hrtimer for tx_complete polling
The mailbox core uses jiffy based timer to handle polling for the
transmit completion. If the client/protocol have/support notification
of the last packet transmit completion via ACK packet, then we tick the
Tx state machine immediately in the callback. However if the client
doesn't support that mechanism we might end-up waiting for atleast a
jiffy even though the remote is ready to receive the next request.

This patch switches the timer used for that polling from jiffy-based
to hrtimer-based so that we can support polling at much higher time
resolution.

2d805fc1c6 mailbox: Fix up error handling in mbox_request_channel()
mbox_request_channel() currently returns EBUSY in the event the controller
is not present or if of_xlate() fails, but in neither case is EBUSY really
appropriate.  Return EPROBE_DEFER if the controller is not yet present
and change of_xlate() to return an ERR_PTR instead of NULL so that the
error can be propagated back to the caller of mbox_request_channel().

01340df8d3 mailbox: check for bit set before polling
Before polling we just need to see if the TXDONE_BY_POLL bit
is set in txdone_method. There may be another bit (method)
specified as well, like TXDONE_BY_ACK.

86c22f8c9a Mailbox: Add support for Platform Communication Channel
ACPI 5.0+ spec defines a generic mode of communication
between the OS and a platform such as the BMC. This medium
(PCC) is typically used by CPPC (ACPI CPU Performance management),
RAS (ACPI reliability protocol) and MPST (ACPI Memory power
states).

This patch adds PCC support as a Mailbox Controller. As of
ACPI v5.1 there is no provision for clients to lookup mailbox
controllers in a way that Linux expects. e.g. in DT the clients
can list the mailboxes they can associate with in the DT binding
and then provide a unique index to lookup a channel within a mailbox.
Since the ACPI spec doesn't have anything similar, we introduce a
mailbox controller specific API so that when the client calls it,
we know to lookup in the context of a specific controller. This
also helps in keeping a consistent interface across DT and ACPI
for such drivers.

This patch implements basic PCC support using the ACPI v5.1
structures. IRQ mode support will be provided as follow up patches.

97b0c7bd2e mailbox: add tx_prepare client callback
If the mailbox controller expects the payload is in place before
initiating the transmit, then it's impossible to reuse the list
maintained by core mailbox code currently. Maintaining another list
for sending the message in the controller seems totally unnecessary
as core mailbox library already provides that feature.

This patch introduces tx_prepare callback in mbox_client which
can be used by the core mailbox library before initiating the
transaction through mbox->ops->send_data. The client driver can
implement this callback to ensure the payload is copied to the
shared memory.

52a49306d7 mailbox: Don't unnecessarily re-arm the polling timer
poll_txdone() will unconditionally re-arm the polling timer if there was
an active request, even if the active request completed and no other
requests were submitted.  This is fixed by:
 - only re-arming the timer if the controller reported that the current
   transmission has not completed, and,
 - moving the call to poll_txdone() into msg_submit() so that the
   controller gets polled (and the timer re-armed, if necessary) whenever
   a new message is submitted.

2b6d83e2b8 mailbox: Introduce framework for mailbox
Introduce common framework for client/protocol drivers and
controller drivers of Inter-Processor-Communication (IPC).

Client driver developers should have a look at
 include/linux/mailbox_client.h to understand the part of
the API exposed to client drivers.
Similarly controller driver developers should have a look
at include/linux/mailbox_controller.h
