This change breaks cpufreq (with ondemand scheduler) on my BPi R64
board (having MT7622AV SoC with MT6380N PMIC).
...
[ 2.540091] cpufreq: __target_index: Failed to change cpu frequency: -22
[ 2.556985] cpu cpu0: cpu0: failed to scale up voltage!
...
(repeating a lot, every time the highest operating point is selected
by the cpufreq governor)

The reason is that the MT6380N doesn't support 1360000uV on the supply
outputs used for SRAM and processor.

As for some reason cpufreq-mediatek tries to rise the SRAM supply
voltage to the maximum for a short moment (probably a side-effect of
the voltage tracking algorithm), this fails because the PMIC only
supports up to 1350000uV. As the highest operating point is anyway
using only 1310000uV the simple fix is setting 1350000uV as the maximum
instead for both proc_max_volt and sram_max_volt.

A similar situation applies also for BPi R2 (MT7623NI with MT6323L
PMIC), here the maximum supported voltage of the PMIC which also only
supports up to 1350000uV, and the SoC having its highest operating
voltage defined at 1300000uV.

If all agree with the simple fix I will post a patch for that.

However, to me it feels fishy to begin with that the tracking algorithm
tries to rise the voltage above the highest operating point defined in
device tree, see here:

6a17b3876bc830 drivers/cpufreq/mediatek-cpufreq.c (Jia-Wei Chang 2022-05-05 19:52:20 +0800 100) new_vsram = clamp(new_vproc + soc_data->min_volt_shift,
6a17b3876bc830 drivers/cpufreq/mediatek-cpufreq.c (Jia-Wei Chang 2022-05-05 19:52:20 +0800 101) soc_data->sram_min_volt, soc_data->sram_max_volt);

However, I did not investigate in depth the purpose of this
initial rise and can impossibly test my modifications to the
tracking algorithm on all supported SoCs.

Thanks for actually reporting that, I don't think that there's any
valid reason why the algorithm should set a voltage higher than the
maximum votage specified in the fastest OPP.

Anyway - the logic for the platform data of this driver is to declare
the maximum voltage that SoC model X supports, regardless of the actual
board-specific OPPs, so that part is right; to solve this issue, I guess
that the only way is for this driver to parse the OPPs during .probe()
and then always use in the algorithm

vproc_max = max(proc_max_volt, opp_vproc_max);
vsram_max = max(sram_max_volt, vsram_vreg_max);

Jia-Wei, can you please handle this?

Thanks,
Angelo

You probably meant to write
vproc_max = min(proc_max_volt, opp_vproc_max);
vsram_max = min(sram_max_volt, vsram_vreg_max);

right?

Apparently, some of my braincells was apparently taking a break. :-)

Yes, I was meaning min(), not max() :-)

Hi Daniel, Angelo Sir,

Thanks for the issue report and suggestions.

Is it possible to modify the value of proc_max_volt and sram_max_volt
to 1310000 in mt7622_platform_data as the highest voltage declared in
mt7622.dtsi and then give it a try?

Sorry, I need someone help to check this on mt7622 since I don't have
mt7622 platform..

Thanks.

Unfortunately also setting proc_max_volt and sram_max_volt to 1310000
doesn't work:
[ 1.983325] cpu cpu0: cpu0: failed to scale up voltage!
[ 1.988621] cpufreq: __target_index: Failed to change cpu frequency: -22
::repeating infinitely::

This is because in mt6380-regulator.c you can see
static const unsigned int ldo_volt_table1[] = {
1400000, 1350000, 1300000, 1250000, 1200000, 1150000, 1100000, 1050000,
};

So 1310000 is not among the supported voltages but mediatek-cpufreq.c
will repeatedly call
regulator_set_voltage(sram_reg, 1310000, 1310000);
which will fail for obvious reasons.

Using 1350000 for proc_max_volt and sram_max_volt like I have suggested
as a simple work-around does work because 1350000 is among the supported
voltages of the MT6380 regulator.

On MT7623 the whole problem is anyway non-existent because there is no
separate sram-supply, hence the tracking algorithm isn't used at all.

Exactly.

For MT7622 platform data, I think it is proper to configure as:
.proc_max_volt = 1310000,
.sram_max_volt = 1350000, // since mt6380_vm_reg ldo only supporting
{..., 1300000, 1350000, 1400000} as you mentioned.

For MT7623 platform data, it is required to add a new one.
.proc_max_volt = 1300000,
.sram_max_volt = 0, // since no sram-supply like you said.

If MT7622 and MT7623 supplied voltage issues can be fixed by above
platform data, feel free to send the fix patch or inform me to do that.

Thanks for your help! :)

Note that:

Actually, proc and sram of MT7623 are supplied by one power rail so
that to add sram-supply in dts or assign sram_max_volt = 1300000 in
driver are NOT necessary.

Unfortunately that also doesn't work. The tracking algorithm then
apparently still tries to set unsupported voltages, I assume that
your suggestion will result in SRAM voltage being requested as
1310000uV (proc_max_volt) + 200000uV (max_step_size) = 1330000uV
which also isn't supported by the regulator.

[ 1.972654] cpu cpu0: cpu0: failed to scale up voltage!
[ 1.977951] cpufreq: __target_index: Failed to change cpu frequency: -22
[ 1.984776] cpu cpu0: cpu0: failed to scale up voltage!
[ 1.990039] cpufreq: __target_index: Failed to change cpu frequency: -22
...

With my initial suggestion to set both, proc_max_volt and sram_max_volt
to 1350000 it does work.

However, I think we are now botching around with work-arounds not
addressing the underlying problems which are that
a) the tracking algorithm initially tries to raise the SRAM voltage to
be **exactly** the minimum of proc_max_volt + max_step_size or
sram_max_volt.
b) requesting an exact voltage, ie. regulator_set_voltage(reg, X, X),
is always problematic in case of regulators only supporting a
limited set of supported voltages.

While adjusting the voltages in the SoC's platform data as a
work-around may be good enough as a hot-fix for now, imho the best
would be to re-write the tracking algorithm addressing both of the
above flaws.

I've introduced dedicated platform_data for MT7623 setting
proc_max_volt to 1300000, and yes, that does work.
However, on MT7623 there has not been any problem before as well.

Yes, there will be a short-term, i.e. hot-fix, solution for now, and a
long-term solution to handle the potential risk while cpufreq trying to
set any voltage which is not valid or available on regulator.

The platform data of MT7622 is required to fix anyway.
Actually I would not expect the difference of results by setting
platform data as [2] or [3].

[1]:
.proc_max_volt = 1360000,
.sram_max_volt = 1360000,

[2]:
.proc_max_volt = 1350000,
.sram_max_volt = 1350000,

[3]:
.proc_max_volt = 1310000,
.sram_max_volt = 1350000,

Since SRAM request will be 1310000 + 200000 = 1510000, and then be
clamped between min volt of 0 and max volt of 1350000. Eventually,
'new_vsram' will be assigned to 1350000 in the case [3], before do-
while tracking.

Furthermore, I've tried to use an easy simulator to verify the function
of mtk_cpufreq_voltage_tracking by iterating all possibilities of
voltage transitions.

The simulator results of [1] is failed as expected, but [2] and [3] are
pass!
The test code and test results are available in attachments, feel free
to check them.

If I'm getting wrong, please let me know.. Thanks!

Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: mediatek: correct voltages for MT7622 and MT7623

The MT6380 regulator typically used together with MT7622 does not
support the current maximum processor and SRAM voltage in the cpufreq
driver (1360000uV).
For MT7622 limit processor and SRAM supply voltages to 1350000uV to
avoid having the tracking algorithm request unsupported voltages from
the regulator.

On MT7623 there is no separate SRAM supply and the maximum voltage used
is 1300000uV. Create dedicated platform data for MT7623 to cover that
case as well.

Fixes: 0883426fd07e3 ("cpufreq: mediatek: Raise proc and sram max voltage for MT7622/7623")
