The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. This removes all the drivers/cpufreq uses of the __cpuinit macros from all C files.

commit a66b2e (cpufreq: Preserve sysfs files across suspend/resume) has unfortunately caused several things in the cpufreq subsystem to break subtly after a suspend/resume cycle. The intention of that patch was to retain the file permissions of the cpufreq related sysfs files across suspend/resume. To achieve that, the commit completely removed the calls to cpufreq_add_dev() and __cpufreq_remove_dev() during suspend/resume transitions. But the problem is that those functions do 2 kinds of things: 1. Low-level initialization/tear-down that are critical to the correct functioning of cpufreq-core. 2. Kobject and sysfs related initialization/teardown. Ideally we should have reorganized the code to cleanly separate these two responsibilities, and skipped only the sysfs related parts during suspend/resume. Since we skipped the entire callbacks instead (which also included some CPU and cpufreq-specific critical components), cpufreq subsystem started behaving erratically after suspend/resume. So revert the commit to fix the regression. We'll revisit and address the original goal of that commit separately, since it involves quite a bit of careful code reorganization and appears to be non-trivial. (While reverting the commit, note that another commit f51e1eb6 (cpufreq: Fix cpufreq regression after suspend/resume) already reverted part of the original set of changes. So revert only the remaining ones). Signed-off-by: NSrivatsa S.

Commit 7c30ed ("cpufreq: make sure frequency transitions are serialized") interacts poorly with systems that have a single core freqency for all cores. On such systems we have a single policy for all cores with several CPUs. When we do a frequency transition the governor calls the pre and post change notifiers which causes cpufreq_notify_transition() per CPU. Since the policy is the same for all of them all CPUs after the first and the warnings added are generated by checking a per-policy flag the warnings will be triggered for all cores after the first. Fix this by allowing notifier to be called for n times. Where n is the number of cpus in policy->cpus.

Commits fcf80582 (cpufreq: Simplify cpufreq_add_dev()) and aa77a527 (cpufreq: acpi-cpufreq: Don't set policy->related_cpus from .init()) changed the contents of the "related_cpus" sysfs attribute on systems where acpi-cpufreq is used and user space can't get the list of CPUs which are in the same hardware coordination CPU domain (provided by the ACPI AML method _PSD) via "related_cpus" any more. To make up for that loss add a new sysfs attribute "freqdomian_cpus" for the acpi-cpufreq driver which exposes the list of CPUs in the same domain regardless of whether it is coordinated by hardware or software.

Whenever we are changing frequency of a cpu, we are calling PRECHANGE and POSTCHANGE notifiers. They must be serialized. i.e. PRECHANGE or POSTCHANGE shouldn't be called twice contiguously. This can happen due to bugs in users of __cpufreq_driver_target() or actual cpufreq drivers who are sending these notifiers. This patch adds some protection against this. Now, we keep track of the last transaction and see if something went wrong. Signed-off-by: NViresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NRafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

Cpufreq governors' stop and start operations should be carried out in sequence. Otherwise, there will be unexpected behavior, like in the example below. Suppose there are 4 CPUs and policy->cpu=CPU0, CPU1/2/3 are linked to CPU0. The normal sequence is: 1) Current governor is userspace. An application tries to set the governor to ondemand. It will call __cpufreq_set_policy() in which it will stop the userspace governor and then start the ondemand governor. 2) Current governor is userspace. The online of CPU3 runs on CPU0. It will call cpufreq_add_policy_cpu() in which it will first stop the userspace governor, and then start it again. If the sequence of the above two cases interleaves, it becomes: 1) Application stops userspace governor 2) Hotplug stops userspace governor which is a problem, because the governor shouldn't be stopped twice in a row. What happens next is: 3) Application starts ondemand governor 4) Hotplug starts a governor In step 4, the hotplug is supposed to start the userspace governor, but now the governor has been changed by the application to ondemand, so the ondemand governor is started once again, which is incorrect. The solution is to prevent policy governors from being stopped multiple times in a row. A governor should only be stopped once for one policy. After it has been stopped, no more governor stop operations should be executed. Also add a mutex to serialize governor operations. [rjw: Changelog.

The file permissions of cpufreq per-cpu sysfs files are not preserved across suspend/resume because we internally go through the CPU Hotplug path which reinitializes the file permissions on CPU online. But the user is not supposed to know that we are using CPU hotplug internally within suspend/resume (IOW, the kernel should not silently wreck the user-set file permissions across a suspend cycle). Therefore, we need to preserve the file permissions as they are across suspend/resume. The simplest way to achieve that is to just not touch the sysfs files at all - ie., just ignore the CPU hotplug notifications in the suspend/resume path (_FROZEN) in the cpufreq hotplug callback.

__cpufreq_governor() must be called with a correct policy->cpus mask. In __cpufreq_remove_dev() we initially clear policy->cpus with cpumask_clear_cpu() and then call __cpufreq_governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_POLICY_EXIT). If the governor is doing some per-cpu stuff in EXIT callback, this can create uncertain behavior. Generic governors in drivers/cpufreq/ doesn't do any per-cpu stuff in EXIT callback and so we don't face any issues currently. But its better to keep the code clean, so we don't face any issues in future. Now, we call cpumask_clear_cpu() only when multiple cpus are managed by policy.

Currently, there can't be multiple instances of single governor_type. If we have a multi-package system, where we have multiple instances of struct policy (per package), we can't have multiple instances of same governor. i.e. We can't have multiple instances of ondemand governor for multiple packages. Governors directory in sysfs is created at /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ governor-name/. Which again reflects that there can be only one instance of a governor_type in the system. This is a bottleneck for multicluster system, where we want different packages to use same governor type, but with different tunables. This patch uses the infrastructure provided by earlier patch and implements init/exit routines for ondemand and conservative governors.

Because we are required to allocate governor's resources dynamically now, we must do it at policy creation and end. And so got CPUFREQ_GOV_POLICY_INIT/EXIT.

Scaling drivers that implement cpufreq_driver.setpolicy() have internal governors that do not signal changes via cpufreq_notify_transition() so the frequncy in the policy will almost certainly be different than the current frequncy.

Scaling drivers that implement the cpufreq_driver.setpolicy() versus the cpufreq_driver.target() interface do not set policy->cur. Normally policy->cur is set during the call to cpufreq_driver.target() when the frequnecy request is made by the governor. If the scaling driver implements cpufreq_driver.setpolicy() and cpufreq_driver.get() interfaces use cpufreq_driver.get() to retrieve the current frequency.

cpufreq core uses two locks: - cpufreq_driver_lock: General lock for driver and cpufreq_cpu_data array. - cpu_policy_rwsemfix locking: per CPU reader-writer semaphore designed to cure all cpufreq/hotplug/workqueue/etc related lock issues. These locks were not used properly and are placed against their principle (present before their definition) at various places. This patch is an attempt to fix their use.

On multi-policy systems there is a single instance of governor for both the policies (if same governor is chosen for both policies). With the code update from following patches: 8eeed095 cpufreq: governors: Get rid of dbs_data->enable field b394058f cpufreq: governors: Reset tunables only for cpufreq_unregister_governor() We are creating/removing sysfs directory of governor for for every call to GOV_START and STOP. This would fail for multi-policy system as there is a per-policy call to START/STOP. This patch reuses the governor->initialized variable to detect total users of governor.

"cpufreq" directory in policy->cpu is never created using sysfs_create_link(), but using kobject_init_and_add(). And so we shouldn't call sysfs_remove_link() for policy->cpu(). sysfs stuff for policy->cpu is automatically removed when we call kobject_put() for dying policy.

Currently, whenever governor->governor() is called for CPUFRREQ_GOV_START event we reset few tunables of governor. Which isn't correct, as this routine is called for every cpu hot-[un]plugging event. We should actually be resetting these only when the governor module is removed and re-installed. Signed-off-by: NViresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

Currently cpufreq_add_dev() firsts allocates policy, calls driver->init() and then checks if this CPU is already managed or not. And if it is already managed, its policy is freed. We can save all this if we somehow know that CPU is managed or not in advance. policy->related_cpus contains the list of all valid sibling CPUs of policy->cpu. We can check this to see if the current CPU is already managed. From now on, platforms don't really need to set related_cpus from their init() routines, as the same work is done by core too. If a platform driver needs to set the related_cpus mask with some additional CPUs, other than CPUs present in policy->cpus, they are free to do it, though, as we don't override anything.

__cpufreq_remove_dev() is called on multiple occasions: cpufreq_driver unregister and cpu removals. Current implementation of this routine is overly complex without much need. If the cpu to be removed is the policy->cpu, we remove the policy first and add all other cpus again from policy->cpus and then finally call __cpufreq_remove_dev() again to remove the cpu to be deleted. Haahhhh.. There exist a simple solution to removal of a cpu: - Simply use the old policy structure - update its fields like: policy->cpu, etc. - notify any users of cpufreq, which depend on changing policy->cpu Hence this patch, which tries to implement the above theory. It is tested well by myself on ARM big.LITTLE TC2 SoC, which has 5 cores (2 A15 and 3 A7). Both A15's share same struct policy and all A7's share same policy structure.

This is how the core works: cpufreq_driver_unregister() - subsys_interface_unregister() - for_each_cpu() call cpufreq_remove_dev(), i.e. 0,1,2,3,4 when we unregister. cpufreq_remove_dev(): - Remove policy node - Call cpufreq_add_dev() for next cpu, sharing mask with removed cpu. i.e. When cpu 0 is removed, we call it for cpu 1. And when called for cpu 2, we call it for cpu 3. - cpufreq_add_dev() would call cpufreq_driver->init() - init would return mask as AND of 2, 3 and 4 for cluster A7. - cpufreq core would do online_cpu && policy->cpus Here is the BUG(). Because cpu hasn't died but we have just unregistered the cpufreq driver, online cpu would still have cpu 2 in it. And so thing go bad again. Solution: Keep cpumask of cpus that are registered with cpufreq core and clear cpus when we get a call from subsys_interface_unregister() via cpufreq_remove_dev().
