[PATCH 5/8] ARM: OMAP3: update cpuidle latency and threshold figures

Tue Sep 18 04:52:09 EDT 2012


Update the data from the measurements performed at HW and SW levels.

Cf. http://www.omappedia.org/wiki/Power_Management_Device_Latencies_Measurement
for a detailed explanation on where are the numbers coming from.

ToDo:
- Measure the wake-up latencies for all power domains for OMAP3
- Correct some numbers when sys_clkreq and sys_offmode are supported

  * - target_residency: required amount of time in the C state
  *  to break even on energy cost
+ *
+ * The MPU latency and threshold values for the C-states are the worst case
+ * values from the HW and SW, as described in details at
+ * http://www.omappedia.org/wiki/Power_Management_Device_Latencies_Measurement#cpuidle_results
+ *
+ * Measurements conditions and remarks:
+ *  . the measurements have been performed at OPP50
+ *  . the sys_offmode signal is not supported and so not used for the
+ *    measurements. Instead the latency and threshold values for C9 are
+ *    corrected with the value for Triton 2, which is 11.5ms
+ *  . the sys_clkreq signal is not used and so a correction is needed - TBD
+ *  . the sys_clkoff signal is supported, this value need to be corrected with
+ *    the correct value of SYSCLK on/off timings (1ms for sysclk on, 2.5ms
+ *    for sysclk off)
+ *  . the setup time of DPLLs is included in the measured values. However
+ *    this is only valid for DPLLs that are enabled to auto-idle at
+ *    measurement time. There currently is no provision for the dynamic
+ *    nature of the auto-idle setting
+ *  . in order to force the cpuidle algorithm to chose the power efficient
+ *    C-states (C1, C3, C5, C7) in preference, the other C-states have a
+ *    threshold value equal to the next power efficient C-state
+ *
+ * The latency and threshold values can be overriden by data from the board
+ * files, using omap3_pm_init_cpuidle.
