Add changes to invoke rpmh flush() from within cache_lock when the data
in cache is dirty.

This is done only if OSI is not supported in PSCI. If OSI is supported
rpmh_flush can get invoked when the last cpu going to power collapse
deepest low power mode.

Also remove "depends on COMPILE_TEST" for Kconfig option QCOM_RPMH so the
driver is only compiled for arm64 which supports psci_has_osi_support()
API.

Hi Maulik,
Thanks for spinning this so promptly.

Oh nice, I didn't even see that comment. We should probably replace
that with a comment indicating that we assume ctrlr->cache_lock is
already held.

Please also remove this comment in rpmh_flush():
        /*
         * Nobody else should be calling this function other than system PM,
         * hence we can run without locks.
         */

It's been a long time since I looked in depth at RPMH, but upon a
first glance this seems like it's gonna be terrible for performance.
You're going to send every entry again and again, aren't you?  In
other words in pseudo-code:

1. rpmh_write(addr=0x10, data=0x99);
==> writes on the bus (0x10, 0x99)

2. rpmh_write(addr=0x11, data=0xaa);
==> writes on the bus (0x10, 0x99)
==> writes on the bus (0x11, 0xaa)

3. rpmh_write(addr=0x10, data=0xbb);
==> writes on the bus (0x10, 0xbb)
==> writes on the bus (0x11, 0xaa)

4. rpmh_write(addr=0x12, data=0xcc);
==> writes on the bus (0x10, 0xbb)
==> writes on the bus (0x11, 0xaa)
==> writes on the bus (0x12, 0xcc)

That seems bad.  Why can't you just send the new request itself and
forget adding it to the cache?  In other words don't even call
cache_rpm_request() in the non-OSI case and then in __rpmh_write()
just send right away...

I tried to test this and my printouts didn't show anything actually
happening in rpmh_flush().  Maybe I just don't have the write patches
to exercise this properly...

I'm curious: why not just do:

if (state != RPMH_ACTIVE_ONLY_STATE && psci_has_osi_support()) {
  cache_batch(ctrlr, req);
  return 0;
}

...AKA don't even cache it up if we're not in OSI mode.  IIUC this
would be a huge deal because with your code you're doing the whole
RPMH transfer under "spin_lock_irqsave", right?  And presumably RPMH
transfers are somewhat slow, otherwise why did anyone come up with
this whole caching / last-man-down scheme to start with?

OK, it turned out to be at least slightly more complex because it
appears that we're supposed to use rpmh_rsc_write_ctrl_data() for
sleep/wake stuff and that they never do completions, but it really
wasn't too hard.  I prototyped it at <http://crrev.com/c/2080916>.
Feel free to hijack that change if it looks like a starting point and
if it looks like I'm not too confused.

Interesting that you removed this comment but not the copy of the
comment inside this function.  Was that on purpose?

Hi Doug,

No this is NOT how data is sent to RPMh/AOSS.
The rpmh_flush() fills up DRV-2 (HLOS) TCSes, makes it ready and The HW 
takes care of
sending data of Sleep TCSes for each of the EL/ DRV(s) when Last cpu is 
going to deepest
low power mode and of WAKE TCSes while first cpu is waking up.

> forget adding it to the cache?  In other words don't even call

This won’t work out. Let me explain why…

We have 3 SLEEP and 3 WAKE TCSes from below config..
                         qcom,tcs-config = <ACTIVE_TCS  2>,
                                           <SLEEP_TCS   3>,
                                           <WAKE_TCS    3>,
Each TCS has total 16 commands so total 48 commands(16*3) for each SLEEP 
and WAKE TCSes,
that can be filled up.

Now Lets take a example in pseudo-code on what could happen if we don’t 
cache and
immediately fill up TCSes commands. The triggering part doesn’t happen 
as explained above
it fills up TCSes and makes them ready..

Time-t0 (from client_x invoking rpmh_write_batch() for SLEEP SET, a 
batch of 3 commands)

rpmh_write_batch(
addr=0x10, data=0x99,  -> fills up CMD0 in SLEEP TCS_0
addr=0x11, data=0xaa,  -> fills up CMD1 in SLEEP TCS_0
addr=0x10, data=0xbb); -> fills up CMD2 in SLEEP TCS_0

Time-t1 (from client_y invoking rpmh_write(), a single command)

rpmh_write(
addr=0x12, data=0xcc,  -> fills up CMD3 in SLEEP TCS_0
);

Time-t2 (from client_x invokes rpmh_invalidate() which invalidates all 
previous *batch requests* only)

At this point, it should have CMD3 only in TCS while CMD 0,1,2 needs to 
be freed up, since we expect
a new batch request now.

Since driver didn’t cache anything in the first place, it doesn’t know 
details about previous batch request
like how many commands it had, what were the commands of those batches 
when filling up in TCSes, and so on…
(basically all the data required to free up only CMD 0,1,2, and don’t 
disturb CMD3)

Whats more?

The new batch request could be of let say 5 commands after invalidation, 
instead of 3 commands in previous batch.
So it will not fit in CMD-0,1,2 and we might want to allocate from 
CMD-4,5,6,7,8 now.

This will leave a hole in TCS CMDs (each TCS has 16 total commands) 
unless we re-arrange everything.
Also we may want to fill up batch request first and then single 
requests, by not caching anything, driver don’t
know which one is batch and which one is single request.

There are other cases like below which also gets impacted if driver 
don't cache anything...

for example, when we don’t have dedicated ACTIVE TCS ( if we have below 
config with ACTIVE TCS count 0)
     qcom,tcs-config = <ACTIVE_TCS  0>,
                           <SLEEP_TCS   3>,
                           <WAKE_TCS    3>,

Now to send active data, driver may re-use/ re-purpose few of the sleep 
or wake TCS, to be used as ACTIVE TCS and once work is done,
it will be re-allocated in SLEEP/ WAKE TCS pool accordingly. If driver 
don’t cache, all the SLEEP and WAKE data is lost when one
of TCS is repurposed to use as ACTIVE TCS.

Hope above explanation clears why caching is important and gives clear 
view of caching v/s not caching.

Thanks,
Maulik

I looked at this change and thought of it earlier but it won’t work out 
for the reasons in above example.
I have thought of few optimizations in rpmh_flush() to reduce its time, 
if we *really* see any performance impact…

below is high level idea…
When  rpmh_write_batch() is invoked for SLEEP_SETs, currently 
rpmh_flush() will update both SLEEP and WAKE TCS contents,
However we may change it to update only SLEEP TCS, and when 
rpmh_write_batch() is invoked for WAKE SETs, update only WAKE TCS contents.
This way it may reduce time by roughly ~50%.

Ah, I see.  So for sleep / wake commands we never directly wait for
them to go out on the bus while the system is awake.  We just program
them all to the RPMH hardware and they'll set there and all get sent
automatically when the last CPU goes into deepest low power mode.

...so actually the whole point of OSI mode (from an RPMH perspective)
is not to avoid transactions on the bus.  It's just avoiding
programming RPMH over and over again.  Is that correct?

...and the reason we have all these data structures in the kernel is
to keep track of auxiliary information about the things in the
sleep/wake TCSs and make it easier to update bits of them?

OK, I got it now.  I'll try to spend some time tomorrow looking over
everything / testing with my new understanding.

Ah, interesting.  I'll read the code more, but are you expecting this
type of situation to work today, or is it theoretical for the future?

I ended up pulling those in but I was still not seeing things work as
I expected.  I'll debug more tomorrow to see if it was my expectations
that were wrong or if there was a real issue.

OK, that's something to keep in mind.  Agree that it doesn't have the

My brain is still slowly absorbing all the code, but something tells
me that targets with no ACTIVE TCS will not work properly with non-OSI
mode unless you change your patches more.  Specifically to make the
zero ACTIVE TCS case work I think you need a rpmh_flush() call after
_ALL_ calls to rpmh_write() and rpmh_write_batch() (even those
modifying ACTIVE state).  rpmh_write_async() will be yet more
interesting because you'd have to flush in rpmh_tx_done() I guess?
...and also somehow you need to inhibit entering sleep mode if an
async write was in progress?  Maybe easier to just detect the
"non-OSI-mode + 0 ACTIVE TCS" case at probe time and fail to probe?

No, it shouldn’t break with "non-OSI-mode + 0 ACTIVE TCS"

After taking your suggestion to do rpmh start/end transaction in v13, rpmh_end_transaction()
invokes rpmh_flush() only for the last client and by this time expecting all of rpmh_write()
and rpmh_write_batch() will be already “finished” as client first waits for them to finish
and then only invokes end.

So driver is good to handle rpmh_write() and rpmh_write_batch() calls.

Regarding rpmh_write_async() call, which is a fire-n-forget request from SW and client driver
may immediately invoke rpmh_end_transaction() after this.

this case is also handled…
Lets again take an example for understanding this..

1.    Client invokes rpmh_write_async() to send ACTIVE cmds for targets which has zero ACTIVE TCS

    Rpmh driver Re-purposes one of SLEEP/WAKE TCS to use as ACTIVE, internally this also sets
    drv->tcs_in_use to true for respective SLEEP/WAKE TCS.

2.    Client now without waiting for above to finish, goes ahead and invokes rpmh_end_transaction()
    which calls rpmh_flush() (in case cache become dirty)

    Now if re-purposed TCS is still in use in HW (transaction in progress), we still have
    drv->tcs_in_use set. So the rpmh_rsc_invalidate() (invoked from rpmh_flush()) will keep on
    returning -EAGAIN until that TCS becomes free to use and then goes ahead to finish its job.
