Well, SoC-B has the GT *and* the DT node, so what is the problem with enabling it for SoC-B?

I'm OK with the way you have changed ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER from a sticky config option to a selectable one, but I would like more details on the problem this was causing you.

They way I read that thread is that you are trying to disable the Global Timer for the wrong reasons, not that having status = "disabled" is not a good choice. DT *does* describe the HW, but there is nothing from stopping someone to say in the DT that a specific HW is OFF. Removing the node description from DT would be wrong, because the HW is there, we just want it disabled. Having status = "disabled" is similar to having a software OFF button. Now, the only issue one might have is when the HW is enabled at power on and active. In that case, marking it with status = "disabled" is indeed wrong, because there's going to be a disconnect between the state of the HW and what the DT says is being active. But the timers are not really active until setup, so you should be able to play with the status property. > ARM GT can't be used as clocksource/sched_clock/clockevent when CPUFreq or > CPUIdle are enabled :(, and this is Linux specific functionality and > not HW description. First of all you probably need to separate the issues you have with TWD versus the GT timer, they are two different pieces of IP and have individual drivers. When it comes to CPUidle, the TWD timer does the right thing: if there is no "always-on" property in the DT then it will set the CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP bit in the features and so the clk framework will know that the clock will be disabled when the core goes idle and will look for another clock source for wakeups. What it does seem to be missing is the CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_PERCPU flag though, but that seems to be a very underused flag in kernel/time/tick-broadcast.c. As for the GT timer and CPUidle, something similar to the TWD timer needs done (i.e set C3STOP feature if the clock is not marked as always on). For the issues that you are seeing with CPUfreq, I'm afraid I need more info on that. > > > > >> > >> - There is no way to disable ARM GT without modifying Kconfig file, > >> once ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER is selected statically in Kconfig file. > > > > What about disabling the DT node? > > > > Not sure I properly understand the problem you are trying to solve here. > > I'd like to have way to enable/disable ARM GT without modifying Kernel sources > (Kconfig specifically) which is now impossible. > > > > >> > >> Hence, fix above case by defining both HAVE_ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER and > >> ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER as recommended by 'Adding common features and make > >> the usage configurable' section in kconfig-language.txt.

I'm not NAK-ing the patch for the moment until we understand if there are better options (and patches) for your problem, but I still fail to see how you are going to use this patch in the scenario that your commit message describes. If you compile a kernel to work on both SoC-A and SoC-B you still end up having GT timer enabled for SoC-B. Maybe commit message needs changed to say something like "Make ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER a selectable feature for builds that want to disable the functionality".

It sounds to me like the cleanest option might then be to address it within the Linux-specific driver itself. How feasible would it be for the GT driver to detect at runtime whether CPUfreq/idle will be used and simply refuse to register as a clocksource if so?

Sorry, but we don't want to have to disable drivers in the kernel just because one platform has a problem (consider the single zImage case where it may be required that the global timer is enabled for some platform to boot - it becomes mandatory in single zImage at that point.) Maybe a linux-specific property is needed here - "linux,low-power-unstable" or something like that?

For example, PM is enabled by loading module for TI am437x and am335x SoCs, but ARM GT is initialized much earlier. Before loading PM module, it is (theoretically) possible to change clocksource and clockevent (unbind) devices, but there is no way to change sched_clock (or timer_delay).

Sorry, but this patch doesn't disable anything. It provides possibility to do a custom build with disabled ARM GT driver without Kernel code modification - in my case RT-kernel and non-RT Kernel should run on same HW and RT kernel should use ARM GT as clocksource/sched_clock, but non-RT Kernel shouldn't. I think RT can't be part of single zImage - it make no sense. > > Maybe a linux-specific property is needed here - "linux,low-power-unstable" > or something like that? > I've tried smth. like this [1] And it is not "unstable", it's will just stop in C3 (CPUIdle) and there no possibility (at least I've not found how to do this) to adjust Freq in case of CPUFreq. [above is about clocksource/sched_clock] [1] http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2015-November/386858.html Oh :(. And it's really hard (I even would say - crazy task) to select proper clocksource/clockevent/sched_clock and timer_delay (opt, arm) when SoC provides few choices.

As I mentioned, I have one HW which can be used in two different configurations and targeted to perform two different function (RT vs non-RT). So, is it expected to burn/replace DT in the above case? Do you replace DT (or u-boot) each time you load new kernel? > >> ARM GT can't be used as clocksource/sched_clock/clockevent when CPUFreq or >> CPUIdle are enabled :(, and this is Linux specific functionality and >> not HW description. > > First of all you probably need to separate the issues you have with TWD versus > the GT timer, they are two different pieces of IP and have individual drivers.

Oh :) There are big difference between clocksource and clockevent devices :( I assume you are talking about clockevent devices then yes, for these kind of timers the broadcast timer is used as backup timer in CPUIdle states. (and TWD is always selected now in favor of ARM GT clockevent device on my HW) But, I need and use ARM GT as clocksource/sched_clock - for these type of timers no backup timers can be registered.

But problem exist anyway ./arch/arm/mach-vexpress/Kconfig: select ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER vs ./arch/arm/mach-zynq/Kconfig: select ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER if !CPU_FREQ as example > > Maybe commit message needs changed to say something like "Make ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER a > selectable feature for builds that want to disable the functionality". I can do that. How about: --- ARM: clocksource: Make ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER a selectable There is no way now to disable ARM GT without modifying Kconfig file, once ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER is selected statically in Kconfig file. Hence, make ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER a selectable feature for builds that want to disable that functionality by defining both HAVE_ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER and ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER as recommended by 'Adding common features and make the usage configurable' section in kconfig-language.txt. All places in ARM folder where ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER was used now replaced on HAVE_ARM_GLOBAL_TIMER. --- [1] https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/6/65 [PATCH] clocksource: Allow toggling between runtime and persistent clocksource for idle

How about a kernel cmdline option for both local timers to disable the selected timer(s)? Tony

Anyway, why can't we use the priority system for clocksources? If ARM GT is problematical, we need a way to register it with a lower priority than the preferred time keeping source. That's exactly what the clocksource priority field is for.
