We're also accessing the punit in valleyview_set_rps() and I've seen several patches (in the android x86 kernel) suggesting that we need to take a wakelock while doing this. Regards, Hans

It is quite likely that we do have to guarantee to keep the punit awake during long sequences. That would be an acceptable rationale (but not in the caller!). -Chris

That would be an acceptable rationale (but not in > the caller!). So what would be a good approach, take FORCEWAKE_ALL in valleyview_set_rps() itself (and drop the existing code from vlv_set_rps_idle()) ? Regards, Hans

Why not? If the render well is in rc6 already we don't want to waste power by waking it. The only reason we have to wake up *something* is so that the gpll frequency actually gets changed.

If the register write requires the powerwell, the mmio access will take the powerwell. Manually taking the wakelock has to be for a reason, the one given is bogus. (That is if the register write only requires meda access that is taken, but iirc, rps requires both, so both are taken inside.) If the claimed benefit is indeed real, and there is indeed freedom of choice, we want that inside the mmio accessor to choose the cheaper well. -Chris

The register write doesn't require a power well. It's a sideband access. The punit will simply not change the GPLL frequency if the GPLL is currently not running (which will/can happen when all power wells are asleep). That in itself doesn't sound too back (why change the frequency if the thing isn't even running, right?). But the real problem is that the punit will not let the voltage on the rail to drop either until the new frequency gets programmed into the GPLL. Hence if the GPU goes idle before we've dropped the GPLL frequency to the minimum value, we will waste power by having a needlessly high voltage. Originally we tried to avoid this problem via vlv_force_gfx_clock(), which should just force the GPLL to turn on without powering on any power wells. But that caused some spurious WARNs or something IIRC, so we had to come up with another workaround. And since powering either well is sufficient we chose to use the cheaper media well. > Manually taking the wakelock has to be for a reason, the > one given is bogus.

That explains set_idle() (and would be a better comment that the one there). But not set_rps(), since there we don't care if the write is delayed until the GPU is next active. -Chris

And indeed that doesn't make sense.

All callers of valleyview_set_rps() get at least FORCEWAKE_MEDIA, except for intel_set_rps(). Since intel_set_rps can for example be called from sysfs store functions, there is no guarantee this is already done, so add an intel_uncore_forcewake_get(FORCEWAKE_MEDIA) call to intel_set_rps.
