The SMC seems to do the right thing on it's own as I can see that the CPU clock rate is constrained to the highest non-turbo clock when on battery power while it boosts up to max-turbo when on AC and sufficient thermal headroom is there. Trying to disable BAPM mid flight is the only thing that is able to make it hang. So for this machine the "fix" is clearly to blame for an instability. > Alex > > > > > As there are no users of this hook anymore we can just remove the calling > > infrastructure. > > > > Signed-off-by: Lucas Stach > > --- > > I've did some pretty extensive tests with one of the problematic Trinity > > mobile parts.

So to describe a bit more what I found on a A8-4500M (Trinity): BAPM is only stable with power gating disabled. Unfortunately disabling power gating adds about 1.5W to the idle power consumption, enabling BAPM adds another 8W to this, so this is clearly unacceptable on battery power. Or maybe it is if the user explicitly requested the performance power state. When properly en-/disabling power gating before a BAPM transition I can get a stable transition without hanging the GPU. I can see that it works as CPU clock rates are constrained to non-turbo without BAPM while they go up quite a bit (but not to max-turbo) with BAPM enabled. Now the problem is that after switching BAPM off for the first time the GPU is stuck at whatever power level it was at the moment of the BAPM transition. This can be any power level, low power if the transition happened with GPU idle or even the highest power level if the GPU was rendering at that moment. So simply telling the SMC to switch off BAPM is clearly not doing the right thing. Most likely the DPM state needs to be reinitialized when switching BAPM. The battery power state even has a flag to disable BAPM. So I think the right thing to do when switching between AC/DC is to do a complete re-evaluation of the power state and to do a complete DPM power state switch if necessary. The simple BAPM on/off callback won't be of much help for this. Regards, Lucas
[PATCH 2/2] drm/radeon: remove bapm callbacks
Trying to disable BAPM on battery power does not fix the problematic
Trinity mobile parts. Fixing those probably need a more complex solution,
like doing a complete reinit of the DPM state. This will take more work
and most likely it will not be possible to map this to a single callback.
Even worse trying to change the BAPM state mid flight is breaking BAPM
on Richland mobile parts that are otherwise completely stable with BAPM
enabled.
As there are no users of this hook anymore we can just remove the calling
infrastructure.

I've did some pretty extensive tests with one of the problematic Trinity
mobile parts. I was able to figure out a stable config with BAPM enabled
for this, but unfortunately the power consumption rose quite a bit. So on
Trinity one has to disable BAPM while on battery power. I found a sequence
to enable/disable BAPM mid flight without hanging the GPU, but the SMC
seemed to be stuck after that, as no DPM power level changes were happening
anymore.

Do you have any examples of this? This was added to fix bapm stability on
mobile parts and did help on a number of systems. Bapm is disabled by default
since it is so problematic on a lot of systems. Ripping all of this out
doesn't seem like it will really help anything.

Can you elaborate on this? This seems to contradict what the patch does.
