[RFC PATCH 0/2] Fix rockchip IOMMU driver vs PM issues

[RFC PATCH 0/2] Fix rockchip IOMMU driver vs PM issues

[Tomasz Figa]

On Rockchip SoCs, the IOMMUs are located inside the same power domains as
IP blocks using them. This means that as soon as we runtime suspend such
IP block, causing the power domain to be powered off, the IOMMU would also
be powered off, losing all its state.

This means that whenever the power domain is being powered off, the IOMMU
driver needs to be able to deinitialize the hardware and whenever the domain
is being powered on, it needs to restore all the state, so the consumer
device is able to perform memory transactions.

The solution proposed here revives the idea of PM domain notifiers submitted
originally by Samsung's Sylwester Nawrocki and Marek Szyprowski in [1].
The main benefit of this idea that it is very simple, adding just 84 lines
of code, but effective and also useful for other purposes, what can be seen
in thread [2] and [3]. Moreover, it lets us avoid adding device specific
code (in this case specific to single IOMMU type) to power domain drivers,
which can be used for more devices than just IOMMU and which may vary
between platforms using the same IOMMU driver.

The IOMMU-specific part of the solution simply uses the pre-power-off and
post-power-on notifications to do the necessary setup without the need
of any action from inside drivers of devices behind the IOMMU, so all the
code specific to this particular IOMMU type stays outside other drivers
that should not rely on being run with a particular type of IOMMU (and
often even SoC).

Tested with a custom board based on RK3288 SoC.

[RFC PATCH 1/2] pm: Add PM domain notifications

[Tomasz Figa]

From: Sylwester Nawrocki <s.nawrocki@samsung.com>

This patch adds notifiers to the runtime PM/genpd subsystem. It is now
possible to register a notifier, which will be called before and after
the generic power domain subsystem calls the power domain's power_on
and power_off callbacks.

[RFC PATCH 2/2] iommu: rockchip: Handle system-wide and runtime PM

[Tomasz Figa]

This patch modifies the rockchip-iommu driver to consider state of
the power domain the IOMMU is located in. When the power domain
is powered off, the IOMMU cannot be accessed and register programming
must be deferred until the power domain becomes enabled.

The solution implemented in this patch uses power domain notifications
to perform necessary IOMMU initialization. Race with runtime PM core
is avoided by protecting code accessing the hardware, including startup
and shutdown functions, with a spinlock with a check for power state
inside.

Not sure if you've noticed it, I posted an updated version of this patch
recently [1]. The notifiers list is moved to struct generic_pm_domain
there and it also allows to register a notifier for selected power domain
by name.

Ah, haven't noticed, sorry. The API using devices looks the same, so I
guess we can simply have patch 2/2 of this series applied on top of
your patch.

By the way, look-up by name (presumably hardcoded somewhere?) sounds a
bit strange to me. What was the reason for it to be added?

Best regards,
Tomasz

Doesn't the runtime PM status reflect the value of "is_powered", thus
why do you need to have a copy of it? Could it perpahps be that you
try to cope with the case when CONFIG_PM is unset?

It's worth noting that this driver fully relies on status of other
devices in the power domain the IOMMU is in and does not enforce the
status on its own. So in general, as far as my understanding of PM
runtime subsystem, the status of the IOMMU device will be always
suspended, because nobody will call pm_runtime_get() on it (except the
get and put pair in probe). So is_powered is here to track status of
the domain, not the device. Feel free to suggest a better way, though.

Yes, that should work.

Yes, that might not be a very elegant approach. We initially used it
to implement power domain on/off sequence per specific domain and SoC,
since it appeared resistant to generalize.  I.e. the control register
write sequences are different per domain and per SoC (exynos).
So we named the domains in the device tree in that way:

	pm_domains: pm-domains at 10024000 {
		compatible = "samsung,exynos4415-pd";
		reg-names = "cam", "tv", "mfc", "g3d",
		            "lcd0", "isp0", "isp1";
		reg = <0x10024000 0x20>, <0x10024020 0x20>,
		      <0x10024040 0x20>, <0x10024060 0x20>,
		      <0x10024080 0x20>, <0x100240A0 0x20>,
		      <0x100240E0 0x20>;
		#power-domain-cells = <1>;
	};

and then, for example, in the exynos CMU_ISP{0, 1} (clock controller)
driver registered for notification on "isp0" and "isp1" power domains
("isp1" is a sub-domain of "isp0" and the consumer devices are normally
attached to "isp1").

We have been investigating if we could do without the notification
at the clocks driver side, then the all SoC/power domain specific code
would end up in the exynos power domain driver. But I'm afraid it's
not going to work for all SoCs. Anyway lookup by name might be not
needed.

Regarding "lookup by name", let's please move away from those APIs. I
am planning to remove all name based API from the genpd API as soon as
I can.

If you need to fetch domains, this might help you:

I still don't like these notifiers.  I think they add ways to bypass
having proper runtime PM implemented for devices/subsystems.

>From a high-level, the IOMMU is just another device inside the PM
domain, so ideally it should be doing it's own _get() and _put() calls

notifiers.

No knowing a lot about the IOMMU API, I'm guessing the reason you're not
doing that is because the IOMMU API currently doesn't have an easy way
to keep track of *active* users so it's not obvious where to put those
_get and _put calls.  If that doesn't exist, perhaps a simple
iommu_get() and iommu_put() API needs to be introduced (which inside the
IOMMU core would just do runtime PM calls) so that users of the IOMMU
could inform the subsystem that the IOMMU is needed and it should not be
powered off.

I Cc'd Laurent because I know he's thought about this before from the
IOMMU side, and not sure if he came up with a solution.

I do agree, but I haven't found another good solution to the problem.

As I understand it, the IOMMU (or for other similar cases) shouldn't
be doing any get() and put() at all because there are no IO API to
serve request from.

In principle we could consider these kind devices as "parent" devices
to those other devices that needs them. Then runtime PM core would
take care of things for us, right!?

Now, I am not so sure using the "parent" approach is actually viable,
since it will likely have other complications, but I haven't
thoroughly thought it though yet.

For the record, I'm not liking this mostly because it "fixes" a generic problem
in a way that's hidden in the genpd code and very indirect.

That actually need not be a "parent".

What's needed in this case is to do a pm_runtime_get_sync() on a device
depended on every time a dependent device is runtime-resumed (and analogously
for suspending).

The core doesn't have a way to do that, but it looks like we'll need to add
it anyway for various reasons (ACPI _DEP is one of them as I mentioned some
time ago, but people dismissed it basically as not their problem).

Well, that's true. This is indeed a generic problem of PM dependencies
between devices (other than those represented by parent-child
relation), which in fact doesn't have much to do with genpd, but
rather with those devices directly. It is just that genpd is the most
convenient location to solve this in current code and in a simple way.
In other words, I see this solution as a reasonable way to get the
problem solved quickly for now, so that we can start thinking about a
more elegant solution.

Let me show you our exact use case.

We have a power domain, which contains an IOMMU and an IP block, which
can do bus transactions through that IOMMU. Of course the IP block is
not aware of the IOMMU, because this is just an integration detail and
on other platforms using the same IP block the IOMMU might not be
there. This implies that the driver for this IP block should not be
aware of the IOMMU either, which, on the buffer allocation and mapping
side, is achieved by DMA mapping subsystem. We would also want the
IOMMU to be fully transparent to that driver on PM side.

Now, for PM related details, they are located in the same power
domain, which means that whenever the power domain is turned off, the
CPU can't access their registers and all the hardware state is gone.
To make the case more interesting, there is no point in programming
the IOMMU unless the device using it is powered on. Similarly, there
is no point in powering the domain on to just access the IOMMU. This
implies that the power domain should be fully controlled by the
stand-alone IP block, while the peripheral IOMMU shouldn't affect its
state and its driver only respond to operations performed by driver of
that stand-alone IP block.

A solution like below could work for the above:

- There is a per-device list of peripheral devices, which need to be
powered on for this device to work.
- Whenever the IOMMU subsystem/driver binds an IOMMU to a device, it
adds the IOMMU device to the list of peripheral devices of that device
(and similarly for removal).
- A runtime PM operation on a device will also perform the same
operation on all its peripheral devices.

Another way would be to extend what the PM runtime core does with
parent-child relations to handle the whole list of peripheral devices
instead of just the parent.

Would this design sound somehow reasonable to you?

Tomasz

An even more exciting problem exists when a CPU is in the same domain as
other peripherals, those peripherals are all idle and the power domain
is gated. :)

Which implies that the IOMMU driver should have it's own set of
runtime_suspend/runtime_resume callbacks to properly save/restore state
as well.

Yes, that is exactly what we need.

I'd rather use the term "dependent" devices rather than peripheral
devices, but otherwise it sounds like the right approach to me.

Speaking purely from an IOMMU point of view that's not entirely tree. IOMMU 
drivers expose map and unmap operations, so they can track whether any memory 
is mapped. From a bus master point of view the IOMMU map and unmap operations 
are hidden by the DMA mapping API. The IOMMU can thus track the existence of 
mappings without any IOMMU awareness in the bus master driver.

If no mapping exist the IOMMU shouldn't receive any translation request. An 
IOMMU driver could thus call pm_runtime_get_sync() in the map handler when 
creating the first mapping, and pm_runtime_put() in the unmap handler when 
tearing the last mapping down.

One could argue that the IOMMU would end up being powered more often than 
strictly needed, as bus masters drivers, even when written properly, could 
keep mappings around at times they don't perform bus access. This is true, and 
that's an argument I've raised during the last kernel summit. The general 
response (including Linus Torvald's) was that micro-optimizing power 
management might not be worth it, and that measurements proving that the gain 
is worth it are required before introducing new APIs to solve the problem. I 
can't disagree with that argument.

Definitely an exciting problem. :)

Although I think it's quite opposite to ours, because the kernel knows
when the CPU is online and can simply get() the CPU device from one of
the running CPUs when onlining it and put() when offlining. The same
can't be said about IOMMUs, which are essentially bus interfaces for
other IP blocks, not really standalone devices (more than being
standalone IPs).

Yes, but someone needs to be calling them. Right now when genpd is
used, put()ting the last runtime active device in a domain will
trigger domain power off and calling .suspend() callbacks, but
.resume() callback of each device will be called only on first get()
of this device. This means that get()ting e.g. an video codec device
will not cause the IOMMU's .resume() callback to be called.

I will leave the terminology to you and other people. I'm not good at

This would be a micro optimization if the IOMMU was located in its own
power domain. Unfortunately in most cases it is not, so keeping all
the devices in the domain powered on, because one of them have a
mapping created doesn't sound like a good idea.

Moreover, most of the drivers will keep the mapping for much longer
than one run cycle. Please take a look at V4L2's videobuf2 subsystem
(which I guess you are more familiar with than me;)), which will keep
MMAP buffers mapped in IOMMU address space for their whole lifetime. I
believe similar is the case for DRM drivers.

Exactly.  

And I think to solve this problem, we need to generalize the attaching
of dependent devices to a PM domain.

Yes, but that doesn't mean it gets out of control. Buffers shouldn't be 
allocated if they won't be used. Granted, they could be preallocated (or 
rather premapped) slightly before being used, but in sane use cases that 
shouldn't be long before the hardware needs to be turned on.

Assuming that we don't have a third party, called "user", involved.

A simple use case is video playback pause. Usually all the software
state (including output buffers that can be used as reference for
decoding next frames) needs to be preserved to continue decoding after
resume, but it would be nice to power off the decoder, if it is unused
for some period. In addition, we would like the pause/resume operation
to be fast, so unmapping/freeing buffers and then exactly the opposite
on resume doesn't sound like a good idea.

OK, then we have one possible use case. I expect people to still want to see 
power consumption numbers though.

You can call me annoying, but I'm not sure whether a generic PM dependency 
implementation, while it could be a good idea in general, is the best solution 
here, especially if the bus master and the IOMMU are in a different power 
domain. The bus master could provide functions that don't require DMA access. 
For instance a camera controller could feed its output to the display 
directly, without going through memory. In that case we probably don't want to 
power the IOMMU and its complete power domain on when using the camera 
controller in that mode.

One alternative solution would be to extend the DMA mapping API with two 
functions to signal that DMA is about to be started and that DMA has now 
finished. It might be considered too ad-hoc though.

Well, we have them, kind of.

In the ACPI world there's something called _DEP which gives us a list of devices
depended on by the given one.  Those may be devices whose drivers provide so
called "operation region" handling which means that an ACPI method executed for
the dependent device may access a device it depends on indirectly.  Because of
that indirection we basically need the devices listed by _DEP to be "on" whenever
the dependent device is "on" or things may break in nasty ways otherwise.

Now, on (some) Intel SoCs some devices listed by _DEP cannot be "on" all the
time, because the lowest-power states of the whole SoC cannot be used then,
which makes hours of battery life of a difference.

This isn't exactly the same problem, but it maps to the IOMMU one quite well IMO.

That's a fair point, but it really boils down to energy usage numbers again.

It would be better to be able to reference count the DMA engine from the
bus master IMO and arguably you can use the runtime PM framework for that.
Namely, give bus masters someting like

	pm_runtime_get_my_DMA_engine(bus_master_device)
	pm_runtime_put_my_DMA_engine(bus_master_device)

and let them call these as they see fit.

Agreed, that's certainly a use case for a power dependency implementation.

Please note that we're not talking about DMA engines here, but about IOMMUs. 
DMA is involved through the DMA mapping API which hides the IOMMU completely 
from the bus master drivers, not the DMA engine API.

Exposing the IOMMU is something we want to avoid, but DMA mapping start/stop 
operations could certainly be implemented.

The problem with that is it only solves the IOMMU problem.  We have a
more generic PM dependency problem of which this IOMMU example is only a
subset, so I think we need a more generic solution.

I agree that a more generic solution is needed at least to support ACPI _DEP, 
but that might not be optimal in the IOMMU use case as explained above.

Well, since we need it anyway, why don't we implement it and then figure out
if anything more specific needs to be done for the IOMMU case?
