That's why genpd is there to help and to model this as "performance states" and to allow operations to be set through SoC specific callabacks, for example. More importantly, the assumption is that in general, consumer drivers should use the OPP library to vote/set OPP levels, they shouldn't call dev_pm_genpd_set_performance_state() - unless they know exactly what they are doing. > > Hence I either need to patch every driver to use dev_pm_opp_set_rate in > order to sync clk rate with the perf level at device runtime, or I need > to preset the rpm perf level to allow GENPD core to set the level before > device is resumed. When the device is getting attached to its genpd (during the probe sequence and for a single PM domain case), runtime PM is disabled for the device. If you would call dev_pm_opp_set_rate() from a genpd callback during attach (without changing the rate), this means you would update/synchronize the vote. In this way, the vote is set before the device is runtime resumed by the driver, right? On the other hand, patching the driver should also be quite simple and you need to do that anyways, don't you? Kind regards Uffe
