Hi,

Seems like MPU DVFS does not scale the voltages currently with DT boot, due to missing mapping between regulator -> VCVP. Fixed this by adding support for platform data in the TWL regulator DT case + adding platform
data quirk for the same. This same already works in the legacy boot, the
platform data is passed fine.

Tested on omap3-beagle by measuring the MPU voltage rail.

OMAP4+ platforms do not currently register DVFS regulator, so this set by
itself does not fix OMAP4 (needs the TPS MPU regulator added to DT etc. for OMAP4460.)

Tony proposed in the IRC apply this patch series in order to solve the following error messages with kernel 3.17

[    2.522949] omap2_set_init_voltage: unable to find boot up OPP for
vdd_mpu_iva
[    2.533721] omap2_set_init_voltage: unable to set vdd_mpu_iva
[    2.541564] omap2_set_init_voltage: unable to find boot up OPP for
vdd_core
[    2.551208] omap2_set_init_voltage: unable to set vdd_core
Quoted 3 lines

I'm using omap3-igep0020, I didn't mesure the MPU voltage rail but should these patches solve these errors ? Did you resolve these errors on your Beagleboard ?

These prints are caused by something else: namely the fact that beagleboard
rev C4+ boots up at 720MHz. This OPP is not supported by the kernel and quelches out the warning prints.

This should be fixed by modifying the OPP tables under the dtsi files, however the nasty thing is not all beagleboards support 720MHz OPP. You either need to specify a dts file for beagle-revC4 or do some kernel magic
to manually disable the 720MHz OPP on non-supported boards.

Adding and modifying some printk looks the problem is because it can't find the device opp.

The of_init_opp_table who reads the 'operating-points" from dtb is called after. Should be called before?

What is the board revision you got? Looks like it boots up at 600/200MHz.

Well, about board revision I'm using IGEPv2 not Beagleboard. And my board should be able to run up to 1GHz. Is 1GHz supported ?

NO. 1GHz cannot not be supported by the chip until we have avs class1.5 and ABB integrated into a proper cpufreq/dvfs solution.

we have tried multiple times in upstream to present a solution

you are welcome to read up on
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58541 to see why similar frequency was not enabled on omap4 (as an example).

You can also try tweaking around the tables under opp3xxx_data.c, not sure if these are initialized in the correct order either. However, the lack of these tables and the warnings mentioned do not prevent cpufreq from working, cpufreq is dependant on the DT tables. That being said, I am not sure if the legacy OPP tables are even needed anymore on DT boot...

Quoted 4 lines

Right, I've checked and cpufreq seems to work. Does this means that following call is not needed anymore ?

arch/arm/mach-omap2/opp3xxx_data.c:171:omap_device_initcall(omap3_opp_init);

only after we have pure DT only boot for OMAP3. we are supposed to support legacy mode for omap3 as well for now.
