Re: [PATCH 10/10] cpuidle: cpuidle driver for MIPS CPS

On 01/15/2014 02:55 PM, Paul Burton wrote:
This patch introduces a cpuidle driver implementation for the MIPS
Coherent Processing System (ie. Coherence Manager, Cluster Power
Controller). It allows for use of the following idle states:

  - Coherent wait. This is the usual MIPS wait instruction.

  - Non-coherent wait. In this state a core will disable coherency with
    the rest of the system before running the wait instruction. This
    eliminates coherence interventions which would typically be used to
    keep cores coherent.

These two states lay the groundwork for deeper states to be implemented
later, since all deeper states require the core to become non-coherent.

You can't do that in this function where the local irqs are disabled. IMO, if you set CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK and CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP, you should see a kernel warning.

I am not sure CPUIDLE_FLAG_COUPLED is the solution for this driver. IIUC, with the IPI above and the wakeup sync with the couple states, this driver is waking up everybody instead of sleeping as much as possible.

I would recommend to have a look at a different approach, like the one used for cpuidle-ux500.c.
