      x86 idle: deprecate "no-hlt" cmdline param · cdaab4a0
      由 Len Brown 提交于 
      We'd rather that modern machines not check if HLT works on
every entry into idle, for the benefit of machines that had
marginal electricals 15-years ago.  If those machines are still running
the upstream kernel, they can use "idle=poll".  The only difference
will be that they'll now invoke HLT in machine_hlt().

      x86 idle APM: deprecate CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE · 99c63221
      由 Len Brown 提交于 
      We don't want to export the pm_idle function pointer to modules.
Currently CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE w/ CONFIG_APM_MODULE forces us to.

CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE is of dubious value, it runs only on 32-bit
uniprocessor laptops that are over 10 years old.  It calls into
the BIOS during idle, and is known to cause a number of machines
to fail.

Removing CONFIG_APM_CPU_IDLE and will allow us to stop exporting
pm_idle.  Any systems that were calling into the APM BIOS
at run-time will simply use HLT instead.

      x86 idle floppy: deprecate disable_hlt() · 3b70b2e5
      由 Len Brown 提交于 
      Plan to remove floppy_disable_hlt in 2012, an ancient
workaround with comments that it should be removed.

This allows us to remove clutter and a run-time branch
from the idle code.

WARN_ONCE() on invocation until it is removed.

      x86 idle: EXPORT_SYMBOL(default_idle, pm_idle) only when APM demands it · 06ae40ce
      由 Len Brown 提交于 
      In the long run, we don't want default_idle() or (pm_idle)() to
be exported outside of process.c.  Start by not exporting them
to modules, unless the APM build demands it.

      x86 idle: clarify AMD erratum 400 workaround · 02c68a02
      由 Len Brown 提交于 
      The workaround for AMD erratum 400 uses the term "c1e" falsely suggesting:
1. Intel C1E is somehow involved
2. All AMD processors with C1E are involved

Use the string "amd_c1e" instead of simply "c1e" to clarify that
this workaround is specific to AMD's version of C1E.
Use the string "e400" to clarify that the workaround is specific
to AMD processors with Erratum 400.

This patch is text-substitution only, with no functional change.

      idle governor: Avoid lock acquisition to read pm_qos before entering idle · 333c5ae9
      由 Tim Chen 提交于 
      Thanks to the reviews and comments by Rafael, James, Mark and Andi.
Here's version 2 of the patch incorporating your comments and also some
update to my previous patch comments.

I noticed that before entering idle state, the menu idle governor will
look up the current pm_qos target value according to the list of qos
requests received.  This look up currently needs the acquisition of a
lock to access the list of qos requests to find the qos target value,
slowing down the entrance into idle state due to contention by multiple
cpus to access this list.  The contention is severe when there are a lot
of cpus waking and going into idle.  For example, for a simple workload
that has 32 pair of processes ping ponging messages to each other, where
64 cpu cores are active in test system, I see the following profile with
37.82% of cpu cycles spent in contention of pm_qos_lock:

-     37.82%          swapper  [kernel.kallsyms]          [k]
_raw_spin_lock_irqsave
   - _raw_spin_lock_irqsave
      - 95.65% pm_qos_request
           menu_select
           cpuidle_idle_call
         - cpu_idle
              99.98% start_secondary

A better approach will be to cache the updated pm_qos target value so
reading it does not require lock acquisition as in the patch below.
With this patch the contention for pm_qos_lock is removed and I saw a
2.2X increase in throughput for my message passing workload.

      cpuidle: menu: fixed wrapping timers at 4.294 seconds · 7467571f
      由 Tero Kristo 提交于 
      Cpuidle menu governor is using u32 as a temporary datatype for storing
nanosecond values which wrap around at 4.294 seconds. This causes errors
in predicted sleep times resulting in higher than should be C state
selection and increased power consumption. This also breaks cpuidle
state residency statistics.
