So has this series been picked up anywhere?  I don't see it in your
samsung-clk tree, nor in Kukjin's for-next.

Also, I'm curious whether or how this is has been tested on big.LITTLE
SoCs.  

I'm trying it on the 5800/Chromebook2 and it's not terribly stable.  I'm
testing along with CPUidle, so there may be some untested interactions
there as it seems a bit more stable without CPUidle enabled.

I'd love to hear from anyone else that's testing CPUidle and CPUfreq
together big.LITTLE 5420/5800, with or without the switcher.

Also, the patch below[2] is needed for 5800.

FWIW, I have a temporary branch[1] based on the v3.17-rc branch of the
exynos-reference tree where I've added the DT patch needed for CPUidle,
this series (and it's dependencies) which is what I'm using for testing.

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: Exynos: use generic cpufreq driver for Exynos5800

As a derivative of the 5420, the 5800 SoC should use the generic
big.LITTLE driver for Exynos5800 as well.

No, it has not. In general it was already too late in the release cycle
when the last version was posted.

I had a plan to take it through clock tree with Kukjin's and Viresh's
cooperation, but now as you say it...

I'd definitely like to see a clarification on this issues, before this
series hits mainline or at least its parts related to affected SoCs.
Also I'd like to hear some confirmation from Samsung Poland R&D Center
guys (on CC), whether this code works stable on their target boards
(Universal C210, Trats, Trats2).

The patch looks fine to me (well, it's trivial :)), thanks.

It is a huge step forward - to be honest it is a serious rework of
cpufreq subsystem for Exynos SoCs.

Since we have missed the merge window with this code, I can declare
that I will provide code, which means that I will do the cleanup for
excluded from this series Exynos4 SoCs, to test the cpufreq-cpu0.

However, I'm concerned with Exynos4412, which supports BOOST. It might
not be trivial to provide support for it.

I think, that we shall not drop behind any functionality during clean
up.

For reference, I had the same patch in a kernel tree we recently used
for a demo on the chromebook 2 13" (Exynos 5800). We didn't see any
stability issues due to this without CPUidle (using the ondemand
govenor). The kernel we ended up using had CONFIG_BL_SWITCHER disabled,
but i don't remember seeing stability issues when i did a testrun with
that enabled.

I have tested this patch series on SMDK5420 with cpuidle (with and
without b.L switcher enabled).

As of now voltage scaling support is not there in generic big-little
cpufreq driver (arm_big_little.c).
Hence need to tie arm and kfc voltages to highest level for testing.

Without this change stability issues are there, but with this change
everything is stable.

Can you clarify how you're setting the voltages to ensure stability?

Tomasz, I didn't mean to suggest this isn't ready for mainline.  For the
5420/5800 it seems cpufreq support is a new feature, so this isn't a
regression against previous (mainline) behavior.  Maybe the big.LITTLE
cpufreq support should've been separated out from the cleanup since it's
more of a new feature, but that's up to you.

I haven't said that either. I'd just like to know in what state this
series is in case of those SoCs. However, if there are stability issues
on them, there is also a chance that the same is true for other boards.

Anyway, we're early in releasy cycle, so probably we could get better
test coverage with this series in linux-next.

Kukjin, Viresh, how would you want to proceed with merging it? It
touches mach-exynos, cpufreq and samsung-clk, so it is non-trivial to
merge. However as far as I can see the cpufreq-related changes are just
a number of full file deletes and minor Makefile/Kconfig updates. It
will be more difficult with mach-exynos changes, as they are more likely
to produce conflict.

The only solution that comes to my mind is that I first apply patches 1
and 2, create a stable branch for Kukjin, then he applies patches 3, 4,
and 5 and creates a stable branch for me, on top of which I apply patch 6.

Best regards,
Tomasz

Thanks.

I've applied your patch, and bootup shows vdd_arm and vdd_kfc at
1500mV, but still when booting with cpuidle enabled (bL switcher
disabled), I'm seeing lockups with no kernel output.  With CPUidle
disabled, things are pretty stable.

What tree are you using to test this out on 5420?  I'm using mainline
v3.17-rc1 + DT patch for CPUidle and this cpufreq series.  See my
wip/exynos/integ branch at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/khilman/linux.git.

Are there other out of tree dependencies that I'm missing?  Is the
max77802 regulator support that's in mainline sufficient?  or am I
missing some stuff there?

I mis-stated this.  Actually my tree is based on the v3.17-rc1 branch
of the exynos-reference tree[1] + the above mentioned patches for
cpuidle and cpufreq.

Also, I've narrowed down the instability a bit, and it's not related
to CPUidle.  I can now trigger a boot hang even without CPUidle
enabled.  Here's a quick way to cause a boot lockup. With the switcher
disabled, I enable CPUfreq and set the default governor to
performance.  As soon as cpufreq driver loads, it tries to use the top
frequences for both clusters, and it hangs.

Selectively disabling frequencies, I narrowed it down to the 1.3GHz
and 1.2GHz frequencies of the little cluster.  With these commented
out in the DT, it will fully boot with the performance governor
enabled.

So that leads to the question.  Are all of the operating points in
exynos5420.dtsi valid for exynos5800, and have they been validated?

I tried to recreate the boot lockup issue using the same steps you
listed above for the Exynos5800 peach-pi platform (Chromebook2), but I
do not see any issues. I can see both clusters with max clock speed
after boot (1.8GHz and 1.3GHz).

I am using v3.17-rc2 + CPUFreq Patches + max77802 regulator support
patches for Chromebook2 + temp hack to set A15 voltage to 1.35V and A7
voltage to 1.3V.

Sorry for the delaying in following up.

Thanks,
Thomas.

Can you share your branch and temp hack(s) as well as your defconfig?

I'm using the v3.17-rc1 branch from the exynos tree (which includes
the max77802 series) but also has a bunch of other stuff which may be
causing the issue.

It would be good if I can reproduce your exact tree/branch and see if
I still have the same problem.

Thanks for looking into this,

Kevin

The branch with the patches that have been used to test cpufreq on
Exynos5800 is available at

https://github.com/exynos-reference/kernel/tree/exynos5-v3.17-rc3-temp-cpufreq

Please let me know if this works or if there are any issues.

Thanks,
Thomas.

Yes, your branch works fine, but it's because of the last (unposted)
patch on your branch[1]: 
ARM: dts: remove all supplies sourced from tps65090 PMIC

That patch had not been posted, so I hadn't seen it before, but based on
the changelog, it's pretty clear you had the same problems that I had
without it, so I'm not sure why it wasn't mentioned earlier in this
thread.

I also noticed that the "force vdd_arm and vdd_kfc to max voltage" patch
is not actually using the max voltage, which appears to be 1.5V from the
DT, but actually using 1.35 V, however the changelog has no explanation
for this.

One other thing, your temp-cpufreq branch has conflicts with max77802
stuff in the v3.17-rc1 branch of the exynos-reference tree (which I'm
using for CPUidle dependencies, on the PMU series IIRC.)

Are there any plans to update the main referece branch and include
cpufreq?

Kevin

I must have explicitly stated that I am using local changes to get
vdd_arm and vdd_kfc to required levels. I apologize for that. These
are local temporary changes which I did not want to post. I am working
on adding voltage scaling support in arm bL cpufreq driver with which
these local hacks would not be necessary.

At the time of posting, this patch series was only tested on
Exynos5420 based smdk5420 board. There was no regulator support for
peach-pit and peach-pi at that time and so I had not tested this
series on Exynos5800 Chromebook2. But the code was written to be fully
compatible for Exynos5800 as well. It was when you reported a problem
with Exynos5800 that I tested this series on Exynos5800 with the
regulator patches from Javier.

This also is a temporary patch and by "max voltage" I actually meant
max voltage required to operate the cpus and not the max voltage that
the buck can supply.

I haven't checked but probably there is an older version of Javier's
regulator patches in the v3.17-rc1 branch.

Yes, a new branch with all the latest patches (cpufreq + regulator +
temp fixes) will be created. I will let you when that is ready.

Hi Kevin,

A new branch [1] has been created using commits from exynos5-v3.17-rc1
branch + cpufreq + regulator + temp fixes. I have tested this branch
on Exynos5800 Chromebook2 and cpufreq works fine with both ondemand
and performance governors. Please let me know if there are any issues
with this new branch. It is based on v3.17-rc3.

Thanks,
Thomas.

Excellent!  Thank you.

The only thing missing now is the CPUidle support for 5800, and all
that's needed for that is the compatible string patch[1] which Daniel
has queued up.

With that patch, display + CPUidle + CPUfreq are working pretty well on
my exynos5800/chromebook2 with the big.LITTLE switcher disabled.  If I
turn on the switcher, it boots OK, but as soon as I try to run powertop
(upstream v2.6.1) it gets stuck.  Have you tried this branch with the
switcher enabled?

Thanks again for your work on this, we're getting close!  

Kevin

Yes, I have tested switcher + cpufreq + cpuidle with this branch and
there are no issues found. I haven't tested with powertop yet. I will
try and do that and let you know the result.

You mentioned that when you run powertop, it gets stuck. When that
happens, is there any log on the console or does system just turn
unresponsive?

Thanks,
Thomas.

The console is not responsive, but kernel seems busy because I see
periodic timeout messages from the samsung clock driver.

Note that I see these messages when things are functioning normally
also.
