[PATCH 0/6] arm: mvebu: add support for local timer for Armada 370/XP

[PATCH 0/6] arm: mvebu: add support for local timer for Armada 370/XP

[Gregory CLEMENT]

Hello,

The Armada XP SoCs comes with private timers. This allows us to use
local timers through CONFIG_LOCAL_TIMERS and as stated in the kconfig
help, it prevents a "thundering herd" at every timer tick.

Armada 370 also have these private timers, and even if it comes only
with a single CPU, the feature is also enabled for this SoC to keep
the code generic.

In order to be able to use the local timer, I also had to add the
support for the per-CPU interrupts.

As this patch set need to modify several sub-systems, I'd like that
Jason take the whole series with the acked-by of each maintainer.

Jason I also try to create the patch to fit the order you expect
drivers, then boards and finally dt.

The 1st patch which add support for local interrupt should go directly
to the driver branch of Jason.

The 2nd patch which adds local timer support for Armada 370/XP should
received a acked-by John Stultz or Thomas Gleixner before going to the
driver branch of Jason.

For the 3rd patch, which just allow to not select TWD by default when
local timers are selected for Armada 370/XP, it would be nice if
Russell could give his acked-by. I think this patch should go to the
board branch of Jason, but I am not sure.

The 4th patch is an update to the mvebu_defconfig and should go to the
board branch of Jason.

The 5th and 6th patches are about the DT bindings. An acked-by or at
least a reviewed-by from Rob Herring or Grant Likely would be nice
before going ending to the dt branch of Jason.

This patch set is based on 3.8-rc4 and is obviously 3.9 material. The
git branch called local_timer is available at:
https://github.com/MISL-EBU-System-SW/mainline-public.git.

Thanks,

[PATCH 2/6] clocksource: time-armada-370-xp: add local timer support

[Gregory CLEMENT]

On the SOCs Armada 370 and Armada XP, each CPU comes with two private
timers. This patch use the timer 0 of each CPU as local timer for the
clockevent if CONFIG_LOCAL_TIMER is selected. In the other case, use
only the private Timer 0 of CPU 0.

On the SOCs Armada 370 and Armada XP, each CPU comes with two private
timers. This patch use the timer 0 of each CPU as local timer for the
clockevent if CONFIG_LOCAL_TIMER is selected. In the other case, use
only the private Timer 0 of CPU 0.

This works fine, but I would consider it slightly cleaner to kill
the marvell,timer-25Mhz property and instead have separate 
marvell,armada-370-timer and marvell,armada-xp-timer compatible
strings, since the two timers are actually different, rather than wired
differently.

Your change is fine, but I just noticed that this line is asking for trouble
when we enable multipleform support for MSM and/or EXYNOS.

Also, I wonder if we should change this somehow in 3.8, because it seems
that for a multiplatform kernel including armadaxp and e.g. versatile express,
you have no ARM_TWD support in the kernel, which seems wrong. Is there any
reason we can't enable the ARM_TWD code to be built-in on platforms that
don't use it?

Maybe it can be written as

config LOCAL_TIMERS
	bool "Use local timer interrupts"
	depends on SMP
	default y

config HAVE_ARM_TWD
	depends on LOCAL_TIMERS
	default ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM || (!ARCH_MSM_SCORPIONMP && !EXYNOS4_MCT)
	default y

This will still be slightly wrong (generating extra code) on a multiplatform
kernel that has no platform other than MSM or EXYNOS, but the other alternative
would be that each platform with TWD support has to select HAVE_ARM_TWD itself.

Why would having each platform with TWD support select HAVE_ARM_TWD be
a problem?

If we look at it logically, this is the most efficient solution in
terms of brevity of the (already huge) Kconfig.

On multiplatform kernels where at least one arch has TWD support, it
will be included, and where not, it will not.

It doesn't seem logical for a feature descriptor (HAVE_ARM_TWD) to
rely on greater knowledge of what platforms may or may not support it.
If we had to include every platform in that list it would be unwieldy.

Which leads me to this; I wonder if there should be a policy document
that basically describes what HAVE_* really is meant for, and how
dependencies on ARCH_* (or MACH_* in the world of multiplatform)
should be handled for architectural features? That way there's a
little more fixed definition of how Kconfigs should be written to
effectively support multiplatform kernels and allow people to identify
misuses and get rid of them for multiplatform, if only just to get the
information out of the heads of maintainers and into a file somewhere
that we can reference... maybe it exists already but I am missing it?

Not a big one, it's just one more Kconfig line for each of a large number
of platforms in the long run.

I would expect that all future platforms have ARM_TWD, so the list
of the platforms that don't is not going to grow much, but the list
of platforms that do will keep growing.

Documentation is generally considered a good thing, but few people
can be bothered to write it, and few of the other people that should
read it actually do.

To some extent this problem will improve over time for the ARM
multiplatform support as we find all the bugs like this one
and fix them.

Hum, I am not sure they are different. From my point of view it is the same IP,
but the one on Armada XP can use a 25MHz fix source clock. Apart from this,
all the registers are the same. Moreover currently with this property we still have
the possibility to not use the 25MHz clock source on Armada XP which is totally valid.
The use of this source clock is not mandatory for the Armada XP SoCs.

For now I prefer to keep this property.

I don't see a strong reason to not enable it if we don't use it. My concern
was that I don't need it so I didn't want to include it and generating extra
code for nothing. Then just after having sent this patch set, I received your
patch set about build regression in 3.8 and especially the part about
CONFIG_MULTIPLATFORM made me realized that it could be a problem.

So in this case why not written something like this:
 	default ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM || (!ARCH_MSM_SCORPIONMP && !EXYNOS4_MCT && !ARMADA_370_XP_TIMER)

I am not a kconfig expert, but won't this line set HAVE_ARM_TWD to 'y' whatever
the result of the previous line?

IMHO, this is an exception to the rule.
Since the first block is more than one line,
we usually put braces on the single line block too.
(or at least that's what Documentation/CodingStyle says).

You're right!
I would have liked to say I have done it on purpose, but in fact these
braces are here only because during development I had had multiples lines
inside the else.
However, as you pointed it, I will keep it.

You're right!
I would have liked to say I have done it on purpose, but in fact these
braces are here only because during development I had had multiples lines
inside the else.
However, as you pointed it, I will keep it.

That does not change anything, because ARMADA_370_XP_TIMER is only ever enabled
when ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM is enabled as well.

Yes you're right.

So I remove this patch of my series as I don't need it anymore for supporting local
timer on Armada XP/370.

And I will submit this patch as a standalone one.

Actually _that_ is just one of the problems with documentation.  The

1. People don't write documentation.

(2) is about as bad as it gets - because the small percentage of people

Sigh.  No.  Wrong.

config HAVE_ARM_TWD
	depends on LOCAL_TIMERS
	default ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM || (!ARCH_MSM_SCORPIONMP && !EXYNOS4_MCT && !ARMADA_370_XP_TIMER)
	default y

This takes the value of the first enabled default.  The first enabled
default is the first default (it's unconditional).  So, the default y
will never be used.

Given the above, it's far from clear what the actual behaviour being
asked for is - it looks totally and utterly screwed to me - and the
wrong thing to be doing.

If the desire is to have it enabled if ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM is set, then
it's easy, and requires just a _single_ line addition:

 config LOCAL_TIMERS
 	bool "Use local timer interrupts"
 	depends on SMP
 	default y
 	select HAVE_ARM_TWD if (!ARCH_MSM_SCORPIONMP && !EXYNOS4_MCT)
+	select HAVE_ARM_TWD if ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM

Sigh.  No.  Wrong.

config HAVE_ARM_TWD
	depends on LOCAL_TIMERS
	default ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM || (!ARCH_MSM_SCORPIONMP && !EXYNOS4_MCT && !ARMADA_370_XP_TIMER)
	default y

[PATCH] arm: kconfig: always select TWD with local timer for multiplatform

[Gregory CLEMENT]

When we enable multiplatform and local timers we should not disable
the build of the TWD driver even if there is support for MSM and/or
EXYNOS (those SoCs don't use TWD for their local timers). Indeed most
of the other SoCs will need it.

If multiplatform is not enable we keep the possibility to not add
support for TWD as we only built a kernel for MSM or for EXYNOS.

Right. I actually know how it works, but didn't think through it this
time. The 'default y' was a mistake on my side and should not have
been in there. I was also missing a 'bool' statement in there, which
makes the whole thing a syntax error.

Right. The effect would be the same as what I intended to write:

config LOCAL_TIMERS
        bool "Use local timer interrupts"
        depends on SMP
        default y

config HAVE_ARM_TWD
	def_bool ARCH_MULTIPLATFORM || (!ARCH_MSM_SCORPIONMP && !EXYNOS4_MCT)
        depends on LOCAL_TIMERS

but your patch is simpler.

No, I expect all future platforms will have architected timers. TWD is
pretty much A9 and A5 only I believe. Same with SCU. I've probably
missed some in my list.

Ah, I was incorrectly assuming that TWD was referring to the architected
timers, sorry about that.

Maybe we should do this differently then and do the more logical

config LOCAL_TIMERS
	bool

config ARM_TWD
	bool "ARM TWD local timer"
	depends on SMP && CPU_V7
	select LOCAL_TIMERS

config EXYNOS4_MCT

That way we have no implicit assumptions. Everything will still work if you
disable local timers, but of course we will enable them in the defconfigs.

Ah, I was incorrectly assuming that TWD was referring to the architected
timers, sorry about that.

Maybe we should do this differently then and do the more logical

config LOCAL_TIMERS
	bool

config ARM_TWD
	bool "ARM TWD local timer"
	depends on SMP && CPU_V7
	select LOCAL_TIMERS

config EXYNOS4_MCT
	bool "Samsung Exynos4 MCT Timer"
	depends on SMP && ARCH_EXYNOS
	select LOCAL_TIMERS

config MSM_LOCAL_TIMER
	bool "Qualcomm MSM Local Timer"
	depends on SMP && ARCH_MSM
	select LOCAL_TIMERS

John,

Do you have any comments on this patch before I send a second patch set
to take into account the remarks I got on the other patches ?

Thanks,

John,

Do you have any comments on this patch before I send a second patch set
to take into account the remarks I got on the other patches ?
