[PATCH v2 00/10] Exynos IOMMU: proper runtime PM support (use device dependencies)

From: Marek Szyprowski
Date: Fri Jun 17 2016 - 02:27:18 EST


Hello,

This patch series finally implements proper runtime PM support in Exynos
IOMMU driver. This has been achieved by using device links, which lets
SYSMMU controller's runtime PM to follow master's device runtime PM (the
device which actually performs DMA transaction). The main idea
behind this solution is an observation that any DMA activity from master
device can be done only when master device is active, thus when master
device is suspended SYSMMU controller device can also be suspended.

This patchset solves the situation that power domains are always enabled,
because all SYSMMU controllers (which belongs to those domains) are
permanently active (because existing driver was simplified and kept
SYSMMU device active all the time after initialization).

Patches 1-5 are resend of the "[RFC][PATCH 0/5] Functional dependencies
between devices" patchset:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.power-management.general/67424/focus=2126379
I've included them here, because it is hard to find them all on mailing
list archives.

Patches 6-8 are fixes to device dependencies/links code, which were
required to use this solution for Exynos IOMMU driver. I'm not PM/runtime
PM code expert, so please double check if my changes are really correct.

This patchset requires my previous changes to Exynos IOMMU driver
submitted in the "Exynos IOMMU: improve clock management" thread:
