V1 patch@https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11386469/ caused SC7180 system
to reset at boot time.

As QUP core clock is shared among all the SE drivers present on particular
QUP wrapper, the reset seen is due to earlycon usage after QUP core clock
is put to 0 from other SE drivers before real console comes up.

As earlycon can't vote for it's QUP core need, to fix this add ICC
support to common/QUP wrapper driver and put vote for QUP core from
probe on behalf of earlycon and remove vote during sys suspend.

The v1 patch isn't relevant in the commit message, please just describe the
problem. Also the crash only occurs when earlycon is used.

Only removing the vote on suspend isn't ideal, the system might never get
suspended. That said I don't have a really good alternative suggestion.

One thing you could possibly do is to launch a delayed work, check
console_device() every second or so and remove the vote when it returns
non-NULL. Not claiming this would be a great solution ...

The cleanest solution might be a notifier when the early console is
unregistered, it seems somewhat over-engineered though ... Then again
other (future) uart drivers with interconnect support might run into
the same problem.

What is ugly about this is that it's done for every QUP, not only the one
with the early console. Again, I don't have a good solution for it, maybe
it's a limitation we have to live with :(

I think you only want to do this on the first suspend.

Do we need to handle the case where no 'real' console is configured?
In this case the early console would be active forever and setting
the bandwidths to 0 might cause a similar crash than the one you are
trying to fix. Not sure if that's a real world use case, but wanted to
mention it. Maybe this is an argument of the notifier approach?

Aborting suspend seems too harsh since the QUP should still be fully
functional unless there is a general problem with the interconnects.

I would suggest to change the log to dev_warn() and return 0.

We are hitting this problem because QUP core clocks are shared among all 
the SE driver present in particular QUP wrapper, if other HW controllers 
has similar architecture we will hit this issue.

How about if we expose an API from common driver(geni-se) for putting 
QUP core BW vote to 0.

We call this from console probe just after uart_add_one_port call 
(console resources are enabled as part of this call) to put core quota 
to 0 on behalf of earlyconsole?

There is one more limitation from QUP core side. Core clocks for both 
the QUP wrapper runs at same speed.

core2x_1 = core2x_2 = max(core2x_1, core2x_2);

So with above limitation and if we are removing early con vote from Core 
when real console comes up. It doesn't matter whether it's done for 
every QUP or the only with early console.

Ok, I can add that logic using global variable.

We can't support earlycon without real console.

As earlyconsole doesn't do any kind of resource enablement(SE clocks, 
pinctrl, etc) it assumes that resources are already enabled from 
previous stages.

So if real console doesn't come up no one will vote for that SE clock, 
and it will be disabled from clk late_init call which will result into 
un-clocked access.

Ok

Thanks for reviewing the patch.

From my notes from earlier debugging I have doubts this would work:

  There is a short window where the early console and the 'real' console coexist:

  [    3.858122] printk: console [ttyMSM0] enabled
  [    3.875692] printk: bootconsole [qcom_geni0] disabled

  The reset probably occurs when the early console tries to write, but the ICC
  is effectively disabled because ttyMSM0 and the other geni ports are runtime
  suspended.

it's still sorta ugly at an abstraction level, but it seem we have to be
pragmatic here.

Ok, IIUC what you are saying is that earlycon can't work on its own after geni
initialization. Because it clearly can work before (otherwise what would be
its purpose?), supposedly because the bootloader configures the necessary
bits.

In any case the bottom line is that earlycon requires a real console to be
configured and there is no need to handle the corner case I brought up.

Hm, these boot proxy votes are annoying, since the whole house of
cards comes down if you replace these votes in the wrong order.

I believe consensus in the other patches was to consolidate most of
the interconnect support into the common SE code, right? Would that
help you with these boot proxy votes? What I'm thinking is something
along the lines of:
 * SPI, I2C, UART all call into the new common geni_se_icc_on/off()
(or whatever it's called)
 * If geni_se_icc_off() sees that console UART hasn't voted yet, save
the votes but don't actually call icc_set(0) now.
 * Once uart votes for the first time, call icc_set() on all of SPI,
I2C, UART to get things back in sync.

That's a sort of roll-your-own solution for GENI, but we do have this
problem elsewhere as well. A more general solution would be to have
the interconnect providers prop things up (ie ignore votes to lower
bandwidth) until some "go" moment where we feel we've enumerated all
devices. I was originally thinking to model this off of something like
clk_disable_unused(), but after chatting with Stephen it's clear
late_initcall's aren't really indicative of all devices having
actually come up. So I'm not sure where the appropriate "go" moment
is.

I ran across this gem the other day, which explains why I get a bunch
of regulator yells 30 seconds after bootup:

/*
 * We punt completion for an arbitrary amount of time since
 * systems like distros will load many drivers from userspace
 * so consumers might not always be ready yet, this is
 * particularly an issue with laptops where this might bounce
 * the display off then on.  Ideally we'd get a notification
 * from userspace when this happens but we don't so just wait
 * a bit and hope we waited long enough.  It'd be better if
 * we'd only do this on systems that need it, and a kernel
 * command line option might be useful.
 */
schedule_delayed_work(&regulator_init_complete_work,
      msecs_to_jiffies(30000));

...but that also means that this is basically an unsolved problem.  I
suppose one thing you could do would be to centralize this "30 seconds
after bootup" for several subsystems (regulator, clock, interconnect,
...) and then at least it would leave a nice place for someone to do
better...  ;-)

Code flow from console driver probe(qcom_geni_serial.c)

uart_add_one_port--->uart_configure_port--->{ 1) uart_change_pm(enable 
console resources)  2)register_console(boot to real console switch 
happens here)}

Console resources are not disabled from anywhere before the switch 
happens completely. I meant to say until we saw below logs.

[    3.875692] printk: bootconsole [qcom_geni0] disabled

I think the board reset issue cannot occur during the window where early 
console and 'real' console coexist.

I have validated proposed solution by me, it is working fine.

Currently voting is done for every QUP and not only to which earlycon is 
connect, with the above approach we can't remove vote from other QUPs.

However we can limit voting only to earlycon QUP by removing 
interconnect from DT node of other QUPs.

I am not sure how clean is this solution.

How about if we limit voting only to earlycon QUP by removing 
interconnect from DT node of other QUPs.?

If there is no real console then earlyconsole should work until clk 
driver disables unvoted SE clocks.

Yes, early console depends on bootloader to enable neccessary resources 
for it. I guess currently Coreboot console driver is doing that.

Yes that is correct. We can't support earlyconsole for long without 
having a real console.

I think what Matthias suggested is to maintain ICC functions defined 
across I2C, SPI and UART as a library in common SE code.

Still every SE driver will interact with ICC framework individually 
rather than using common SE driver as a bridge.

IIUC, you are suggesting to enhancing ICC 
design@https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10774897/ [The very first ICC 
patch posted during sdm845 timeframe].

Where common SE driver aggregate real time BW requirement from all the 
SE driver and put net request to ICC framework.

We received comments on that version of ICC to move voting to individual 
SE driver from common driver. Hence we updated the design accordingly.

Thanks for reviewing

Right, I'm sort of proposing a blend here, where the individual
drivers pass through the SE library, which looks at some shared state,
and may defer sending the votes during boot time. I was thinking
consolidating this into SE engine library code may make it easier for
you to peek at that shared state.

I think most of the reaction to that original series came from the
fact that the common SE code was doing aggregation work, which is
something the interconnect core was designed to do. In the solution
I'm proposing, the SE library either passes through votes as-is, or
delays them until the console UART has voted, at which time it passes
them all down as they were.

You could still make the case this is something the interconnect core
should help us with, which is why I was brainstorming about the
provider propping up votes until some probe-finished deadline, maybe
just a 30 second timer :)

Thanks for the clarification! Indeed my notes were only a hypothesis, I
don't see evidence that there is an actual downvote shortly after console
registration.

I'm more inclined towards a solution along the lines of what Evan
proposed, i.e. delaying the votes (either in geni or ICC) until we
are ready.

Based on discussion I think the delayed solution is most suited if 
implemented in ICC core because other ICC client might face the similar 
problem.

However for geni case I am more inclined towards below proposed solution.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How about if we expose an API from common driver(geni-se) for putting QUP
core BW vote to 0.

We call this from console probe just after uart_add_one_port call (console
resources are enabled as part of this call) to put core quota to 0 on behalf
of earlyconsole?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I think below are the pros and cons for above solution.

Pros:

1) Not only it'll solve the current issue also it'll lay foundation to 
support earlyconsole without having a real console. In future if needed 
we can enable rest of the earlyconsole resources(SE clocks) from common 
driver to make it independent of real console.

2) Inorder to solve bug:120934049(Add runtime PM support to common 
driver and move enablement/disablement of AHB clocks there) reported by 
Stephen Boyd, we'll end up adding ICC support to this driver because as 
per HPG the order of enabling the QUP clocks should be 
(Core-->AHB-->SE(per engine)). So we need to have the minimal possible 
vote on QUP core before enabling AHB clocks.

I agree still we have keep earlycon fix as it is(vote from common driver 
probe and remove once real console is up) .

I mentioned above bug in case it seems silly to add ICC support to 
common driver just for earlyconsole fix.

Cons:

1) As Evan mentioned and I agree that the whole house of cards comes 
down if we replace these votes in the wrong order. But I think this is 
very unlikely to happen once fixed.

2) As Matthias mentioned we are voting for all the QUPs regardless 
earlycon is present or not, I think this is HW limitation and we have to 
live with it.

Even if I try something like below the QUP1 can come up before 
QUP2(console) and child of QUP1 can remove vote from share QUP clocks.

if (of_get_compatible_child(pdev->dev.of_node, "qcom,geni-debug-uart")) {

     ret = icc_set_bw(wrapper->icc_path_geni_to_core, Bps_to_icc(1000),

         Bps_to_icc(1000));

}


Thanks,

Akash

This seems ok to me. Earlycon sets up a vote, and then real probe
tears it down. As long as in the shuffle of all of these things into
SE library helpers you still have a way of differentiating the
earlycon vote from the real vote. In other words, don't reuse this
early icc_path for the real UART vote. You should probably also
destroy the path once you've voted zero on it.

Thanks for confirming, I will not use early icc_path for real console 
and I will destroy it once voted to 0 from real console probe.

Note though that the boot console will outlive the real console when the
kernel is booted with "keep_bootcon" on the command line (something I do
from time to time).

So rather than relying on "real probe" to signal when we can release the
earlycon's icc vote I think we should specify dev->con->exit in
qcom_geni_serial_earlycon_setup(), so that it will signal when the
earlycon actually goes away - and until that point the clocks should
just be on.

Maintaining the early and real votes completely separate sounds like a
sure way to keep this sane; and there's no drawback on having multiple
votes for the same thing and rely on the framework to keep track of the
various users.

Okay,
