Add OCPIF_SWSUP_IDLE flag to all the L3 slave interfaces used by DSS
hwmods so
that clock is explicitly enabled and disabled by software. Without this,
"dss_fck" would be left as enabled and the OMAP4 device won't idle
even when
DSS is not in use.

Yeah, that was done on purpose with Tomi knowning well that limitation.

The issue was mainly due to the lack of proper parent / child
relationship between the DSS (the whole subsystem) and the DSS children
at that time.

I think that Tomi posted a series to fix that for 3.4. So if we ensure
that every DSS IPs are children of the DSS, then pm_runtime will always
ensure that the DSS will be enabled each time a submodule is used.

So the right fix is to put back the proper iclk (l3_div) to the DSS
instead of the dss_fck.

Ok, I get it now. Tomi's patch series ensured the parent-child dependency, but they didn't switch the iclks back to l3_div, I guess that should be a part of the series too.

Thanks,
Archit


The current OMAP4 DSS clock setup is clearly a hack that should be fixed.

Benoit
