      acpi: Export the acpi_processor_get_performance_info · c705c78c
      Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 提交于
      The git commit d5aaffa9
      (cpufreq: handle cpufreq being disabled for all exported function)
      tightens the cpufreq API by returning errors when disable_cpufreq()
      had been called.
      
      The problem we are hitting is that the module xen-acpi-processor which
      uses the ACPI's functions: acpi_processor_register_performance,
      acpi_processor_preregister_performance, and acpi_processor_notify_smm
      fails at acpi_processor_register_performance with -22.
      
      Note that earlier during bootup in arch/x86/xen/setup.c there is also
      an call to cpufreq's API: disable_cpufreq().
      
      This is b/c we want the Linux kernel to parse the ACPI data, but leave
      the cpufreq decisions to the hypervisor.
      
      In v3.9 all the checks that d5aaffa9
      added are now hit and the calls to cpufreq_register_notifier will now
      fail. This means that acpi_processor_ppc_init ends up printing:
      
      "Warning: Processor Platform Limit not supported"
      
      and the acpi_processor_ppc_status is not set.
      
      The repercussions of that is that the call to
      acpi_processor_register_performance fails right away at:
      
      	if (!(acpi_processor_ppc_status & PPC_REGISTERED))
      
      and we don't progress any further on parsing and extracting the _P*
      objects.
      
      The only reason the Xen code called that function was b/c it was
      exported and the only way to gather the P-states. But we can also
      just make acpi_processor_get_performance_info be exported and not
      use acpi_processor_register_performance. This patch does so.

      ACPI: Check MSR valid bit before using P-state frequencies · 9855d8ce
      Stefan Bader 提交于
      To fix incorrect P-state frequencies which can happen on
      some AMD systems f594065f
         "ACPI: Add fixups for AMD P-state figures"
      introduced a quirk to obtain the correct values by reading
      from AMD specific MSRs.
      
      This did cause a regression when running a kernel using that
      quirk under Xen which does (currently) not pass through MSR
      reads to the HW. Instead the guest gets a 0 in return.
      And this seems to cause a failure to initialize the ondemand
      governour (hard to say for sure as all P-states appear to run
      at the same frequency).
      
      While this should also be fixed in the hypervisor (to allow
      a guest to read that MSR), this patch is intended to work
      around the issue in the meantime. In discussion it turned out
      that indeed real HW/BIOSes may choose to not set the valid bit
      and thus mark the P-state as invalid. So this could be considered
      a fix for broken BIOSes that also works around the issue on Xen.

      [CPUFREQ] use dynamic debug instead of custom infrastructure · 2d06d8c4
      Dominik Brodowski 提交于
      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... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      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.

      ACPI: Fix regression where _PPC is not read at boot even when ignore_ppc=0 · 455c0d71
      Darrick J. Wong 提交于
      Earlier, Ingo Molnar posted a patch to make it so that the kernel would avoid
      reading _PPC on his broken T60.  Unfortunately, it seems that with Thomas
      Renninger's patch last July to eliminate _PPC evaluations when the processor
      driver loads, the kernel never actually reads _PPC at all!  This is problematic
      if you happen to boot your non-T60 computer in a state where the BIOS _wants_
      _PPC to be something other than zero.
      
      So, put the _PPC evaluation back into acpi_processor_get_performance_info if
      ignore_ppc isn't 1.

      [ACPI/CPUFREQ] Introduce bios_limit per cpu cpufreq sysfs interface · e2f74f35
      Thomas Renninger 提交于
      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

      ACPI: Notify the _PPC evaluation status to the platform · d81c45e1
      Zhao Yakui 提交于
      According to the ACPI spec(section 8.4.4.3) OSPM should convey the _PPC
      evaluations status to the platform if there exists the _OST object.
      The _OST contains two arguments:
      	The first is the PERFORMANCE notificatin event.
      	The second is the status of _PPC object.
      OSPM will convey the _PPC evaluation status to the platform.
      Of course when the module parameter of "ignore_ppc" is added, OSPM won't
      evaluate the _PPC object. But it will call the _OST object.
      
      At the same time the _OST object will be evaluated only when the PERFORMANCE
      notification event is received.

      ACPI: sanity check _PSS frequency to prevent cpufreq crash · 34d531e6
      Len Brown 提交于
      When BIOS SETUP is changed to disable EIST, some BIOS
      hand the OS an un-initialized _PSS:
      
              Name (_PSS, Package (0x06)
              {
                  Package (0x06)
                  {
                      0x80000000,	// frequency [MHz]
                      0x80000000,	// power [mW]
                      0x80000000,	// latency [us]
                      0x80000000,	// BM latency [us]
                      0x80000000,	// control
                      0x80000000	// status
                  },
      	    ...
      
      These are outrageous values for frequency,
      power and latency, raising the question where to draw
      the line between legal and illegal.  We tend to survive
      garbage in the power and latency fields, but we can BUG_ON
      when garbage is in the frequency field.
      
      Cpufreq multiplies the frequency by 1000 and stores it in a u32 KHz.
      So disregard a _PSS with a frequency so large
      that it can't be represented by cpufreq.
