Subject: [PATCH v5 3/3] clocksource: timer-riscv: Set CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP based on DT

We should set CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP for a clock_event_device only
when riscv,timer-cannot-wake-cpu DT property is present in the RISC-V
timer DT node.

This way CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP feature is set for clock_event_device
based on RISC-V platform capabilities rather than having it set for
all RISC-V platforms.

A platform that depended on CLOCK_EVT_FEAT_C3STOP being set will break
with this change because its existing DT will not have the new property.

It needs to be the other way around which would effectively be the
existing 'always-on' property.

There are no RISC-V platforms using C3STOP. The patch which
added C3STOP has been reverted.
(Refer, https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/[email protected]/T/)

I just need to rebase this patch upon the C3STOP revert patch.

I guess you could say that the C3STOP addition was done spec-ulatively*,
as the platform that actually exhibits that behaviour does not use the
riscv-timer & its maintainer acked the revert (allwinner d1 family).

*The spec does not make any guarantees about whether events arrive
during suspend, only the behaviour *if* they arrive.

Switching the property to "always-on" would require retrofitting that
property to every other existing platform (and therefore regressing some
behaviour there, no?).

Most of the existing platforms are "toys" or demo platforms though, so
it would not, I guess, be the end of the world to do so. Doubly so since
none of them actually implement any sleep states that making it an
"always-on" property.

I've said since the start that defaulting to C3STOP is the "safer" thing
to do, and although we disagreed on this last time Anup, I think the
better outcome of someone missing a DT property is inaccessible sleep
states rather than going into sleep states they cannot get out of.

For PolarFire SoC, which I guess is one of the few "commerical"
platforms, I'd be willing to accept retrofitting, since we have not yet
implemented such sleep states yet.

Maybe Prabhakar knows whether the RZ/Five has either a) implemented
sleep states and b) which side of the "timer events arrive in suspend"
divide their platform lies on.
I'm particular interested here since that is not a SiFive core complex.

I would like to get DT maintainer approval of an approach here soon-ish
so that we can something sorted for the jh7110 stuff and for the
bouffalolabs SoC - the latter of which may very well be in the "no
events in suspend" camp as it also uses thead stuff.

Sorry for kinda rowing back on my previous acceptance of the approach,
but I am really between two minds on this.

Thanks,
Conor.

For clarity: that doesn't mean the platform will _never_ use the SBI
timer facility, just that Linux happens to not use it right now.

Specifically, only sleep states with a "local-timer-stop" property would
be inhibited by the C3STOP flag, so there is only possibility of a
regression if some DT declaring such a sleep state exists anywhere.

Yeah sorry - should have been a bit clearer there. There's a few other
SoCs about that are using the thead cores, so I'd be "worried" that they
share the timer behaviour but do not have an alternative like you do on
the D1. That's part of what's kinda given me cold feet on the current
approach.

What is the plan for this series? IIRC, a rebase was required on top of
the revert?
I'm not overly pushed either way at this point, I'd like to get this
C3STOP issue sorted out before more thead powered SoCs start showing up
with the same implementation issues.

I know it is the Christmas period so not expecting anything to actually
happen right away.

Thanks,
Conor.
