Invalid accesses might end up in HW hangs. Ex. A hang is seen if display register is accessed on BYT while display power island is power gated. This patch is covering all the IOCTLs with get/put. TODO: limit runtime_get/put to IOCTLs that accesses HW Signed-off-by: Naresh Kumar Kachhi <naresh.kumar.kachhi@xxxxxxxxx>Nack on the concept. We need to have get/put calls for the individual functional blocks of the hw, which then in turn (if it's not the top-level power domain) need to grab references to the next up power domain. Splattering unconditional get/puts over all driver entry points is bad style and imo also too fragile. Also, with Paulos final runtime pm/pc8 unification patches and Imre's display power well patches for byt we should have full coverage already. Have you looked at the work of these too?I'm still in debt with the BYT specific power domain patches, I want to post them (this week) after I sorted out spurious pipe stat IRQs we'd receive atm with the power well off. Until then there is only the WIP version at: https://github.com/ideak/linux/commits/powerwells But in practice, as you point out the plan was to only call modeset_update_power_wells() during modeset time and that will end up doing the proper RPM get/put as necessary. Similarly on some other code paths like connector detect and HW state read-out code, we'd ask only for the needed power domains which would end up doing the RPM get/put. --Imre Hi Imre, I tried to go through your and Paulo's patches (http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/16952/). As per my understanding we are doing disp power well gate/ungate independent of we are in runtime_suspend/resume state we might face problem here as on BYT interrupts are routed through display power well, so we might have a situation where display power island is power gated, but render workload is still active. As we won't be receiving any interrupt __wait_seq_no will stall and we might end up in a TDR. We will not see the issue until display power gating is enabled. I will try to include a test to cover this test This can be avoided by adding display_get/put in runtime_resume/suspend. I am not sure if this scenario will be applicable for HSW. Need for covering ioclts: However there is one more problem for LP platforms. Once display/render/media power islands are power gated, system will enter into deeper sleep state causing Gunit to power gate. We will loose the state once Gunit resumes, so Gunit restore and ring initialization is required in runtime_resume. Even after adding these to runtime_suspend/resume, we will have to make sure all the ring activities, Gunit register accesses are covered with runtime_get/put. There are few places with current implementation where we might hit this problem. Example: i915_batchbuffer(ioctl)->i915_batchbuffer (gpu commands scheduled) i915_irq_emit(ioctl) -> i915_emit_irq (gpu commands scheduled) i915_cmdbuffer (ioctl) -> i915_dispatch_cmdbuffer-> i915_emit_cmds(gpu commands scheduled) There are few more. These ioclts not being covered with runtime_get/put will might cause invalid executions if we are resuming for deeper power state (gunit was powergated). solutions: >From design perspective, we can cover all accesses at low level, but this means a lot of get/put and also will have to make sure that we cover future accesses as well. As an other solution we can cover these ioctls individually or can have a wrapper function (as purposed in this patch) to cover the accesses (TODO: make them conditional to do get/put on few ioclts only). I will try to upload refined patch with conditional get/put. Thanks, Naresh |
