[PATCH 0/2] omap_wdt: fix interface clock handling

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

 



The runtime PM does not offer enough granularity to control
individual clocks separately as needed. Current pm implementation
of omap_wdt blocks the CORE power domain from idling in
OMAP SoC, as it keeps the interface clock of the watchdog always
on. This causes severe power leakage in devices where 
the omap watchdog is in active use.

This patch set reverts the omap_wdt move to runtime_pm and
introduces a tight control of the interface clock in the driver
to only enable it when registers are accessed. The patch is
based on earlier patch by Atal Shargorodsky.

If anyone has good suggestions how to fix this with runtime_pm,
feel free to propose patches. Otherwise I suggest we revert
back to something that works.

Tested with RX-51 S4.0 Macroboard, linux-omap-pm/pm branch and
MeeGo armv7l release.
