what about the following patch(not a proper one, just RFC)? It achieves
the same (if not better) precision (on n900 at least) without using
atomic pwm. What it does is: create a fifo thread in which we swicth pwm
on/off, start hrtimer that is used to signal thread when to switch pwm.
As signal comes earlier than needed(because hrtimer runs async to the
thread), we do a busy loop wait for the precise time to switch the pwm.
At least on n900, this busy loop is less than 200 us per switch(worst
case, usually it is less than 100 us). That way, even if we have some
latency spike, it is covered by not doing busy loop for that particular
pwm switch and we keep the precise timing.
Maybe we shall merge both patches so fifo thread to be used for sleeping
pwms and hrtimer for atomic. I can do that and test it here if you think
that approach makes sense.
Regards,
Ivo
PS: I have a patch that converts timer-ti-dm to non-sleeping one, will
send it when it comes to it.
