Hardware may be preprogrammed to a specific performance state, which may not be zero initially during boot. This may lead to that genpd's current performance state becomes inconsistent with the state of the hardware. To deal with this, the driver for a device that is being attached to its genpd, need to request an initial performance state vote, which is typically done by calling some of the OPP APIs while probing. In some cases this would lead to boilerplate code in the drivers. Let's make it possible to avoid this, by adding a new optional callback to genpd and invoke it per device during the attach process. In this way, the genpd provider driver can inform genpd about the initial performance state that is needed for the device.

I think it should be a part of this patch, but sounds like you want to work on it separately, correct?I didn't omit the handling, but instead relied solely on the pm_runtime_suspended() check in dev_pm_genpd_set_performance_state().
It doesn't work as expected for Tegra because pm_runtime_suspended() returns false while RPM is disabled and it's normally disabled at the attachment time.

base device and not the virtual domain device.No I am not. :-) Let me elaborate. For the single PM domain case, 'dev' and 'base_dev' are pointing to the same device. So this works fine. For the multiple PM domain case or when attaching goes via genpd_dev_pm_attach_by_id(), 'dev' is the virtual device registered in genpd_dev_pm_attach_by_id(). In this case, it's 'dev' that is becoming attached to genpd and not the 'base_dev'. Note also that, runtime PM has not been enabled for 'dev' yet at this point and 'dev' has been assigned the same OF node as 'base_dev", to allow OF parsing to work as is for it. Moreover, to deal with runtime PM in the multiple PM domain case, the consumer driver should create a device link. Along the lines of this: device_link_add(base_dev, dev, DL_FLAG_PM_RUNTIME | DL_FLAG_STATELESS), thus assigning the virtual device ('dev') as the supplier for its consumer device ('base_dev').quoted
These all is handled properly by my patch [1]. Hence it's complicated for the reason.See above. It shouldn't have to be complicated. If it still is, there is something to fix for the multiple PM domain case.quoted
[1]Alright, it actually works now on Tegra using the dev in the callback for the case of multiple domains, I re-checked it. Previously, when I tried that, there was a conflict in regards to OPP usage, I don't remember details anymore. Maybe the recent changes that were suggested by Viresh helped with that. So yes, there is no need to pass the base device anymore.Great! So, it seems like $subject patch should be a way forward for you then?The current behaviour is incorrect for Tegra because it needs to set the rpm_pstate for rpm-suspended device, instead of bumping the state immediately. Power management is defeated without it on Tegra because SoC will start to consume extra power while device that needs this power is suspended.Okay, I understand your concern. For devices that may remain runtime suspended when their consumer drivers probes them, the behaviour may be suboptimal. This because it could lead to having an active performance state vote for a runtime suspended device, at least until it gets runtime resumed and then runtime suspended again. This all boils down to how the consumer driver deploys support for runtime PM - and genpd doesn't know nor can control that.
Previously, I added the 'dev_suspended' argument to the dev_get_performance_state() callback to allow PD driver to decide whether state should applied immediately or on rpm-resume, but you asked to remove it because it didn't make sense to you [1]. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pm/CAPDyKFo=SFpm+uJYH4UDfKWLVnkP2cKkBcbOQeVhU5hRxHUMCw@mail.gmail.com/ (local) Does it make sense now?
I wonder if we perhaps should just leave this as is then. In other words, rely on the consumer driver to vote for an initial performance state of the device during ->probe(). In this way, the consumer driver can decide what is the best thing to do, rather than letting genpd make guesses.
The point of this series is to remove the boilerplate code from consumer drivers. I already implemented variant with the explicit state syncing done by consumer drivers, but Viresh suggested that it should be done by the PD driver, this is why we're discussing it all over again. We either need to add quirks to consumer drivers or make PD API more flexible. You're not in favor of extending the PD API. To me the variant with the PD API extension is a bit nicer since it removes the boilerplate code, but I also see why you don't like it. Viresh, are you okay with going back to the variant with the dev_pm_opp_sync() helper?
Note that, comparing what we have done for power on/off during attach/probe. For the legacy case (the single PM domain case) we power on the PM domain. For the multiple PM domain case, we leave the PM domain as is.
That is a similar situation here. If PD driver doesn't implement the new dev_get_performance_state() callback, then nothing is changed for the consumer drivers.

Otherwise $subject looks okay.quoted
BTW, I forgot to add your Suggested-by: tag for the patch, you certainly deserve at least that. Or perhaps you are fine with co-developed by tag?Either is fine. Although, won't it be easier to keep these PD patches within the Tegra series since it depends on them? I can pick up the patches into the next version of Tegra series.Let's see. If we can agree on how to deal with this series, maybe we can ask Rafael to send another pull-request before rc1 is out, so you can base your series for Tegra more easily on top.
