[PATCH v3 2/3] cpufreq: qcom-nvmem: Preserve PM domain votes in system suspend

From: Stephan Gerhold
Date: Tue Nov 14 2023 - 05:08:19 EST


>From the Linux point of view, the power domains used by the CPU must
stay always-on. This is because we still need the CPU to keep running
until the last instruction, which will typically be a firmware call that
shuts down the CPU cleanly.

At the moment the power domain votes (enable + performance state) are
dropped during system suspend, which means the CPU could potentially
malfunction while entering suspend.

We need to distinguish between two different setups used with
qcom-cpufreq-nvmem:

1. CPR power domain: The backing regulator used by CPR should stay
always-on in Linux; it is typically disabled automatically by
hardware when the CPU enters a deep idle state. However, we
should pause the CPR state machine during system suspend.

2. RPMPD: The power domains used by the CPU should stay always-on
in Linux (also across system suspend). The CPU typically only
uses the *_AO ("active-only") variants of the power domains in
RPMPD. For those, the RPM firmware will automatically drop
the votes internally when the CPU enters a deep idle state.

Make this work correctly by calling device_set_awake_path() on the
virtual genpd devices, so that the votes are maintained across system
suspend. The power domain drivers need to set GENPD_FLAG_ACTIVE_WAKEUP
to opt into staying on during system suspend.

For now we only set this for the RPMPD case. For CPR, not setting it
will ensure the state machine is still paused during system suspend,
while the backing regulator will stay on with "regulator-always-on".

This patch can be merged independently from the pmdomain one for RPMPD.
Both are needed to actually preserve the votes during system suspend but
there is no compile-time dependency.
