[PATCH 00/13] cpuidle: psci: Support hierarchical CPU arrangement

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

 



This series enables initial support for hierarchical CPU arrangement, managed
by PSCI and its corresponding cpuidle driver. It's based on using the generic
PM domain (genpd), which nowadays also supports devices belonging to CPUs.

The last DTS patch enables the hierarchical topology to be used for the Qcom
410c Dragonboard, which supports the PSCI OS-initiated mode.

Do note, most of the code in this series have been posted earlier, but from the
latest version being reviewed, we agreed on that it was better to re-work the
PSCI backend driver as a first step, simply to get a clean interface towards the
cpuidle driver.

Summary of the main-changes since the last submission [1]:

 - Moved implementation from the psci FW dricer into cpuidle-psci.

 - Re-requesting review of the DT bindings, as we have moved to yaml. No
   changes as such, but tried to clarify a few things in the text.

 - Drop the patch enabling support for CPU hotplug, postponing that to the next
   step.

 - Respect the hierarchical topology in DT only when OSI mode is supported.
   This is to start simple and we can always extend the support on top.

The series is also available at:

Kind regards
