[PATCH RFC V2] Add driver for dvfsrc, support for active state of scpsys

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The patchsets add support for MediaTek hardware module named DVFSRC
(dynamic voltage and frequency scaling resource collector). The DVFSRC is
a HW module which is used to collect all the requests from both software
and hardware and turn into the decision of minimum operating voltage and
minimum DRAM frequency to fulfill those requests.

So, This series is to implement the dvfsrc driver to collect all the
requests of operating voltage or DRAM bandwidth from other device drivers
likes GPU/Camera through 2 frameworks basically:

1. interconnect framework: to aggregate the bandwidth
   requirements from different clients

Below is the emi bandwidth map of mt8183. There has a hw module "DRAM scheduler"
which used to control the throughput. The DVFSRC will collect forecast data
of dram bandwidth from SW consumers(camera/gpu...), and according the forecast
to change the DRAM frequency

2. Active state management of power domains[1]: to handle the operating
   voltage opp requirement from different power domains

Changes in RFC V2:
* Remove the DT property dram_type. (Rob)
* Used generic dts property 'opp-level' to get the performace state. (Stephen)
* Remove unecessary dependency config on Kconfig. (Stephen)
* Remove unused header file, fixed some coding style issue, typo,
error handling on dvfsrc driver. (Nicolas/Stephen)
* Remove irq handler on dvfsrc driver. (Stephen)
* Remove init table on dvfsrc driver, combine hw init on trustzone.
* Add interconnect support of mt8183 to aggregate the emi bandwidth.
