[RFC PATCH 0/2] PM / devfreq: Add delayed timer for polling

[Chanwoo Choi]

Add the delayed timer to devfreq framework in order to support
the periodical polling mode without stop caused by CPU idle state.
Some Non-CPU device must need to monitor the device status like
utilization regardless of CPU state.

- patch1 explains the detailed reason why the delayed timer is required.
- patch2 initializes that exynos5422-dmc device use delayed timer as default
instead of deferrable timer.

[RFC PATCH 1/2] PM / devfreq: Add support delayed timer for polling mode

[Chanwoo Choi]

Until now, the devfreq driver using polling mode like simple_ondemand
governor have used only deferrable timer for reduing the redundant
power consumption. It reduces the CPU wake-up from idle due to polling mode
which check the status of Non-CPU device.

But, it has a problem for Non-CPU device like DMC device with DMA operation.
Some Non-CPU device need to do monitor continously regardless of CPU state
in order to decide the proper next status of Non-CPU device.

So, add support the dealyed timer for polling mode to support
the periodical monitoring. The devfreq driver and user can select
the kind of timer on either deferrable and delayed timer.

For example, change the timer type of DMC device
based on Exynos5422-based Odroid-XU3 as following:

- If want to use deferrable timer as following:
echo deferrable > /sys/class/devfreq/10c20000.memory-controller/timer

- If want to use delayed timer as following:
echo delayed > /sys/class/devfreq/10c20000.memory-controller/timer

If you want to take this through devfreq tree, I'm fine:

Otherwise I could grab it through samsung-soc after devfreq change ends
in mainline.

Re: [RFC PATCH 0/2] PM / devfreq: Add delayed timer for polling

[Willy Wolff]

Hi Chanwoo,

I think it doesn't help on the benchmark I suggested that is doing only memory
accesses. With both timer, I have the same timing.

To test the benchmark with these new patches about timer:

git clone https://github.com/wwilly/benchmark.git \
  && cd benchmark \
  && source env.sh \
  && ./bench_build.sh \
  && bash source/scripts/test_dvfs_mem_patched.sh

The benchmark is set by default to run for 1s, but you can increase this by
tweaking the script as:

taskset 8 ./bench_install/bin/microbe_cache 33554431 0 9722222 <TIME in sec> ${little_freq}


Also, as I reported the issue, would it be possible to add a
Reported-by: Willy Wolff <willy.mh.wolff.ml@gmail.com> ?
Many thanks in advance.

Thank you for your good work and the benchmark. I hope you will continue
to use it and report some issues. I am going to send a follow up patches
for the DMC and I will add your 'Reported-by'. In the tests I can see
the improvements, but it's worth to consult with you if I understand
the new results correctly.

I think there is still some area for improvements in the devfreq and you
could find the interesting bits to contribute.

Thanks for that. I will follow on the other patch thread discussion.

In fact, this benchmark is motivated about part of my PhD research that has just
been accepted at LCTES2020: "Performance Optimization on big.LITTLE Architectures:
A Memory-latency Aware Approach" at https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3372799.3394370

Basically, it's about snooping latency with "bad" CPU DVFS choice on big.LITTLE
systems or more generally SMP/AMP architecture. I'm cleaning up my code and will
propose patches as an RFC later. It introduces a new CPU DVFS governor to limit
snooping latency.

Willy

Thank you, this patchset looks fine to me and is a step in the right
direction:

Reviewed-by: Bartlomiej Zolnierkiewicz <b.zolnierkie@samsung.com>

> Some Non-CPU device must need to monitor the device status like
> utilization regardless of CPU state.

This is probably true for all devfreq devices using simple_ondemand
governor by default:

drivers/devfreq/exynos-bus.c
drivers/devfreq/rk3399_dmc.c
drivers/devfreq/tegra20-devfreq.c
drivers/gpu/drm/lima/lima_devfreq.c
drivers/gpu/drm/msm/msm_gpu.c
drivers/gpu/drm/panfrost/panfrost_devfreq.c
drivers/memory/samsung/exynos5422-dmc.c
drivers/scsi/ufs/ufshcd.c

With devfreq device polling being "coupled" to CPU idle state
the devfreq subsystem behavior is completely unpredictable and
unreliable.

It affects both performance (device opp change up happening too
late) and power consumption (device opp change down happening too
late).

It also causes hardware usage counters support to report too high
values (because of CPU idle "coupling" the real polling period
becomes larger than maximum period supported by the counter and
the counter becomes fully "saturated") which negatively affects
power consumption (as has been observed when using Odroid XU3/4).

[ The only upside of using such "coupling" is lowered CPU power
  usage (in some situations) but at the (unacceptable IMHO) cost
  of the correctness of operations of devfreq subsystem. ]

Unfortunately this patchset currently fixes only exynos5422-dmc
devfreq driver. To fix problems for Exynos platforms we need to
also fix exynos-bus devfreq driver.

My apologizes for being late for the party. I wasn't able to run tests
and I had to fix my setup after I messed up some scripts.

The patch set looks good to me, so you can add my (to both patches):
