I recall I made it always-on for display handoff. The bootloader on the laptops will enable the display, which means the MDP is active and using the SMMU. The SMMU is powered by the GDSC as you know. The MDP is going to be polling a framebuffer in DDR, which EFI services (efifb) is going to be updating. All of this is active during linux boot, which is how the kernel bootlog gets printed on screen. If I remember right, the GDSC will be registered. When it is done probing, there will be no consumers. So the Linux framework will step in and turn it off before the consumers come up. This kills power to the SMMU. If the SMMU doesn't come back on before the MDP polls DDR again, you get a bus hang and a crash. I assumed that any msm8998 device would be using the MDP/GPU and thus the SMMU would pretty much always be powered on. I expected this patch to break the laptop. It does not in my testing. However, I see that I disabled the MMCC node in DT with a todo about the display. So the GDSC is never registered, and then never gets turned off. I believe that todo is pending some updates I need to make to the TI DSI/eDP bridge because the I2C port on the bridge is not wired up. I should really dust that off and complete it. Regardless, even with the todo addressed, I think removing always-on will still break the laptops unless the bootloader handoff of display was solved and I missed it. I get that for your usecase, a phone where the bootloader does not init the display, always-on has the potential to burn extra power. I'm not sure how to make both of us happy through.

The SMMU is powered by the GDSC as you know. The MDP is going to be polling a framebuffer in DDR, which EFI services (efifb) is going to be updating. All of this is active during linux boot, which is how the kernel bootlog gets printed on screen. This is essentially a missing / mis-configuration from the linux/dt POV and I think the consensus for using display without describing it properly with mdss has been to do one of: - adding a simple-framebuffer node with all the necessary clocks/pds - adding "clk_ignore_unused pd_ignore_unused" to your cmdline > > If I remember right, the GDSC will be registered.

However, I see that I disabled the MMCC node in DT with a todo about the display. So the GDSC is never registered, and then never gets turned off. I believe that todo is pending some updates I need to make to the TI DSI/eDP bridge because the I2C port on the bridge is not wired up. I should really dust that off and complete it. Right, so what you have now is a third, untold "solution" to the problem described above.. not really a supported configuration as it's not "correct" I'd happily see you wire up the bridge et al though! > Regardless, even with the todo addressed, I think removing always-on will still break the laptops unless the bootloader handoff of display was solved and I missed it. > > I get that for your usecase, a phone where the bootloader does not init the display, always-on has the potential to burn extra power.

I still think there is an issue, but my setup is not as complete as your on mainline. I'll clean things up and we'll solve the issues when we get to them.

The SMMU GDSC doesn't have to be ALWAYS-ON and shouldn't feature the HW_CTRL flag (it's separate from hw_ctrl_addr). In addition to that, it should feature a cxc entry for bimc_smmu_axi_clk and be marked as votable. Fix all of these issues.
