similar to: [RFC 0/4] Implement full clockgating for Kepler1 and 2

It's here! After a lot of investigation, rewrites, and traces, I present the patch series to implement all known levels of clockgating for Kepler1 and Kepler2 GPUs. Starting with Fermi GPUs (this is probably present on earlier GPUs as well, but with a far less easy to manage interface), nvidia added two clockgating levels that are handled mostly in firmware (with the exception of course, of

Next version of my patchseries for adding clockgating support for kepler1 and 2 on nouveau. The first version of this series can be found here: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/36504/ Some very important changes: - Fix gf100_clkgate_init() to actually write registers! This got broken in the last version by accident - Dump the register packs and the resulting register writes into

The first version of this series can be found here: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/36504/ Some small changes (shouldn't change anything functionally): - Made gf100_therm_new, gk104_clkgate_pack, and gk110_fb_clkgate_blcg_init_unk_0 static (re: kbuild test bot) - Making all three of

Next version of my patchseries for adding clockgating support for kepler1 and 2 on nouveau. The first version of this series can be found here: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/36504/ Some minor changes: - Clarified that SLCG stands for 'secondary level clockgating', thanks for the small tip nvidia! - Removed the concept of levels, this was more useful for debugging then

Somehow I didn't manage to notice this the last time I looked at my mmiotraces, these seem to be all valid registers. Forwarding this to stable, as there's a small chance that not having these could cause clockgating to be unstable.

This adds support for enabling automatic clockgating on nvidia GPUs for Fermi and later generations. This saves a little bit of power, bringing my fermi GPU's power consumption from ~28.3W on idle to ~27W, and my kepler's idle power consumption from ~23.6W to ~21.65W. Similar to how the nvidia driver seems to handle this, we enable clockgating for each engine that supports it after

This enables BLCG optimization for kepler1. When using clockgating, nvidia's firmware has a set of registers which are initially programmed by the vbios with various engine delays and other mysterious settings that are safe enough to bring up the GPU. However, the values used by the vbios are more power hungry then they need to be, so the nvidia driver writes it's own more optimized set of

Thanks for the work so far. A quick scan through the first NVC4 trace at hand, using upstream demmio, reveals at least 20 writes to the BLCG registers of PGRAPH and a few in PXBAR prior to altering the value of register 0x20200 (see below). We know that these are related to the clock gating you enable. Are you 110% sure that fiddling with 0x20200 bits without first setting these values can

This adds support for enabling automatic clockgating on nvidia GPUs for Kepler1. While this is not technically a clockgating level, it does enable clockgating using the clockgating values initially set by the vbios (which should be safe to use). This introduces two therm helpers for controlling basic clockgating: nvkm_therm_clkgate_enable() - enables clockgating through CG_CTRL, done after

From: Thierry Reding <treding at nvidia.com> The recently introduced clock gate support breaks on Tegra chips because no thermal support is enabled for those devices. Conditionalize the code on the existence of thermal support to fix this.

This adds support for enabling automatic clockgating on nvidia GPUs for Kepler1, referred to as "CG" throughout the driver. This is one of two powersaving levels that Kepler1 supports. This introduces two therm helpers for controlling basic clockgating: nvkm_therm_clkgate_enable() - enables clockgating through CG_CTRL, done after initializing the GPU fully nvkm_therm_clkgate_fini() -
