+Description:
+ Enable passing additional variables for synthetic uevents that
+ are generated by writing /sys/.../uevent file.
+
+ Recognized extended format is ACTION [UUID [KEY=VALUE ...].
+
+ The ACTION is compulsory - it is the name of the uevent action
+ ("add", "change", "remove"). There is no change compared to
+ previous functionality here. The rest of the extended format
+ is optional.
+
+ You need to pass UUID first before any KEY=VALUE pairs.
+ The UUID must be in "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"
+ format where 'x' is a hex digit. The UUID is considered to be
+ a transaction identifier so it's possible to use the same UUID
+ value for one or more synthetic uevents in which case we
+ logically group these uevents together for any userspace
+ listeners. The UUID value appears in uevent as
+ "SYNTH_UUID=xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx" environment
+ variable.
+
+ If UUID is not passed in, the generated synthetic uevent gains
+ "SYNTH_UUID=0" environment variable automatically.
+
+ The KEY=VALUE pairs can contain alphanumeric characters only.
+ It's possible to define zero or more pairs - each pair is then
+ delimited by a space character ' '. Each pair appears in
+ synthetic uevent as "SYNTH_ARG_KEY=VALUE". That means the KEY
+ name gains "SYNTH_ARG_" prefix to avoid possible collisions
+ with existing variables.
+
+ Example of valid sequence written to the uevent file:
+
+ add fe4d7c9d-b8c6-4a70-9ef1-3d8a58d18eed A=1 B=abc
+
+ This generates synthetic uevent including these variables:
+
+ ACTION=add
+ SYNTH_ARG_A=1
+ SYNTH_ARG_B=abc
+ SYNTH_UUID=fe4d7c9d-b8c6-4a70-9ef1-3d8a58d18eed

-
-The rcutree and rcutiny implementations of RCU provide debugfs trace
-output that summarizes counters and state. This information is useful for
-debugging RCU itself, and can sometimes also help to debug abuses of RCU.
-The following sections describe the debugfs files and formats, first
-for rcutree and next for rcutiny.
-
-
-CONFIG_TREE_RCU and CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU debugfs Files and Formats
-
-These implementations of RCU provide several debugfs directories under the
-top-level directory "rcu":
-
-rcu/rcu_bh
-rcu/rcu_preempt
-rcu/rcu_sched
-
-Each directory contains files for the corresponding flavor of RCU.
-Note that rcu/rcu_preempt is only present for CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU.
-For CONFIG_TREE_RCU, the RCU flavor maps onto the RCU-sched flavor,
-so that activity for both appears in rcu/rcu_sched.
-
-In addition, the following file appears in the top-level directory:
-rcu/rcutorture. This file displays rcutorture test progress. The output
-of "cat rcu/rcutorture" looks as follows:
-
-rcutorture test sequence: 0 (test in progress)
-rcutorture update version number: 615
-
-The first line shows the number of rcutorture tests that have completed
-since boot. If a test is currently running, the "(test in progress)"
-string will appear as shown above. The second line shows the number of
-update cycles that the current test has started, or zero if there is
-no test in progress.
-
-
-Within each flavor directory (rcu/rcu_bh, rcu/rcu_sched, and possibly
-also rcu/rcu_preempt) the following files will be present:
-
-rcudata:
- Displays fields in struct rcu_data.
-rcuexp:
- Displays statistics for expedited grace periods.
-rcugp:
- Displays grace-period counters.
-rcuhier:
- Displays the struct rcu_node hierarchy.
-rcu_pending:
- Displays counts of the reasons rcu_pending() decided that RCU had
- work to do.

-
-This file has one line per CPU, or eight for this 8-CPU system.
-The fields are as follows:
-
-o The number at the beginning of each line is the CPU number.
- CPUs numbers followed by an exclamation mark are offline,
- but have been online at least once since boot. There will be
- no output for CPUs that have never been online, which can be
- a good thing in the surprisingly common case where NR_CPUS is
- substantially larger than the number of actual CPUs.
-
-o "c" is the count of grace periods that this CPU believes have
- completed. Offlined CPUs and CPUs in dynticks idle mode may lag
- quite a ways behind, for example, CPU 4 under "rcu_sched" above,
- which has been offline through 16 RCU grace periods. It is not
- unusual to see offline CPUs lagging by thousands of grace periods.
- Note that although the grace-period number is an unsigned long,
- it is printed out as a signed long to allow more human-friendly
- representation near boot time.
-
-o "g" is the count of grace periods that this CPU believes have
- started. Again, offlined CPUs and CPUs in dynticks idle mode
- may lag behind. If the "c" and "g" values are equal, this CPU
- has already reported a quiescent state for the last RCU grace
- period that it is aware of, otherwise, the CPU believes that it
- owes RCU a quiescent state.
-
-o "pq" indicates that this CPU has passed through a quiescent state
- for the current grace period. It is possible for "pq" to be
- "1" and "c" different than "g", which indicates that although
- the CPU has passed through a quiescent state, either (1) this
- CPU has not yet reported that fact, (2) some other CPU has not
- yet reported for this grace period, or (3) both.
-
-o "qp" indicates that RCU still expects a quiescent state from
- this CPU. Offlined CPUs and CPUs in dyntick idle mode might
- well have qp=1, which is OK: RCU is still ignoring them.
-
-o "dt" is the current value of the dyntick counter that is incremented
- when entering or leaving idle, either due to a context switch or
- due to an interrupt. This number is even if the CPU is in idle
- from RCU's viewpoint and odd otherwise. The number after the
- first "/" is the interrupt nesting depth when in idle state,
- or a large number added to the interrupt-nesting depth when
- running a non-idle task. Some architectures do not accurately
- count interrupt nesting when running in non-idle kernel context,
- which can result in interesting anomalies such as negative
- interrupt-nesting levels. The number after the second "/"
- is the NMI nesting depth.
-
-o "df" is the number of times that some other CPU has forced a
- quiescent state on behalf of this CPU due to this CPU being in
- idle state.
-
-o "of" is the number of times that some other CPU has forced a
- quiescent state on behalf of this CPU due to this CPU being
- offline. In a perfect world, this might never happen, but it
- turns out that offlining and onlining a CPU can take several grace
- periods, and so there is likely to be an extended period of time
- when RCU believes that the CPU is online when it really is not.
- Please note that erring in the other direction (RCU believing a
- CPU is offline when it is really alive and kicking) is a fatal
- error, so it makes sense to err conservatively.
-
-o "ql" is the number of RCU callbacks currently residing on
- this CPU. The first number is the number of "lazy" callbacks
- that are known to RCU to only be freeing memory, and the number
- after the "/" is the total number of callbacks, lazy or not.
- These counters count callbacks regardless of what phase of
- grace-period processing that they are in (new, waiting for
- grace period to start, waiting for grace period to end, ready
- to invoke).
-
-o "qs" gives an indication of the state of the callback queue
- with four characters:
-
- "N" Indicates that there are callbacks queued that are not
- ready to be handled by the next grace period, and thus
- will be handled by the grace period following the next
- one.
-
- "R" Indicates that there are callbacks queued that are
- ready to be handled by the next grace period.
-
- "W" Indicates that there are callbacks queued that are
- waiting on the current grace period.
-
- "D" Indicates that there are callbacks queued that have
- already been handled by a prior grace period, and are
- thus waiting to be invoked. Note that callbacks in
- the process of being invoked are not counted here.
- Callbacks in the process of being invoked are those
- that have been removed from the rcu_data structures
- queues by rcu_do_batch(), but which have not yet been
- invoked.
-
- If there are no callbacks in a given one of the above states,
- the corresponding character is replaced by ".".
-
-o "b" is the batch limit for this CPU. If more than this number
- of RCU callbacks is ready to invoke, then the remainder will
- be deferred.
-
-o "ci" is the number of RCU callbacks that have been invoked for
- this CPU. Note that ci+nci+ql is the number of callbacks that have
- been registered in absence of CPU-hotplug activity.
-
-o "nci" is the number of RCU callbacks that have been offloaded from
- this CPU. This will always be zero unless the kernel was built
- with CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y and the "rcu_nocbs=" kernel boot
- parameter was specified.
-
-o "co" is the number of RCU callbacks that have been orphaned due to
- this CPU going offline. These orphaned callbacks have been moved
- to an arbitrarily chosen online CPU.
-
-o "ca" is the number of RCU callbacks that have been adopted by this
- CPU due to other CPUs going offline. Note that ci+co-ca+ql is
- the number of RCU callbacks registered on this CPU.
-

-
-The output of "cat rcu/rcu_preempt/rcuexp" looks as follows:
-
-s=21872 wd1=0 wd2=0 wd3=5 enq=0 sc=21872
-
-These fields are as follows:
-
-o "s" is the sequence number, with an odd number indicating that
- an expedited grace period is in progress.
-
-o "wd1", "wd2", and "wd3" are the number of times that an attempt
- to start an expedited grace period found that someone else had
- completed an expedited grace period that satisfies the attempted
- request. "Our work is done."
-
-o "enq" is the number of quiescent states still outstanding.
-
-o "sc" is the number of times that the attempt to start a
- new expedited grace period succeeded.
-
-
-The output of "cat rcu/rcu_preempt/rcugp" looks as follows:
-
-completed=31249 gpnum=31250 age=1 max=18
-
-These fields are taken from the rcu_state structure, and are as follows:
-
-o "completed" is the number of grace periods that have completed.
- It is comparable to the "c" field from rcu/rcudata in that a
- CPU whose "c" field matches the value of "completed" is aware
- that the corresponding RCU grace period has completed.
-
-o "gpnum" is the number of grace periods that have started. It is
- similarly comparable to the "g" field from rcu/rcudata in that
- a CPU whose "g" field matches the value of "gpnum" is aware that
- the corresponding RCU grace period has started.
-
- If these two fields are equal, then there is no grace period
- in progress, in other words, RCU is idle. On the other hand,
- if the two fields differ (as they are above), then an RCU grace
- period is in progress.
-
-o "age" is the number of jiffies that the current grace period
- has extended for, or zero if there is no grace period currently
- in effect.
-
-o "max" is the age in jiffies of the longest-duration grace period
- thus far.
-
-The output of "cat rcu/rcu_preempt/rcuhier" looks as follows:
-
-c=14407 g=14408 s=0 jfq=2 j=c863 nfqs=12040/nfqsng=0(12040) fqlh=1051 oqlen=0/0
-3/3 ..>. 0:7 ^0
-e/e ..>. 0:3 ^0 d/d ..>. 4:7 ^1
-
-The fields are as follows:
-
-o "c" is exactly the same as "completed" under rcu/rcu_preempt/rcugp.
-
-o "g" is exactly the same as "gpnum" under rcu/rcu_preempt/rcugp.
-
-o "s" is the current state of the force_quiescent_state()
- state machine.
-
-o "jfq" is the number of jiffies remaining for this grace period
- before force_quiescent_state() is invoked to help push things
- along. Note that CPUs in idle mode throughout the grace period
- will not report on their own, but rather must be check by some
- other CPU via force_quiescent_state().
-
-o "j" is the low-order four hex digits of the jiffies counter.
- Yes, Paul did run into a number of problems that turned out to
- be due to the jiffies counter no longer counting. Why do you ask?
-
-o "nfqs" is the number of calls to force_quiescent_state() since
- boot.
-
-o "nfqsng" is the number of useless calls to force_quiescent_state(),
- where there wasn't actually a grace period active. This can
- no longer happen due to grace-period processing being pushed
- into a kthread. The number in parentheses is the difference
- between "nfqs" and "nfqsng", or the number of times that
- force_quiescent_state() actually did some real work.
-
-o "fqlh" is the number of calls to force_quiescent_state() that
- exited immediately (without even being counted in nfqs above)
- due to contention on ->fqslock.
-
-o Each element of the form "3/3 ..>. 0:7 ^0" represents one rcu_node
- structure. Each line represents one level of the hierarchy,
- from root to leaves. It is best to think of the rcu_data
- structures as forming yet another level after the leaves.
- Note that there might be either one, two, three, or even four
- levels of rcu_node structures, depending on the relationship
- between CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT, CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_LEAF (possibly
- adjusted using the rcu_fanout_leaf kernel boot parameter), and
- CONFIG_NR_CPUS (possibly adjusted using the nr_cpu_ids count of
- possible CPUs for the booting hardware).
-
- o The numbers separated by the "/" are the qsmask followed
- by the qsmaskinit. The qsmask will have one bit
- set for each entity in the next lower level that has
- not yet checked in for the current grace period ("e"
- indicating CPUs 5, 6, and 7 in the example above).
- The qsmaskinit will have one bit for each entity that is
- currently expected to check in during each grace period.
- The value of qsmaskinit is assigned to that of qsmask
- at the beginning of each grace period.
-
- o The characters separated by the ">" indicate the state
- of the blocked-tasks lists. A "G" preceding the ">"
- indicates that at least one task blocked in an RCU
- read-side critical section blocks the current grace
- period, while a "E" preceding the ">" indicates that
- at least one task blocked in an RCU read-side critical
- section blocks the current expedited grace period.
- A "T" character following the ">" indicates that at
- least one task is blocked within an RCU read-side
- critical section, regardless of whether any current
- grace period (expedited or normal) is inconvenienced.
- A "." character appears if the corresponding condition
- does not hold, so that "..>." indicates that no tasks
- are blocked. In contrast, "GE>T" indicates maximal
- inconvenience from blocked tasks. CONFIG_TREE_RCU
- builds of the kernel will always show "..>.".
-
- o The numbers separated by the ":" are the range of CPUs
- served by this struct rcu_node. This can be helpful
- in working out how the hierarchy is wired together.
-
- For example, the example rcu_node structure shown above
- has "0:7", indicating that it covers CPUs 0 through 7.
-
- o The number after the "^" indicates the bit in the
- next higher level rcu_node structure that this rcu_node
- structure corresponds to. For example, the "d/d ..>. 4:7
- ^1" has a "1" in this position, indicating that it
- corresponds to the "1" bit in the "3" shown in the
- "3/3 ..>. 0:7 ^0" entry on the next level up.
-

- 7 np=37275 qsp=2 rpq=6873 cbr=0 cng=868 gpc=3416 gps=971 nn=25147 ndw=0
-
-The fields are as follows:
-
-o The leading number is the CPU number, with "!" indicating
- an offline CPU.
-
-o "np" is the number of times that __rcu_pending() has been invoked
- for the corresponding flavor of RCU.
-
-o "qsp" is the number of times that the RCU was waiting for a
- quiescent state from this CPU.
-
-o "rpq" is the number of times that the CPU had passed through
- a quiescent state, but not yet reported it to RCU.
-
-o "cbr" is the number of times that this CPU had RCU callbacks
- that had passed through a grace period, and were thus ready
- to be invoked.
-
-o "cng" is the number of times that this CPU needed another
- grace period while RCU was idle.
-
-o "gpc" is the number of times that an old grace period had
- completed, but this CPU was not yet aware of it.
-
-o "gps" is the number of times that a new grace period had started,
- but this CPU was not yet aware of it.
-
-o "ndw" is the number of times that a wakeup of an rcuo
- callback-offload kthread had to be deferred in order to avoid
- deadlock.
-
-o "nn" is the number of times that this CPU needed nothing.
-
-
-The output of "cat rcu/rcuboost" looks as follows:
-
-0:3 tasks=.... kt=W ntb=0 neb=0 nnb=0 j=c864 bt=c894
- balk: nt=0 egt=4695 bt=0 nb=0 ny=56 nos=0
-4:7 tasks=.... kt=W ntb=0 neb=0 nnb=0 j=c864 bt=c894
- balk: nt=0 egt=6541 bt=0 nb=0 ny=126 nos=0
-
-This information is output only for rcu_preempt. Each two-line entry
-corresponds to a leaf rcu_node structure. The fields are as follows:
-
-o "n:m" is the CPU-number range for the corresponding two-line
- entry. In the sample output above, the first entry covers
- CPUs zero through three and the second entry covers CPUs four
- through seven.
-
-o "tasks=TNEB" gives the state of the various segments of the
- rnp->blocked_tasks list:
-
- "T" This indicates that there are some tasks that blocked
- while running on one of the corresponding CPUs while
- in an RCU read-side critical section.
-
- "N" This indicates that some of the blocked tasks are preventing
- the current normal (non-expedited) grace period from
- completing.
-
- "E" This indicates that some of the blocked tasks are preventing
- the current expedited grace period from completing.
-
- "B" This indicates that some of the blocked tasks are in
- need of RCU priority boosting.
-
- Each character is replaced with "." if the corresponding
- condition does not hold.
-
-o "kt" is the state of the RCU priority-boosting kernel
- thread associated with the corresponding rcu_node structure.
- The state can be one of the following:
-
- "S" The kernel thread is stopped, in other words, all
- CPUs corresponding to this rcu_node structure are
- offline.
-
- "R" The kernel thread is running.
-
- "W" The kernel thread is waiting because there is no work
- for it to do.
-
- "Y" The kernel thread is yielding to avoid hogging CPU.
-
- "?" Unknown value, indicates a bug.
-
-o "ntb" is the number of tasks boosted.
-
-o "neb" is the number of tasks boosted in order to complete an
- expedited grace period.
-
-o "nnb" is the number of tasks boosted in order to complete a
- normal (non-expedited) grace period. When boosting a task
- that was blocking both an expedited and a normal grace period,
- it is counted against the expedited total above.
-
-o "j" is the low-order 16 bits of the jiffies counter in
- hexadecimal.
-
-o "bt" is the low-order 16 bits of the value that the jiffies
- counter will have when we next start boosting, assuming that
- the current grace period does not end beforehand. This is
- also in hexadecimal.
-
-o "balk: nt" counts the number of times we didn't boost (in
- other words, we balked) even though it was time to boost because
- there were no blocked tasks to boost. This situation occurs
- when there is one blocked task on one rcu_node structure and
- none on some other rcu_node structure.
-
-o "egt" counts the number of times we balked because although
- there were blocked tasks, none of them were blocking the
- current grace period, whether expedited or otherwise.
-
-o "bt" counts the number of times we balked because boosting
- had already been initiated for the current grace period.
-
-o "nb" counts the number of times we balked because there
- was at least one task blocking the current non-expedited grace
- period that never had blocked. If it is already running, it
- just won't help to boost its priority!
-
-o "ny" counts the number of times we balked because it was
- not yet time to start boosting.
-
-o "nos" counts the number of times we balked for other
- reasons, e.g., the grace period ended first.

-CONFIG_TINY_RCU debugfs Files and Formats
-
-These implementations of RCU provides a single debugfs file under the
-top-level directory RCU, namely rcu/rcudata, which displays fields in
-rcu_bh_ctrlblk and rcu_sched_ctrlblk.
-
-The output of "cat rcu/rcudata" is as follows:
-
-rcu_sched: qlen: 0
-rcu_bh: qlen: 0
-
-This is split into rcu_sched and rcu_bh sections. The field is as
-follows:
-
-o "qlen" is the number of RCU callbacks currently waiting either
- for an RCU grace period or waiting to be invoked. This is the
- only field present for rcu_sched and rcu_bh, due to the
- short-circuiting of grace period in those two cases.

+``intel_pstate`` CPU Performance Scaling Driver
+===============================================
+
+::
+
+ Copyright (c) 2017 Intel Corp., Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
+
+
+General Information
+===================
+
+``intel_pstate`` is a part of the
+:doc:`CPU performance scaling subsystem <cpufreq>` in the Linux kernel
+(``CPUFreq``). It is a scaling driver for the Sandy Bridge and later
+generations of Intel processors. Note, however, that some of those processors
+may not be supported. [To understand ``intel_pstate`` it is necessary to know
+how ``CPUFreq`` works in general, so this is the time to read :doc:`cpufreq` if
+you have not done that yet.]
+
+For the processors supported by ``intel_pstate``, the P-state concept is broader
+than just an operating frequency or an operating performance point (see the
+`LinuxCon Europe 2015 presentation by Kristen Accardi <LCEU2015_>`_ for more
+information about that). For this reason, the representation of P-states used
+by ``intel_pstate`` internally follows the hardware specification (for details
+refer to `Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer’s Manual
+Volume 3: System Programming Guide <SDM_>`_). However, the ``CPUFreq`` core
+uses frequencies for identifying operating performance points of CPUs and
+frequencies are involved in the user space interface exposed by it, so
+``intel_pstate`` maps its internal representation of P-states to frequencies too
+(fortunately, that mapping is unambiguous). At the same time, it would not be
+practical for ``intel_pstate`` to supply the ``CPUFreq`` core with a table of
+available frequencies due to the possible size of it, so the driver does not do
+that. Some functionality of the core is limited by that.
+
+Since the hardware P-state selection interface used by ``intel_pstate`` is
+available at the logical CPU level, the driver always works with individual
+CPUs. Consequently, if ``intel_pstate`` is in use, every ``CPUFreq`` policy
+object corresponds to one logical CPU and ``CPUFreq`` policies are effectively
+equivalent to CPUs. In particular, this means that they become "inactive" every
+time the corresponding CPU is taken offline and need to be re-initialized when
+it goes back online.
+
+``intel_pstate`` is not modular, so it cannot be unloaded, which means that the
+only way to pass early-configuration-time parameters to it is via the kernel
+command line. However, its configuration can be adjusted via ``sysfs`` to a
+great extent. In some configurations it even is possible to unregister it via
+``sysfs`` which allows another ``CPUFreq`` scaling driver to be loaded and
+registered (see `below <status_attr_>`_).
+
+
+Operation Modes
+===============
+
+``intel_pstate`` can operate in three different modes: in the active mode with
+or without hardware-managed P-states support and in the passive mode. Which of
+them will be in effect depends on what kernel command line options are used and
+on the capabilities of the processor.
+
+Active Mode
+-----------
+
+This is the default operation mode of ``intel_pstate``. If it works in this
+mode, the ``scaling_driver`` policy attribute in ``sysfs`` for all ``CPUFreq``
+policies contains the string "intel_pstate".
+
+In this mode the driver bypasses the scaling governors layer of ``CPUFreq`` and
+provides its own scaling algorithms for P-state selection. Those algorithms
+can be applied to ``CPUFreq`` policies in the same way as generic scaling
+governors (that is, through the ``scaling_governor`` policy attribute in
+``sysfs``). [Note that different P-state selection algorithms may be chosen for
+different policies, but that is not recommended.]
+
+They are not generic scaling governors, but their names are the same as the
+names of some of those governors. Moreover, confusingly enough, they generally
+do not work in the same way as the generic governors they share the names with.
+For example, the ``powersave`` P-state selection algorithm provided by
+``intel_pstate`` is not a counterpart of the generic ``powersave`` governor
+(roughly, it corresponds to the ``schedutil`` and ``ondemand`` governors).
+
+There are two P-state selection algorithms provided by ``intel_pstate`` in the
+active mode: ``powersave`` and ``performance``. The way they both operate
+depends on whether or not the hardware-managed P-states (HWP) feature has been
+enabled in the processor and possibly on the processor model.
+
+Which of the P-state selection algorithms is used by default depends on the
+:c:macro:`CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_PERFORMANCE` kernel configuration option.
+Namely, if that option is set, the ``performance`` algorithm will be used by
+default, and the other one will be used by default if it is not set.
+
+Active Mode With HWP
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+If the processor supports the HWP feature, it will be enabled during the
+processor initialization and cannot be disabled after that. It is possible
+to avoid enabling it by passing the ``intel_pstate=no_hwp`` argument to the
+kernel in the command line.
+
+If the HWP feature has been enabled, ``intel_pstate`` relies on the processor to
+select P-states by itself, but still it can give hints to the processor's
+internal P-state selection logic. What those hints are depends on which P-state
+selection algorithm has been applied to the given policy (or to the CPU it
+corresponds to).
+
+Even though the P-state selection is carried out by the processor automatically,
+``intel_pstate`` registers utilization update callbacks with the CPU scheduler
+in this mode. However, they are not used for running a P-state selection
+algorithm, but for periodic updates of the current CPU frequency information to
+be made available from the ``scaling_cur_freq`` policy attribute in ``sysfs``.
+
+HWP + ``performance``
+.....................
+
+In this configuration ``intel_pstate`` will write 0 to the processor's
+Energy-Performance Preference (EPP) knob (if supported) or its
+Energy-Performance Bias (EPB) knob (otherwise), which means that the processor's
+internal P-state selection logic is expected to focus entirely on performance.
+
+This will override the EPP/EPB setting coming from the ``sysfs`` interface
+(see `Energy vs Performance Hints`_ below).
+
+Also, in this configuration the range of P-states available to the processor's
+internal P-state selection logic is always restricted to the upper boundary
+(that is, the maximum P-state that the driver is allowed to use).
+
+HWP + ``powersave``
+...................
+
+In this configuration ``intel_pstate`` will set the processor's
+Energy-Performance Preference (EPP) knob (if supported) or its
+Energy-Performance Bias (EPB) knob (otherwise) to whatever value it was
+previously set to via ``sysfs`` (or whatever default value it was
+set to by the platform firmware). This usually causes the processor's
+internal P-state selection logic to be less performance-focused.
+
+Active Mode Without HWP
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This is the default operation mode for processors that do not support the HWP
+feature. It also is used by default with the ``intel_pstate=no_hwp`` argument
+in the kernel command line. However, in this mode ``intel_pstate`` may refuse
+to work with the given processor if it does not recognize it. [Note that
+``intel_pstate`` will never refuse to work with any processor with the HWP
+feature enabled.]
+
+In this mode ``intel_pstate`` registers utilization update callbacks with the
+CPU scheduler in order to run a P-state selection algorithm, either
+``powersave`` or ``performance``, depending on the ``scaling_cur_freq`` policy
+setting in ``sysfs``. The current CPU frequency information to be made
+available from the ``scaling_cur_freq`` policy attribute in ``sysfs`` is
+periodically updated by those utilization update callbacks too.
+
+``performance``
+...............
+
+Without HWP, this P-state selection algorithm is always the same regardless of
+the processor model and platform configuration.
+
+It selects the maximum P-state it is allowed to use, subject to limits set via
+``sysfs``, every time the P-state selection computations are carried out by the
+driver's utilization update callback for the given CPU (that does not happen
+more often than every 10 ms), but the hardware configuration will not be changed
+if the new P-state is the same as the current one.
+
+This is the default P-state selection algorithm if the
+:c:macro:`CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_PERFORMANCE` kernel configuration option
+is set.
+
+``powersave``
+.............
+
+Without HWP, this P-state selection algorithm generally depends on the
+processor model and/or the system profile setting in the ACPI tables and there
+are two variants of it.
+
+One of them is used with processors from the Atom line and (regardless of the
+processor model) on platforms with the system profile in the ACPI tables set to
+"mobile" (laptops mostly), "tablet", "appliance PC", "desktop", or
+"workstation". It is also used with processors supporting the HWP feature if
+that feature has not been enabled (that is, with the ``intel_pstate=no_hwp``
+argument in the kernel command line). It is similar to the algorithm
+implemented by the generic ``schedutil`` scaling governor except that the
+utilization metric used by it is based on numbers coming from feedback
+registers of the CPU. It generally selects P-states proportional to the
+current CPU utilization, so it is referred to as the "proportional" algorithm.
+
+The second variant of the ``powersave`` P-state selection algorithm, used in all
+of the other cases (generally, on processors from the Core line, so it is
+referred to as the "Core" algorithm), is based on the values read from the APERF
+and MPERF feedback registers and the previously requested target P-state.
+It does not really take CPU utilization into account explicitly, but as a rule
+it causes the CPU P-state to ramp up very quickly in response to increased
+utilization which is generally desirable in server environments.
+
+Regardless of the variant, this algorithm is run by the driver's utilization
+update callback for the given CPU when it is invoked by the CPU scheduler, but
+not more often than every 10 ms (that can be tweaked via ``debugfs`` in `this
+particular case <Tuning Interface in debugfs_>`_). Like in the ``performance``
+case, the hardware configuration is not touched if the new P-state turns out to
+be the same as the current one.
+
+This is the default P-state selection algorithm if the
+:c:macro:`CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_PERFORMANCE` kernel configuration option
+is not set.
+
+Passive Mode
+------------
+
+This mode is used if the ``intel_pstate=passive`` argument is passed to the
+kernel in the command line (it implies the ``intel_pstate=no_hwp`` setting too).
+Like in the active mode without HWP support, in this mode ``intel_pstate`` may
+refuse to work with the given processor if it does not recognize it.
+
+If the driver works in this mode, the ``scaling_driver`` policy attribute in
+``sysfs`` for all ``CPUFreq`` policies contains the string "intel_cpufreq".
+Then, the driver behaves like a regular ``CPUFreq`` scaling driver. That is,
+it is invoked by generic scaling governors when necessary to talk to the
+hardware in order to change the P-state of a CPU (in particular, the
+``schedutil`` governor can invoke it directly from scheduler context).
+
+While in this mode, ``intel_pstate`` can be used with all of the (generic)
+scaling governors listed by the ``scaling_available_governors`` policy attribute
+in ``sysfs`` (and the P-state selection algorithms described above are not
+used). Then, it is responsible for the configuration of policy objects
+corresponding to CPUs and provides the ``CPUFreq`` core (and the scaling
+governors attached to the policy objects) with accurate information on the
+maximum and minimum operating frequencies supported by the hardware (including
+the so-called "turbo" frequency ranges). In other words, in the passive mode
+the entire range of available P-states is exposed by ``intel_pstate`` to the
+``CPUFreq`` core. However, in this mode the driver does not register
+utilization update callbacks with the CPU scheduler and the ``scaling_cur_freq``
+information comes from the ``CPUFreq`` core (and is the last frequency selected
+by the current scaling governor for the given policy).
+
+
+.. _turbo:
+
+Turbo P-states Support
+======================
+
+In the majority of cases, the entire range of P-states available to
+``intel_pstate`` can be divided into two sub-ranges that correspond to
+different types of processor behavior, above and below a boundary that
+will be referred to as the "turbo threshold" in what follows.
+
+The P-states above the turbo threshold are referred to as "turbo P-states" and
+the whole sub-range of P-states they belong to is referred to as the "turbo
+range". These names are related to the Turbo Boost technology allowing a
+multicore processor to opportunistically increase the P-state of one or more
+cores if there is enough power to do that and if that is not going to cause the
+thermal envelope of the processor package to be exceeded.
+
+Specifically, if software sets the P-state of a CPU core within the turbo range
+(that is, above the turbo threshold), the processor is permitted to take over
+performance scaling control for that core and put it into turbo P-states of its
+choice going forward. However, that permission is interpreted differently by
+different processor generations. Namely, the Sandy Bridge generation of
+processors will never use any P-states above the last one set by software for
+the given core, even if it is within the turbo range, whereas all of the later
+processor generations will take it as a license to use any P-states from the
+turbo range, even above the one set by software. In other words, on those
+processors setting any P-state from the turbo range will enable the processor
+to put the given core into all turbo P-states up to and including the maximum
+supported one as it sees fit.
+
+One important property of turbo P-states is that they are not sustainable. More
+precisely, there is no guarantee that any CPUs will be able to stay in any of
+those states indefinitely, because the power distribution within the processor
+package may change over time or the thermal envelope it was designed for might
+be exceeded if a turbo P-state was used for too long.
+
+In turn, the P-states below the turbo threshold generally are sustainable. In
+fact, if one of them is set by software, the processor is not expected to change
+it to a lower one unless in a thermal stress or a power limit violation
+situation (a higher P-state may still be used if it is set for another CPU in
+the same package at the same time, for example).
+
+Some processors allow multiple cores to be in turbo P-states at the same time,
+but the maximum P-state that can be set for them generally depends on the number
+of cores running concurrently. The maximum turbo P-state that can be set for 3
+cores at the same time usually is lower than the analogous maximum P-state for
+2 cores, which in turn usually is lower than the maximum turbo P-state that can
+be set for 1 core. The one-core maximum turbo P-state is thus the maximum
+supported one overall.
+
+The maximum supported turbo P-state, the turbo threshold (the maximum supported
+non-turbo P-state) and the minimum supported P-state are specific to the
+processor model and can be determined by reading the processor's model-specific
+registers (MSRs). Moreover, some processors support the Configurable TDP
+(Thermal Design Power) feature and, when that feature is enabled, the turbo
+threshold effectively becomes a configurable value that can be set by the
+platform firmware.
+
+Unlike ``_PSS`` objects in the ACPI tables, ``intel_pstate`` always exposes
+the entire range of available P-states, including the whole turbo range, to the
+``CPUFreq`` core and (in the passive mode) to generic scaling governors. This
+generally causes turbo P-states to be set more often when ``intel_pstate`` is
+used relative to ACPI-based CPU performance scaling (see `below <acpi-cpufreq_>`_
+for more information).
+
+Moreover, since ``intel_pstate`` always knows what the real turbo threshold is
+(even if the Configurable TDP feature is enabled in the processor), its
+``no_turbo`` attribute in ``sysfs`` (described `below <no_turbo_attr_>`_) should
+work as expected in all cases (that is, if set to disable turbo P-states, it
+always should prevent ``intel_pstate`` from using them).
+
+
+Processor Support
+=================
+
+To handle a given processor ``intel_pstate`` requires a number of different
+pieces of information on it to be known, including:
+
+ * The minimum supported P-state.
+
+ * The maximum supported `non-turbo P-state <turbo_>`_.
+
+ * Whether or not turbo P-states are supported at all.
+
+ * The maximum supported `one-core turbo P-state <turbo_>`_ (if turbo P-states
+ are supported).
+
+ * The scaling formula to translate the driver's internal representation
+ of P-states into frequencies and the other way around.
+
+Generally, ways to obtain that information are specific to the processor model
+or family. Although it often is possible to obtain all of it from the processor
+itself (using model-specific registers), there are cases in which hardware
+manuals need to be consulted to get to it too.
+
+For this reason, there is a list of supported processors in ``intel_pstate`` and
+the driver initialization will fail if the detected processor is not in that
+list, unless it supports the `HWP feature <Active Mode_>`_. [The interface to
+obtain all of the information listed above is the same for all of the processors
+supporting the HWP feature, which is why they all are supported by
+``intel_pstate``.]
+
+
+User Space Interface in ``sysfs``
+=================================
+
+Global Attributes
+-----------------
+
+``intel_pstate`` exposes several global attributes (files) in ``sysfs`` to
+control its functionality at the system level. They are located in the
+``/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/intel_pstate/`` directory and affect all
+CPUs.
+
+Some of them are not present if the ``intel_pstate=per_cpu_perf_limits``
+argument is passed to the kernel in the command line.
+
+``max_perf_pct``
+ Maximum P-state the driver is allowed to set in percent of the
+ maximum supported performance level (the highest supported `turbo
+ P-state <turbo_>`_).
+
+ This attribute will not be exposed if the
+ ``intel_pstate=per_cpu_perf_limits`` argument is present in the kernel
+ command line.
+
+``min_perf_pct``
+ Minimum P-state the driver is allowed to set in percent of the
+ maximum supported performance level (the highest supported `turbo
+ P-state <turbo_>`_).
+
+ This attribute will not be exposed if the
+ ``intel_pstate=per_cpu_perf_limits`` argument is present in the kernel
+ command line.
+
+``num_pstates``
+ Number of P-states supported by the processor (between 0 and 255
+ inclusive) including both turbo and non-turbo P-states (see
+ `Turbo P-states Support`_).
+
+ The value of this attribute is not affected by the ``no_turbo``
+ setting described `below <no_turbo_attr_>`_.
+
+ This attribute is read-only.
+
+``turbo_pct``
+ Ratio of the `turbo range <turbo_>`_ size to the size of the entire
+ range of supported P-states, in percent.
+
+ This attribute is read-only.
+
+.. _no_turbo_attr:
+
+``no_turbo``
+ If set (equal to 1), the driver is not allowed to set any turbo P-states
+ (see `Turbo P-states Support`_). If unset (equalt to 0, which is the
+ default), turbo P-states can be set by the driver.
+ [Note that ``intel_pstate`` does not support the general ``boost``
+ attribute (supported by some other scaling drivers) which is replaced
+ by this one.]
+
+ This attrubute does not affect the maximum supported frequency value
+ supplied to the ``CPUFreq`` core and exposed via the policy interface,
+ but it affects the maximum possible value of per-policy P-state limits
+ (see `Interpretation of Policy Attributes`_ below for details).
+
+.. _status_attr:
+
+``status``
+ Operation mode of the driver: "active", "passive" or "off".
+
+ "active"
+ The driver is functional and in the `active mode
+ <Active Mode_>`_.
+
+ "passive"
+ The driver is functional and in the `passive mode
+ <Passive Mode_>`_.
+
+ "off"
+ The driver is not functional (it is not registered as a scaling
+ driver with the ``CPUFreq`` core).
+
+ This attribute can be written to in order to change the driver's
+ operation mode or to unregister it. The string written to it must be
+ one of the possible values of it and, if successful, the write will
+ cause the driver to switch over to the operation mode represented by
+ that string - or to be unregistered in the "off" case. [Actually,
+ switching over from the active mode to the passive mode or the other
+ way around causes the driver to be unregistered and registered again
+ with a different set of callbacks, so all of its settings (the global
+ as well as the per-policy ones) are then reset to their default
+ values, possibly depending on the target operation mode.]
+
+ That only is supported in some configurations, though (for example, if
+ the `HWP feature is enabled in the processor <Active Mode With HWP_>`_,
+ the operation mode of the driver cannot be changed), and if it is not
+ supported in the current configuration, writes to this attribute with
+ fail with an appropriate error.
+
+Interpretation of Policy Attributes
+-----------------------------------
+
+The interpretation of some ``CPUFreq`` policy attributes described in
+:doc:`cpufreq` is special with ``intel_pstate`` as the current scaling driver
+and it generally depends on the driver's `operation mode <Operation Modes_>`_.
+
+First of all, the values of the ``cpuinfo_max_freq``, ``cpuinfo_min_freq`` and
+``scaling_cur_freq`` attributes are produced by applying a processor-specific
+multiplier to the internal P-state representation used by ``intel_pstate``.
+Also, the values of the ``scaling_max_freq`` and ``scaling_min_freq``
+attributes are capped by the frequency corresponding to the maximum P-state that
+the driver is allowed to set.
+
+If the ``no_turbo`` `global attribute <no_turbo_attr_>`_ is set, the driver is
+not allowed to use turbo P-states, so the maximum value of ``scaling_max_freq``
+and ``scaling_min_freq`` is limited to the maximum non-turbo P-state frequency.
+Accordingly, setting ``no_turbo`` causes ``scaling_max_freq`` and
+``scaling_min_freq`` to go down to that value if they were above it before.
+However, the old values of ``scaling_max_freq`` and ``scaling_min_freq`` will be
+restored after unsetting ``no_turbo``, unless these attributes have been written
+to after ``no_turbo`` was set.
+
+If ``no_turbo`` is not set, the maximum possible value of ``scaling_max_freq``
+and ``scaling_min_freq`` corresponds to the maximum supported turbo P-state,
+which also is the value of ``cpuinfo_max_freq`` in either case.
+
+Next, the following policy attributes have special meaning if
+``intel_pstate`` works in the `active mode <Active Mode_>`_:
+
+``scaling_available_governors``
+ List of P-state selection algorithms provided by ``intel_pstate``.
+
+``scaling_governor``
+ P-state selection algorithm provided by ``intel_pstate`` currently in
+ use with the given policy.
+
+``scaling_cur_freq``
+ Frequency of the average P-state of the CPU represented by the given
+ policy for the time interval between the last two invocations of the
+ driver's utilization update callback by the CPU scheduler for that CPU.
+
+The meaning of these attributes in the `passive mode <Passive Mode_>`_ is the
+same as for other scaling drivers.
+
+Additionally, the value of the ``scaling_driver`` attribute for ``intel_pstate``
+depends on the operation mode of the driver. Namely, it is either
+"intel_pstate" (in the `active mode <Active Mode_>`_) or "intel_cpufreq" (in the
+`passive mode <Passive Mode_>`_).
+
+Coordination of P-State Limits
+------------------------------
+
+``intel_pstate`` allows P-state limits to be set in two ways: with the help of
+the ``max_perf_pct`` and ``min_perf_pct`` `global attributes
+<Global Attributes_>`_ or via the ``scaling_max_freq`` and ``scaling_min_freq``
+``CPUFreq`` policy attributes. The coordination between those limits is based
+on the following rules, regardless of the current operation mode of the driver:
+
+ 1. All CPUs are affected by the global limits (that is, none of them can be
+ requested to run faster than the global maximum and none of them can be
+ requested to run slower than the global minimum).
+
+ 2. Each individual CPU is affected by its own per-policy limits (that is, it
+ cannot be requested to run faster than its own per-policy maximum and it
+ cannot be requested to run slower than its own per-policy minimum).
+
+ 3. The global and per-policy limits can be set independently.
+
+If the `HWP feature is enabled in the processor <Active Mode With HWP_>`_, the
+resulting effective values are written into its registers whenever the limits
+change in order to request its internal P-state selection logic to always set
+P-states within these limits. Otherwise, the limits are taken into account by
+scaling governors (in the `passive mode <Passive Mode_>`_) and by the driver
+every time before setting a new P-state for a CPU.
+
+Additionally, if the ``intel_pstate=per_cpu_perf_limits`` command line argument
+is passed to the kernel, ``max_perf_pct`` and ``min_perf_pct`` are not exposed
+at all and the only way to set the limits is by using the policy attributes.
+
+
+Energy vs Performance Hints
+---------------------------
+
+If ``intel_pstate`` works in the `active mode with the HWP feature enabled
+<Active Mode With HWP_>`_ in the processor, additional attributes are present
+in every ``CPUFreq`` policy directory in ``sysfs``. They are intended to allow
+user space to help ``intel_pstate`` to adjust the processor's internal P-state
+selection logic by focusing it on performance or on energy-efficiency, or
+somewhere between the two extremes:
+
+``energy_performance_preference``
+ Current value of the energy vs performance hint for the given policy
+ (or the CPU represented by it).
+
+ The hint can be changed by writing to this attribute.
+
+``energy_performance_available_preferences``
+ List of strings that can be written to the
+ ``energy_performance_preference`` attribute.
+
+ They represent different energy vs performance hints and should be
+ self-explanatory, except that ``default`` represents whatever hint
+ value was set by the platform firmware.
+
+Strings written to the ``energy_performance_preference`` attribute are
+internally translated to integer values written to the processor's
+Energy-Performance Preference (EPP) knob (if supported) or its
+Energy-Performance Bias (EPB) knob.
+
+[Note that tasks may by migrated from one CPU to another by the scheduler's
+load-balancing algorithm and if different energy vs performance hints are
+set for those CPUs, that may lead to undesirable outcomes. To avoid such
+issues it is better to set the same energy vs performance hint for all CPUs
+or to pin every task potentially sensitive to them to a specific CPU.]
+
+.. _acpi-cpufreq:
+
+``intel_pstate`` vs ``acpi-cpufreq``
+====================================
+
+On the majority of systems supported by ``intel_pstate``, the ACPI tables
+provided by the platform firmware contain ``_PSS`` objects returning information
+that can be used for CPU performance scaling (refer to the `ACPI specification`_
+for details on the ``_PSS`` objects and the format of the information returned
+by them).
+
+The information returned by the ACPI ``_PSS`` objects is used by the
+``acpi-cpufreq`` scaling driver. On systems supported by ``intel_pstate``
+the ``acpi-cpufreq`` driver uses the same hardware CPU performance scaling
+interface, but the set of P-states it can use is limited by the ``_PSS``
+output.
+
+On those systems each ``_PSS`` object returns a list of P-states supported by
+the corresponding CPU which basically is a subset of the P-states range that can
+be used by ``intel_pstate`` on the same system, with one exception: the whole
+`turbo range <turbo_>`_ is represented by one item in it (the topmost one). By
+convention, the frequency returned by ``_PSS`` for that item is greater by 1 MHz
+than the frequency of the highest non-turbo P-state listed by it, but the
+corresponding P-state representation (following the hardware specification)
+returned for it matches the maximum supported turbo P-state (or is the
+special value 255 meaning essentially "go as high as you can get").
+
+The list of P-states returned by ``_PSS`` is reflected by the table of
+available frequencies supplied by ``acpi-cpufreq`` to the ``CPUFreq`` core and
+scaling governors and the minimum and maximum supported frequencies reported by
+it come from that list as well. In particular, given the special representation
+of the turbo range described above, this means that the maximum supported
+frequency reported by ``acpi-cpufreq`` is higher by 1 MHz than the frequency
+of the highest supported non-turbo P-state listed by ``_PSS`` which, of course,
+affects decisions made by the scaling governors, except for ``powersave`` and
+``performance``.
+
+For example, if a given governor attempts to select a frequency proportional to
+estimated CPU load and maps the load of 100% to the maximum supported frequency
+(possibly multiplied by a constant), then it will tend to choose P-states below
+the turbo threshold if ``acpi-cpufreq`` is used as the scaling driver, because
+in that case the turbo range corresponds to a small fraction of the frequency
+band it can use (1 MHz vs 1 GHz or more). In consequence, it will only go to
+the turbo range for the highest loads and the other loads above 50% that might
+benefit from running at turbo frequencies will be given non-turbo P-states
+instead.
+
+One more issue related to that may appear on systems supporting the
+`Configurable TDP feature <turbo_>`_ allowing the platform firmware to set the
+turbo threshold. Namely, if that is not coordinated with the lists of P-states
+returned by ``_PSS`` properly, there may be more than one item corresponding to
+a turbo P-state in those lists and there may be a problem with avoiding the
+turbo range (if desirable or necessary). Usually, to avoid using turbo
+P-states overall, ``acpi-cpufreq`` simply avoids using the topmost state listed
+by ``_PSS``, but that is not sufficient when there are other turbo P-states in
+the list returned by it.
+
+Apart from the above, ``acpi-cpufreq`` works like ``intel_pstate`` in the
+`passive mode <Passive Mode_>`_, except that the number of P-states it can set
+is limited to the ones listed by the ACPI ``_PSS`` objects.
+
+
+Kernel Command Line Options for ``intel_pstate``
+================================================
+
+Several kernel command line options can be used to pass early-configuration-time
+parameters to ``intel_pstate`` in order to enforce specific behavior of it. All
+of them have to be prepended with the ``intel_pstate=`` prefix.
+
+``disable``
+ Do not register ``intel_pstate`` as the scaling driver even if the
+ processor is supported by it.
+
+``passive``
+ Register ``intel_pstate`` in the `passive mode <Passive Mode_>`_ to
+ start with.
+
+ This option implies the ``no_hwp`` one described below.
+
+``force``
+ Register ``intel_pstate`` as the scaling driver instead of
+ ``acpi-cpufreq`` even if the latter is preferred on the given system.
+
+ This may prevent some platform features (such as thermal controls and
+ power capping) that rely on the availability of ACPI P-states
+ information from functioning as expected, so it should be used with
+ caution.
+
+ This option does not work with processors that are not supported by
+ ``intel_pstate`` and on platforms where the ``pcc-cpufreq`` scaling
+ driver is used instead of ``acpi-cpufreq``.
+
+``no_hwp``
+ Do not enable the `hardware-managed P-states (HWP) feature
+ <Active Mode With HWP_>`_ even if it is supported by the processor.
+
+``hwp_only``
+ Register ``intel_pstate`` as the scaling driver only if the
+ `hardware-managed P-states (HWP) feature <Active Mode With HWP_>`_ is
+ supported by the processor.
+
+``support_acpi_ppc``
+ Take ACPI ``_PPC`` performance limits into account.
+
+ If the preferred power management profile in the FADT (Fixed ACPI
+ Description Table) is set to "Enterprise Server" or "Performance
+ Server", the ACPI ``_PPC`` limits are taken into account by default
+ and this option has no effect.
+
+``per_cpu_perf_limits``
+ Use per-logical-CPU P-State limits (see `Coordination of P-state
+ Limits`_ for details).
+
+
+Diagnostics and Tuning
+======================
+
+Trace Events
+------------
+
+There are two static trace events that can be used for ``intel_pstate``
+diagnostics. One of them is the ``cpu_frequency`` trace event generally used
+by ``CPUFreq``, and the other one is the ``pstate_sample`` trace event specific
+to ``intel_pstate``. Both of them are triggered by ``intel_pstate`` only if
+it works in the `active mode <Active Mode_>`_.
+
+The following sequence of shell commands can be used to enable them and see
+their output (if the kernel is generally configured to support event tracing)::
+
+ # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
+ # echo 1 > events/power/pstate_sample/enable
+ # echo 1 > events/power/cpu_frequency/enable
+ # cat trace
+ gnome-terminal--4510 [001] ..s. 1177.680733: pstate_sample: core_busy=107 scaled=94 from=26 to=26 mperf=1143818 aperf=1230607 tsc=29838618 freq=2474476
+ cat-5235 [002] ..s. 1177.681723: cpu_frequency: state=2900000 cpu_id=2
+
+If ``intel_pstate`` works in the `passive mode <Passive Mode_>`_, the
+``cpu_frequency`` trace event will be triggered either by the ``schedutil``
+scaling governor (for the policies it is attached to), or by the ``CPUFreq``
+core (for the policies with other scaling governors).
+
+``ftrace``
+----------
+
+The ``ftrace`` interface can be used for low-level diagnostics of
+``intel_pstate``. For example, to check how often the function to set a
+P-state is called, the ``ftrace`` filter can be set to to
+:c:func:`intel_pstate_set_pstate`::
+
+ # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
+ # cat available_filter_functions | grep -i pstate
+ intel_pstate_set_pstate
+ intel_pstate_cpu_init
+ ...
+ # echo intel_pstate_set_pstate > set_ftrace_filter
+ # echo function > current_tracer
+ # cat trace | head -15
+ # tracer: function
+ #
+ # entries-in-buffer/entries-written: 80/80 #P:4

+ Xorg-3129 [000] ..s. 2537.644844: intel_pstate_set_pstate <-intel_pstate_timer_func
+ gnome-terminal--4510 [002] ..s. 2537.649844: intel_pstate_set_pstate <-intel_pstate_timer_func

+ <idle>-0 [000] ..s. 2537.654843: intel_pstate_set_pstate <-intel_pstate_timer_func
+
+Tuning Interface in ``debugfs``
+-------------------------------
+
+The ``powersave`` algorithm provided by ``intel_pstate`` for `the Core line of
+processors in the active mode <powersave_>`_ is based on a `PID controller`_
+whose parameters were chosen to address a number of different use cases at the
+same time. However, it still is possible to fine-tune it to a specific workload
+and the ``debugfs`` interface under ``/sys/kernel/debug/pstate_snb/`` is
+provided for this purpose. [Note that the ``pstate_snb`` directory will be
+present only if the specific P-state selection algorithm matching the interface
+in it actually is in use.]
+
+The following files present in that directory can be used to modify the PID
+controller parameters at run time:
+
+| ``deadband``
+| ``d_gain_pct``
+| ``i_gain_pct``
+| ``p_gain_pct``
+| ``sample_rate_ms``
+| ``setpoint``
+
+Note, however, that achieving desirable results this way generally requires
+expert-level understanding of the power vs performance tradeoff, so extra care
+is recommended when attempting to do that.

+=============
+ Thunderbolt
+=============
+The interface presented here is not meant for end users. Instead there
+should be a userspace tool that handles all the low-level details, keeps
+database of the authorized devices and prompts user for new connections.
+
+More details about the sysfs interface for Thunderbolt devices can be
+found in ``Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-thunderbolt``.
+
+Those users who just want to connect any device without any sort of
+manual work, can add following line to
+``/etc/udev/rules.d/99-local.rules``::
+
+ ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="thunderbolt", ATTR{authorized}=="0", ATTR{authorized}="1"
+
+This will authorize all devices automatically when they appear. However,
+keep in mind that this bypasses the security levels and makes the system
+vulnerable to DMA attacks.
+
+Security levels and how to use them
+-----------------------------------
+Starting from Intel Falcon Ridge Thunderbolt controller there are 4
+security levels available. The reason for these is the fact that the
+connected devices can be DMA masters and thus read contents of the host
+memory without CPU and OS knowing about it. There are ways to prevent
+this by setting up an IOMMU but it is not always available for various
+reasons.
+
+The security levels are as follows:
+
+ none
+ All devices are automatically connected by the firmware. No user
+ approval is needed. In BIOS settings this is typically called
+ *Legacy mode*.
+
+ user
+ User is asked whether the device is allowed to be connected.
+ Based on the device identification information available through
+ ``/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices``. user then can do the decision.
+ In BIOS settings this is typically called *Unique ID*.
+
+ secure
+ User is asked whether the device is allowed to be connected. In
+ addition to UUID the device (if it supports secure connect) is sent
+ a challenge that should match the expected one based on a random key
+ written to ``key`` sysfs attribute. In BIOS settings this is
+ typically called *One time saved key*.
+
+ dponly
+ The firmware automatically creates tunnels for Display Port and
+ USB. No PCIe tunneling is done. In BIOS settings this is
+ typically called *Display Port Only*.
+
+The current security level can be read from
+``/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/domainX/security`` where ``domainX`` is
+the Thunderbolt domain the host controller manages. There is typically
+one domain per Thunderbolt host controller.
+
+If the security level reads as ``user`` or ``secure`` the connected
+device must be authorized by the user before PCIe tunnels are created
+(e.g the PCIe device appears).
+
+Each Thunderbolt device plugged in will appear in sysfs under
+``/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices``. The device directory carries
+information that can be used to identify the particular device,
+including its name and UUID.
+
+Authorizing devices when security level is ``user`` or ``secure``
+-----------------------------------------------------------------
+When a device is plugged in it will appear in sysfs as follows::
+
+ /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-1/authorized - 0
+ /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-1/device - 0x8004
+ /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-1/device_name - Thunderbolt to FireWire Adapter
+ /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-1/vendor - 0x1
+ /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-1/vendor_name - Apple, Inc.
+ /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-1/unique_id - e0376f00-0300-0100-ffff-ffffffffffff
+
+The ``authorized`` attribute reads 0 which means no PCIe tunnels are
+created yet. The user can authorize the device by simply::
+
+ # echo 1 > /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-1/authorized
+
+This will create the PCIe tunnels and the device is now connected.
+
+If the device supports secure connect, and the domain security level is
+set to ``secure``, it has an additional attribute ``key`` which can hold
+a random 32 byte value used for authorization and challenging the device in
+future connects::
+
+ /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-3/authorized - 0
+ /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-3/device - 0x305
+ /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-3/device_name - AKiTiO Thunder3 PCIe Box
+ /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-3/key -
+ /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-3/vendor - 0x41
+ /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-3/vendor_name - inXtron
+ /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-3/unique_id - dc010000-0000-8508-a22d-32ca6421cb16
+
+Notice the key is empty by default.
+
+If the user does not want to use secure connect it can just ``echo 1``
+to the ``authorized`` attribute and the PCIe tunnels will be created in
+the same way than in ``user`` security level.
+
+If the user wants to use secure connect, the first time the device is
+plugged a key needs to be created and send to the device::
+
+ # key=$(openssl rand -hex 32)
+ # echo $key > /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-3/key
+ # echo 1 > /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-3/authorized
+
+Now the device is connected (PCIe tunnels are created) and in addition
+the key is stored on the device NVM.
+
+Next time the device is plugged in the user can verify (challenge) the
+device using the same key::
+
+ # echo $key > /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-3/key
+ # echo 2 > /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-3/authorized
+
+If the challenge the device returns back matches the one we expect based
+on the key, the device is connected and the PCIe tunnels are created.
+However, if the challenge failed no tunnels are created and error is
+returned to the user.
+
+If the user still wants to connect the device it can either approve
+the device without a key or write new key and write 1 to the
+``authorized`` file to get the new key stored on the device NVM.
+
+Upgrading NVM on Thunderbolt device or host
+-------------------------------------------
+Since most of the functionality is handled in a firmware running on a
+host controller or a device, it is important that the firmware can be
+upgraded to the latest where possible bugs in it have been fixed.
+Typically OEMs provide this firmware from their support site.
+
+There is also a central site which has links where to download firmwares
+for some machines:
+
+ `Thunderbolt Updates <https://thunderbolttechnology.net/updates>`_
+
+Before you upgrade firmware on a device or host, please make sure it is
+the suitable. Failing to do that may render the device (or host) in a
+state where it cannot be used properly anymore without special tools!
+
+Host NVM upgrade on Apple Macs is not supported.
+
+Once the NVM image has been downloaded, you need to plug in a
+Thunderbolt device so that the host controller appears. It does not
+matter which device is connected (unless you are upgrading NVM on a
+device - then you need to connect that particular device).
+
+Note OEM-specific method to power the controller up ("force power") may
+be available for your system in which case there is no need to plug in a
+Thunderbolt device.
+
+After that we can write the firmware to the non-active parts of the NVM
+of the host or device. As an example here is how Intel NUC6i7KYK (Skull
+Canyon) Thunderbolt controller NVM is upgraded::
+
+ # dd if=KYK_TBT_FW_0018.bin of=/sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-0/nvm_non_active0/nvmem
+
+Once the operation completes we can trigger NVM authentication and
+upgrade process as follows::
+
+ # echo 1 > /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-0/nvm_authenticate
+
+If no errors are returned, the host controller shortly disappears. Once
+it comes back the driver notices it and initiates a full power cycle.
+After a while the host controller appears again and this time it should
+be fully functional.
+
+We can verify that the new NVM firmware is active by running following
+commands::
+
+ # cat /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-0/nvm_authenticate
+ 0x0
+ # cat /sys/bus/thunderbolt/devices/0-0/nvm_version
+ 18.0
+
+If ``nvm_authenticate`` contains anything else than 0x0 it is the error
+code from the last authentication cycle, which means the authentication
+of the NVM image failed.
+
+Note names of the NVMem devices ``nvm_activeN`` and ``nvm_non_activeN``
+depends on the order they are registered in the NVMem subsystem. N in
+the name is the identifier added by the NVMem subsystem.
+
+Upgrading NVM when host controller is in safe mode
+--------------------------------------------------
+If the existing NVM is not properly authenticated (or is missing) the
+host controller goes into safe mode which means that only available
+functionality is flashing new NVM image. When in this mode the reading
+``nvm_version`` fails with ``ENODATA`` and the device identification
+information is missing.
+
+To recover from this mode, one needs to flash a valid NVM image to the
+host host controller in the same way it is done in the previous chapter.

-Intel P-State driver
---------------------
-
-This driver provides an interface to control the P-State selection for the
-SandyBridge+ Intel processors.
-
-The following document explains P-States:
-http://events.linuxfoundation.org/sites/events/files/slides/LinuxConEurope_2015.pdf
-As stated in the document, P-State doesn’t exactly mean a frequency. However, for
-the sake of the relationship with cpufreq, P-State and frequency are used
-interchangeably.
-
-Understanding the cpufreq core governors and policies are important before
-discussing more details about the Intel P-State driver. Based on what callbacks
-a cpufreq driver provides to the cpufreq core, it can support two types of
-drivers:
-- with target_index() callback: In this mode, the drivers using cpufreq core
-simply provide the minimum and maximum frequency limits and an additional
-interface target_index() to set the current frequency. The cpufreq subsystem
-has a number of scaling governors ("performance", "powersave", "ondemand",
-etc.). Depending on which governor is in use, cpufreq core will call for
-transitions to a specific frequency using target_index() callback.
-- setpolicy() callback: In this mode, drivers do not provide target_index()
-callback, so cpufreq core can't request a transition to a specific frequency.
-The driver provides minimum and maximum frequency limits and callbacks to set a
-policy. The policy in cpufreq sysfs is referred to as the "scaling governor".
-The cpufreq core can request the driver to operate in any of the two policies:
-"performance" and "powersave". The driver decides which frequency to use based
-on the above policy selection considering minimum and maximum frequency limits.
-
-The Intel P-State driver falls under the latter category, which implements the
-setpolicy() callback. This driver decides what P-State to use based on the
-requested policy from the cpufreq core. If the processor is capable of
-selecting its next P-State internally, then the driver will offload this
-responsibility to the processor (aka HWP: Hardware P-States). If not, the
-driver implements algorithms to select the next P-State.
-
-Since these policies are implemented in the driver, they are not same as the
-cpufreq scaling governors implementation, even if they have the same name in
-the cpufreq sysfs (scaling_governors). For example the "performance" policy is
-similar to cpufreq’s "performance" governor, but "powersave" is completely
-different than the cpufreq "powersave" governor. The strategy here is similar
-to cpufreq "ondemand", where the requested P-State is related to the system load.
-
-Sysfs Interface
-
-In addition to the frequency-controlling interfaces provided by the cpufreq
-core, the driver provides its own sysfs files to control the P-State selection.
-These files have been added to /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/.
-Any changes made to these files are applicable to all CPUs (even in a
-multi-package system, Refer to later section on placing "Per-CPU limits").
-
- max_perf_pct: Limits the maximum P-State that will be requested by
- the driver. It states it as a percentage of the available performance. The
- available (P-State) performance may be reduced by the no_turbo
- setting described below.
-
- min_perf_pct: Limits the minimum P-State that will be requested by
- the driver. It states it as a percentage of the max (non-turbo)
- performance level.
-
- no_turbo: Limits the driver to selecting P-State below the turbo
- frequency range.
-
- turbo_pct: Displays the percentage of the total performance that
- is supported by hardware that is in the turbo range. This number
- is independent of whether turbo has been disabled or not.
-
- num_pstates: Displays the number of P-States that are supported
- by hardware. This number is independent of whether turbo has
- been disabled or not.
-
-For example, if a system has these parameters:
- Max 1 core turbo ratio: 0x21 (Max 1 core ratio is the maximum P-State)
- Max non turbo ratio: 0x17
- Minimum ratio : 0x08 (Here the ratio is called max efficiency ratio)
-
-Sysfs will show :
- max_perf_pct:100, which corresponds to 1 core ratio
- min_perf_pct:24, max_efficiency_ratio / max 1 Core ratio
- no_turbo:0, turbo is not disabled
- num_pstates:26 = (max 1 Core ratio - Max Efficiency Ratio + 1)
- turbo_pct:39 = (max 1 core ratio - max non turbo ratio) / num_pstates
-
-Refer to "Intel® 64 and IA-32 Architectures Software Developer’s Manual
-Volume 3: System Programming Guide" to understand ratios.
-
-There is one more sysfs attribute in /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/
-that can be used for controlling the operation mode of the driver:
-
- status: Three settings are possible:
- "off" - The driver is not in use at this time.
- "active" - The driver works as a P-state governor (default).
- "passive" - The driver works as a regular cpufreq one and collaborates
- with the generic cpufreq governors (it sets P-states as
- requested by those governors).
- The current setting is returned by reads from this attribute. Writing one
- of the above strings to it changes the operation mode as indicated by that
- string, if possible. If HW-managed P-states (HWP) are enabled, it is not
- possible to change the driver's operation mode and attempts to write to
- this attribute will fail.
-
-cpufreq sysfs for Intel P-State
-
-Since this driver registers with cpufreq, cpufreq sysfs is also presented.
-There are some important differences, which need to be considered.
-
-scaling_cur_freq: This displays the real frequency which was used during
-the last sample period instead of what is requested. Some other cpufreq driver,
-like acpi-cpufreq, displays what is requested (Some changes are on the
-way to fix this for acpi-cpufreq driver). The same is true for frequencies
-displayed at /proc/cpuinfo.
-
-scaling_governor: This displays current active policy. Since each CPU has a
-cpufreq sysfs, it is possible to set a scaling governor to each CPU. But this
-is not possible with Intel P-States, as there is one common policy for all
-CPUs. Here, the last requested policy will be applicable to all CPUs. It is
-suggested that one use the cpupower utility to change policy to all CPUs at the
-same time.
-
-scaling_setspeed: This attribute can never be used with Intel P-State.
-
-scaling_max_freq/scaling_min_freq: This interface can be used similarly to
-the max_perf_pct/min_perf_pct of Intel P-State sysfs. However since frequencies
-are converted to nearest possible P-State, this is prone to rounding errors.
-This method is not preferred to limit performance.
-
-affected_cpus: Not used
-related_cpus: Not used
-
-For contemporary Intel processors, the frequency is controlled by the
-processor itself and the P-State exposed to software is related to
-performance levels. The idea that frequency can be set to a single
-frequency is fictional for Intel Core processors. Even if the scaling
-driver selects a single P-State, the actual frequency the processor
-will run at is selected by the processor itself.
-
-Per-CPU limits
-
-The kernel command line option "intel_pstate=per_cpu_perf_limits" forces
-the intel_pstate driver to use per-CPU performance limits. When it is set,
-the sysfs control interface described above is subject to limitations.
-- The following controls are not available for both read and write
- /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/max_perf_pct
- /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/min_perf_pct
-- The following controls can be used to set performance limits, as far as the

-Support of energy performance hints
-It is possible to provide hints to the HWP algorithms in the processor
-to be more performance centric to more energy centric. When the driver
-is using HWP, two additional cpufreq sysfs attributes are presented for
-each logical CPU.
-These attributes are:
- - energy_performance_available_preferences
- - energy_performance_preference
-
-To get list of supported hints:
-$ cat energy_performance_available_preferences
- default performance balance_performance balance_power power
-
-The current preference can be read or changed via cpufreq sysfs
-attribute "energy_performance_preference". Reading from this attribute
-will display current effective setting. User can write any of the valid
-preference string to this attribute. User can always restore to power-on
-default by writing "default".
-
-Since threads can migrate to different CPUs, this is possible that the
-new CPU may have different energy performance preference than the previous
-one. To avoid such issues, either threads can be pinned to specific CPUs
-or set the same energy performance preference value to all CPUs.
-
-Tuning Intel P-State driver
-
-When the performance can be tuned using PID (Proportional Integral
-Derivative) controller, debugfs files are provided for adjusting performance.
-They are presented under:
-/sys/kernel/debug/pstate_snb/
-
-The PID tunable parameters are:
- deadband
- d_gain_pct
- i_gain_pct
- p_gain_pct
- sample_rate_ms
- setpoint
-
-To adjust these parameters, some understanding of driver implementation is
-necessary. There are some tweeks described here, but be very careful. Adjusting
-them requires expert level understanding of power and performance relationship.
-These limits are only useful when the "powersave" policy is active.
-
--To make the system more responsive to load changes, sample_rate_ms can
-be adjusted (current default is 10ms).
--To make the system use higher performance, even if the load is lower, setpoint
-can be adjusted to a lower number. This will also lead to faster ramp up time
-to reach the maximum P-State.
-If there are no derivative and integral coefficients, The next P-State will be
-equal to:
- current P-State - ((setpoint - current cpu load) * p_gain_pct)
-
-For example, if the current PID parameters are (Which are defaults for the core
-processors like SandyBridge):
- deadband = 0
- d_gain_pct = 0
- i_gain_pct = 0
- p_gain_pct = 20
- sample_rate_ms = 10
- setpoint = 97
-
-If the current P-State = 0x08 and current load = 100, this will result in the
-next P-State = 0x08 - ((97 - 100) * 0.2) = 8.6 (rounded to 9). Here the P-State
-goes up by only 1. If during next sample interval the current load doesn't
-change and still 100, then P-State goes up by one again. This process will
-continue as long as the load is more than the setpoint until the maximum P-State
-is reached.
-
-For the same load at setpoint = 60, this will result in the next P-State
-= 0x08 - ((60 - 100) * 0.2) = 16
-So by changing the setpoint from 97 to 60, there is an increase of the
-next P-State from 9 to 16. So this will make processor execute at higher
-P-State for the same CPU load. If the load continues to be more than the
-setpoint during next sample intervals, then P-State will go up again till the
-maximum P-State is reached. But the ramp up time to reach the maximum P-State
-will be much faster when the setpoint is 60 compared to 97.
-
-Debugging Intel P-State driver
-
-Event tracing
-To debug P-State transition, the Linux event tracing interface can be used.
-There are two specific events, which can be enabled (Provided the kernel
-configs related to event tracing are enabled).
-
-# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
-# echo 1 > events/power/pstate_sample/enable
-# echo 1 > events/power/cpu_frequency/enable
-# cat trace

-cat-5235 [002] ..s. 1177.681723: cpu_frequency: state=2900000 cpu_id=2
-
-
-Using ftrace
-
-If function level tracing is required, the Linux ftrace interface can be used.
-For example if we want to check how often a function to set a P-State is
-called, we can set ftrace filter to intel_pstate_set_pstate.
-
-# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/

+* CoreSight CPU Debug Component:
+
+CoreSight CPU debug component are compliant with the ARMv8 architecture
+reference manual (ARM DDI 0487A.k) Chapter 'Part H: External debug'. The
+external debug module is mainly used for two modes: self-hosted debug and
+external debug, and it can be accessed from mmio region from Coresight
+and eventually the debug module connects with CPU for debugging. And the
+debug module provides sample-based profiling extension, which can be used
+to sample CPU program counter, secure state and exception level, etc;
+usually every CPU has one dedicated debug module to be connected.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible : should be "arm,coresight-cpu-debug"; supplemented with
+ "arm,primecell" since this driver is using the AMBA bus
+ interface.
+
+- reg : physical base address and length of the register set.
+
+- clocks : the clock associated to this component.
+
+- clock-names : the name of the clock referenced by the code. Since we are
+ using the AMBA framework, the name of the clock providing
+ the interconnect should be "apb_pclk" and the clock is
+ mandatory. The interface between the debug logic and the
+ processor core is clocked by the internal CPU clock, so it
+ is enabled with CPU clock by default.
+
+- cpu : the CPU phandle the debug module is affined to. When omitted
+ the module is considered to belong to CPU0.
+
+Optional properties:
+
+- power-domains: a phandle to the debug power domain. We use "power-domains"
+ binding to turn on the debug logic if it has own dedicated
+ power domain and if necessary to use "cpuidle.off=1" or
+ "nohlt" in the kernel command line or sysfs node to
+ constrain idle states to ensure registers in the CPU power
+ domain are accessible.
+
+Example:
+
+ debug@f6590000 {
+ compatible = "arm,coresight-cpu-debug","arm,primecell";
+ reg = <0 0xf6590000 0 0x1000>;
+ clocks = <&sys_ctrl HI6220_DAPB_CLK>;

+- mux-controls: The phandle of the mux controller to use for operating the

+ + during releasing of the multiplexer
+ However, I2C transactions to devices behind all I2C multiplexers connected
+ to the same parent adapter that this multiplexer is connected to are blocked
+ for the full duration of the complete multiplexed I2C transaction (i.e.
+ including the times covered by the above list).
+ If mux-locked is not present, the multiplexer is assumed to be parent-locked.
+ This means that no unrelated I2C transactions are allowed on the parent I2C
+ adapter for the complete multiplexed I2C transaction.
+ The properties of mux-locked and parent-locked multiplexers are discussed
+ in more detail in Documentation/i2c/i2c-topology.
+
+For each i2c child node, an I2C child bus will be created. They will
+be numbered based on their order in the device tree.

+Whenever an access is made to a device on a child bus, the value set
+in the relevant node's reg property will be set as the state in the

+Common multiplexer controller bindings
+======================================
+
+A multiplexer (or mux) controller will have one, or several, consumer devices
+that uses the mux controller. Thus, a mux controller can possibly control
+several parallel multiplexers. Presumably there will be at least one
+multiplexer needed by each consumer, but a single mux controller can of course
+control several multiplexers for a single consumer.
+
+A mux controller provides a number of states to its consumers, and the state
+space is a simple zero-based enumeration. I.e. 0-1 for a 2-way multiplexer,
+0-7 for an 8-way multiplexer, etc.
+
+
+Consumers
+---------
+
+Mux controller consumers should specify a list of mux controllers that they
+want to use with a property containing a 'mux-ctrl-list':
+
+ mux-ctrl-list ::= <single-mux-ctrl> [mux-ctrl-list]
+ single-mux-ctrl ::= <mux-ctrl-phandle> [mux-ctrl-specifier]
+ mux-ctrl-phandle : phandle to mux controller node
+ mux-ctrl-specifier : array of #mux-control-cells specifying the
+ given mux controller (controller specific)
+
+Mux controller properties should be named "mux-controls". The exact meaning of
+each mux controller property must be documented in the device tree binding for
+each consumer. An optional property "mux-control-names" may contain a list of
+strings to label each of the mux controllers listed in the "mux-controls"
+property.
+
+Drivers for devices that use more than a single mux controller can use the
+"mux-control-names" property to map the name of the requested mux controller
+to an index into the list given by the "mux-controls" property.
+
+mux-ctrl-specifier typically encodes the chip-relative mux controller number.
+If the mux controller chip only provides a single mux controller, the
+mux-ctrl-specifier can typically be left out.
+
+Example:
+

+
+Mux controller nodes
+--------------------
+
+Mux controller nodes must specify the number of cells used for the
+specifier using the '#mux-control-cells' property.
+
+Optionally, mux controller nodes can also specify the state the mux should
+have when it is idle. The idle-state property is used for this. If the
+idle-state is not present, the mux controller is typically left as is when
+it is idle. For multiplexer chips that expose several mux controllers, the
+idle-state property is an array with one idle state for each mux controller.
+
+The special value (-1) may be used to indicate that the mux should be left
+as is when it is idle. This is the default, but can still be useful for
+mux controller chips with more than one mux controller, particularly when
+there is a need to "step past" a mux controller and set some other idle
+state for a mux controller with a higher index.
+
+Some mux controllers have the ability to disconnect the input/output of the
+multiplexer. Using this disconnected high-impedance state as the idle state
+is indicated with idle state (-2).
+
+These constants are available in
+
+ #include <dt-bindings/mux/mux.h>
+
+as MUX_IDLE_AS_IS (-1) and MUX_IDLE_DISCONNECT (-2).
+
+An example mux controller node look like this (the adg972a chip is a triple
+4-way multiplexer):
+
+ mux: mux-controller@50 {
+ compatible = "adi,adg792a";
+ reg = <0x50>;
+ #mux-control-cells = <1>;
+
+ idle-state = <MUX_IDLE_DISCONNECT MUX_IDLE_AS_IS 2>;
+ };

+Amlogic Meson SoC UART Serial Interface
+=======================================
+
+The Amlogic Meson SoC UART Serial Interface is present on a large range
+of SoCs, and can be present either in the "Always-On" power domain or the
+"Everything-Else" power domain.
+
+The particularity of the "Always-On" Serial Interface is that the hardware
+is active since power-on and does not need any clock gating and is usable
+as very early serial console.
+
+Required properties:

+ - Meson8b : "amlogic,meson8b-uart"
+ - GX (GXBB, GXL, GXM) : "amlogic,meson-gx-uart"
+ eventually followed by : "amlogic,meson-ao-uart" if this UART interface
+ is in the "Always-On" power domain.

+Synopsys DesignWare Core SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Controller
+===============================================================
+
+:Author: Felipe Balbi <felipe.balbi@linux.intel.com>
+:Date: April 2017
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+The *Synopsys DesignWare Core SuperSpeed USB 3.0 Controller*
+(hereinafter referred to as *DWC3*) is a USB SuperSpeed compliant
+controller which can be configured in one of 4 ways:
+
+ 1. Peripheral-only configuration
+ 2. Host-only configuration
+ 3. Dual-Role configuration
+ 4. Hub configuration
+
+Linux currently supports several versions of this controller. In all
+likelyhood, the version in your SoC is already supported. At the time
+of this writing, known tested versions range from 2.02a to 3.10a. As a
+rule of thumb, anything above 2.02a should work reliably well.
+
+Currently, we have many known users for this driver. In alphabetical
+order:
+
+ 1. Cavium
+ 2. Intel Corporation
+ 3. Qualcomm
+ 4. Rockchip
+ 5. ST
+ 6. Samsung
+ 7. Texas Instruments
+ 8. Xilinx
+
+Summary of Features
+======================
+
+For details about features supported by your version of DWC3, consult
+your IP team and/or *Synopsys DesignWare Core SuperSpeed USB 3.0
+Controller Databook*. Following is a list of features supported by the
+driver at the time of this writing:
+
+ 1. Up to 16 bidirectional endpoints (including the control
+ pipe - ep0)
+ 2. Flexible endpoint configuration
+ 3. Simultaneous IN and OUT transfer support
+ 4. Scatter-list support
+ 5. Up to 256 TRBs [#trb]_ per endpoint
+ 6. Support for all transfer types (*Control*, *Bulk*,
+ *Interrupt*, and *Isochronous*)
+ 7. SuperSpeed Bulk Streams
+ 8. Link Power Management
+ 9. Trace Events for debugging
+ 10. DebugFS [#debugfs]_ interface
+
+These features have all been exercised with many of the **in-tree**
+gadget drivers. We have verified both *ConfigFS* [#configfs]_ and
+legacy gadget drivers.
+
+Driver Design
+==============
+
+The DWC3 driver sits on the *drivers/usb/dwc3/* directory. All files
+related to this driver are in this one directory. This makes it easy
+for new-comers to read the code and understand how it behaves.
+
+Because of DWC3's configuration flexibility, the driver is a little
+complex in some places but it should be rather straightforward to
+understand.
+
+The biggest part of the driver refers to the Gadget API.
+
+Known Limitations
+===================
+
+Like any other HW, DWC3 has its own set of limitations. To avoid
+constant questions about such problems, we decided to document them
+here and have a single location to where we could point users.
+
+OUT Transfer Size Requirements
+---------------------------------
+
+According to Synopsys Databook, all OUT transfer TRBs [#trb]_ must
+have their *size* field set to a value which is integer divisible by
+the endpoint's *wMaxPacketSize*. This means that *e.g.* in order to
+receive a Mass Storage *CBW* [#cbw]_, req->length must either be set
+to a value that's divisible by *wMaxPacketSize* (1024 on SuperSpeed,
+512 on HighSpeed, etc), or DWC3 driver must add a Chained TRB pointing
+to a throw-away buffer for the remaining length. Without this, OUT
+transfers will **NOT** start.
+
+Note that as of this writing, this won't be a problem because DWC3 is
+fully capable of appending a chained TRB for the remaining length and
+completely hide this detail from the gadget driver. It's still worth
+mentioning because this seems to be the largest source of queries
+about DWC3 and *non-working transfers*.
+
+TRB Ring Size Limitation
+-------------------------
+
+We, currently, have a hard limit of 256 TRBs [#trb]_ per endpoint,
+with the last TRB being a Link TRB [#link_trb]_ pointing back to the
+first. This limit is arbitrary but it has the benefit of adding up to
+exactly 4096 bytes, or 1 Page.
+
+DWC3 driver will try its best to cope with more than 255 requests and,
+for the most part, it should work normally. However this is not
+something that has been exercised very frequently. If you experience
+any problems, see section **Reporting Bugs** below.
+
+Reporting Bugs
+================
+
+Whenever you encounter a problem with DWC3, first and foremost you
+should make sure that:
+
+ 1. You're running latest tag from `Linus' tree`_
+ 2. You can reproduce the error without any out-of-tree changes
+ to DWC3
+ 3. You have checked that it's not a fault on the host machine
+
+After all these are verified, then here's how to capture enough
+information so we can be of any help to you.
+
+Required Information
+---------------------
+
+DWC3 relies exclusively on Trace Events for debugging. Everything is
+exposed there, with some extra bits being exposed to DebugFS
+[#debugfs]_.
+
+In order to capture DWC3's Trace Events you should run the following
+commands **before** plugging the USB cable to a host machine:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ # mkdir -p /d
+ # mkdir -p /t
+ # mount -t debugfs none /d
+ # mount -t tracefs none /t
+ # echo 81920 > /t/buffer_size_kb
+ # echo 1 > /t/events/dwc3/enable
+
+After this is done, you can connect your USB cable and reproduce the
+problem. As soon as the fault is reproduced, make a copy of files
+``trace`` and ``regdump``, like so:
+
+.. code-block:: sh
+
+ # cp /t/trace /root/trace.txt
+ # cat /d/*dwc3*/regdump > /root/regdump.txt
+
+Make sure to compress ``trace.txt`` and ``regdump.txt`` in a tarball
+and email it to `me`_ with `linux-usb`_ in Cc. If you want to be extra
+sure that I'll help you, write your subject line in the following
+format:
+
+ **[BUG REPORT] usb: dwc3: Bug while doing XYZ**
+
+On the email body, make sure to detail what you doing, which gadget
+driver you were using, how to reproduce the problem, what SoC you're
+using, which OS (and its version) was running on the Host machine.
+
+With all this information, we should be able to understand what's
+going on and be helpful to you.
+
+Debugging
+===========
+
+First and foremost a disclaimer::
+
+ DISCLAIMER: The information available on DebugFS and/or TraceFS can
+ change at any time at any Major Linux Kernel Release. If writing
+ scripts, do **NOT** assume information to be available in the
+ current format.
+
+With that out of the way, let's carry on.
+
+If you're willing to debug your own problem, you deserve a round of
+applause :-)
+
+Anyway, there isn't much to say here other than Trace Events will be
+really helpful in figuring out issues with DWC3. Also, access to
+Synopsys Databook will be **really** valuable in this case.
+
+A USB Sniffer can be helpful at times but it's not entirely required,
+there's a lot that can be understood without looking at the wire.
+
+Feel free to email `me`_ and Cc `linux-usb`_ if you need any help.
+
+``DebugFS``
+-------------
+
+``DebugFS`` is very good for gathering snapshots of what's going on
+with DWC3 and/or any endpoint.
+
+On DWC3's ``DebugFS`` directory, you will find the following files and
+directories:
+
+``ep[0..15]{in,out}/``
+``link_state``
+``regdump``
+``testmode``
+
+``link_state``
+``````````````
+
+When read, ``link_state`` will print out one of ``U0``, ``U1``,
+``U2``, ``U3``, ``SS.Disabled``, ``RX.Detect``, ``SS.Inactive``,
+``Polling``, ``Recovery``, ``Hot Reset``, ``Compliance``,
+``Loopback``, ``Reset``, ``Resume`` or ``UNKNOWN link state``.
+
+This file can also be written to in order to force link to one of the
+states above.
+
+``regdump``
+`````````````
+
+File name is self-explanatory. When read, ``regdump`` will print out a
+register dump of DWC3. Note that this file can be grepped to find the
+information you want.
+
+``testmode``
+``````````````
+
+When read, ``testmode`` will print out a name of one of the specified
+USB 2.0 Testmodes (``test_j``, ``test_k``, ``test_se0_nak``,
+``test_packet``, ``test_force_enable``) or the string ``no test`` in
+case no tests are currently being executed.
+
+In order to start any of these test modes, the same strings can be
+written to the file and DWC3 will enter the requested test mode.
+
+
+``ep[0..15]{in,out}``
+``````````````````````
+
+For each endpoint we expose one directory following the naming
+convention ``ep$num$dir`` *(ep0in, ep0out, ep1in, ...)*. Inside each
+of these directories you will find the following files:
+
+``descriptor_fetch_queue``
+``event_queue``
+``rx_fifo_queue``
+``rx_info_queue``
+``rx_request_queue``
+``transfer_type``
+``trb_ring``
+``tx_fifo_queue``
+``tx_request_queue``
+
+With access to Synopsys Databook, you can decode the information on
+them.
+
+``transfer_type``
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+When read, ``transfer_type`` will print out one of ``control``,
+``bulk``, ``interrupt`` or ``isochronous`` depending on what the
+endpoint descriptor says. If the endpoint hasn't been enabled yet, it
+will print ``--``.
+
+``trb_ring``
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+When read, ``trb_ring`` will print out details about all TRBs on the
+ring. It will also tell you where our enqueue and dequeue pointers are
+located in the ring:
+
+.. code-block:: sh

+Trace Events
+-------------
+
+DWC3 also provides several trace events which help us gathering
+information about the behavior of the driver during runtime.
+
+In order to use these events, you must enable ``CONFIG_FTRACE`` in
+your kernel config.
+
+For details about how enable DWC3 events, see section **Reporting
+Bugs**.
+
+The following subsections will give details about each Event Class and
+each Event defined by DWC3.
+
+MMIO
+```````
+
+It is sometimes useful to look at every MMIO access when looking for
+bugs. Because of that, DWC3 offers two Trace Events (one for
+dwc3_readl() and one for dwc3_writel()). ``TP_printk`` follows::
+
+ TP_printk("addr %p value %08x", __entry->base + __entry->offset,
+ __entry->value)
+
+Interrupt Events
+````````````````
+
+Every IRQ event can be logged and decoded into a human readable
+string. Because every event will be different, we don't give an
+example other than the ``TP_printk`` format used::
+
+ TP_printk("event (%08x): %s", __entry->event,
+ dwc3_decode_event(__entry->event, __entry->ep0state))
+
+Control Request
+`````````````````
+
+Every USB Control Request can be logged to the trace buffer. The
+output format is::
+
+ TP_printk("%s", dwc3_decode_ctrl(__entry->bRequestType,
+ __entry->bRequest, __entry->wValue,
+ __entry->wIndex, __entry->wLength)
+ )
+
+Note that Standard Control Requests will be decoded into
+human-readable strings with their respective arguments. Class and
+Vendor requests will be printed out a sequence of 8 bytes in hex
+format.
+
+Lifetime of a ``struct usb_request``
+```````````````````````````````````````
+
+The entire lifetime of a ``struct usb_request`` can be tracked on the
+trace buffer. We have one event for each of allocation, free,
+queueing, dequeueing, and giveback. Output format is::
+
+ TP_printk("%s: req %p length %u/%u %s%s%s ==> %d",
+ __get_str(name), __entry->req, __entry->actual, __entry->length,
+ __entry->zero ? "Z" : "z",
+ __entry->short_not_ok ? "S" : "s",
+ __entry->no_interrupt ? "i" : "I",
+ __entry->status
+ )
+
+Generic Commands
+````````````````````
+
+We can log and decode every Generic Command with its completion
+code. Format is::
+
+ TP_printk("cmd '%s' [%x] param %08x --> status: %s",
+ dwc3_gadget_generic_cmd_string(__entry->cmd),
+ __entry->cmd, __entry->param,
+ dwc3_gadget_generic_cmd_status_string(__entry->status)
+ )
+
+Endpoint Commands
+````````````````````
+
+Endpoints commands can also be logged together with completion
+code. Format is::
+
+ TP_printk("%s: cmd '%s' [%d] params %08x %08x %08x --> status: %s",
+ __get_str(name), dwc3_gadget_ep_cmd_string(__entry->cmd),
+ __entry->cmd, __entry->param0,
+ __entry->param1, __entry->param2,
+ dwc3_ep_cmd_status_string(__entry->cmd_status)
+ )
+
+Lifetime of a ``TRB``
+``````````````````````
+
+A ``TRB`` Lifetime is simple. We are either preparing a ``TRB`` or
+completing it. With these two events, we can see how a ``TRB`` changes
+over time. Format is::
+
+ TP_printk("%s: %d/%d trb %p buf %08x%08x size %s%d ctrl %08x (%c%c%c%c:%c%c:%s)",
+ __get_str(name), __entry->queued, __entry->allocated,
+ __entry->trb, __entry->bph, __entry->bpl,
+ ({char *s;
+ int pcm = ((__entry->size >> 24) & 3) + 1;
+ switch (__entry->type) {
+ case USB_ENDPOINT_XFER_INT:
+ case USB_ENDPOINT_XFER_ISOC:
+ switch (pcm) {
+ case 1:
+ s = "1x ";
+ break;
+ case 2:
+ s = "2x ";
+ break;
+ case 3:
+ s = "3x ";
+ break;
+ }
+ default:
+ s = "";
+ } s; }),
+ DWC3_TRB_SIZE_LENGTH(__entry->size), __entry->ctrl,
+ __entry->ctrl & DWC3_TRB_CTRL_HWO ? 'H' : 'h',
+ __entry->ctrl & DWC3_TRB_CTRL_LST ? 'L' : 'l',
+ __entry->ctrl & DWC3_TRB_CTRL_CHN ? 'C' : 'c',
+ __entry->ctrl & DWC3_TRB_CTRL_CSP ? 'S' : 's',
+ __entry->ctrl & DWC3_TRB_CTRL_ISP_IMI ? 'S' : 's',
+ __entry->ctrl & DWC3_TRB_CTRL_IOC ? 'C' : 'c',
+ dwc3_trb_type_string(DWC3_TRBCTL_TYPE(__entry->ctrl))
+ )
+
+Lifetime of an Endpoint
+```````````````````````
+
+And endpoint's lifetime is summarized with enable and disable
+operations, both of which can be traced. Format is::
+
+ TP_printk("%s: mps %d/%d streams %d burst %d ring %d/%d flags %c:%c%c%c%c%c:%c:%c",
+ __get_str(name), __entry->maxpacket,
+ __entry->maxpacket_limit, __entry->max_streams,
+ __entry->maxburst, __entry->trb_enqueue,
+ __entry->trb_dequeue,
+ __entry->flags & DWC3_EP_ENABLED ? 'E' : 'e',
+ __entry->flags & DWC3_EP_STALL ? 'S' : 's',
+ __entry->flags & DWC3_EP_WEDGE ? 'W' : 'w',
+ __entry->flags & DWC3_EP_BUSY ? 'B' : 'b',
+ __entry->flags & DWC3_EP_PENDING_REQUEST ? 'P' : 'p',
+ __entry->flags & DWC3_EP_MISSED_ISOC ? 'M' : 'm',
+ __entry->flags & DWC3_EP_END_TRANSFER_PENDING ? 'E' : 'e',
+ __entry->direction ? '<' : '>'
+ )

+DPAA Ethernet Overview
+======================
+
+DPAA stands for Data Path Acceleration Architecture and it is a
+set of networking acceleration IPs that are available on several
+generations of SoCs, both on PowerPC and ARM64.
+
+The Freescale DPAA architecture consists of a series of hardware blocks
+that support Ethernet connectivity. The Ethernet driver depends upon the
+following drivers in the Linux kernel:
+
+ - Peripheral Access Memory Unit (PAMU) (* needed only for PPC platforms)
+ drivers/iommu/fsl_*
+ - Frame Manager (FMan)
+ drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fman
+ - Queue Manager (QMan), Buffer Manager (BMan)
+ drivers/soc/fsl/qbman

+DPAA Ethernet Supported SoCs
+============================
+
+The DPAA drivers enable the Ethernet controllers present on the following SoCs:
+
+# PPC
+P1023
+P2041
+P3041
+P4080
+P5020
+P5040
+T1023
+T1024
+T1040
+T1042
+T2080
+T4240
+B4860
+
+# ARM
+LS1043A
+LS1046A
+
+Configuring DPAA Ethernet in your kernel
+========================================
+
+To enable the DPAA Ethernet driver, the following Kconfig options are required:
+
+# common for arch/arm64 and arch/powerpc platforms
+CONFIG_FSL_DPAA=y
+CONFIG_FSL_FMAN=y
+CONFIG_FSL_DPAA_ETH=y
+CONFIG_FSL_XGMAC_MDIO=y
+
+# for arch/powerpc only
+CONFIG_FSL_PAMU=y
+
+# common options needed for the PHYs used on the RDBs
+CONFIG_VITESSE_PHY=y
+CONFIG_REALTEK_PHY=y
+CONFIG_AQUANTIA_PHY=y
+
+DPAA Ethernet Frame Processing
+==============================
+
+On Rx, buffers for the incoming frames are retrieved from one of the three
+existing buffers pools. The driver initializes and seeds these, each with
+buffers of different sizes: 1KB, 2KB and 4KB.
+
+On Tx, all transmitted frames are returned to the driver through Tx
+confirmation frame queues. The driver is then responsible for freeing the
+buffers. In order to do this properly, a backpointer is added to the buffer
+before transmission that points to the skb. When the buffer returns to the
+driver on a confirmation FQ, the skb can be correctly consumed.
+
+DPAA Ethernet Features
+======================
+
+Currently the DPAA Ethernet driver enables the basic features required for
+a Linux Ethernet driver. The support for advanced features will be added
+gradually.
+
+The driver has Rx and Tx checksum offloading for UDP and TCP. Currently the Rx
+checksum offload feature is enabled by default and cannot be controlled through
+ethtool.
+
+The driver has support for multiple prioritized Tx traffic classes. Priorities
+range from 0 (lowest) to 3 (highest). These are mapped to HW workqueues with
+strict priority levels. Each traffic class contains NR_CPU TX queues. By
+default, only one traffic class is enabled and the lowest priority Tx queues
+are used. Higher priority traffic classes can be enabled with the mqprio
+qdisc. For example, all four traffic classes are enabled on an interface with
+the following command. Furthermore, skb priority levels are mapped to traffic
+classes as follows:
+
+ * priorities 0 to 3 - traffic class 0 (low priority)
+ * priorities 4 to 7 - traffic class 1 (medium-low priority)
+ * priorities 8 to 11 - traffic class 2 (medium-high priority)
+ * priorities 12 to 15 - traffic class 3 (high priority)

+2.2 Bandwidth reclaiming
+------------------------
+
+ Bandwidth reclaiming for deadline tasks is based on the GRUB (Greedy
+ Reclamation of Unused Bandwidth) algorithm [15, 16, 17] and it is enabled
+ when flag SCHED_FLAG_RECLAIM is set.
+
+ The following diagram illustrates the state names for tasks handled by GRUB:
+
+ ------------
+ (d) | Active |
+ ------------->| |
+ | | Contending |
+ | ------------
+ | A |
+ ---------- | |
+ | | | |
+ | Inactive | |(b) | (a)
+ | | | |
+ ---------- | |
+ A | V
+ | ------------
+ | | Active |
+ --------------| Non |
+ (c) | Contending |
+ ------------
+
+ A task can be in one of the following states:
+
+ - ActiveContending: if it is ready for execution (or executing);
+
+ - ActiveNonContending: if it just blocked and has not yet surpassed the 0-lag
+ time;
+
+ - Inactive: if it is blocked and has surpassed the 0-lag time.
+
+ State transitions:
+
+ (a) When a task blocks, it does not become immediately inactive since its
+ bandwidth cannot be immediately reclaimed without breaking the
+ real-time guarantees. It therefore enters a transitional state called
+ ActiveNonContending. The scheduler arms the "inactive timer" to fire at
+ the 0-lag time, when the task's bandwidth can be reclaimed without
+ breaking the real-time guarantees.
+
+ The 0-lag time for a task entering the ActiveNonContending state is
+ computed as
+
+ (runtime * dl_period)
+ deadline - ---------------------
+ dl_runtime
+
+ where runtime is the remaining runtime, while dl_runtime and dl_period
+ are the reservation parameters.
+
+ (b) If the task wakes up before the inactive timer fires, the task re-enters
+ the ActiveContending state and the "inactive timer" is canceled.
+ In addition, if the task wakes up on a different runqueue, then
+ the task's utilization must be removed from the previous runqueue's active
+ utilization and must be added to the new runqueue's active utilization.
+ In order to avoid races between a task waking up on a runqueue while the
+ "inactive timer" is running on a different CPU, the "dl_non_contending"
+ flag is used to indicate that a task is not on a runqueue but is active
+ (so, the flag is set when the task blocks and is cleared when the
+ "inactive timer" fires or when the task wakes up).
+
+ (c) When the "inactive timer" fires, the task enters the Inactive state and
+ its utilization is removed from the runqueue's active utilization.
+
+ (d) When an inactive task wakes up, it enters the ActiveContending state and
+ its utilization is added to the active utilization of the runqueue where
+ it has been enqueued.
+
+ For each runqueue, the algorithm GRUB keeps track of two different bandwidths:
+
+ - Active bandwidth (running_bw): this is the sum of the bandwidths of all
+ tasks in active state (i.e., ActiveContending or ActiveNonContending);
+
+ - Total bandwidth (this_bw): this is the sum of all tasks "belonging" to the
+ runqueue, including the tasks in Inactive state.
+
+
+ The algorithm reclaims the bandwidth of the tasks in Inactive state.
+ It does so by decrementing the runtime of the executing task Ti at a pace equal
+ to
+
+ dq = -max{ Ui, (1 - Uinact) } dt
+
+ where Uinact is the inactive utilization, computed as (this_bq - running_bw),
+ and Ui is the bandwidth of task Ti.
+
+
+ Let's now see a trivial example of two deadline tasks with runtime equal
+ to 4 and period equal to 8 (i.e., bandwidth equal to 0.5):
+

+ - Time t = 0:
+
+ Both tasks are ready for execution and therefore in ActiveContending state.
+ Suppose Task T1 is the first task to start execution.
+ Since there are no inactive tasks, its runtime is decreased as dq = -1 dt.
+
+ - Time t = 2:
+
+ Suppose that task T1 blocks
+ Task T1 therefore enters the ActiveNonContending state. Since its remaining
+ runtime is equal to 2, its 0-lag time is equal to t = 4.
+ Task T2 start execution, with runtime still decreased as dq = -1 dt since
+ there are no inactive tasks.
+
+ - Time t = 4:
+
+ This is the 0-lag time for Task T1. Since it didn't woken up in the
+ meantime, it enters the Inactive state. Its bandwidth is removed from
+ running_bw.
+ Task T2 continues its execution. However, its runtime is now decreased as
+ dq = - 0.5 dt because Uinact = 0.5.
+ Task T2 therefore reclaims the bandwidth unused by Task T1.

+
+ Task T1 wakes up. It enters the ActiveContending state again, and the

+ Coresight CPU Debug Module
+ ==========================
+
+ Author: Leo Yan <leo.yan@linaro.org>
+ Date: April 5th, 2017
+
+Introduction
+------------
+
+Coresight CPU debug module is defined in ARMv8-a architecture reference manual
+(ARM DDI 0487A.k) Chapter 'Part H: External debug', the CPU can integrate
+debug module and it is mainly used for two modes: self-hosted debug and
+external debug. Usually the external debug mode is well known as the external
+debugger connects with SoC from JTAG port; on the other hand the program can
+explore debugging method which rely on self-hosted debug mode, this document
+is to focus on this part.
+
+The debug module provides sample-based profiling extension, which can be used
+to sample CPU program counter, secure state and exception level, etc; usually
+every CPU has one dedicated debug module to be connected. Based on self-hosted
+debug mechanism, Linux kernel can access these related registers from mmio
+region when the kernel panic happens. The callback notifier for kernel panic
+will dump related registers for every CPU; finally this is good for assistant
+analysis for panic.
+
+
+Implementation
+--------------
+
+- During driver registration, it uses EDDEVID and EDDEVID1 - two device ID
+ registers to decide if sample-based profiling is implemented or not. On some
+ platforms this hardware feature is fully or partially implemented; and if
+ this feature is not supported then registration will fail.
+
+- At the time this documentation was written, the debug driver mainly relies on
+ information gathered by the kernel panic callback notifier from three
+ sampling registers: EDPCSR, EDVIDSR and EDCIDSR: from EDPCSR we can get
+ program counter; EDVIDSR has information for secure state, exception level,
+ bit width, etc; EDCIDSR is context ID value which contains the sampled value
+ of CONTEXTIDR_EL1.
+
+- The driver supports a CPU running in either AArch64 or AArch32 mode. The
+ registers naming convention is a bit different between them, AArch64 uses
+ 'ED' for register prefix (ARM DDI 0487A.k, chapter H9.1) and AArch32 uses
+ 'DBG' as prefix (ARM DDI 0487A.k, chapter G5.1). The driver is unified to
+ use AArch64 naming convention.
+
+- ARMv8-a (ARM DDI 0487A.k) and ARMv7-a (ARM DDI 0406C.b) have different
+ register bits definition. So the driver consolidates two difference:
+
+ If PCSROffset=0b0000, on ARMv8-a the feature of EDPCSR is not implemented;
+ but ARMv7-a defines "PCSR samples are offset by a value that depends on the
+ instruction set state". For ARMv7-a, the driver checks furthermore if CPU
+ runs with ARM or thumb instruction set and calibrate PCSR value, the
+ detailed description for offset is in ARMv7-a ARM (ARM DDI 0406C.b) chapter
+ C11.11.34 "DBGPCSR, Program Counter Sampling Register".
+
+ If PCSROffset=0b0010, ARMv8-a defines "EDPCSR implemented, and samples have
+ no offset applied and do not sample the instruction set state in AArch32
+ state". So on ARMv8 if EDDEVID1.PCSROffset is 0b0010 and the CPU operates
+ in AArch32 state, EDPCSR is not sampled; when the CPU operates in AArch64
+ state EDPCSR is sampled and no offset are applied.
+
+
+Clock and power domain
+----------------------
+
+Before accessing debug registers, we should ensure the clock and power domain
+have been enabled properly. In ARMv8-a ARM (ARM DDI 0487A.k) chapter 'H9.1
+Debug registers', the debug registers are spread into two domains: the debug
+domain and the CPU domain.
+
+ +---------------+
+ | |
+ | |
+ +----------+--+ |
+ dbg_clock -->| |**| |<-- cpu_clock
+ | Debug |**| CPU |
+ dbg_power_domain -->| |**| |<-- cpu_power_domain
+ +----------+--+ |
+ | |
+ | |
+ +---------------+
+
+For debug domain, the user uses DT binding "clocks" and "power-domains" to
+specify the corresponding clock source and power supply for the debug logic.
+The driver calls the pm_runtime_{put|get} operations as needed to handle the
+debug power domain.
+
+For CPU domain, the different SoC designs have different power management
+schemes and finally this heavily impacts external debug module. So we can
+divide into below cases:
+
+- On systems with a sane power controller which can behave correctly with
+ respect to CPU power domain, the CPU power domain can be controlled by
+ register EDPRCR in driver. The driver firstly writes bit EDPRCR.COREPURQ
+ to power up the CPU, and then writes bit EDPRCR.CORENPDRQ for emulation
+ of CPU power down. As result, this can ensure the CPU power domain is
+ powered on properly during the period when access debug related registers;
+
+- Some designs will power down an entire cluster if all CPUs on the cluster
+ are powered down - including the parts of the debug registers that should
+ remain powered in the debug power domain. The bits in EDPRCR are not
+ respected in these cases, so these designs do not support debug over
+ power down in the way that the CoreSight / Debug designers anticipated.
+ This means that even checking EDPRSR has the potential to cause a bus hang
+ if the target register is unpowered.
+
+ In this case, accessing to the debug registers while they are not powered
+ is a recipe for disaster; so we need preventing CPU low power states at boot
+ time or when user enable module at the run time. Please see chapter
+ "How to use the module" for detailed usage info for this.
+
+
+Device Tree Bindings
+--------------------
+
+See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/coresight-cpu-debug.txt for details.
+
+
+How to use the module
+---------------------
+
+If you want to enable debugging functionality at boot time, you can add
+"coresight_cpu_debug.enable=1" to the kernel command line parameter.
+
+The driver also can work as module, so can enable the debugging when insmod
+module:
+# insmod coresight_cpu_debug.ko debug=1
+
+When boot time or insmod module you have not enabled the debugging, the driver
+uses the debugfs file system to provide a knob to dynamically enable or disable
+debugging:
+
+To enable it, write a '1' into /sys/kernel/debug/coresight_cpu_debug/enable:
+# echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/coresight_cpu_debug/enable
+
+To disable it, write a '0' into /sys/kernel/debug/coresight_cpu_debug/enable:
+# echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/coresight_cpu_debug/enable
+
+As explained in chapter "Clock and power domain", if you are working on one
+platform which has idle states to power off debug logic and the power
+controller cannot work well for the request from EDPRCR, then you should
+firstly constraint CPU idle states before enable CPU debugging feature; so can
+ensure the accessing to debug logic.
+
+If you want to limit idle states at boot time, you can use "nohlt" or
+"cpuidle.off=1" in the kernel command line.
+
+At the runtime you can disable idle states with below methods:
+
+Set latency request to /dev/cpu_dma_latency to disable all CPUs specific idle
+states (if latency = 0uS then disable all idle states):
+# echo "what_ever_latency_you_need_in_uS" > /dev/cpu_dma_latency
+
+Disable specific CPU's specific idle state:
+# echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$cpu/cpuidle/state$state/disable
+
