The CPU states representing the + range of dynamic idle states that a processor can enter at run-time, can be + specified through device tree bindings representing the parameters required to + enter/exit specific idle states on a given processor. + + According to the Server Base System Architecture document (SBSA, [3]), the + power states an ARM CPU can be put into are identified by the following list: + + - Running + - Idle_standby + - Idle_retention + - Sleep + - Off + + The power states described in the SBSA document define the basic CPU states on + top of which ARM platforms implement power management schemes that allow an OS + PM implementation to put the processor in different idle states (which include + states listed above; "off" state is not an idle state since it does not have + wake-up capabilities, hence it is not considered in this document). + + Idle state parameters (e.g. entry latency) are platform specific and need to + be characterized with bindings that provide the required information to OS PM + code so that it can build the required tables and use them at runtime. + + The device tree binding definition for ARM idle states is the subject of this + document. + + =========================================== + 2 - idle-states definitions + =========================================== + + Idle states are characterized for a specific system through a set of + timing and energy related properties, that underline the HW behaviour + triggered upon idle states entry and exit. + + The following diagram depicts the CPU execution phases and related timing + properties required to enter and exit an idle state: + + ..__[EXEC]__|__[PREP]__|__[ENTRY]__|__[IDLE]__|__[EXIT]__|__[EXEC]__.. + | | | | | + + |<------ entry ------->| + | latency | + |<- exit ->| + | latency | + |<-------- min-residency -------->| + |<------- wakeup-latency ------->| + + Diagram 1: CPU idle state execution phases + + EXEC: Normal CPU execution. + + PREP: Preparation phase before committing the hardware to idle mode + like cache flushing. This is abortable on pending wake-up + event conditions. The abort latency is assumed to be negligible + (i.e. less than the ENTRY + EXIT duration). If aborted, CPU + goes back to EXEC. This phase is optional. If not abortable, + this should be included in the ENTRY phase instead. + + ENTRY: The hardware is committed to idle mode. This period must run + to completion up to IDLE before anything else can happen. + + IDLE: This is the actual energy-saving idle period. This may last + between 0 and infinite time, until a wake-up event occurs. + + EXIT: Period during which the CPU is brought back to operational + mode (EXEC). + + entry-latency: Worst case latency required to enter the idle state. The + exit-latency may be guaranteed only after entry-latency has passed. + + min-residency: Minimum period, including preparation and entry, for a given + idle state to be worthwhile energywise. + + wakeup-latency: Maximum delay between the signaling of a wake-up event and the + CPU being able to execute normal code again. If not specified, this is assumed + to be entry-latency + exit-latency. + + These timing parameters can be used by an OS in different circumstances. + + An idle CPU requires the expected min-residency time to select the most + appropriate idle state based on the expected expiry time of the next IRQ + (i.e. wake-up) that causes the CPU to return to the EXEC phase. + + An operating system scheduler may need to compute the shortest wake-up delay + for CPUs in the system by detecting how long will it take to get a CPU out + of an idle state, e.g.: + + wakeup-delay = exit-latency + max(entry-latency - (now - entry-timestamp), 0) + + In other words, the scheduler can make its scheduling decision by selecting + (e.g. waking-up) the CPU with the shortest wake-up delay. + The wake-up delay must take into account the entry latency if that period + has not expired. The abortable nature of the PREP period can be ignored + if it cannot be relied upon (e.g. the PREP deadline may occur much sooner than + the worst case since it depends on the CPU operating conditions, i.e. caches + state). + + An OS has to reliably probe the wakeup-latency since some devices can enforce + latency constraint guarantees to work properly, so the OS has to detect the + worst case wake-up latency it can incur if a CPU is allowed to enter an + idle state, and possibly to prevent that to guarantee reliable device + functioning. + + The min-residency time parameter deserves further explanation since it is + expressed in time units but must factor in energy consumption coefficients. + + The energy consumption of a cpu when it enters a power state can be roughly + characterised by the following graph: + + | + | + | + e | + n | /--- + e | /------ + r | /------ + g | /----- + y | /------ + | ---- + | /| + | / | + | / | + | / | + | / | + | / | + |/ | + -----|-------+---------------------------------- + 0| 1 time(ms) + + Graph 1: Energy vs time example + + The graph is split in two parts delimited by time 1ms on the X-axis. + The graph curve with X-axis values = { x | 0 < x < 1ms } has a steep slope + and denotes the energy costs incurred while entering and leaving the idle + state. + The graph curve in the area delimited by X-axis values = {x | x > 1ms } has + shallower slope and essentially represents the energy consumption of the idle + state. + + min-residency is defined for a given idle state as the minimum expected + residency time for a state (inclusive of preparation and entry) after + which choosing that state become the most energy efficient option. A good + way to visualise this, is by taking the same graph above and comparing some + states energy consumptions plots. + + For sake of simplicity, let's consider a system with two idle states IDLE1, + and IDLE2: + + | + | + | + | /-- IDLE1 + e | /--- + n | /---- + e | /--- + r | /-----/--------- IDLE2 + g | /-------/--------- + y | ------------ /---| + | / /---- | + | / /--- | + | / /---- | + | / /--- | + | --- | + | / | + | / | + |/ | time + ---/----------------------------+------------------------ + |IDLE1-energy < IDLE2-energy | IDLE2-energy < IDLE1-energy + | + IDLE2-min-residency + + Graph 2: idle states min-residency example + + In graph 2 above, that takes into account idle states entry/exit energy + costs, it is clear that if the idle state residency time (i.e. time till next + wake-up IRQ) is less than IDLE2-min-residency, IDLE1 is the better idle state + choice energywise. + + This is mainly down to the fact that IDLE1 entry/exit energy costs are lower + than IDLE2. + + However, the lower power consumption (i.e. shallower energy curve slope) of + idle state IDLE2 implies that after a suitable time, IDLE2 becomes more energy + efficient. + + The time at which IDLE2 becomes more energy efficient than IDLE1 (and other + shallower states in a system with multiple idle states) is defined + IDLE2-min-residency and corresponds to the time when energy consumption of + IDLE1 and IDLE2 states breaks even. + + The definitions provided in this section underpin the idle states + properties specification that is the subject of the following sections. + + =========================================== + 3 - idle-states node + =========================================== + + ARM processor idle states are defined within the idle-states node, which is + a direct child of the cpus node [1] and provides a container where the + processor idle states, defined as device tree nodes, are listed. + + On ARM systems, it is a container of processor idle states nodes.
