Enable the processing of HID input records before the RTC will be registered,
in order to allow the RTC register function to read clock. Without doing
that the clock can only be read after the probe function has finished.

Shouldn't now there be a hid_device_io_stop() in hid_time_remove()?

Also, hid_device_io_start() does a weird up() on a
downed-by-someone-else semaphore.  Where was that down() performed in
this case?

Also, your changelog implies that the kernel is already doing this
hid_device_io_start(), only it does it too late.  If that is the case
then will the existing-before-this-patch call to hid_device_io_start()
generate the "io already started" warning?

That isn't how I understood the commit message to commit 
c849a6143bec520aff2a6646518b0d041402428b which introduced that 
functionality in 3.10. But maybe I'm wrong. I haven't looked at the 
underlying code and haven't tested that (very unlikely) error path with 
the new change I made.

Uh, don't know, as already said, I haven't looked at the underlying 
code. But I will now do and will enable all mutex/semaphore debug 
options I find. I have to admit, I didn't have tested the change with 
debug options enabled, so if the kernel doesn't cry on wierd uo()'s 
without debug options enabled, I would have missed that.

No, hid_device_io_start() was introduced especially for such cases. I 
need it because devm_rtc_device_register() might want to read the clock, 
but without hid_device_io_start() that only is possible after probe 
finished (therefor not during devm_rtc_device_register()).

Some time later ...

With several debug options enabled I've got (once) the below backtrace 
with the error path enabled (time_state->rtc = NULL instead of 
time_state->rtc = rtc_device_register()).

[    8.007975] rtc_hid_sensor_time HID-SENSOR-2000a0.0: milliseconds 
supported
[    8.015499] rtc_hid_sensor_time HID-SENSOR-2000a0.0: rtc device 
register failed!
(...)
[   65.551939] =================================
[   65.556343] [ INFO: inconsistent lock state ]

To add some more explanations for the trace (below in full without 
times): The device I use does send the time around once every minute as 
an hid input report and this just might have happened here, causing the 
lock warning. What makes me wonder here is that hid-sensor-hub seems to 
receive the input report even after hid_device_io_stop() was called and 
the probe function for the hid device in question (rtc-hid-sensor-time) 
failed with a rc of -ENODEV.

I've added the HID maintainer and the author of the above mentioned 
commit to cc.

I will need some time (hopefully this weekend) to have a deeper look at 
what goes wrong there. Unfortunatley rtc-hid-sensor-time currently seems 
to be the only user of hid_device_io_stop(), so I might have hit a bug 
or did use it wrong.

But nevertheless, the non-error-path does work as expected, at least I 
haven't seen a problem until now.

Regards,

Alexander Holler
