ARM: OMAP3+: Implement timer workaround for errata i103 and i767 Errata Titles: i103: Delay needed to read some GP timer, WD timer and sync timer registers after wakeup (OMAP3/4) i767: Delay needed to read some GP timer registers after wakeup (OMAP5) Description (i103/i767): If a General Purpose Timer (GPTimer) is in posted mode (TSICR [2].POSTED=1), due to internal resynchronizations, values read in TCRR, TCAR1 and TCAR2 registers right after the timer interface clock (L4) goes from stopped to active may not return the expected values. The most common event leading to this situation occurs upon wake up from idle. GPTimer non-posted synchronization mode is not impacted by this limitation. Workarounds: 1). Disable posted mode 2). Use static dependency between timer clock domain and MPUSS clock domain 3). Use no-idle mode when the timer is active Workarounds #2 and #3 are not pratical from a power standpoint and so workaround #1 has been implemented. Disabling posted mode adds some CPU overhead for configuring and reading the timers as the CPU has to wait for accesses to be re-synchronised within the timer. However, disabling posted mode guarantees correct operation. Please note that it is safe to use posted mode for timers if the counter (TCRR) and capture (TCARx) registers will never be read. An example of this is the clock-event system timer. This is used by the kernel to schedule events however, the timers counter is never read and capture registers are not used. Given that the kernel configures this timer often yet never reads the counter register it is safe to enable posted mode in this case. Hence, for the timer used for kernel clock-events, posted mode is enabled by overriding the errata for devices that are impacted by this defect. For drivers using the timers that do not read the counter or capture registers and wish to use posted mode, can override the errata and enable posted mode by making the following function calls. __omap_dm_timer_override_errata(timer, OMAP_TIMER_ERRATA_I103_I767); __omap_dm_timer_enable_posted(timer); Both dmtimers and watchdogs are impacted by this defect this patch only implements the workaround for the dmtimer. Currently the watchdog driver does not read the counter register and so no workaround is necessary. Posted mode will be disabled for all OMAP2+ devices (including AM33xx) using a GP timer as a clock-source timer to guarantee correct operation. This is not necessary for OMAP24xx devices but the default clock-source timer for OMAP24xx devices is the 32k-sync timer and not the GP timer and so should not have any impact. This should be re-visited for future devices if this errata is fixed. Confirmed with Vaibhav Hiremath that this bug also impacts AM33xx devices.

ARM: OMAP2+: Add dmtimer platform function to reserve systimers During early boot, one or two dmtimers are reserved by the kernel as system timers (for clocksource and clockevents). These timers are marked as reserved and the dmtimer driver is notified which timers have been reserved via the platform data information. For OMAP2+ devices the timers reserved may vary depending on device and compile flags. Therefore, it is not easy to assume which timers we be reserved for the system timers. In order to migrate the dmtimer driver to support device-tree we need a way to pass the timers reserved for system timers to the dmtimer driver. Using the platform data structure will not work in the same way as it is currently used because the platform data structure will be stored statically in the dmtimer itself and the platform data will be selected via the device-tree match device function (of_match_device). There are a couple ways to workaround this. One option is to store the system timers reserved for the kernel in the device-tree and query them on boot. The downside of this approach is that it adds some delay to parse the DT blob to search for the system timers. Secondly, for OMAP3 devices we have a dependency on compile time flags and the device-tree would not be aware of that kernel compile flags and so we would need to address that. The second option is to add a function to the dmtimer code to reserved the system timers during boot and so the dmtimer knows exactly which timers are being used for system timers. This also allows us to remove the "reserved" member from the timer platform data. This seemed like the simpler approach and so was implemented here.
