      cpufreq fix timer teardown in conservative governor
      
      The problem is that dbs_timer_exit() uses cancel_delayed_work() when it should
      use cancel_delayed_work_sync(). cancel_delayed_work() does not wait for the
      workqueue handler to exit.
      
      The ondemand governor does not seem to be affected because the
      "if (!dbs_info->enable)" check at the beginning of the workqueue handler returns
      immediately without rescheduling the work. The conservative governor in
      2.6.30-rc has the same check as the ondemand governor, which makes things
      usually run smoothly. However, if the governor is quickly stopped and then
      started, this could lead to the following race :
      
      dbs_enable could be reenabled and multiple do_dbs_timer handlers would run.
      This is why a synchronized teardown is required.
      
      Depends on patch
      cpufreq: remove rwsem lock from CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP call
      
      The following patch applies to 2.6.30-rc2. Stable kernels have a similar
      issue which should also be fixed, but the code changed between 2.6.29
      and 2.6.30, so this patch only applies to 2.6.30-rc.

      [CPUFREQ] Don't export governors for default governor · c4d14bc0
      Sven Wegener 提交于
      We don't need to export the governors for use as the default governor,
      because the default governor will be built-in anyway and we can access
      the symbol directly.
      
      This also fixes the following sparse warnings:

      Venki Pallipadi made a similar change to the ondemand governor a while

      cpufreq: Initialise default governor before use · 6915719b
      Johannes Weiner 提交于
      When the cpufreq driver starts up at boot time, it calls into the default
      governor which might not be initialised yet.  This hurts when the
      governor's worker function relies on memory that is not yet set up by its
      init function.
      
      This migrates all governors from module_init() to fs_initcall() when being
      the default, as was already done in cpufreq_performance when it was the
      only possible choice.  The performance governor is always initialized early
      because it might be used as fallback even when not being the default.
      
      Fixes at least one actual oops where ondemand is the default governor and
      cpufreq_governor_dbs() uses the uninitialised kondemand_wq work-queue
      during boot-time.

      [CPUFREQ] allow ondemand and conservative cpufreq governors to be used as default · 1c256245
      Thomas Renninger 提交于
      Depending on the transition latency of the HW for cpufreq switches, the
      ondemand or conservative governor cannot be used with certain cpufreq
      drivers.  Still the ondemand should be the default governor on a wide range
      of systems.  This patch allows this and lets the governor fallback to the
      performance governor at cpufreq driver load time, if the driver does not
      support fast enough frequency switching.
      
      Main benefit is that on e.g.  installation or other systems without
      userspace support a working dynamic cpufreq support can be achieved on most
      systems by simply loading the cpufreq driver.  This is especially essential
      for recent x86(_64) laptop hardware which may rely on working dynamic
      cpufreq OS support.

      [PATCH] remove many unneeded #includes of sched.h · cd354f1a
      Tim Schmielau 提交于
      After Al Viro (finally) succeeded in removing the sched.h #include in module.h
      recently, it makes sense again to remove other superfluous sched.h includes.
      There are quite a lot of files which include it but don't actually need
      anything defined in there.  Presumably these includes were once needed for
      macros that used to live in sched.h, but moved to other header files in the
      course of cleaning it up.
      
      To ease the pain, this time I did not fiddle with any header files and only
      removed #includes from .c-files, which tend to cause less trouble.
      
      Compile tested against 2.6.20-rc2 and 2.6.20-rc2-mm2 (with offsets) on alpha,
      arm, i386, ia64, mips, powerpc, and x86_64 with allnoconfig, defconfig,
      allmodconfig, and allyesconfig as well as a few randconfigs on x86_64 and all
      configs in arch/arm/configs on arm.  I also checked that no new warnings were
      introduced by the patch (actually, some warnings are removed that were emitted
      by unnecessarily included header files).

      [PATCH] Reorganize the cpufreq cpu hotplug locking to not be totally bizare · 153d7f3f
      Arjan van de Ven 提交于
      The patch below moves the cpu hotplugging higher up in the cpufreq
      layering; this is needed to avoid recursive taking of the cpu hotplug
      lock and to otherwise detangle the mess.
      
      The new rules are:
      1. you must do lock_cpu_hotplug() around the following functions:
         __cpufreq_driver_target
         __cpufreq_governor (for CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS operation only)
         __cpufreq_set_policy
      2. governer methods (.governer) must NOT take the lock_cpu_hotplug()
         lock in any way; they are called with the lock taken already
      3. if your governer spawns a thread that does things, like calling
         __cpufreq_driver_target, your thread must honor rule #1.
      4. the policy lock and other cpufreq internal locks nest within
         the lock_cpu_hotplug() lock.
      
      I'm not entirely happy about how the __cpufreq_governor rule ended up
      (conditional locking rule depending on the argument) but basically all
      callers pass this as a constant so it's not too horrible.
      
      The patch also removes the cpufreq_governor() function since during the
      locking audit it turned out to be entirely unused (so no need to fix it)
      
      The patch works on my testbox, but it could use more testing
      (otoh... it can't be much worse than the current code)

      [CPUFREQ] Fix ondemand vs suspend deadlock · 4ec223d0
      Venkatesh Pallipadi 提交于
      Rootcaused the bug to a deadlock in cpufreq and ondemand. Due to non-existent
      ordering between cpu_hotplug lock and dbs_mutex. Basically a race condition
      between cpu_down() and do_dbs_timer().
      
      cpu_down() flow:
      * cpu_down() call for CPU 1
      * Takes hot plug lock
      * Calls pre down notifier
      *     cpufreq notifier handler calls cpufreq_driver_target() which takes
            cpu_hotplug lock again. OK as cpu_hotplug lock is recursive in same
            process context
      * CPU 1 goes down
      * Calls post down notifier
      *     cpufreq notifier handler calls ondemand event stop which takes dbs_mutex
      
      So, cpu_hotplug lock is taken before dbs_mutex in this flow.
      
      do_dbs_timer is triggerred by a periodic timer event.
      It first takes dbs_mutex and then takes cpu_hotplug lock in
      cpufreq_driver_target().
      Note the reverse order here compared to above. So, if this timer event happens
      at right moment during cpu_down, system will deadlok.
      
      Attached patch fixes the issue for both ondemand and conservative.
