Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The majority of changes go into the cpufreq subsystem this time.
To me, quite obviously, the biggest ticket item is the new "schedutil"
governor. Interestingly enough, it's the first new cpufreq governor
since the beginning of the git era (except for some out-of-the-tree
ones).
There are two main differences between it and the existing governors.
First, it uses the information provided by the scheduler directly for
making its decisions, so it doesn't have to track anything by itself.
Second, it can invoke drivers (supporting that feature) to adjust CPU
performance right away without having to spawn work items to be
executed in process context or similar. Currently, the acpi-cpufreq
driver is the only one supporting that mode of operation, but then it
is used on a large number of systems.
The "schedutil" governor as included here is very simple and mostly
regarded as a foundation for future work on the integration of the
scheduler with CPU power management (in fact, there is work in
progress on top of it already). Nevertheless it works and the
preliminary results obtained with it are encouraging.
There also is some consolidation of CPU frequency management for ARM
platforms that can add their machine IDs the the new stub dt-platdev
driver now and that will take care of creating the requisite platform
device for cpufreq-dt, so it is not necessary to do that in platform
code any more. Several ARM platforms are switched over to using this
generic mechanism.
In addition to that, the intel_pstate driver is now going to respect
CPU frequency limits set by the platform firmware (or a BMC) and
provided via the ACPI _PPC object.
The devfreq subsystem is getting a new "passive" governor for SoCs
subsystems that will depend on somebody else to manage their voltage
rails and its support for Samsung Exynos SoCs is consolidated.
The rest is support for new hardware (Intel Broxton support in
intel_idle for one example), bug fixes, optimizations and cleanups in
a number of places.
Specifics:
- New cpufreq "schedutil" governor (making decisions based on CPU
utilization information provided by the scheduler and capable of
switching CPU frequencies right away if the underlying driver
supports that) and support for fast frequency switching in the
acpi-cpufreq driver (Rafael Wysocki)
- Consolidation of CPU frequency management on ARM platforms allowing
them to get rid of some platform-specific boilerplate code if they
are going to use the cpufreq-dt driver (Viresh Kumar, Finley Xiao,
Marc Gonzalez)

driver (Srinivas Pandruvada)

- Assorted cpufreq driver updates (Ashwin Chaugule, Geliang Tang,

- Assorted cpufreq fixes and cleanups (Joe Perches, Arnd Bergmann)
- Fixes and cleanups in the OPP (Operating Performance Points)
framework, mostly related to OPP sharing, and reorganization of
OF-dependent code in it (Viresh Kumar, Arnd Bergmann, Sudeep Holla)
- New "passive" governor for devfreq (for SoC subsystems that will
rely on someone else for the management of their power resources)
and consolidation of devfreq support for Exynos platforms, coding
style and typo fixes for devfreq (Chanwoo Choi, MyungJoo Ham)
- PM core fixes and cleanups, mostly to make it work better with the
generic power domains (genpd) framework, and updates for that
framework (Ulf Hansson, Thierry Reding, Colin Ian King)
- Intel Broxton support for the intel_idle driver (Len Brown)

The core_pct_busy field of struct sample actually contains the
average performace during the last sampling period (in percent)
and not the utilization of the core as suggested by its name
which is confusing.
For this reason, change the name of that field to core_avg_perf
and rename the function that computes its value accordingly.
Also notice that storing this value as percentage requires a costly
integer multiplication to be carried out in a hot path, so instead
store it as an "extended fixed point" value with more fraction bits
and update the code using it accordingly (it is better to change the
name of the field along with its meaning in one go than to make those
two changes separately, as that would likely lead to more
confusion).

Currently, in intel_pstate_clear_update_util_hook(), after
clearing the utilization update hook, we leverage
synchronize_sched() to deal with synchronization, which
is a little bit time-costly because synchronize_sched()
has to wait for all the CPUs to go through a grace period.
Actually, the synchronize_sched() is not necessary if the utilization
update hook has not been set for the given CPU yet, so make the driver
check if that's the case and avoid the synchronize_sched() call then.

- Calling smp_call_function_any() with interrupt disabled (through
spin_lock_irqsave) could cause a deadlock, as smp_call_function_any()
relies on the IPI to complete. This is detected in the
smp_call_function_any() call and hence the WARN_ON.
- As the spinlock (gpstates->lock) is only used to synchronize access of
global_pstate_info between timer irq handler and target_index calls. And
the timer irq handler just try_locks() hence it would not cause a
deadlock. Hence could do without making spinlocks irq safe.
- As the smp_call_function_any() is a blocking call and does not access
global_pstates_info, it could reduce the critcal section by moving
smp_call_function_any() after giving up the lock.

cpufreq: st: enable selective initialization based on the platform
cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix processing for turbo activation ratio
|

As reported in KBZ 69821:
"With CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC=y cpu stays at the lowest frequcency 800MHz
even if usage goes to 100%, frequency does not scale up, the governor
in use is ondemand. Neither works conservative. Performance and
userspace governors work as expected.
With CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE or CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL cpu scales up with ondemand
as expected."
Analysis carried out by Chen Yu leads to the conclusion that the
observed issue is due to idle_time in dbs_update() representing a
negative number in which case the function will return 0 as the load
(unless load is greater than 0 for another CPU sharing the policy),
although that need not be the right choice.
Indeed, idle_time representing a negative number means that during
the last sampling interval the CPU was almost 100% busy on the rough
average, so 100 should be returned as the load in that case.
Modify the code accordingly and rearrange it to clarify the handling
of all of the special cases in it. While at it, also avoid returning
zero as the load if time_elapsed is 0 (it doesn't really make sense
to return 0 then).

Currently when performing random CPU hot-plugs and suspend-to-ram(S2R)
on systems using arm_big_little cpufreq driver, we get warnings similar
to something like below:
cpu cpu1: _opp_add: duplicate OPPs detected. Existing: freq: 600000000,
volt: 800000, enabled: 1. New: freq: 600000000, volt: 800000, enabled: 1
This is mainly because the OPPs for the shared cpus are not set. We can
just use dev_pm_opp_of_cpumask_add_table in case the OPPs are obtained
from DT(arm_big_little_dt.c) or use dev_pm_opp_set_sharing_cpus if the
OPPs are obtained by other means like firmware(e.g. scpi-cpufreq.c)
Also now that the generic dev_pm_opp{,_of}_cpumask_remove_table can
handle removal of opp table and entries for all associated CPUs, we can
re-use dev_pm_opp{,_of}_cpumask_remove_table as free_opp_table in
cpufreq_arm_bL_ops.
This patch makes necessary changes to reuse the generic OPP functions for
{init,free}_opp_table and thereby eliminating the warnings.

Currently, the userspace governor only updates frequency on GOV_LIMITS
if policy->cur falls outside policy->{min/max}. However, it is also
necessary to update current frequency on GOV_LIMITS to match the user
requested value if it can be achieved within the new policy->{max/min}.
This was previously the behaviour in the governor until commit d1922f0
("cpufreq: Simplify userspace governor") which incorrectly assumed that
policy->cur == user requested frequency via scaling_setspeed. This won't
be true if the user requested frequency falls outside policy->{min/max}.
Ex: a temporary thermal cap throttled the user requested frequency.
Fix this by storing the user requested frequency in a seperate variable.
The governor will then try to achieve this request on every GOV_LIMITS
change.

After commit 8fa520af5081 "intel_pstate: Remove freq calculation from
intel_pstate_calc_busy()" intel_pstate_get() calls get_avg_frequency()
to compute the average frequency, which is problematic for two reasons.
First, intel_pstate_get() may be invoked before the driver reads the
CPU feedback registers for the first time and if that happens,
get_avg_frequency() will attempt to divide by zero.
Second, the get_avg_frequency() call in intel_pstate_get() is racy
with respect to intel_pstate_sample() and it may end up returning
completely meaningless values for this reason.
Moreover, after commit 7349ec0470b6 "intel_pstate: Move
intel_pstate_calc_busy() into get_target_pstate_use_performance()"
sample.core_pct_busy is never computed on Atom, but it is used in
intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate() in that case too.
To address those problems notice that if sample.core_pct_busy
was used in the average frequency computation carried out by
get_avg_frequency(), both the divide by zero problem and the
race with respect to intel_pstate_sample() would be avoided.
Accordingly, move the invocation of intel_pstate_calc_busy() from
get_target_pstate_use_performance() to intel_pstate_update_util(),
which also will take care of the uninitialized sample.core_pct_busy
on Atom, and modify get_avg_frequency() to use sample.core_pct_busy
as per the above.

Commit 41cfd64cf49fc "Update frequencies of policy->cpus only from
->set_policy()" changed the way the intel_pstate driver's ->set_policy
callback updates the HWP (hardware-managed P-states) settings.
A side effect of it is that if those settings are modified on the
boot CPU during system suspend and wakeup, they will never be
restored during subsequent system resume.
To address this problem, allow cpufreq drivers that don't provide
->target or ->target_index callbacks to use ->suspend and ->resume
callbacks and add a ->resume callback to intel_pstate to restore
the HWP settings on the CPUs that belong to the given policy.

The name of the prev_cpu_wall field in struct cpu_dbs_info is
confusing, because it doesn't represent wall time, but the previous
update time as returned by get_cpu_idle_time() (that may be the
current value of jiffies_64 in some cases, for example).
Moreover, the names of some related variables in dbs_update() take
that confusion further.
Rename all of those things to make their names reflect the purpose
more accurately. While at it, drop unnecessary parens from one of
the updated expressions.

When policy->max is changed via _PPC or sysfs and is more than the max non
turbo frequency, it does not really change resulting performance in some
processors. When policy->max results in a P-State ratio more than the
turbo activation ratio, then processor can choose any P-State up to max
turbo. So the user or _PPC setting has no value, but this can cause
undesirable side effects like:
- Showing reduced max percentage in Intel P-State sysfs
- It can cause reduced max performance under certain boundary conditions:
The requested max scaling frequency either via _PPC or via cpufreq-sysfs,
will be converted into a fixed floating point max percent scale. In
majority of the cases this will result in correct max. But not 100% of the
time. If the _PPC is requested at a point where the calculation lead to a
lower max, this can result in a lower P-State then expected and it will
impact performance.

Now set the config TDP level 1 ratio as 0x0b (equivalent to 1100000KHz)
in BIOS (not every system will let you adjust this).
The turbo activation ratio will be set to one less than that, which will
be 0x0a (So any request above 1000000KHz should result in turbo region
assuming no thermal limits).
Here _PPC will request max to 1100000KHz (which basically should still
result in turbo as this is more than the turbo activation ratio up to
max allowable turbo frequency), but actual calculation resulted in a max
ceiling P-State which is 0x0a. So under any load condition, this driver
will not request turbo P-States. This will be a huge performance hit.
When config TDP feature is ON, if the _PPC points to a frequency above
turbo activation ratio, the performance can still reach max turbo. In this
case we don't need to treat this as the reduced frequency in set_policy
callback.
In this change when config TDP is active (by checking if the physical max
non turbo ratio is more than the current max non turbo ratio), any request
above current max non turbo is treated as full performance.

Use ACPI _PPC notification to limit max P state driver will request.
ACPI _PPC change notification is sent by BIOS to limit max P state
in several cases:
- Reduce impact of platform thermal condition
- When Config TDP feature is used, a changed _PPC is sent to
follow TDP change
- Remote node managers in server want to control platform power
via baseboard management controller (BMC)
This change registers with ACPI processor performance lib so that
_PPC changes are notified to cpufreq core, which in turns will
result in call to .setpolicy() callback. Also the way _PSS
table identifies a turbo frequency is not compatible to max turbo
frequency in intel_pstate, so the very first entry in _PSS needs
to be adjusted.
This feature can be turned on by using kernel parameters:

The frequency transition latency from pmin to pmax is observed to be in
few millisecond granurality. And it usually happens to take a performance
penalty during sudden frequency rampup requests.
This patch set solves this problem by using an entity called "global
pstates". The global pstate is a Chip-level entity, so the global entitiy
(Voltage) is managed across the cores. The local pstate is a Core-level
entity, so the local entity (frequency) is managed across threads.
This patch brings down global pstate at a slower rate than the local
pstate. Hence by holding global pstates higher than local pstate makes
the subsequent rampups faster.
A per policy structure is maintained to keep track of the global and
local pstate changes. The global pstate is brought down using a parabolic
equation. The ramp down time to pmin is set to ~5 seconds. To make sure
that the global pstates are dropped at regular interval , a timer is
queued for every 2 seconds during ramp-down phase, which eventually brings
the pstate down to local pstate.
Iozone results show fairly consistent performance boost.
YCSB on redis shows improved Max latencies in most cases.
Iozone write/rewite test were made with filesizes 200704Kb and 401408Kb

of throttle sysfs files. Instead of this use 'kernfs_find_and_get()' to
check if the attribute already exists. This is required as
policy->driver_data is used for other purposes in the later patch.

When the config TDP level is not nominal (level = 0), the MSR values for
reading level 1 and level 2 ratios contain power in low 14 bits and actual
ratio bits are at bits [23:16]. The current processing for level 1 and
level 2 is wrong as there is no shift done to get actual ratio.

The way cpufreq_governor_start() initializes j_cdbs->prev_load is
questionable.
First off, j_cdbs->prev_cpu_wall used as a denominator in the
computation may be zero. The case this happens is when
get_cpu_idle_time_us() returns -1 and get_cpu_idle_time_jiffy()
used to return that number is called exactly at the jiffies_64
wrap time. It is rather hard to trigger that error, but it is not
impossible and it will just crash the kernel then.
Second, j_cdbs->prev_load is computed as the average load during
the entire time since the system started and it may not reflect the
load in the previous sampling period (as it is expected to).
That doesn't play well with the way dbs_update() uses that value.
Namely, if the update time delta (wall_time) happens do be greater
than twice the sampling rate on the first invocation of it, the
initial value of j_cdbs->prev_load (which may be completely off) will
be returned to the caller as the current load (unless it is equal to
zero and unless another CPU sharing the same policy object has a
greater load value).
For this reason, notice that the prev_load field of struct cpu_dbs_info
is only used by dbs_update() and only in that one place, so if
cpufreq_governor_start() is modified to always initialize it to 0,
it will make dbs_update() always compute the actual load first time
it checks the update time delta against the doubled sampling rate
(after initialization) and there won't be any side effects of it.
Consequently, modify cpufreq_governor_start() as described.
