Greg's tty-next is not booting on 2420 based N800. The failure is
observed at serial init itself. The reason might be that n800 tries to
resume even though it is not suspended before.

FWIW:

Reviewed-by: Felipe Balbi <balbi@ti.com>

Paul does this fix the issue for you ? Note that it depends on a
previous patch Sourav sent [1]

[1] http://marc.info/?l=linux-omap&m=134796819607889&w=2

There's one thing that gets my attention, though, why only n800 would
fail here ?

I wonder if we should be using:

pm_runtime_set_active(dev);
pm_runtime_get_enable(dev);

to prevent our runtime_resume() to be called from probe, but Sourav
tested and it doesn't work on BeagleBoard, but it works on PandaBoard.

Does it ring any bell ??

Well I guess it's normal resume callback is called during probe as
pm_runtime_get_sync() is called there, and according to documentation
[1], devices are assumed to be suspended before probe is called.

According to [1], pm_runtime_set_active() should be called before
pm_runtime_enable() to indicate to the core that device is active
during probe if that's the case, I guess this means
pm_runtime_get_sync() is not needed in that case, but I'm not sure
what's the actual serial state during probe nowadays.

[1] chapter 5 of Documentation/power/runtime_pm.txt:
The initial runtime PM status of all devices is 'suspended', but it
need not reflect the actual physical state of the device. Thus, if the
device is initially active (i.e. it is able to process I/O), its
runtime PM status must be changed to 'active', with the help of
pm_runtime_set_active(), before pm_runtime_enable() is called for the
device.

this is what I mean, actually. If we remove pm_runtime_get_sync() in
exchange for pm_runtime_set_active() before pm_runtime_enable(), it
works on PandaBoard, but breaks BeagleBoard.

How is this happening?  I think that needs proper investigation - or if
it's had more investigation, then the results needs to be included in
the commit description so that everyone can understand the issue here.

We should not be resuming a device which hasn't been suspended.  Maybe
the runtime PM enable sequence is wrong, and that's what should be fixed
instead?  

This sequence in the probe() function:

        pm_runtime_irq_safe(&pdev->dev);
        pm_runtime_enable(&pdev->dev);
        pm_runtime_get_sync(&pdev->dev);

would enable runtime PM while the s/w state indicates that it's disabled,
and then that pm_runtime_get_sync() will want to resume the device.  See
the section "5. Runtime PM Initialization, Device Probing and Removal"
in Documentation/power/runtime_pm.txt, specifically the second paragraph
of that section.

that was tested. It worked in pandaboard but didn't work on beagleboard
XM. Sourav tried to start a discussion about that, but it simply died...

In any case, pm_runtime_get_sync() in probe will always call
runtime_resume callback, right ?

that's most likely, of course. But should we cause a regression to
beagleboard XM because of that ? Also, if you look into chapter 9 of the
runtime_pm documentation, starting on line 822 you'll see documentation
suggests the use of mystruct->is_suspended flag.

Well, if the runtime PM state says it's suspended, and then you enable
runtime PM, the first call to pm_runtime_get_sync() will trigger a resume
attempt.  The patch description is complaining about resume events without
there being a preceding suspend event.

This could well be why.

What would cause a regression on beagleboard XM?  I have not suggested
any change other than more investigation of the issue and a fuller patch
description - yet you're screaming (idiotically IMHO) that mere
investigation would break beagleboard.

Well, if it's _that_ fragile, that mere investigation of this issue by
someone elsewhere on the planet would break your beagleboard, maybe it
deserves to be broken!

why are you always so over the top like that ? This is just
counter-productive to say the least.

What I'm trying to say here, is that there might be a bug either on pm
core or on OMAP3's implementation and I'd like to get input from Tony,
Santosh, Paul, etc before going forward. Maybe it's something they've
already been through, or maybe it rings a bell and points to somewhere
we should look for.

anyway, instead of feeding your ego, we can stop this discussion and let
Sourav see what he can come up with.

The issue was observed at serial init itself in the N800 board and the
log does not
show up much.
http://www.pwsan.com/omap/testlogs/test_tty_next_e36851d0/20120910020323/boot/2420n800/2420n800_log.txt
 What we thought the problem might be with n800 is that it tries to
resume when it didn't suspend before.

There are two ways through which we thought of handling this issue:

a) set device as active before enabling pm (which will prevent

pm_runtime_set_active(dev);
pm_runtime_enable(dev);

OR

b) adding a "suspended" flag to struct omap_uart_port which gets set on
suspend and cleared on resume. Then on resume you can check:

if (!up->suspended)
        return 0;

But using "pm_runtime_set_active" approach breaks things even on
beagle board xm,  though
it works fine on Panda.
Therefore, we used the "suspended" flag approach.

So. I just wanted to get some feedback from community about how using
"pm_runtime_set_active"
behaves differently in omap3 and omap4.

Because you are accusing me of potentially breaking your beagleboard
for merely suggesting further investigation and a better commit message.

You are the one going over the top, not me.

Where did I accuse you of anyting ? I just mentioned we experienced a
regression with beagleboard XM when using pm_runtime_set_active().

here's my quote:

> that was tested. It worked in pandaboard but didn't work on
> beagleboard XM. Sourav tried to start a discussion about that, but it
> simply died...

To add extra info, here you go:

We pinged Paul and asked if he had seen that before, he had no
pointers... Because Documentation/power/runtime_pm.txt was using a
mystruct->is_suspended flag, we just decided to follow the same
"design" since no-one was able to suggest why pm_runtime_set_active()
was breaking beagleXM nor how it was supposed to actually work.

Reading the code: pm_runtime_set_active() would tell pm_runtime core
the device is actually active by setting runtime_status to RPM_ACTIVE,
thus the following pm_runtime_get_sync() wouldn't actually call
runtime_resume() callback, but it would increment usage_counter.

I can't see why this would fail on beagleXM, but it does and we'd like
to hear in which situations this could fail...
Russell King - ARM Linux Sept. 25, 2012, 10:59 a.m. UTC | #15
Right, let's get this thread back onto a constructive footing and try
to understand the problems here.

Right, so output stops when ttyO2 is initialized.

Right, so now the question becomes - what is different on the Beagle Board
that prevents solution (a) from working - or put it another way, have we
uncovered _another_ bug.

For N800, for ttyO0 and ttyO1 which aren't in use, it may be correct.
We don't know for certain.  For ttyO2, the port is clearly already in
use as it's being used for console output.  So that means it's _not_
in suspended state, and therefore the initial runtime PM state is
wrong.

For Beagleboard - who knows, we have no information on that.  All we
know is that your (a) sequence causes a regression.

Anyway, let's analyse the code paths.  What is pm_runtime_get_sync()
doing?  Well, it calls __pm_runtime_resume(, RPM_GET_PUT).  That alters
the parent device's state (which doesn't matter for this, as the platform
device is a child of the main platform device, which has no runtime PM.)

It then calls the resume callback (from the pm domain/type/class/bus/
driver) and then does an idle check.

OMAP devices have a pm domain, so this is the candidate for the callback
at this level, which gets us into _od_runtime_resume().  This calls
omap_device_enable() before then moving on to the driver's runtime resume
method, and at that point the runtime PM resume is complete.

So, with your (a) solution, what's different is that we omit calling
omap_device_enable().  Therefore, my hunch is the reason that Beagleboard
doesn't work is because it doesn't like missing that call.

I bet if you do this:

	omap_device_enable(dev);
	pm_runtime_set_active(dev);
	pm_runtime_enable(dev);

that this will solve your problem, and Beagleboard will continue working.

What we have is a mismatch in both your case, and the Beagleboard case,
between the real state of the hardware, the runtime PM state, and the
OMAP hwmod state, and the above should bring all those states entirely
into line with each other for _every_ case.  It doesn't need any hacks
to prevent resume callbacks without prior suspends (which, incidentally,
the runtime PM core already guarantees provided you get the initial
state correct.)

I say again: I was _only_ suggesting further investigation, yet you

investigation and this is the only fix.

Well, I've just spent five minutes analysing the code paths - which I
hadn't looked at before - and I've pointed out what's probably causing
the problem for Beagle.  I think you owe me an appology over your
aggressive attitude towards my suggestions that there needed to be
some further investigation.

maybe that wasn't the best way to put it, but I was trying to point out
that either there was a bug on pm core or omap_device/hwmod, not that we
shouldn't investigate.

not what I meant, but fair enough... The "because of that" was supposed
to mean "because of pm_runtime_set_active()". I find the documentation
for that particular call to be rather poor and a bit confusing,
specially when further down, the very same document uses a
"is_suspended" flag which, in fact, shouldn't be needed when we have
pm_runtime_is_suspended() and the like.

I don't see any aggressive attitude towards what you suggested,
actually. Mailing list archives are available to check, but the one
cursing around was always yourself and THAT deserves an apology.

If you still think I've been at all aggressive, then sure, I apologize,
it wasn't what I meant though.

BTW, I'll point out a fatal flaw in your justification above.

If you read the entire example, you'll see that the is_suspended flag
is _not_ used to prevent resumes without suspends, but is used as a
flag to control whether the driver processes requests or not.  That's
entirely functionally different from using a "is_suspended" flag in
the way you mention above.

Section 5 is quite clear about the requirements at initialization time
for runtime PM, and nothing in section 9 contradicts that, and the
is_suspended flag in that example has nothing to do with any of this.

Total rubbish.  No apology, because I wasn't cursing you.  Whatever,
I'm not going to re-explain the email thread.

What I said was that your raising of beagleboard breakage (twice) was
idiotic to a request for investigation.  That's a statement I _still_
fully agree with, and I'll say it again if I have to.

Trying to shut down investigation because investigation may break
something _is_ idiotic - especially if the investigation reveals
potential reasons why that breakage would occur.  Further investigation
is precisely how we arrive at better solutions.

Perhaps it suggests that OMAP4 (PandaBoard) serial port is already
activated but OMAP3 (BeagleBoard) isn't. So we need to reflect that
either by doing pm_runtime_set_active() only on OMAP4 or by bringing
up the OMAP3 too before the pm_runtime_set_active() call.
BTW I understand get_sync(), set_active() and enable() are for
different purposes, they can't be traded for one another.

As Russell has already pointed out in great detail, the difference is
simply a mismatch between assumed HW stated and actual hardware state
between various boards.  Put simply, the driver assumes the HW is
disabled (runtime suspended) when it loads, and the first runtime resume
is meant to enable the HW.  If that assumption is wrong, it needs to be
fixed.

Have you figured out why the HW is already active on OMAP2?  (probably
bootloader?)  

That being said, already active HW should not cause this problem.  In
fact, because of possible early console use, the hwmod init of the UART
hwmods does not idle/reset them on boot, so they are left in the state
that the bootloader set them in.  

When the hwmod is later enabled for real during probe, the hwmod muxing
is done for that IP.  So, I suspect what is really happening is that the
mux settings are not right for the UARTS on n800, so when the probe
happens, the UART mux settings are changed and you lose the UART.

Can you double check the UART mux settings for that board?  You might
need some different mux settings in the board file.

Hi Sourav, Felipe,

any progress on fixing the N800 problem?  Would be good to keep it booting 
since we use it as our primary 2420 test platform.
