* [PATCH 0/6] pwm: sun4i: only wait 2 cycles prior to disabling

As Emil Lenngren has previously shown [1], actually only 1-2 cycles of
the prescaler-divided clock are necessary to pass before the PWM turns
off, not a full period.

To avoid having the PWM re-enabled from another thread while asleep,
ctrl_lock spinlock was converted to a mutex so that it can be released
only after the clock gate has finally been turned on.

Roman Beranek (6):
  pwm: sun4i: enable clk prior to getting its rate
  pwm: sun4i: disable EN bit prior to the delay
  pwm: sun4i: replace spinlock with a mutex
  pwm: sun4i: simplify calculation of the delay time
  pwm: sun4i: shorten the delay to 2 cycles
  pwm: sun4i: don't delay if the PWM is already off

Ensure the PWM clock is enabled prior to retrieving its rate, as is
already being done in sun4i_pwm_apply.

The reason why we wait before gating the clock is to allow for the PWM
to finish its cycle and stop. But it won't stop unless the EN bit is
disabled.

Releasing ctrl_lock for the duration of the delay is not desirable as it
allows re-enabling the PWM before the delay is over. Instead, substitute
the spinlock with a mutex so that we can sleep while holding it.

* [PATCH 4/6] pwm: sun4i: simplify calculation of the delay time

There's no reason to expect a single jiffy has passed since writing
the CTRL register except if a preemption has occured in the meantime.
Avoid introducing unnecessary complexity and simply wait for the whole
period.

There's no reason to expect a single jiffy has passed since writing
the CTRL register except if a preemption has occured in the meantime.
Avoid introducing unnecessary complexity and simply wait for the whole
period.

* [PATCH 5/6] pwm: sun4i: shorten the delay to 2 cycles

As Emil Lenngren has previously shown, actually only 1-2 cycles of
the prescaler-divided clock are necessary to pass before the PWM turns
off (instead of a full period). I was able to reproduce his observation
on a A64 using a logic analyzer.

Hi Roman,

Thanks for your attempt to fix this.

Unfortunately on my A10 device (Topwise A721), the controller still gets
stuck in an unrecoverable state after disabling and re-enabling the PWM
when it was already on (set in U-Boot), or when enabling it when it was
off. In this state, any changes to the period register (using devmem)
don't seem to have any effect. It seems to be stuck in the state it was
before disabling. The only thing which still works is enabling and
disabling.

I can't reproduce this behavior manually so I'm not sure what is causing
this.

Regarding the amount of cycles of sleep; Using a prescaler of 72000 the
PWM clock is 3 ms. Although timing tests using devmem seem unreliable
(too much overhead?), in U-Boot I need to 'sleep' for at least 7 ms
between the commands to make sure the output doesn't sometimes get stuck
in the enabled state. So in my case it seems to be at least 3 cycles. I
am not sure how reliable this method is. However even if I can get it
stuck in the enabled state using a shorter time, it doesn't cause the
behavior I mentioned before. I was always able to recover it manually.
Increasing the number of cycles to sleep therefore also doesn't solve my
problem. Until we can solve that I cannot confirm nor deny if 2 cycles
is enough.

Regards,
Pascal

You could look at the devmem source code, and in C write a script that
writes to pwm register to disable the pwm, insert a usleep, then
disable the gating. This can be done for various sleep values, then
retrying with same sleep value multiple times. Assuming the overhead
is low (you can check the overhead by checking the current timestamp
at the beginning and at the end of the program, take the diff and then
subtract the sleep time), you will get one range where it never works,
one range where it works sometimes, and one range where it always
works. The uncertain range's condition for succeeding will depend on
when in the cycle you run the code.
Assuming we believe 3 cycles are enough on A10 and prescaler is 72000,
the thresholds for these ranges are 0-6 ms, 6-9 ms and 9+ ms.

About "being stuck", I'm not sure exactly what you mean but it's
expected that writes to the period register won't be visible (if you
read it after a write) when the clock gating is disabled. Three full
cycles (with the gating is on) must take place before the change is
visible (i.e. need to wait four cycles to be sure). At least on >=A13.
I documented that here:
https://linux-sunxi.org/PWM_Controller_Register_Guide.

You could look at the devmem source code, and in C write a script that
writes to pwm register to disable the pwm, insert a usleep, then
disable the gating. This can be done for various sleep values, then
retrying with same sleep value multiple times. Assuming the overhead
is low (you can check the overhead by checking the current timestamp
at the beginning and at the end of the program, take the diff and then
subtract the sleep time), you will get one range where it never works,
one range where it works sometimes, and one range where it always
works. The uncertain range's condition for succeeding will depend on
when in the cycle you run the code.
Assuming we believe 3 cycles are enough on A10 and prescaler is 72000,
the thresholds for these ranges are 0-6 ms, 6-9 ms and 9+ ms.

About "being stuck", I'm not sure exactly what you mean but it's
expected that writes to the period register won't be visible (if you
read it after a write) when the clock gating is disabled. Three full
cycles (with the gating is on) must take place before the change is
visible (i.e. need to wait four cycles to be sure). At least on >=A13.
I documented that here:
https://linux-sunxi.org/PWM_Controller_Register_Guide.

Thank you I will give this a shot if there is still an uncertainty about
the cycles in the end. I performed my tests with a Busybox rootfs, so I
assumed the overhead was low as well.

By being stuck, I mean being in an state from which it can't recover.
The controller will keep outputting seemingly the same signal regardless
what you write to the period register. You can read the values back, but
they aren't effecting the output anymore. No matter in what order or
with what delay I try to re-enable and disable the gate or enable bit,
it'll keep outputting the same signal until you reset the device.

If the clock is off, does the PWM actually run? Assuming it doesn't the
right thing to do is to ensure the clock is enabled in .probe iff the
PWM is enabled.

Catching the case !state->enabled even earlier would make sense.
Otherwise you might see a needless glitch after

	pwm_apply_state(mypwm, { .period = A, .duty_cycle = B, .enabled = true });
	pwm_apply_state(mypwm, { .period = C, .duty_cycle = D, .enabled = false });

which might make C+D visible on the PWM before disabling.

So the comment

is wrong?

Turns out, what I'm referring to here is actually a different issue not
related to this patch series. A different series might be sent later to
address that. 

So no objections from my side for this one.

Turns out, what I'm referring to here is actually a different issue not
related to this patch series. A different series might be sent later to
address that. 

So no objections from my side for this one.

Btw, this now leaves the gate open if the controller is currently
disabled and we are only changing the period register and staying
disabled. This becomes an issue because we always expect the gate to be
disabled when the controller is disabled.
