      hrtimer: peek at the timer queue just before going idle · 2e94d1f7
      Arjan van de Ven 提交于
      As part of going idle, we already look at the time of the next timer event to determine
      which C-state to select etc.
      
      This patch adds functionality that causes the timers that are past their
      soft expire time, to fire at this time, before we calculate the next wakeup
      time. This functionality will thus avoid wakeups by running timers before
      going idle rather than specially waking up for it.

      cpuidle acpi driver: fix oops on AC<->DC · dcb84f33
      Venkatesh Pallipadi 提交于
      cpuidle and acpi driver interaction bug with the way cpuidle_register_driver()
      is called. Due to this bug, there will be oops on
      AC<->DC on some systems, where they support C-states in one DC and not in AC.
      
      The current code does
      ON BOOT:
      	Look at CST and other C-state info to see whether more than C1 is
      	supported. If it is, then acpi processor_idle does a
      	cpuidle_register_driver() call, which internally enables the device.
      
      ON CST change notification (AC<->DC) and on suspend-resume:
      	acpi driver temporarily disables device, updates the device with
      	any new C-states, and reenables the device.
      
      The problem is is on boot, there are no C2, C3 states supported and we skip
      the register. Later on AC<->DC, we may get a CST notification and we try
      to reevaluate CST and enabled the device, without actually registering it.
      This causes breakage as we try to create /sys fs sub directory, without the
      parent directory which is created at register time.
      
      Thanks to Sanjeev for reporting the problem here.

      cpuidle: build fix for non-x86 · a6869cc4
      Venki Pallipadi 提交于
      The last posted version of this patch gave compile error
      on IA64. So, here goes yet another rewrite of the patch.
      
      Convert cpu_idle_wait() to cpuidle_kick_cpus() which is
      SMP-only, and gives error on non supported CPU.
      
      Changes from last patch sent by Kevin:
      Moved the definition of kick_cpus back to cpuidle.c from cpuidle.h:
      * Having it in .h gives #error on archs which includes the header file without
        actually having CPU_IDLE configured. To make it work in .h, we need one more
        #ifdef around that code which makes it messy.
      * Also, the function is only called from one file. So, it can be in declared
        statically in .c rather than making it available to everyone who includes
        the .h file.

      pm qos infrastructure and interface · d82b3518
      Mark Gross 提交于
      The following patch is a generalization of the latency.c implementation done
      by Arjan last year.  It provides infrastructure for more than one parameter,
      and exposes a user mode interface for processes to register pm_qos
      expectations of processes.
      
      This interface provides a kernel and user mode interface for registering
      performance expectations by drivers, subsystems and user space applications on
      one of the parameters.
      
      Currently we have {cpu_dma_latency, network_latency, network_throughput} as
      the initial set of pm_qos parameters.
      
      The infrastructure exposes multiple misc device nodes one per implemented
      parameter.  The set of parameters implement is defined by pm_qos_power_init()
      and pm_qos_params.h.  This is done because having the available parameters
      being runtime configurable or changeable from a driver was seen as too easy to
      abuse.
      
      For each parameter a list of performance requirements is maintained along with
      an aggregated target value.  The aggregated target value is updated with
      changes to the requirement list or elements of the list.  Typically the
      aggregated target value is simply the max or min of the requirement values
      held in the parameter list elements.
      
      >From kernel mode the use of this interface is simple:
      
      pm_qos_add_requirement(param_id, name, target_value):
      
        Will insert a named element in the list for that identified PM_QOS
        parameter with the target value.  Upon change to this list the new target is
        recomputed and any registered notifiers are called only if the target value
        is now different.
      
      pm_qos_update_requirement(param_id, name, new_target_value):
      
        Will search the list identified by the param_id for the named list element
        and then update its target value, calling the notification tree if the
        aggregated target is changed.  with that name is already registered.
      
      pm_qos_remove_requirement(param_id, name):
      
        Will search the identified list for the named element and remove it, after
        removal it will update the aggregate target and call the notification tree
        if the target was changed as a result of removing the named requirement.
      
      >From user mode:
      
        Only processes can register a pm_qos requirement.  To provide for
        automatic cleanup for process the interface requires the process to register
        its parameter requirements in the following way:
      
        To register the default pm_qos target for the specific parameter, the
        process must open one of /dev/[cpu_dma_latency, network_latency,
        network_throughput]
      
        As long as the device node is held open that process has a registered
        requirement on the parameter.  The name of the requirement is
        "process_<PID>" derived from the current->pid from within the open system
        call.
      
        To change the requested target value the process needs to write a s32
        value to the open device node.  This translates to a
        pm_qos_update_requirement call.
      
        To remove the user mode request for a target value simply close the device
        node.

          CPUIDLE: handle BM detection inside the ACPI Processor driver
      
          Update the ACPI processor driver to detect BM activity and
          limit state entry depth internally, rather than exposing such
          requirements to CPUIDLE.  As a result, CPUIDLE can drop this
          ACPI-specific interface and become more platform independent.  BM
          activity is now handled much more aggressively than it was in the
          original implementation, so some testing coverage may be needed to
          verify that this doesn't introduce any DMA buffer under-run issues.

          cpuidle: re-write
      
          Some portions have been rewritten to make the code cleaner and lighter
          weight.  The following is a list of changes:
      
          1.) the state name is now included in the sysfs interface
          2.) detection, hotplug, and available state modifications are handled by
          CPUIDLE drivers directly
          3.) the CPUIDLE idle handler is only ever installed when at least one
          cpuidle_device is enabled and ready
          4.) the menu governor BM code no longer overflows
          5.) the sysfs attributes are now printed as unsigned integers, avoiding
          negative values
          6.) a variety of other small cleanups
      
          Also, Idle drivers are no longer swappable during runtime through the
          CPUIDLE sysfs inteface.  On i386 and x86_64 most idle handlers (e.g.
          poll, mwait, halt, etc.) don't benefit from an infrastructure that
          supports multiple states, so I think using a more general case idle
          handler selection mechanism would be cleaner.

          We only look at early breakouts that result in wakeups shorter than idle

          the particular idle state upto a timeout period.

          cpuidle: add the 'menu' governor
      
          Here is my first take at implementing an idle PM governor that takes
          full advantage of NO_HZ.  I call it the 'menu' governor because it
          considers the full list of idle states before each entry.
      
          I've kept the implementation fairly simple.  It attempts to guess the
          next residency time and then chooses a state that would meet at least
          the break-even point between power savings and entry cost.  To this end,
          it selects the deepest idle state that satisfies the following
          constraints:
               1. If the idle time elapsed since bus master activity was detected
                  is below a threshold (currently 20 ms), then limit the selection
                  to C2-type or above.
               2. Do not choose a state with a break-even residency that exceeds
                  the expected time remaining until the next timer interrupt.
               3. Do not choose a state with a break-even residency that exceeds
                  the elapsed time between the last pair of break events,
                  excluding timer interrupts.
      
          This governor has an advantage over "ladder" governor because it
          proactively checks how much time remains until the next timer interrupt
          using the tick infrastructure.  Also, it handles device interrupt
          activity more intelligently by not including timer interrupts in break
          event calculations.  Finally, it doesn't make policy decisions using the
          number of state entries, which can have variable residency times (NO_HZ
          makes these potentially very large), and instead only considers sleep
          time deltas.
      
          The menu governor can be selected during runtime using the cpuidle sysfs
          interface like so:
          "echo "menu" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuidle/current_governor"

          cpuidle: export time until next timer interrupt using NO_HZ
      
          Expose information about the time remaining until the next
          timer interrupt expires by utilizing the dynticks infrastructure.
          Also modify the main idle loop to allow dynticks to handle
          non-interrupt break events (e.g. DMA).  Finally, expose sleep ticks
          information to external code.  Thomas Gleixner is responsible for much
          of the code in this patch.  However, I've made some additional changes,
          so I'm probably responsible if there are any bugs or oversights :)

          cpuidle: governor API changes
      
          This patch prepares cpuidle for the menu governor.  It adds an optional
          stage after idle state entry to give the governor an opportunity to
          check why the state was exited.  Also it makes sure the idle loop
          returns after each state entry, allowing the appropriate dynticks code
          to run.

          cpuidle: hang fix
      
          Prevent hang on x86-64, when ACPI processor driver is added as a module on
          a system that does not support C-states.
      
          x86-64 expects all idle handlers to enable interrupts before returning from
          idle handler.  This is due to enter_idle(), exit_idle() races.  Make
          cpuidle_idle_call() confirm to this when there is no pm_idle_old.
      
          Also, cpuidle look at the return values of attch_driver() and set
          current_driver to NULL if attach fails on all CPUs.

          cpuidle take2: Hookup ACPI C-states driver with cpuidle
      
          Hookup ACPI C-states onto generic cpuidle infrastructure.
      
          drivers/acpi/procesor_idle.c is now a ACPI C-states driver that registers as
          a driver in cpuidle infrastructure and the policy part is removed from
          drivers/acpi/processor_idle.c. We use governor in cpuidle instead.

          cpuidle take2: Core cpuidle infrastructure
      
          Announcing 'cpuidle', a new CPU power management infrastructure to manage
          idle CPUs in a clean and efficient manner.
          cpuidle separates out the drivers that can provide support for multiple types
          of idle states and policy governors that decide on what idle state to use
          at run time.
          A cpuidle driver can support multiple idle states based on parameters like
          varying power consumption, wakeup latency, etc (ACPI C-states for example).
          A cpuidle governor can be usage model specific (laptop, server,
          laptop on battery etc).
          Main advantage of the infrastructure being, it allows independent development
          of drivers and governors and allows for better CPU power management.
      
          A huge thanks to Adam Belay and Shaohua Li who were part of this mini-project
          since its beginning and are greatly responsible for this patchset.
      
          This patch:
      
          Core cpuidle infrastructure.
          Introduces a new abstraction layer for cpuidle:
          * which manages drivers that can support multiple idles states. Drivers
            can be generic or particular to specific hardware/platform
          * allows pluging in multiple policy governors that can take idle state policy
            decision
          * The core also has a set of sysfs interfaces with which administrato can know
            about supported drivers and governors and switch them at run time.
