Many CPU architectures have caches that can scale independent of the CPUs.
Frequency scaling of the caches is necessary to make sure the cache is not
a performance bottleneck that leads to poor performance and power. The same
idea applies for RAM/DDR.

To achieve this, this patch adds a generic devfreq governor that takes the
current frequency of each CPU frequency domain and then adjusts the
frequency of the cache (or any devfreq device) based on the frequency of
the CPUs. It listens to CPU frequency transition notifiers to keep itself
up to date on the current CPU frequency.

To decide the frequency of the device, the governor does one of the
following:

* Uses a CPU frequency to device frequency mapping table
  - Either one mapping table used for all CPU freq policies (typically used
    for system with homogeneous cores/clusters that have the same OPPs).
  - One mapping table per CPU freq policy (typically used for ASMP systems
    with heterogeneous CPUs with different OPPs)

OR

* Scales the device frequency in proportion to the CPU frequency. So, if
  the CPUs are running at their max frequency, the device runs at its max
  frequency.  If the CPUs are running at their min frequency, the device
  runs at its min frequency. And interpolated for frequencies in between.

This exactly has the same purpose with "passive" governor except for the
single part: passive governor depends on another devfreq driver, not
cpufreq driver.

If both governors have many features in common, can you merge them into one?
Passive governor also has "get_target_freq", which allows driver authors
to define the mapping.

Probably, you will need to add one more notifier call to get events from
cpufreq instead of devfreq.

If you want to satisfy these two cases to the "modified" passive governors,
you may need to supply two "preloaded" get_target_freq functions for
struct devfreq_passive_data. If that's impossible, requiring a bit more
modifications, you may need to write alternative routines in
update_devfreq_passive().

Cheers,
MyungJoo

Is this boilerplate fine? ( using // )

Thanks for the review and pointing me to the passive governor. I agree 
that at a high level they are both doing the same. I can certainly stuff 
this CPU freq to dev freq mapping into passive governor, but I think 
it'll just make one huge set of code that's harder to understand and 
maintain because it trying to do different things under the hood.

There are also a bunch of complexities and optimizations that come with 
the cpufreq-map governor that don't fit with the passive governor.

1. It's not one CPU who's frequency we have to listen to. There are 
multiple CPUs/policies we have to aggregate across.
2. We have to deal with big vs little having different needs/mappings.
3. Since it's always just CPUfreq, I can optimize the handling in the 
transition notifiers. If I have 4 different devices that are scaled 
based on CPU freq, I still use only 1 transition notifier. It becomes a 
bit harder to do with the passive governor.
4. It requires that the device explicitly support the passive governor 
and pick a mapping function. With cpufreq-map governor, the device 
drivers don't need to make any changes. Whoever is making a device/board 
can choose what devices to scale up base on CPU freq based on their 
board and their needs. Even an end user can say, scale the GPU based on 
my CPU based on interpolation if they choose to.
5. If a device has some other use for the private data, it can't work 
with passive governor, but can work with cpufreq-map governor.
6. I also want to improve cpufreq-map governor to handle hotplug 
correctly in later patches (needs more discussion) and that'll add more 
complexity.

I think for these reasons we shouldn't combine these two governors. Let 
me know what you think.

Thanks for the pointers. I understood what you mean here.

I was just following what I thought was the new standard. checkpatch 
even complains about not having this.

Bindings should be a separate patch.

Now we have frequencies listed in multiple places, the OPP tables and 
here? Perhaps it is grouping OPPs that should be done.

This all looks bolted on and very much Linux specifc.

This doesn't list all OPPs (it can if necessary). This is listing the 
minimum frequency needed to give good performance/power for a 
device/product.

AFAIK, OPP grouping isn't something that's supported in OPP framework or 
in DT. Is there something specific you had in mind? Also, I'd like for 
this to work even with devices that don't have OPPs listed in DT.

Thanks,
Saravana

Shouldn't the "status" property be used to disable OPPs you don't need
on a particular platform ?

Duplicating values is highly prone to errors and should be avoided.

Also what's the solution you have for platforms with new *QCom FW Cpufreq* ?
IIUC the frequency is obtained from the firmware. TBH this should ideally
be handled in firmware if cpufreq is also handled by the firmware. I guess
this platform doesn't have that ?

But that's not the point here? We aren't trying to disable any OPPs 
here? Not sure what you mean.

All QC platforms would use this.

As a personal (non-Qcom) opinion, I'd rather the kernel control this 
than have some black magic FW manage this. I've a really bitter taste in 
my mouth for FW hiding this because of a broken ACPI implementation in 
one of my x86 motherboards prevented CPUfreq from working (this was well 
before I worked on CPUfreq). Pushing stuff to FW seems to beat the ideal 
behind an opensource OS. In a few cases it's elegant or more robust, so 
maybe in those cases its okay to use a FW. But I'd rather not for 
simpler stuff like this.

OK, I misunderstood, but my main concern was about duplication.

IIUC, opp entries are nodes themselves with v2 bindings, can't you use

How about the ones that get OPPs from firmware ? I thought that was the case
with new *QCom FW Cpufreq*

Indeed every OS person having to find/debug the firmware bug may feel that.
But that doesn't change the fact that the embedded space is evolving.
Firmware is inevitable for good or bad, we need to accept that fact and
move on TBH.

Alternate way to look at this is that embedded developers(at least me) are
new to this space and feel that.

> Pushing stuff to FW seems to beat the ideal behind an opensource OS.

Not always. Even the recent security fixes(spectre/meltdown) had some
dependencies on f/w to deal with the issues. So finding the ways to
co-exist is more helpful than dismissing it.

But there are instances where such simple stuffs also open up for security
exploits(clkscrew)

With the cpu-freq driver for SDM845 SoC supporting fast_switch and 
schedutil supporting
dynamic switching wouldn't this governor be incompatible due to its 
reliance on transition
notifiers? Is it planned to be used only with ondemand/performance 
governors?

+devfreq-cpufreq-map is a parent device that contains one or more child devices.
