Cover letter [PATCH v4 00/11] ARM: OMAP2+: AM33XX: Add suspend-resume support

Hello,

This series adds suspend/resume support for am335x. Version 3 of this series can be found at [1]. I apologize for the large delay between this and the previous revision. This code has been heavily refined since the last version based on the various comments received for v3. The major change from previous version is moving all wkup_m3 code into a remoteproc based driver. The new driver handles all IPC and fw loading and exposes a small API to be used by PM code to achieve low power states.

Firmware that can be used for testing this can be found at [2] on branch pm-remote-proc-v3, using am335x-pm-firmware.elf found in bin directory. Please note this has changed from all previous versions and is no longer the .bin file. Firmware can be built into kernel or placed in /lib/firmware in rootfs for automatic loading during boot.

This series has several dependencies. The wkup_m3_rproc utilizes a mailbox to communicate with the cm3 and depends on Suman's series for omap mbox support [3], which has several dependencies of it's own, listed in the cover letter. Also, a few changes to remoteproc itself were needed and have been provided by Suman here [4]. The edma patch included in this series was previously submitted by Daniel Mack and after discussion with him we agreed to include an updated version with this series as resume has a direct dependency on it due to hangs in mmc without it.

Because of the high number of dependencies I have pushed a branch for testing here [6] if anyone desires to try it out on branch pm-ds0-v3.16.

As is this series will only suspend and resume one time and then fail to resume afterwards due to the removal of direct PM code control of hwmods that do not properly assert their MSTANDBY signal after a context loss, discussed here [7]. In particular it is due to the usb_otg_hs hwmod that currently has no driver controlling it in the kernel. The main cause of the issue is that the SYSCONFIG register present within the IP must be reprogrammed after every suspend cycle and this only happens at boot if no driver is present. Work is in progress to allow suspend to function with or without drivers for the troublesome hwmods (cpgmac, usb_otg_hs, and tptc1-3) and will be provided in a separate future patch. The previous suggestion of allowing omap_device to handle it proved to be too invasive into both omap_device and omap_hwmod and the approach of allowing the firmware to handle it is not possible due to the inability of the CM3 to access the IPs causing the issue. I'd be happy to discuss this at length if anybody is interested.

It fails to compile with CONFIG_THUMB2_KERNEL though:
arch/arm/mach-omap2/sleep33xx.S:61: Error: cannot use register index with PC-relative addressing -- `str r1,emif_addr_virt'

Hmm, interestingly enough I can not reproduce this build error. Can you share your config and compiler version?

While I have a stripped down .config for just boneblack I can reproduce this with:
make multi_v7_defconfig
./scripts/config -e THUMB2_KERNEL

Which may not make much sense (exposes other thumb2 related issues), but with that .config sleep33xx.S fails to assemble with binutils 2.24 and succeeds with 2.23.2.

Which may be binutils' fault, I can't judge since I don't speak ARM asm ;)

Hope that helps,
Andre
