This patch adds interconnect functionality to the exynos-bus devfreq
driver.
The SoC topology is a graph (or, more specifically, a tree) and most of its
edges are taken from the devfreq parent-child hierarchy (cf.
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/devfreq/exynos-bus.txt). The previous
patch adds missing edges to the DT (under the name 'parent'). Due to
unspecified relative probing order, -EPROBE_DEFER may be propagated to
guarantee that a child is probed before its parent.
Each bus is now an interconnect provider and an interconnect node as well
(cf. Documentation/interconnect/interconnect.rst), i.e. every bus registers
itself as a node. Node IDs are not hardcoded but rather assigned at
runtime, in probing order (subject to the above-mentioned exception
regarding relative order). This approach allows for using this driver with
various Exynos SoCs.
The devfreq target() callback provided by exynos-bus now selects either the
frequency calculated by the devfreq governor or the frequency requested via
the interconnect API for the given node, whichever is higher.
Please note that it is not an error when CONFIG_INTERCONNECT is 'n', in
which case all interconnect API functions are no-op.

Do not refer to DT patches. They will come through different tree so
"previous" will not be correct anymore. You mentioned dependencies in
cover letter so it is sufficient.

What if someone unbinds this parent devfreq? I guess everything in
devfreq starts exploding... however it's not the problem of this patch.
Do you also need suspend/resume order (device links)? I guess the other
side, e.g. mixer, should resume before the bus?

You will return here 0 but isn't it an error?

I am not familiar with the Exynos bus topology, but it seems to me that it's not
represented correctly. An interconnect provider with just a single node (port)
is odd. I would expect that each provider consists of multiple master and slave
nodes. This data would be used by a framework to understand what are the links
and how the traffic flows between the IP blocks and through which buses.

This completely makes sense. We just need to be sure that the interconnect
framework is used correctly.
Thanks,

Actually, I think that the bus (devfreq) should resume before mixer. However,
suspend/resume order is another issue that applies to this driver regardless of
using the interconnect framework, although device links could probably also be
implemented in the interconnect framework itself.

It is definitely not an error when 'parent' does not exist in DT (for buses that
are parents themselves). I can extend the comment in the code to explicitly
state that.

To summarize the exynos-bus topology[1] used by the devfreq driver: There are
many data buses for data transfer in Samsung Exynos SoC. Every bus has its own
clock. Buses often share power lines, in which case one of the buses on the
power line is referred to as 'parent' (or as 'devfreq' in the DT). In the
particular case of Exynos4412[1][2], the topology can be expressed as follows:
bus_dmc
-- bus_acp
-- bus_c2c
bus_leftbus
-- bus_rightbus
-- bus_display
-- bus_fsys
-- bus_peri
-- bus_mfc
Where bus_dmc and bus_leftbus probably could be referred to as masters, and the
following indented nodes as slaves. Patch 08/11 of this RFC additionally adds
the following to the DT:
bus_dmc
-- bus_leftbus
Which makes the topology a valid tree.
The exynos-bus concept in devfreq[3] is designed in such a way that every bus is
probed separately as a platform device, and is a largely independent entity.
This RFC proposes an extension to the existing devfreq driver that basically
provides a simple QoS to ensure minimum clock frequency for selected buses
(possibly overriding devfreq governor calculations) using the interconnect
framework.
The hierarchy is modelled in such a way that every bus is an interconnect node.
On the other hand, what is considered an interconnect provider here is quite
arbitrary, but for the reasons mentioned in the above paragraph, this RFC
assumes that every bus is a provider of itself as a node. Using an alternative
singleton provider approach was deemed more complicated since the 'dev' field in
'struct icc_provider' has to be set to something meaningful and we are tied to
the 'samsung,exynos-bus' compatible string in the driver (and multiple instances
of exynos-bus probed in indeterminate relative order).
I'm looking forward to hearing any additional thoughts you may have on this
topic.
Best regards,

The only current provider aggregates "avg" with "sum" and "peak" with
"max", any particular reason to do something different? This function
doesn't even really do aggregation, if there is a second request for "0"
then the first request is lost.
I didn't find any docs but my interpretation of avg/peak is that "avg"
is for constant traffic like a display or VPU pushing pixels and "peak"
is for variable traffic like networking. I assume devices which make
"peak" requests are aggregated with max because they're not expected to
all max-out together.
In PATCH 11 you're making a bandwidth request based on resolution, that
traffic is constant and guaranteed to happend while the display is on so
it would make sense to request it as an "avg" and aggregate it with "sum".

IIUC, in case we want to transfer data between the display and the memory
controller, the path would look like this:
display --> bus_display --> bus_leftbus --> bus_dmc --> memory
But the bus_display for example would have not one, but two nodes (ports),
right? One representing the link to the display controller and another one
representing the link to bus_leftbus? So i think that all the buses should
have at least two nodes, to represent each end of the wire.

Hi,
Thank you for your remarks. I will take them into account while preparing RFCv2.

Yes, you're right. I adopted an oversimplified solution for the purpose of this
RFC (please bear in mind that currently only one icc_path is used, so there is
no aggregation anyway).

That's correct (according to my understanding).

I do not think we really need that for our simple tree hierarchy. Of course, I
can split every tree node into two nodes/ports (e.g., 'in' for children and
'out' for parent), but neither 'display' nor 'memory' from your diagram above
are registered with the interconnect framework (only buses are). The devfreq
devices used in the driver are virtual anyway.

I think that applying the interconnect min_freq via dev_pm_qos can help
with many of these concerns: update_devfreq controls all the min/max
handling, sysfs is accurate and better decisions can be made regarding
thermal. Enforcing constraints in the core is definitely better.
This wouldn't even be a very big change, you don't need to actually move
the interconnect code outside of devfreq. Just make every devfreq/icc
node register a dev_pm_qos_request for itself during registration and
call dev_pm_qos_update_request inside exynos_bus_icc_set.
See: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11084279/

Hi,
We need to discuss how to change or do refactoring on v2.
Actually, I don't know the your opinion and how to do it on v2.
You have to reply the answer and then after finished the discussion,
I recommend that you would rework and resend the v2 patches.

I agree this approach of Leonard. If we use the dev_pm_qos[1] feature,
it resolve the issue of my comment1/2.
In summary, when receive the minimum frequency requirement
from interconnect path, the each bus uses the dev_pm_qos interface
in order to inform the minimum frequency from interconnect to devfreq.
And then the devfreq core will execute the update_devfreq()
with all frequency requirements as following:
- the user input (min/max frequency though devfreq sysfs
- the target frequency provided by devfreq governor
- the minimum frequency from interconnect path
