Hi Evan,

Thanks for the continued help in reviewing these patches!
No problem. I want to do more, but haven't found time to do the
prerequisite research before jumping into some of the other
discussions yet.

Add support for wake and sleep commands by using a tag to indicate
whether or not the aggregate and set requests fall into execution

What is AMC again? Is it the "right now" bucket? Maybe a comment on
the meaning of this bucket would be helpful.
That's correct. Will add a comment for this.

Why is it that this one doesn't have the multiply by
bcm->nodes[i]->channels again? I can't recall if there was a reason.
If it's correct maybe it deserves a comment.
I think the rationale behind this is generally for consumers to target a
certain minimum threshold to satisfy some structural latency
requirements as opposed to strictly throughput, and it may be easier for
consumers to reuse certain values to support hitting some minimum NoC
frequencies without having to be concerned with the number of channels
that may change from platform to platform.
I was mostly pointing out that sum_avg seems to have the multiply, but
max_peak does not. I would have expected those two things to be of the
same units, and get the same treatment. Maybe the hardware is taking
in different final units for that field, one that is per-channel and
one that isn't?

The hardware isn't treating the values differently. I couldn't find any justification other than the intuition mentioned above for the ease of voting from the consumer perspective. The consumer would know that this peak_bw value results in some floor performance from the system to satisfy its latency requirements. The same approach would work if we accounted for the number of channels as well, but given that channels may vary from platform to platform or even on the same platform that shares multiple channel configurations(DDR), it can be difficult for consumers to keep track of and have to adjust their votes constantly(to try to hit some frequency/latency requirement, this intuition doesn't apply for avg_bw since we're concerned with throughput in that case).

I don't understand the sum_avg vs sum_avg_cached. Here's what I understand:
1. qcom_icc_aggregate() does the math from the incoming values on
sum_avg, and then clobbers sum_avg_cached with those values.
2. bcm_aggregate() uses sum_avg_cached in its calculations, then clears sum_avg.

But I don't get why that's needed. Why not just have sum_avg? Wouldn't
it work the same? Ok, it wouldn't if you ended up calling
bcm_aggregate() multiple times on the same bcm. But you have a dirty
flag that prevents this from happening. So I think it's safe to remove
the cached arrays, and just clear out the sum_avg when you aggregate.
You are correct in that the dirty flag would prevent another repeat of
the bcm_aggregate() call in the same icc_set request. But consider a
following icc_set request on a different node that shares the same BCM,
the next bcm_aggregate() would result in an incorrect aggregate sum_avg
for the BCM since the avg_sum from the previous node(from the previous
icc_set) was cleared out. We need a way to retain the current state of
all nodes to accurately aggregate the bw values for the BCM.
I don't get it. qcom_icc_aggregate() clobbers sum_avg_cached. So
they're only ever a) equal, like after qcom_icc_aggregate(), or b)
sum_avg is zeroed, and sum_avg_cached is its old value. A new
icc_set_bw() would call aggregate_requests(), which would clobber
sum_avg_cached to sum_avg for every BCM involved. Then the core would
call apply_constraints(), then qcom_icc_set(), which would use
sum_avg_cached, and clear out sum_avg, being sure with the dirty flag
that bcm_aggregate() is only called once per BCM. This all happens
under the mutex held in the core. A new request would start the whole
thing over, since sum_avg is cleared. It seems to me that flow would
work the same with one array as it does with two. Maybe you can walk
me through a scenario?
-Evan

Let's walk through the scenario you've just described with the assumption that there's only one avg_sum value per node with two icc_set_bw() requests on two different nodes(say 2MB for node 1 and 1MB for node 2) under the same BCM(say BCM A). The first qcom_icc_aggregate() aggregates to a 2MB avg_sum at the node1 followed by apply_constraints(), qcom_icc_set(), bcm_aggregate() which causes BCM A to aggregate to max(node1->avg_sum, node2->avg_sum) and reach a vote_x of 2MB(for simplicity let's ignore unit). We then clear out node1->avg_sum before we start the next icc_set_bw(). In the following icc_set_bw(), the qcom_icc_aggregate() aggregates to 1MB in node2 followed by apply_constraints(), qcom_icc_set(), bcm_aggregate(), but now incorrectly aggregates BCM A to 1MB by looking at max(node1->avg_sum, node2->avg_sum) because node1->avg_sum was cleared out when in reality BCM A should have a vote_x value of 2MB at this point. The subsequent bcm_aggregate do not re-aggregate all of the requests for each of its nodes, but assumes that the aggregated results at the nodes are correct.

I guess all this extra business with tag_word and casting is so that
you can use test_bit, which is presumably a tiny bit faster? Does this
actually make a measurable difference? Maybe in the name of simplicity
we just do if (tag & BIT(i)), and then optimize if we find that
conditional to be a hotspot?
Using (tag & BIT(i)) as opposed to test_bit seems reasonable to me.
