I had a general PRCM question regarding this. If an initiator is disabled
(i.e, clocks are OFF and Power state is OFF), then would the PRCM even
care
to look at the IdleAck/Mstandby signal of that initiator? Or in other
words,
look at what the initiator had programmed in it's SYSCONFIG register. If
it
does consider them, it seems like that's bad HW design!

If a PD 9powerdomain) is already in OFF state, that means all the
initiators in
that PD already has standby asserted. The modules in that
PD also have transitioned.


Ah, so if DSS was configured as Nostandby, and if we try to disable DSS, it
would never transition to OFF, and hence never get disabled correctly, hence
giving trouble to PRCM.

So just before disabling DSS, we would need to put it to Force standby, and
then try to cut the clocks and change the power state. Is this correct? If
so, then it's equally messy as the suggested workaround :)

Exactly. That's what I mean. You tweak sysconfig or clockdomain,
both are messy.

Not it's not. We are trying to avoid accessing the sysconfig from the driver, but at least this is a setting local to the IP.

And as you said, we have to do that already do to the various bugs here and there on a lot of IPs.

Playing with clock domain state from the driver is just not acceptable.

if one need to choose between two bad options, I guess sysconifig
one is better because that is local to IPs and there is some way today
for drivers to manage sysconfig directly.

Yes, that's the point.
