and fix the broken case if a core's frequency depends on others. trace_power_frequency was only implemented in a rather ungeneric way in acpi-cpufreq driver's target() function only. -> Move the call to trace_power_frequency to cpufreq.c:cpufreq_notify_transition() where CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier is triggered. This will support power frequency tracing by all cpufreq drivers trace_power_frequency did not trace frequency changes correctly when the userspace governor was used or when CPU cores' frequency depend on each other. -> Moving this into the CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifier and pass the cpu which gets switched automatically fixes this. Robert Schoene provided some important fixes on top of my initial quick shot version which are integrated in this patch: - Forgot some changes in power_end trace (TP_printk/variable names) - Variable dummy in power_end must now be cpu_id - Use static 64 bit variable instead of unsigned int for cpu_id Signed-off-by: NThomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> CC: davej@redhat.com CC: arjan@infradead.org CC: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org CC: robert.schoene@tu-dresden.de Tested-by: robert.schoene@tu-dresden.de Signed-off-by: NDave Jones <davej@redhat.com>

Commit 0224cf4c (sched: Intoduce get_cpu_iowait_time_us()) broke things by not making sure preemption was indeed disabled by the callers of nr_iowait_cpu() which took the iowait value of the current cpu. This resulted in a heap of preempt warnings. Cure this by making nr_iowait_cpu() take a cpu number and fix up the callers to pass in the right number.

Currently, the menu governor uses the (corrected) next timer as key item for predicting the idle duration. It turns out that there are specific cases where this breaks down: There are cases where we have a very repetitive pattern of idle durations, where the idle period is pretty much the same, for reasons completely unrelated to the next timer event. Examples of such repeating patterns are network loads with irq mitigation, the mouse moving but in theory also the wifi beacons. This patch adds a relatively simple detector for such repeating patterns, where the standard deviation of the last 8 idle periods is compared to a threshold. With this extra predictor in place, measurements show that the DECAY factor can now be increased (the decaying average will now decay slower) to get an even more stable result.

This patch changes the string based list management to a handle base implementation to help with the hot path use of pm-qos, it also renames much of the API to use "request" as opposed to "requirement" that was used in the initial implementation. I did this because request more accurately represents what it actually does. Also, I added a string based ABI for users wanting to use a string interface. So if the user writes 0xDDDDDDDD formatted hex it will be accepted by the interface. (someone asked me for it and I don't think it hurts anything.)

commit 672917dc ("cpuidle: menu governor: reduce latency on exit") added an optimization, where the analysis on the past idle period moved from the end of idle, to the beginning of the new idle. Unfortunately, this optimization had a bug where it zeroed one key variable for new use, that is needed for the analysis. The fix is simple, zero the variable after doing the work from the previous idle. During the audit of the code that found this issue, another issue was also found; the ->measured_us data structure member is never set, a local variable is always used instead.

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.

In the case where cpuidle_idle_call() returns before changing state due to a need_resched(), it was returning with IRQs disabled. The idle path assumes that the platform specific idle code returns with interrupts enabled (although this too is undocumented AFAICT) and on ARM we have a WARN_ON(!(irqs_disabled()) when returning from the idle loop, so the user-visible effects were only a warning since interrupts were eventually re-enabled later. On x86, this same problem exists, but there is no WARN_ON() to detect it. As on ARM, the interrupts are eventually re-enabled, so I'm not sure of any actual bugs triggered by this. It's primarily a correctness/consistency fix. This patch ensures IRQs are (re)enabled before returning.

Fix the menu idle governor which balances power savings, energy efficiency and performance impact. The reason for a reworked governor is that there have been serious performance issues reported with the existing code on Nehalem server systems. To show this I'm sure Andrew wants to see benchmark results: (benchmark is "fio", "no cstates" is using "idle=poll") no cstates current linux new algorithm 1 disk 107 Mb/s 85 Mb/s 105 Mb/s 2 disks 215 Mb/s 123 Mb/s 209 Mb/s 12 disks 590 Mb/s 320 Mb/s 585 Mb/s In various power benchmark measurements, no degredation was found by our measurement&diagnostics team. Obviously a small percentage more power was used in the "fio" benchmark, due to the much higher performance. While it would be a novel idea to describe the new algorithm in this commit message, I cheaped out and described it in comments in the code instead.

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.

commit 9b12e18c 'ACPI: cpuidle: Support C1 idle time accounting' was implicated in a 100% C0 idle regression. http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10076 It pointed out a potential problem where the menu governor may get confused by the C-state residency time from poll idle or C1 idle, where this timing info is not accurate. This inaccuracy is due to interrupts being handled before we account for C-state exit. Do not mark TIME_VALID for CO poll state. Mark C1 time as valid only with the MWAIT (CSTATE_FFH) entry method. This makes governors use the timing information only when it is correct and eliminates any wrong policy decisions that may result from invalid timing information.

Add a new sysfs entry under cpuidle states. desc - can be used by driver to communicate to userspace any specific information about the state. This helps in identifying the exact hardware C-states behind the ACPI C-state definition. Idea is to export this through powertop, which will help to map the C-state reported by powertop to actual hardware C-state.

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.

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.
