      x86 cpufreq, perf: Make trace_power_frequency cpufreq driver independent · 4c21adf2
      Thomas Renninger 提交于
      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

      intel_idle: native hardware cpuidle driver for latest Intel processors · 26717172
      Len Brown 提交于
      This EXPERIMENTAL driver supersedes acpi_idle on
      Intel Atom Processors, Intel Core i3/i5/i7 Processors
      and associated Intel Xeon processors.
      
      It does not support the Intel Core2 processor or earlier.
      
      For kernels configured with ACPI, CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=y
      allows intel_idle to probe before the ACPI processor driver.
      Booting with "intel_idle.max_cstate=0" disables intel_idle
      and the system will fall back on ACPI's "acpi_idle".
      
      Typical Linux distributions load ACPI processor module early,
      making CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=m not easily useful on ACPI platforms.
      
      intel_idle probes all processors at module_init time.
      Processors that are hot-added later will be limited
      to using C1 in idle.

      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.

      ioat: switch watchdog and reset handler from workqueue to timer · 09c8a5b8
      Dan Williams 提交于
      In order to support dynamic resizing of the descriptor ring or polling
      for a descriptor in the presence of a hung channel the reset handler
      needs to make progress while in a non-preemptible context.  The current
      workqueue implementation precludes polling channel reset completion
      under spin_lock().
      
      This conversion also allows us to return to opportunistic cleanup in the
      ioat2 case as the timer implementation guarantees at least one cleanup
      after every descriptor is submitted.  This means the worst case
      completion latency becomes the timer frequency (for exceptional
      circumstances), but with the benefit of avoiding busy waiting when the
      lock is contended.

      i7300_idle: allow testing on i5000-series hardware w/o re-compile · 2f102607
      Len Brown 提交于
      Testing the i7300_idle driver on i5000-series hardware required
      an edit to i7300_idle.h to "#define SUPPORT_I5000 1" and a re-build
      of both i7300_idle and ioat_dma.
      
      Replace that build-time scheme with a load-time module parameter:
      "7300_idle.forceload=1" to make it easier to test the driver
      on hardware that while not officially validated, works fine
      and is much more commonly available.
      
      By default (no modparam) the driver will continue to load
      only on the i7300.
      
      Note that ioat_dma runs a copy of i7300_idle's probe routine
      to know to reserve an IOAT channel for i7300_idle.
      This change makes ioat_dma do that always on the i5000,
      just like it does on the i7300.
