Subject[PATCH 0/2] Exynos5422 DMC: adjust to new devfreq monitoring mechanism
Date
Hi all,

There have been discussions around devfreq, it's related drivers
and governors, reporting some issues [1][2]. There are a patch sets
trying to address these issues [2][3], discussion is still ongoing.

This patch set is a follow up for changes presented in [2]. It moves
from internal interrupts to devfreq monitoring mechanism with fixed
polling interval in the memory controller. The value of polling and
uptreshold have been adjusted in order to get better reaction in the
benchmark workload [4]. The test workload is specific and I still
have to spend some more time to understand impact of different CPUs
or different utilization and governor's decisions. Now, with the patches
it looks better.
For other future adjustments, not specific to a particular
driver's code, I would rather see a different mechanism, which I'll post
shortly as an RFC.

The patch 1/2 needs [2] series, while the patch 2/2 is on top of Krzysztof's
today next/dt branch [5] (I assume patch 2/2 would go through his tree).

Here are test results for the benchmark from [4], showing some more accurate
reaction for the benchmark workload (gentle ask to Willy to confirm this):
simple_ondlemand:
littles: 1.40374 s (was 4.74308 s)
bigs: 1.44519 s (was 4.76556 s)
performance:
littles: 1.13635 s
bigs: 1.17349 s
