UPF Signoff Dashboard: Review Checklist

Review Checklist for UPF Signoff Dashboard.

Review checklist

Review Checklist for UPF Signoff Dashboard focuses on open LP violations, waiver aging, and closure trend by subsystem. The goal is to link observed behavior to power-intent mechanism, ownership, and release risk.

Failing transition and states are explicitly documented.
Policy binding is proven in reports and waveform context.
Crossing inventory matches isolation/retention/shifter strategy.
UPF revision tags are aligned across flow stages.
Waiver status includes owner, expiry, and rollback criteria.
Owners signed: low-power lead, program manager, signoff owner.

Sign-off ownership

OWNERSHIP MAP — UPF Signoff Dashboard

artifact              owner
----------------      -----------------
intent policy       low-power lead
implementation      program manager
verification        signoff owner

Escapes happen when ownership is implicit.

Low-power deep dive

Mode transition IR and ownership clarity determine tapeout confidence.

Reports and artifacts

domain grid report
dynamic IR analysis
LP signoff dashboard
handoff owner matrix

Mini case study

Dynamic IR during wake-up, not static IR, was the true blocker for release.

Debug branches

Inspect transition waveforms
Check PMU schedule alignment
Escalate aged waivers

Senior review question

Ask: what transition evidence proves this topic is closed, and which owner signs it?

Key takeaways

State transition context must accompany every low-power metric claim.
Intent changes require simulation, formal, and implementation re-validation.

Common pitfalls

Comparing results from mismatched UPF revisions.
Assuming static checks replace transition validation.
Shipping with aged waivers and unclear ownership.

Execution drill pack 1

Use this pack to rehearse low-power closure on low-power/pd-power-integration/upf-signoff-dashboard/checklist: transition framing, policy ownership, implementation evidence, and release confidence.

Transition checklist

State transition explicitly named with legal source/target states.
Crossing and domain ownership are mapped and agreed.
Policy controls are traced to always-on source logic.
Waveform bookmarks align controls with state timestamps.

Review prompts

Which policy object is first to deviate from intent?
Which owner can apply the smallest reversible fix?
What regression matrix proves no collateral damage?
Which waiver conditions would still block release?
