Until now, the devfreq driver using polling mode like simple_ondemand governor have used only deferrable timer for reduing the redundant power consumption. It reduces the CPU wake-up from idle due to polling mode which check the status of Non-CPU device. But, it has a problem for Non-CPU device like DMC device with DMA operation. Some Non-CPU device need to do monitor continously regardless of CPU state in order to decide the proper next status of Non-CPU device. So, add support the dealyed timer for polling mode to support the periodical monitoring. The devfreq driver and user can select the kind of timer on either deferrable and delayed timer. For example, change the timer type of DMC device based on Exynos5422-based Odroid-XU3 as following: - If want to use deferrable timer as following: echo deferrable > /sys/class/devfreq/10c20000.memory-controller/timer - If want to use delayed timer as following: echo delayed > /sys/class/devfreq/10c20000.memory-controller/timer Suggested-by: Lukasz Luba <lukasz.luba@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Chanwoo Choi <cw00.choi@samsung.com> --- Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-devfreq | 12 +++ drivers/devfreq/devfreq.c | 83 ++++++++++++++++++- include/linux/devfreq.h | 9 ++ 3 files changed, 103 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
