* Generic Exynos Bus frequency device
The Samsung Exynos SoC has many buses for data transfer between DRAM
and sub-blocks in SoC. Most Exynos SoCs share the common architecture
for buses. Generally, each bus of Exynos SoC includes a source clock
and a power line, which are able to change the clock frequency
of the bus in runtime. To monitor the usage of each bus in runtime,
the driver uses the PPMU (Platform Performance Monitoring Unit), which
is able to measure the current load of sub-blocks.
The Exynos SoC includes the various sub-blocks which have the each AXI bus.
The each AXI bus has the owned source clock but, has not the only owned
power line. The power line might be shared among one more sub-blocks.
So, we can divide into two type of device as the role of each sub-block.
There are two type of bus devices as following:
- parent bus device
- passive bus device
Basically, parent and passive bus device share the same power line.
The parent bus device can only change the voltage of shared power line
and the rest bus devices (passive bus device) depend on the decision of
the parent bus device. If there are three blocks which share the VDD_xxx
power line, Only one block should be parent device and then the rest blocks
should depend on the parent device as passive device.
VDD_xxx |--- A block (parent)
|--- B block (passive)
|--- C block (passive)
There are a little different composition among Exynos SoC because each Exynos
SoC has different sub-blocks. Therefore, such difference should be specified
in devicetree file instead of each device driver. In result, this driver
is able to support the bus frequency for all Exynos SoCs.
Required properties for all bus devices:
- compatible: Should be "samsung,exynos-bus".
- clock-names : the name of clock used by the bus, "bus".
- clocks : phandles for clock specified in "clock-names" property.
- operating-points-v2: the OPP table including frequency/voltage information
to support DVFS (Dynamic Voltage/Frequency Scaling) feature.
Required properties only for parent bus device:
- vdd-supply: the regulator to provide the buses with the voltage.
- devfreq-events: the devfreq-event device to monitor the current utilization
of buses.
Required properties only for passive bus device:
- devfreq: the parent bus device.
Optional properties only for parent bus device:
- exynos,saturation-ratio: the percentage value which is used to calibrate
the performance count against total cycle count.
- exynos,voltage-tolerance: the percentage value for bus voltage tolerance
which is used to calculate the max voltage.
Detailed correlation between sub-blocks and power line according to Exynos SoC:
- In case of Exynos3250, there are two power line as following:
VDD_MIF |--- DMC
VDD_INT |--- LEFTBUS (parent device)
|--- PERIL
|--- MFC
|--- G3D
|--- RIGHTBUS
|--- PERIR
|--- FSYS
|--- LCD0
|--- PERIR
|--- ISP
|--- CAM
- In case of Exynos4210, there is one power line as following:
VDD_INT |--- DMC (parent device)
|--- LEFTBUS
|--- PERIL
|--- MFC(L)
|--- G3D
|--- TV
|--- LCD0
|--- RIGHTBUS
|--- PERIR
|--- MFC(R)
|--- CAM
|--- FSYS
|--- GPS
|--- LCD0
|--- LCD1
- In case of Exynos4x12, there are two power line as following:
VDD_MIF |--- DMC
VDD_INT |--- LEFTBUS (parent device)
|--- PERIL
|--- MFC(L)
|--- G3D
|--- TV
|--- IMAGE
|--- RIGHTBUS
|--- PERIR
|--- MFC(R)
|--- CAM
|--- FSYS
|--- GPS
|--- LCD0
|--- ISP
- In case of Exynos5422, there are two power line as following:
VDD_MIF |--- DREX 0 (parent device, DRAM EXpress controller)
|--- DREX 1
VDD_INT |--- NoC_Core (parent device)
|--- G2D
|--- G3D
|--- DISP1
|--- NoC_WCORE
|--- GSCL
|--- MSCL
|--- ISP
|--- MFC
|--- GEN
|--- PERIS
|--- PERIC
|--- FSYS
|--- FSYS2
- In case of Exynos5433, there is VDD_INT power line as following:
VDD_INT |--- G2D (parent device)
|--- MSCL
|--- GSCL
|--- JPEG
|--- MFC
|--- HEVC
|--- BUS0
|--- BUS1
|--- BUS2
|--- PERIS (Fixed clock rate)
|--- PERIC (Fixed clock rate)
|--- FSYS (Fixed clock rate)
Example1:
Show the AXI buses of Exynos3250 SoC. Exynos3250 divides the buses to
power line (regulator). The MIF (Memory Interface) AXI bus is used to
transfer data between DRAM and CPU and uses the VDD_MIF regulator.
- MIF (Memory Interface) block
: VDD_MIF |--- DMC (Dynamic Memory Controller)
- INT (Internal) block
: VDD_INT |--- LEFTBUS (parent device)
|--- PERIL
|--- MFC
|--- G3D
