Previously, the 1GHz variants were marked as a turbo, because that variant has reduced thermal operating range. Now that the thermal throttling is in place, it should be safe to remove the turbo-mode from the 1GHz variants, because the CPU will automatically slow if the thermal limit is reached. Signed-off-by: Adam Ford <redacted> --- V2: The orignal patch had the wrong file added. Add the omap36xx.dtsihmm, I somehow expected that there is a revert of this thing going through. But now, the turbo-mode is still missingtagging by turbo-mode means the OPP is *disabled* by default and needs to be enabled actively.quoted
and I understood the revert is only in Nikolaus' trees.It is just a revert for the gta04a5 because I think it is the only board which is affected (maybe it would need SmartReflex in operation to fine tune the OPPs compared to the generic table). Therefore I have a patch which adds turbo-mode to the gta04a5.dtsquoted
The 1Ghz mode was working for some time but does not anymore. Is it just me or do others also have the same problems?That would be interesting to know.What version are you seeing the break? It's working for me on 5.15.y branch # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy0/scaling_available_frequencies 300000 600000 800000 1000000 # uname -a Linux buildroot 5.14.9-00260-g70248e7b378b-dirty #1 SMP Sat Oct 2 06:56:02 CDT 2021 armv7l GNU/Linux #
I see this one: I remember there was also a discussion about proper
handling of that but I do not remember the final result:

Revert "ARM: OMAP2+: Fix warnings with broken omap2_set_init_voltage()"
This reverts commit cf395f7ddb9ebc6b2d28d83b53d18aa4e7c19701.
This patch is in conflict with 1GHz OPP.

ARM: DTS: gta04a5: disable 1GHz OPP again because it is not reliable
To enable on a running system:
echo 1 >/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost
The symptom can be spurious hangs and virtual paging error,
kernel panics and strange things.
on top of 5.13-rcX in Nikolaus trees.
