Many common initializations of struct policy are moved to core now and hence this driver doesn't need to do it. This patch removes such code. Most recent of those changes is to call ->get() in the core after calling ->init(). Signed-off-by: NViresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

Most of the CPUFreq drivers do similar things in .exit() and .verify() routines and .attr. So its better if we have generic routines for them which can be used by cpufreq drivers then.

If the hw supports intel_pstate and acpi_cpufreq, intel_pstate will get loaded first. acpi_cpufreq_init() will call acpi_cpufreq_early_init() and that will allocate perf data and init those perf data in ACPI core, (that will cover all CPUs). But later it will free them as cpufreq_register_driver(acpi_cpufreq) will fail as intel_pstate is already registered Use cpufreq_get_current_driver() to check if we can skip the acpi_cpufreq loading.

Chapter 14 of Documentation/CodingStyle says: The preferred form for passing a size of a struct is the following: p = kmalloc(sizeof(*p), ...); The alternative form where struct name is spelled out hurts readability and introduces an opportunity for a bug when the pointer variable type is changed but the corresponding sizeof that is passed to a memory allocator is not. This wasn't followed consistently in drivers/cpufreq, let's make it more consistent by always following this rule. Signed-off-by: NViresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

After commit ac212b69 (ACPI / processor: Use common hotplug infrastructure) the acpi-cpufreq module is not loaded automatically by udev which fails to match it against the x86cpu modalias. Still, it can be matched against ACPI processor device IDs, which even makes more sense, because it depends on the ACPI processor driver that uses those device IDs to bind to processor devices. For this reason, add ACPI processor device IDs to acpi-cpufreq. Signed-off-by: NRafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com> Acked-by: NViresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org>

Commit 4b31e774 (Always set P-state on initialization) fixed bug #4634 and caused the driver to always set the target P-State at least once since the initial P-State may not be the desired one. Commit 5a1c0228 (cpufreq: Avoid calling cpufreq driver's target() routine if target_freq == policy->cur) caused a regression in this behavior. This fixes the regression by setting policy->cur based on the CPU's target frequency rather than the CPU's current reported frequency (which may be different). This means that the P-State will be set initially if the CPU's target frequency is different from the governor's target frequency. This fixes an issue where setting the default governor to performance wouldn't correctly enable turbo mode on all cores.

The "index" field of struct cpufreq_frequency_table was never an index and isn't used at all by the cpufreq core. It only is useful for cpufreq drivers for their internal purposes.

With the addition of following patch: fcf80582 cpufreq: Simplify cpufreq_add_dev() cpufreq driver's .init() routine must initialize policy->cpus with mask of all possible CPUs (Online + Offline) that share the clock. Then the core would copy this mask onto policy->related_cpus and will reset policy->cpus to carry only online cpus. acpi-cpufreq driver wasn't updated with this assumption and so sometimes when we try to hot[un]plug CPUs at run time, sysfs directories get corrupted.

de3ed81d ("[CPUFREQ] Change link order of x86 cpufreq modules") changed cpufreq drivers link order so that powernow-k8 gets loaded first due to earlier K8s having BIOS bugs. However, now that acpi-cpufreq supports both AMD and Intel CPUs with HW P-states, we want to load it first, so that cases where acpi-cpufreq and powernow-k8 are both built-in and powernow-k8 initializing first, can be addressed. So, make sure that even if acpi-cpufreq gets loaded first, it errors out on K8s and powernow-k8 can be loaded then successfully.

The powernow-k8 driver supported a sysfs knob called "cpb", which was instantiated per CPU, but actually acted globally for the whole system. To keep some compatibility with this feature, we re-introduce this behavior here, but: a) only enable it on AMD CPUs and b) protect it with a Kconfig switch I'd like to consider this feature obsolete.

One feature present in powernow-k8 that isn't present in acpi-cpufreq is support for enabling or disabling AMD's core performance boost technology. This patch adds support to acpi-cpufreq, but also includes support for Intel's dynamic acceleration. The original boost disabling sysfs file was per CPU, but acted globally. Also the naming (cpb) was at least not intuitive. So lets introduce a single file simply called "boost", which sits once in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq. This should be the only way of using this feature, so add documentation about the rationale and the usage. A following patch will re-introduce the cpb knob for compatibility reasons on AMD CPUs. Per-CPU boost switching is possible, but not trivial and is thus postponed to a later patch series. Signed-off-by: NAndre Przywara <andre.przywara@amd.com> Signed-off-by: NRafael J.

To workaround some Windows specific behavior, the ACPI _PSD table on AMD desktop boards advertises all cores as dependent, meaning that they all can only use the same P-state. acpi-cpufreq strictly obeys this description, instantiating one CPU only and symlinking the others. But the hardware can have distinct frequencies for each core and powernow-k8 did it that way. So, in order to use the hardware to its full potential and keep the original powernow-k8 behavior, lets override the _PSD table setting on AMD hardware. We use the siblings table, as it matches the current hardware behavior. Signed-off-by: NAndre Przywara <andre.przywara@amd.com> Signed-off-by: NRafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>

With dynamic debug having gained the capability to report debug messages also during the boot process, it offers a far superior interface for debug messages than the custom cpufreq infrastructure. As a first step, remove the old cpufreq_debug_printk() function and replace it with a call to the generic pr_debug() function. How can dynamic debug be used on cpufreq? You need a kernel which has CONFIG_DYNAMIC_DEBUG enabled. To enabled debugging during runtime, mount debugfs and $ echo -n 'module cpufreq +p' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control for debugging the complete "cpufreq" module. To achieve the same goal during boot, append ddebug_query="module cpufreq +p" as a boot parameter to the kernel of your choice.

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.c: avoid cross-CPU interrupts by using smp_call_function_any() Presently acpi-cpufreq will perform the MSR read on the first CPU in the mask. That's inefficient if that CPU differs from the current CPU. Because we have to perform a cross-CPU call, but we could have run the rdmsr on the current CPU. So switch to using the new smp_call_function_any(), which will perform the call on the current CPU if that CPU is present in the mask (it is).

This interface is mainly intended (and implemented) for ACPI _PPC BIOS frequency limitations, but other cpufreq drivers can also use it for similar use-cases. Why is this needed: Currently it's not obvious why cpufreq got limited. People see cpufreq/scaling_max_freq reduced, but this could have happened by: - any userspace prog writing to scaling_max_freq - thermal limitations - hardware (_PPC in ACPI case) limitiations Therefore export bios_limit (in kHz) to: - Point the user that it's the BIOS (broken or intended) which limits frequency - Export it as a sysfs interface for userspace progs. While this was a rarely used feature on laptops, there will appear more and more server implemenations providing "Green IT" features like allowing the service processor to limit the frequency. People want to know about HW/BIOS frequency limitations. All ACPI P-state driven cpufreq drivers are covered with this patch: - powernow-k8 - powernow-k7 - acpi-cpufreq Tested with a patched DSDT which limits the first two cores (_PPC returns 1) via _PPC, exposed by bios_limit: # echo 2200000 >cpu2/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq # cat cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq 2600000 2600000 2200000 2200000 # #scaling_max_freq shows general user/thermal/BIOS limitations # cat cpu*/cpufreq/bios_limit 2600000 2600000 2800000 2800000 # #bios_limit only shows the HW/BIOS limitation CC: Pallipadi Venkatesh <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com> CC: Len Brown <lenb@kernel.org> CC: davej@codemonkey.org.uk CC: linux@dominikbrodowski.net Signed-off-by: NThomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Signed-off-by: NDave Jones <davej@redhat.com>

Removing the SMT/HT check, since the Errata doesn't mention Hyper-Threading. Adding in a printk, so that the user knows why acpi-cpufreq refuses to load. Also, once system is blacklisted, don't repeat checks to see if blacklisted. This also causes the message to only be printed once, rather than for each CPU. Signed-off-by: NJohn L.

This patch updates percpu related symbols in cpufreq such that percpu symbols are unique and don't clash with local symbols. This serves two purposes of decreasing the possibility of global percpu symbol collision and allowing dropping per_cpu__ prefix from percpu symbols. * drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c: s/policy_cpu/cpufreq_policy_cpu/ * drivers/cpufreq/freq_table.c: s/show_table/cpufreq_show_table/ * arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.c: s/drv_data/acfreq_data/ s/old_perf/acfreq_old_perf/ Partly based on Rusty Russell's "alloc_percpu: rename percpu vars which cause name clashes" patch.

This patch converts the existing power tracer into an event tracer, so that power events (C states and frequency changes) can be tracked via "perf". This also removes the perl script that was used to demo the tracer; its functionality is being replaced entirely with timechart.
