Subject: [PATCH RFC 2/2] interconnect: qcom: sdm845: Own the ALC BCM to drop its boot vote
Date: Tue, 13 Oct 2026 22:26:11 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261013202611.3070778-3-mick@yoxcu.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261013202611.3070778-1-mick@yoxcu.de>
From: Michael Auer <mick@yoxcu.de>
On the OnePlus 6 the bootloader leaves a vote on the ALC BCM
(rpmh_read() on the APPS DRV returns 0x2000000f). No driver owns this
BCM, so the vote is never removed and the SoC never reaches AOSS sleep
or CX collapse (qcom_stats aosd and cxsd stay at 0).
Add a node without consumers for the ALC BCM on mem_noc. The provider
then owns the BCM and drops the vote at sync_state.
With this change ALC reads 0 after boot and suspend reaches CX
collapse. The average current in an idle push standby test (Wi-Fi on)
was 35.6 mA, against 43.7 mA with the ALC vote kept in the sleep set.
