[PATCH v8 00/10] pmdomain: samsung: add support for Google GS101
Posted by André Draszik 2 weeks ago
Hi,

This series adds support for the power domains on Google GS101.

There are a few differences compared to SoCs already supported by this
driver:
* register access does not work via plain ioremap() / readl() /
  writel().
  Instead, the regmap created by the PMU driver must be used (which
  uses Arm SMCC calls under the hood).
* DTZPC: a call needs to be made before and after power domain off/on,
  to inform the EL3 firmware of the request.
* power domains can and are fed by a regulator rail and therefore
  regulator control needed be implemented.

Bullet points 2 and 3 are new since version 4 of this series, and
related changes are in patches 1, 2, 9, and 10. I can merge patch 9
(SMC call) into the gs101 patch (patch 7) if preferred, but for now I
kept them independent to make it easier to see changes compared to
previous versions of this series, and because patch 9 actually applies
to not only gs101, but to many newer Exynos SoCs, and to make patches 9
and 10 themselves easier to review and reason about.

The DT update to add the new required properties on gs101 will be
posted separately.

Usually I pick up the power-domain related changes for the DT bindings
and host them via an immutable branch called "dt". If needed, SOC
maintainers can pull it to apply/test the corresponding DTS changes.

That said, I am open to whatever you think is best here. Perhaps it's
easier if you can drop the DT patches and provide your acks instead or
if you can share them via an immutable branch for me to pull?

Kind regards
Uffe

I did not pick up any pmdomain binding patches. I picked up only soc and
according to cover letter there are no dependencies between anything here.

As I understand it, they are all related and some even depend on each
other. I think keeping all four DT patches together makes sense.

Although, as I said, if you think it's best to funnel them through
your tree, please do and then share them via an immutable branch, so I
can apply the pmdomain driver changes.

Kind regards

Why? What is the dependency?

soc must go via my tree, but there is no reason to take the pmdomain
binding patch. So I did not take.

But anyway, I just noticed that I dropped everything: this introduces
new warnings which were nowhere addressed or explained. So regardless
how this should go, please do not apply anything - it's broken and
author is silent.

I defer to André to clarify this for us.

Yes, they belong to soc/platform, which is common for most
power-domain providers.

To allow us to merge/maintain power-domain provider *driver* changes
separately, we needed a way to manage the corresponding DT bindings.
That's why I am hosting the immutable "dt" branch for these, which
soc/platform maintainers can pull-in when they need it.

Of course, doing it the other way around is also possible. Just let me
know what you prefer.

Right, I will await your confirmation!

What does belong to soc/platform? pmdomain changes? No, they do not...

Nothing stops that, there is no dependency. For a week I am saying there
are no dependencies. If there are, please provide any sort of
argument/proof, otherwise there is nothing to do here.

Nothing like that is necessary.

I think you may have misunderstood me here. I was referring to the DT
bindings that describe power domain providers.

Generally speaking, these are often provided via some
SOC/platform-specific hardware (like a PMU for example).

Usually we want bindings to go along with their respective drivers on
a subsystem basis.

Both patch2 and patch4 updates DT bindings for the power-domain providers.

Why shouldn't the bindings go along with the driver changes here?

Patch 2 yes. Patch 4 not. That's why I did not take patch 2.

Patch #2 is pmdomain, so with pmdomain drivers thus your tree. Patch #4
is not pmdomain, so not with pmdomain drivers, so not your tree... At
least I do not see any pmdomain parts in that patch #4. It's a Samsung
SoC PMU driver and none of further driver patches touch that PMU driver.

Best regards,
Krzysztof

Yes, you are right that the PMU driver isn't touched.

Although, the PMU DT description added in patch3 and extended in
patch4, allows power-domain providers to be described in its child
nodes. Those child nodes use the same compatible string as the
power-domain providers described in patch2.
