The 1.2 GHz variant of the Armada 3720 SOC is unstable with DVFS: when
the SOC boots, the WTMI firmware sets clocks and AVS values that work
correctly with 1.2 GHz CPU frequency, but random crashes occur once
cpufreq driver starts scaling.

We do not know currently what is the reason:
- it may be that the voltage value for L0 for 1.2 GHz variant provided
  by the vendor in the OTP is simply incorrect when scaling is used,
- it may be that some delay is needed somewhere,
- it may be something else.

The most sane solution now seems to be to simply forbid the cpufreq
driver on 1.2 GHz variant.

Signed-off-by: Marek Behún <kabel@kernel.org>
Fixes: 92ce45fb875d ("cpufreq: Add DVFS support for Armada 37xx")
---
If someone from Marvell could look into this, it would be great since
basically 1.2 GHz variant cannot scale, which is a feature that was
claimed to be supported by the SOC.

Ken Ma / Victor Gu, you have worked on commit
https://github.com/MarvellEmbeddedProcessors/linux-marvell/commit/d6719fdc2b3cac58064f41b531f86993c919aa9a
in linux-marvell.
Your patch takes away the 1202 mV constant for 1.2 GHz base CPU
frequency and instead adds code that computes the voltages from the
voltage found in L0 AVS register (which is filled in by WTMI firmware).

Do you know why the code does not work correctly for some 1.2 GHz
boards? Do we need to force the L0 voltage to 1202 mV if it is lower,
or something?

I am not picking it up for 5.14-rc1 to make sure others get a chance
to provide reviews.

+Jason from GlobalScale as this issue affects GlobalScale Espressobin Ultra and V7 1.2 GHz boards.

Konstantin, Nadav, Ken, Victor, Jason: This issue is pretty serious,
CPU on 1.2GHz A3720 is crashing. Could you please look at it?

We can not hang forever for something that breaks stuff. Applied this for 5.14
now.

Hi Pali,

There is an errata for that.

"
Switching from L2/L3 state (200/300 MHz) to L0 state (1200 MHz) requires sudden changes of VDD supply, and it
requires time to stabilize the VDD supply. The solution is to use gradual switching from L2/L3 to L1 and then L1 to L0
state.
"

I would also add additional delay for the VDD supply stabilization.

FYI,

Elad.

Hello Elad and thank you for response!

This errata is already implemented in the kernel for a longer time by
Gregory's commit:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=61c40f35f5cd6f67ccbd7319a1722eb78c815989

There is also 20ms delay after L2/L3 to L1 state switch.

Any idea what could be wrong here? Or is something more than above
commit needed to correctly implement that errata?

Hi,

As first step, please try to increase the delay to 100ms, see if it helps.

Elad.

Hello Elad and thank you for response!

This errata is already implemented in the kernel for a longer time by Gregory's commit:
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__git.kernel.org_pub_scm_linux_kernel_git_stable_linux.git_commit_-3Fid-3D61c40f35f5cd6f67ccbd7319a1722eb78c815989&d=DwIDaQ&c=nKjWec2b6R0mOyPaz7xtfQ&r=eTeNTLEK5-TxXczjOcKPhANIFtlB9pP4lq9qhdlFrwQ&m=-E-AwB9STVx8xgapaCNSpDJIPPnkrzrWkZX0uFz2bfNGFnckZelT_XaovUUPrNIg&s=4EUcdDWB_gqnEV8nREQi9E_iym5bjoM6l5zLrbh_GVs&e= 

There is also 20ms delay after L2/L3 to L1 state switch.

Any idea what could be wrong here? Or is something more than above commit needed to correctly implement that errata?

Hello Elad!

Robert (in CC) tested this proposed change. But increasing delay to
100ms does not help. CPU still crashes early during boot.

Hi Elad,
Here are 2 bootlogs, but I dont think they are of any use as the
traces are rather random
and they are always different, like a real voltage issue:
https://gist.github.com/robimarko/113216f566ccf159dfd33933889da042
https://gist.github.com/robimarko/990d757870d44a3c5acdfeb957547705

Here is a bootleg with the frequency changes, OPP points that are set
by the CPUFreq driver are also here:
https://gist.github.com/robimarko/1a81b0c6e93735b75ff4461d405c8033

I am still digging to print the voltage changes as _set_opp_voltage is
not being used.

Regards,
Robert

Hi,

Unless the logs are misleading, then I see here:

cpu cpu0: _set_opp: switching OPP: Freq 200000000 -> 1200000000 Hz, Level 0 -> 0, Bw 0 -> 0

Which violates the errata.
If there is an interim step in between, I think it should be printed out in the debug so we can clearly understand what is the interim frequency setting between 200 and 1200 MHz.

Elad.

Hi Elad,
Here are 2 bootlogs, but I dont think they are of any use as the traces are rather random and they are always different, like a real voltage issue:

Here is a bootleg with the frequency changes, OPP points that are set by the CPUFreq driver are also here:
https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__gist.github.com_robimarko_1a81b0c6e93735b75ff4461d405c8033&d=DwIFaQ&c=nKjWec2b6R0mOyPaz7xtfQ&r=eTeNTLEK5-TxXczjOcKPhANIFtlB9pP4lq9qhdlFrwQ&m=u39n7XPBdQVaoaviM32QcFaiO0KDs3BVzkeF-4zrqPKElNH3igH9KqEKfxSKLz-H&s=02ljqhQAdZki-JwDYNPKaStmzSkhuitBRP6R17iOZqA&e= 

I am still digging to print the voltage changes as _set_opp_voltage is not being used.

This is printed directly by the _set_opp from the cpufreq core, so it
should be accurate.
Pali, am I doing this correctly or I need to print from the A3K
cpufreq or clk drivers?

Hello! You need to print it from a3k clk driver. cpufreq core just ask
driver to switch speed from 200000000 to 1200000000 and clk driver then
change it with its own workaround function.

The real change of Level is done at these places:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/tree/drivers/clk/mvebu/armada-37xx-periph.c?h=v5.19#n548
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/tree/drivers/clk/mvebu/armada-37xx-periph.c?h=v5.19#n592

Check places where is done write operation to register
ARMADA_37XX_NB_CPU_LOAD.

You should print debug logs when _calling_ regmap_update_bits(). And
current log is very strange, you are printing message line
"%pCn requested rate %lu load_level %u" for iteration in for-loop, also
when "val != div". So log contains lot of incorrect lines.
