[Freedreno] [PATCH 2/3] drm/msm/gpu: Bypass PM QoS constraint for idle clamp

Tue Jan 10 18:21:46 UTC 2023
From: Rob Clark <robdclark at chromium.org>
Change idle freq clamping back to the direct method, bypassing PM QoS
requests. The problem with using PM QoS requests is they call
(indirectly) the governors ->get_target_freq() which goes thru a
get_dev_status() cycle. The problem comes when the GPU becomes active
again and we remove the idle-clamp request, we go through another
get_dev_status() cycle for the period that the GPU has been idle, which
triggers the governor to lower the target freq excessively.
This partially reverts commit 7c0ffcd40b16 ("drm/msm/gpu: Respect PM QoS
constraints"), but preserves the use of boost QoS request, so that it
will continue to play nicely with other QoS requests such as a cooling
device. This also mostly undoes commit 78f815c1cf8f ("drm/msm: return the
average load over the polling period")
