PM-runtime uses the timer infrastructure for autosuspend. This implies that the minimum time before autosuspending a device is in the range of 1 tick included to 2 ticks excluded -On arm64 this means between 4ms and 8ms with default jiffies configuration -And on arm, it is between 10ms and 20ms These values are quite high for embedded systems which sometimes want the duration to be in the range of 1 ms. It is possible to switch autosuspend over to using hrtimers to get finer granularity for short durations and take advantage of slack to retain some margins and get long timeouts with minimum wakeups. On an arm64 platform that uses 1ms for autosuspending timeout of its GPU, idle power is reduced by 10% with hrtimer. The latency impact on arm64 hikey octo cores is: - mark_last_busy: from 1.11 us to 1.25 us - rpm_suspend: from 15.54 us to 15.38 us [Only the code path of rpm_suspend() that starts hrtimer has been measured.] arm64 image (arm64 default defconfig) decreases by around 3KB with following details: $ size vmlinux-timer text data bss dec hex filename 12034646 6869268 386840 19290754 |
