full-featured catalog data.

It's set to 120 for all SoCs.. and it sounds very much like some kind of a
hack.

The 105 on the other inefficiency factor is easy to spot:

(1024/1000)^2 = 1.048576 =~= 1.05 = 105%

It comes from a MiB-MB-MHz conversion that Qcom splattered all over
downstream as due to ancient tragical design decisions in msmbus
(which leak to the downstream interconnect a bit):

This doesn't describe, why msm8226 and msm8974 had qcom,mdss-clk-factor
of 5/4. And 8084 got 1.05 as usual. I can only suppose that MDSS 1.0
(8974 v1) and 1.1 (8226) had some internal inefficiency / issues.

Also, this 1.05 is a clock inefficiency, so it should not be related
to msm bus client code.
Right. Maybe Abhinav could shed some light on this.

I will need to check with someone else about this as msm8974 and msm8226 are quite old for me to remember.

That being said, I really dont think the explanation behind the number is going to be something which is going to be explained in detail here even if I did ask.

The name of the variable "clk_inefficiency_factor" says pretty much what has to be said for the purposes of this patch. I dont know if we will be able to go further into how that number came.

Coming to this patch itself, its not a major gain or major loss in my perspective.

Sure, we dont need to pass the full catalog today so we can just pass the perf_cfg. I cannot guarantee we wont need the full catalog later.



The logic needs to get some input that corresponds to a clock rate
of a bus clock (19.2, 200, 300 Mhz etc.) but the APIs expect a Kbps
value. So at one point they invented a MHZ_TO_MBPS macro which did this
conversion the other way around and probably had to account for it.

I think they tried to make it make more sense, but it ended up being
even more spaghetti :/

Not yet sure how it's done on RPMh icc, but with SMD RPM, passing e.g.

opp-peak-kBps = <(200 * 8 * 1000)>; # 200 MHz * 8-wide * KHz-to-MHz

results in a "correct" end rate.

              crtc_plane_bw *= bw_factor;
              do_div(crtc_plane_bw, 100);
