GDSCs cannot be transitioned into a Retention state in SW.
When either the RETAIN_MEM bit, or both the RETAIN_MEM and
RETAIN_PERIPH bits are set, and the GDSC is left ON, the HW
takes care of retaining the memory/logic for the domain when
the parent domain transitions to power collapse/power off state.

On some platforms where the parent domains lowest power state
itself is Retention, just leaving the GDSC in ON (without any
RETAIN_MEM/RETAIN_PERIPH bits being set) will also transition
it to Retention.

The existing logic handling the PWRSTS_RET seems to set the
RETAIN_MEM/RETAIN_PERIPH bits if the cxcs offsets are specified
but then explicitly turns the GDSC OFF as part of _gdsc_disable().
Fix that by leaving the GDSC in ON state.

v3:
Updated changelog

There are a few existing users of PWRSTS_RET and I am not
sure if they would be impacted with this change

1. mdss_gdsc in mmcc-msm8974.c, I am expecting that the
gdsc is actually transitioning to OFF and might be left
ON as part of this change, atleast till we hit system wide
low power state.
If we really leak more power because of this
change, the right thing to do would be to update .pwrsts for
mdss_gdsc to PWRSTS_OFF_ON instead of PWRSTS_RET_ON
I dont have a msm8974 hardware, so if anyone who has can report
any issues I can take a look further on how to fix it.

Unfortunately indeed this patch makes problems on msm8974, at least on
fairphone-fp2 hardware.

With this patch in place, the screen doesn't initialize correctly in
maybe
80% of boots and is stuck in weird states, mostly just becomes
completely
blue.

Kernel log at least sometimes includes messages like this:
[ 25.847541] dsi_cmds2buf_tx: cmd dma tx failed, type=0x39,
data0=0x51,
len=8, ret=-110

Do you have anything I can try on msm8974? For now, reverting this patch
makes display work again on v6.1

hmm, I was really expecting this to leak more power than break anything
functionally, Did you try moving to PWRSTS_OFF_ON instead of PWRSTS_RET_ON
for mdss_gdsc?

Hi Rajendra,

yes with this change the display init works fine again. Do you think this is
the intended solution then? I also haven't tested really more than this
simple case.

Let me know what you think.

Any feedback on this? Would be great to get this fixed sometime soon, quite
annoying to carry a patch for this locally.

Hi Luca, really sorry I seem to have completely missed your previous
email. Yes, moving the gdsc from PWRSTS_RET_ON to PWRSTS_OFF_ON seems to
be the right thing to do. The behavior of the RET state was same as that
of OFF prior to my patch, so the change should ideally make display go
back to having the same behavior as before.
I can certainly ack the change if you send in a patch.
thanks,
Rajendra

2. gpu_gx_gdsc in gpucc-msm8998.c and

gpu_gx_gdsc in gpucc-sdm660.c

Both of these seem to add support for 3 power state
OFF, RET and ON, however I dont see any logic in gdsc
driver to handle 3 different power states.
So I am expecting that these are infact just transitioning
between ON and OFF and RET state is never really used.
The ideal fix for them would be to just update their resp.
.pwrsts to PWRSTS_OFF_ON only.
