commit b3cbdcc191819b75c04178142e2d0d4c668f68c0 upstream.
Odroid-C1 uses a Monolithic Power Systems MP2161 controlled via PWM for the VDDEE voltage supply of the Meson8b SoC. Commit 6b9352f3f8a1 ("pwm: meson: modify and simplify calculation in meson_pwm_get_state") results in my Odroid-C1 crashing with memory corruption in many different places (seemingly at random). It turns out that this is due to a currently not supported corner case.
The VDDEE regulator can generate between 860mV (duty cycle of ~91%) and 1140mV (duty cycle of 0%). We consider it to be enabled by the bootloader (which is why it has the regulator-boot-on flag in .dts) as well as being always-on (which is why it has the regulator-always-on flag in .dts) because the VDDEE voltage is generally required for the Meson8b SoC to work. The public S805 datasheet [0] states on page 17 (where "A5" refers to the Cortex-A5 CPU cores): [...] So if EE domains is shut off, A5 memory is also shut off. That does not matter. Before EE power domain is shut off, A5 should be shut off at first.
It turns out that at least some bootloader versions are keeping the PWM output disabled. This is not a problem due to the specific design of the regulator: when the PWM output is disabled the output pin is pulled LOW, effectively achieving a 0% duty cycle (which in return means that VDDEE voltage is at 1140mV).
The problem comes when the pwm-regulator driver tries to initialize the PWM output. To do so it reads the current state from the hardware, which is: period: 3666ns duty cycle: 3333ns (= ~91%) enabled: false Then those values are translated using the continuous voltage range to 860mV. Later, when the regulator is being enabled (either by the regulator core due to the always-on flag or first consumer - in this case the lima driver for the Mali-450 GPU) the pwm-regulator driver tries to keep the voltage (at 860mV) and just enable the PWM output. This is when things start to go wrong as the typical voltage used for VDDEE is 1100mV.
Commit 6b9352f3f8a1 ("pwm: meson: modify and simplify calculation in meson_pwm_get_state") triggers above condition as before that change period and duty cycle were both at 0. Since the change to the pwm-meson driver is considered correct the solution is to be found in the pwm-regulator driver. Update the duty cycle during driver probe if the regulator is flagged as boot-on so that a call to pwm_regulator_enable() (by the regulator core during initialization of a regulator flagged with boot-on) without any preceding call to pwm_regulator_set_voltage() does not change the output voltage.
