Subject: [RFC PATCH v3 0/7] PM / devfreq: Simple QoS for exynos-bus using interconnect

The following patchset adds interconnect[1][2] framework support to the
exynos-bus devfreq driver. Extending the devfreq driver with
interconnect functionality started as a response to the issue referenced
in [3]. The patches can be subdivided into three groups:

(a) Tweaking the interconnect framework to support the exynos-bus use
case (patches 01--03/07). Exporting of_icc_get_from_provider() allows to
avoid hardcoding every single graph edge in the DT or driver source, and
relaxing the requirement on #interconnect-cells removes the need to
provide dummy node IDs in the DT. A new field in struct icc_provider is
used to explicitly allow configuring node pairs from two different
providers.

(b) Implementing interconnect providers in the exynos-bus devfreq driver
and adding required DT properties for one selected platform, namely
Exynos4412 (patches 04--05/07). Due to the fact that this aims to be a
generic driver for various Exynos SoCs, node IDs are generated
dynamically (rather than hardcoded).

(c) Implementing a sample interconnect consumer for exynos-mixer
targeted at solving the issue referenced in [3], again with DT
properties only for Exynos4412 (patches 06--07/07).

Integration of devfreq and interconnect frameworks is achieved by using
the dev_pm_qos_*() API. When CONFIG_INTERCONNECT is 'n' (such as in
exynos_defconfig) all interconnect API functions are no-ops.

This series depends on these three patches (merged into devfreq-next[6]):
* https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11279087/
* https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11279093/
* https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11293765/
and on this series:
* https://patchwork.kernel.org/cover/11304545/
(which does not apply cleanly on next-20191220, adding
--exclude=arch/arm/boot/dts/exynos5422-odroid-core.dtsi to 'git am' is a
quick workaround)

---
Changes since v2 [5]:
* Use icc_std_aggregate().
* Implement a different modification of apply_constraints() in
drivers/interconnect/core.c (patch 03).
* Use 'exynos,interconnect-parent-node' in the DT instead of
'devfreq'/'parent', depending on the bus.
* Rebase on DT patches that deprecate the 'devfreq' DT property.
* Improve error handling, including freeing generated IDs on failure.
* Remove exynos_bus_icc_connect() and add exynos_bus_icc_get_parent().

---
Changes since v1 [4]:
* Rebase on coupled regulators patches.
* Use dev_pm_qos_*() API instead of overriding frequency in
exynos_bus_target().
* Use IDR for node ID allocation.
* Reverse order of multiplication and division in
mixer_set_memory_bandwidth() (patch 07) to avoid integer overflow.

Subject: [RFC PATCH v3 2/7] interconnect: Relax requirement in of_icc_get_from_provider()

This patch relaxes the condition in of_icc_get_from_provider() so that it
is no longer required to set #interconnect-cells = <1> in the DT. In case
of the devfreq driver for exynos-bus, #interconnect-cells is always zero.

It doesn't contain why don't need to require it. If you add more detailed
description, it is better to understand.

Hi Artur,

I agree this approach. On next version, please update exynos-bus
dt-binding document with example.
