ARM: exynos: Move to generic PM domain DT bindings

2014-09-22T13:57:40Z

This patch moves Exynos PM domain code to use the new generic PM domain look-up framework introduced in previous patches, thus also allowing the new code to be compiled with CONFIG_ARCH_EXYNOS. This patch was originally submitted by Tomasz Figa when he was employed by Samsung.

PM / Domains: Add generic OF-based PM domain look-up

2014-09-22T13:57:40Z

This patch introduces generic code to perform PM domain look-up using device tree and automatically bind devices to their PM domains. Generic device tree bindings are introduced to specify PM domains of devices in their device tree nodes. Backwards compatibility with legacy Samsung-specific PM domain bindings is provided, but for now the new code is not compiled when CONFIG_ARCH_EXYNOS is selected to avoid collision with legacy code. This will change as soon as the Exynos PM domain code gets converted to use the generic framework in further patch. This patch was originally submitted by Tomasz Figa when he was employed by Samsung.

PM / OPP: Remove ARCH_HAS_OPP

2014-07-22T22:51:30Z

Since the OPP layer is a kernel library which has been converted to be directly selectable by its callers rather than user selectable and requiring architectures to enable it explicitly the ARCH_HAS_OPP symbol has become redundant and can be removed. Do so. Signed-off-by: Mark Brown Reviewed-by: Viresh Kumar Acked-by: Nishanth Menon Acked-by: Rob Herring Acked-by: Shawn Guo Acked-by: Simon Horman Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

PM / OPP: Make OPP invisible to users in Kconfig

2014-05-19T21:03:31Z

The OPP code is an in kernel library selected by its users, there is no no architecture code required to implement it and enabling it without a user just increases the kernel size. Since the users select rather than depend on it just remove the ability to directly set the option from Kconfig.

PM / Sleep: Detect device suspend/resume lockup and log event

2013-10-18T11:33:08Z

Rather than hard-lock the kernel, dump the suspend/resume thread stack and panic() to capture a message in pstore when a driver takes too long to suspend/resume. Default suspend/resume watchdog timeout is set to 12 seconds to be longer than the usbhid 10 second timeout, but could be changed at compile time. Exclude from the watchdog the time spent waiting for children that are resumed asynchronously and time every device, whether or not they resumed synchronously. This patch is targeted for mobile devices where a suspend/resume lockup could cause a system reboot. Information about failing device can be retrieved in subsequent boot session by mounting pstore and inspecting the log. Laptops with EFI-enabled pstore could also benefit from this feature. The hardware watchdog timer is likely suspended during this time and couldn't be relied upon. The soft-lockup detector would eventually tell that tasks are not scheduled, but would provide little context as to why. The patch hence uses system timer and assumes it is still active while the devices are suspended/resumed. This feature can be enabled/disabled during kernel configuration. This change is based on earlier work by San Mehat. Signed-off-by: Benoit Goby Signed-off-by: Zoran Markovic Acked-by: Ulf Hansson Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

Merge branch 'for-3.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq

2013-07-03T02:53:30Z

Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo: "Surprisingly, Lai and I didn't break too many things implementing custom pools and stuff last time around and there aren't any follow-up changes necessary at this point. The only change in this pull request is Viresh's patches to make some per-cpu workqueues to behave as unbound workqueues dependent on a boot param whose default can be configured via a config option. This leads to higher processing overhead / lower bandwidth as more work items are bounced across CPUs; however, it can lead to noticeable powersave in certain configurations - ~10% w/ idlish constant workload on a big.LITTLE configuration according to Viresh. This is because per-cpu workqueues interfere with how the scheduler perceives whether or not each CPU is idle by forcing pinned tasks on them, which makes the scheduler's power-aware scheduling decisions less effective. Its effectiveness is likely less pronounced on homogenous configurations and this type of optimization can probably be made automatic; however, the changes are pretty minimal and the affected workqueues are clearly marked, so it's an easy gain for some configurations for the time being with pretty unintrusive changes." * 'for-3.11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: fbcon: queue work on power efficient wq block: queue work on power efficient wq PHYLIB: queue work on system_power_efficient_wq workqueue: Add system wide power_efficient workqueues workqueues: Introduce new flag WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT for power oriented workqueues

Finally eradicate CONFIG_HOTPLUG

2013-06-03T21:20:18Z

Ever since commit 45f035ab9b8f ("CONFIG_HOTPLUG should be always on"), it has been basically impossible to build a kernel with CONFIG_HOTPLUG turned off. Remove all the remaining references to it.

workqueues: Introduce new flag WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT for power oriented workqueues

2013-05-14T17:50:06Z

Workqueues can be performance or power-oriented. Currently, most workqueues are bound to the CPU they were created on. This gives good performance (due to cache effects) at the cost of potentially waking up otherwise idle cores (Idle from scheduler's perspective. Which may or may not be physically idle) just to process some work. To save power, we can allow the work to be rescheduled on a core that is already awake. Workqueues created with the WQ_UNBOUND flag will allow some power savings. However, we don't change the default behaviour of the system. To enable power-saving behaviour, a new config option CONFIG_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT needs to be turned on. This option can also be overridden by the workqueue.power_efficient boot parameter. tj: Updated config description and comments. Renamed CONFIG_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT to CONFIG_WQ_POWER_EFFICIENT_DEFAULT. Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar Reviewed-by: Amit Kucheria Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

PM / Domains: Add power off/on function for system core suspend stage

2012-09-03T23:36:01Z

Introduce function pm_genpd_syscore_switch() and two wrappers around it, pm_genpd_syscore_poweroff() and pm_genpd_syscore_poweron(), allowing the callers to let the generic PM domains framework know that the given device is not necessary any more and its PM domain can be turned off (the former) or that the given device will be required immediately, so its PM domain has to be turned on (the latter) during the system core (syscore) stage of system suspend (or hibernation) and resume. These functions will be used for handling devices registered as clock sources and clock event devices that belong to PM domains. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

PM / Sleep: Separate printing suspend times from initcall_debug

2012-07-01T11:31:23Z

Change the behavior of the newly introduced /sys/power/pm_print_times attribute so that its initial value depends on initcall_debug, but setting it to 0 will cause device suspend/resume times not to be printed, even if initcall_debug has been set. This way, the people who use initcall_debug for reasons other than PM debugging will be able to switch the suspend/resume times printing off, if need be. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
