Subject[PATCH v8 00/26] PM / Domains: Support hierarchical CPU arrangement (PSCI/ARM)
Date
Changes in v8:
- Added some tags for reviews and acks.
- Cleanup timer patch (patch6) according to comments from Rafael.
- Rebased series on top of v4.18rc1 - it applied cleanly, except for patch 5.
- While adopting patch 5 to new genpd changes, I took the opportunity to
improve the new function description a bit.
- Corrected malformed SPDX-License-Identifier in patch20.

Changes in v7:
- Addressed comments concerning the PSCI changes from Mark Rutland, which moves
the psci firmware driver to a new firmware subdir and change to force PSCI PC
mode during boot to cope with kexec'ed booted kernels.
- Added some maintainers in cc for the timer/nohz patches.
- Minor update to the new genpd governor, taking into account the state's
poweroff latency while validating the sleep duration time.
- Addressed a problem pointed out by Geert Uytterhoeven, around calling
pm_runtime_get|put() for CPUs that has not been attached to a CPU PM domain.
- Re-based on Linus' latest master.

Some background:

Overall this series have been discussed over years at various Linux conferences
and LKML, although let me give a brief introduction and then the rest can be
read in each changelog.

For ARM, the PSCI firmware interface may be managing the power to the CPUs.
Depending on the SoC, CPUs may also be arranged in hierarchical manner, which
could add another level of complexity from a CPU idle management point of view.

PSCI v1.0+ adds support for the so called OS initiated CPU suspend mode, which
enables a more fine grained method, allowing Linux to get more control, in
regards to being energy efficient. This is typically useful for these kind of
complex battery driven platforms.

Now, in principle what is missing today around CPU idle management for these
SoCs arranging CPUs in a hierarchical manner, that is what this series intends
to address.

- Patch 1 -> Patch 12: The first part are generic changes to genpd, cpu_pm,
timers, cpuidle and DT. Of course the solution is based on an opt-in method,
so no users should be affected of any of these changes.

- Patch 13 -> Patch 26: The second part are changes to PSCI and ARM64, which
deploys the support for CPU idle management, based upon the new generic
changes from the first part.

The series is based on v4.18rc1 and the code has been tested on a QCOM 410c
dragonboard. You may find the code at:

Kind regards
