Hello, This series adds Core power domain driver for NVIDIA Tegra SoCs and a common OPP helper which initializes OPP table specifically for Tegra drivers. The patches depend on the ongoing series [1] which adds resource-managed OPP API.
[1] https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-pm/list/?series=446525 NVIDIA Tegra SoCs have a dedicated "Core" power domain to which majority of SoC peripherals belong. The core domain is connected to a dedicated voltage rail, which is exposed as a voltage regulator to the Linux kernel. Adding support for power management (i.e. voltage scaling) of the Core domain allows to significantly improve power consumption of the Tegra chip. In particular this PM work solves the overheating problem on Tegra30 devices. It allows Ouya Tegra30 game console to run at 40C during system idle in oppose to going over 60C. Matt Merhar collected temperature stats on his Ouya [2] which show a very significant improvement. [2] https://imgur.com/a/z4NDWqk Changelog: v3: - This series is a continuation of [3][4]. I factored out and grouped these soc/tegra patches since they have a common dependency on the OPP API patches [1] and the rest of PM patches depend on this series.
