Hi All,

I am working on power handling in custom board similar to the imx6qdl-sabresd.

details: yacto setup, 3.14.28 kernel version, pfuze100.

When i use "echo standby > /sys/power/state " it is resuming properly. (accelerometer, uart interrupts i used).

But when i am using  "echo mem > /sys/power/state " it is rebooting if i am giving interrupt.

And i observed that  accelerometer interrupt is working when i install wifi modules.

If i install wifi modules and if i am using "mem" mode it is rebooting after some time.

if i am not installing wifi modules it's hanging if i give "mem".

I want it should resume instead of reboot when  accelerometer or uart interrupt occurs.

But in older kernel version-3.0.35 it's working fine.

From thread i.MX6DL LPDDR2 Support for L3.0.35_4.0.0  there is patches for suspend mode or low power mode to work properly.

Is there any patches like this for kernel version 3.14.28. my issue is similar to this https://community.nxp.com/message/861327  thread.

Thanks & Regards,

Lavanya

Hi,

We can change the VDDCORE SW1AB from PMIC are increasing in DSM mode from 1.16 to 1.36 instead of reducing to 0.9V by writing the Related value in to the PMIC driver probe function in STBY registers of PMIC.

Thanks,

Lavanya

Hi All,

I observed that VDDCORE SW1AB from PMIC are increasing in DSM mode from 1.16 to 1.36 instead of reducing to 0.9V.

my requirement is this should reduce when device enter in to DSM(Deep Sleep Mode).

Thanks

Hello,

  The mem mode ("echo mem > /sys/power/state ") relates to the  DORMANT mode.

Please check Your DTB - If there is "fsl,enable-lpsr" defined in DTB ocrams node, mem is
mapped to LPSR mode and all the blocks in the system are put into power off state.
Total system POR is needed in such case.

   Also, please verify LPDDR2 initialization, using the recent Aid tool.

Have a great day,
Yuri

Hi Yuri Muhin,

 

I have solved the reboot issue with ldo_bypass_enable=<1>; in dts file. Previous case it is ldo_bypass_enable=<0>;.

 

Now after changing to ldo_bypass_enable=<1> it's resuming properly, But my VDDCORE(VDDARM_IN) is still 1.36V it should reduce to 0.9V.

where i need to change this one.

 

Thanks

Hi All,

I observed that

"VDDARM_IN and VDDSOC_IN are not dropping to
0.9V when asserting the PMIC_STBY_REQ" But PMIC_STBY_REQ assertion and de assertion
is  happening when "echo mem > /sys/power/state ".
