[ Upstream commit 51c99dd2c06b234575661fa1e0a1dea6c3ef566f ]

We can not call dev_pm_opp_of_cpumask_remove_table() freely anymore
since the latest OPP core updates as that uses reference counting to
free resources. There are cases where no static OPPs are added (using
DT) for a platform and trying to remove the OPP table may end up
decrementing refcount which is already zero and hence generating
warnings.

Lets track if we were able to add static OPPs or not and then only
remove the table based on that. Some reshuffling of code is also done to
do that.

commit da5e79bc70b84971d2b3a55fb252e34e51d81d48 upstream.

If the policy limits change between invocations of cs_dbs_update(),
the requested frequency value stored in dbs_info may not be updated
and the function may use a stale value of it next time.  Moreover, if
idle periods are takem into account by cs_dbs_update(), the requested
frequency value stored in dbs_info may be below the min policy limit,
which is incorrect.

To fix these problems, always update the requested frequency value
in dbs_info along with the local copy of it when the previous
requested frequency is beyond the policy limits and avoid decreasing
the requested frequency below the min policy limit when taking
idle periods into account.

commit d51aea13dd6753186a2bea7619029c460bdf0c4c upstream.

There is currently a warning when building the Kryo cpufreq driver into
the kernel image:

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x8aa424): Section mismatch in reference from
the function qcom_cpufreq_kryo_probe() to the function
.init.text:qcom_cpufreq_kryo_get_msm_id()
The function qcom_cpufreq_kryo_probe() references
the function __init qcom_cpufreq_kryo_get_msm_id().
This is often because qcom_cpufreq_kryo_probe lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of qcom_cpufreq_kryo_get_msm_id is wrong.

Remove the '__init' annotation from qcom_cpufreq_kryo_get_msm_id
so that there is no more mismatch warning.

Additionally, Nick noticed that the remove function was marked as
'__init' when it should really be marked as '__exit'.

commit 2a3eb51e30b9ac66fe1b75877627a7e4aaeca24a upstream.

If cppc_cpufreq.ko is deleted at the same time that tuned-adm is
changing profiles, there is a small chance that a race can occur
between cpufreq_dbs_governor_exit() and cpufreq_dbs_governor_limits()
resulting in a system failure when the latter tries to use
policy-&gt;governor_data that has been freed by the former.

This patch uses gov_dbs_data_mutex to synchronize access.

<title>cpufreq: intel_pstate: Limit the scope of HWP dynamic boost platforms</title>

<content type='text'>
Dynamic boosting of HWP performance on IO wake showed significant
improvement to IO workloads. This series was intended for Skylake Xeon
platforms only and feature was enabled by default based on CPU model
number.

But some Xeon platforms reused the Skylake desktop CPU model number. This
caused some undesirable side effects to some graphics workloads. Since
they are heavily IO bound, the increase in CPU performance decreased the
power available for GPU to do its computing and hence decrease in graphics
benchmark performance.

For example on a Skylake desktop, GpuTest benchmark showed average FPS
reduction from 529 to 506.

This change makes sure that HWP boost feature is only enabled for Skylake
server platforms by using ACPI FADT preferred PM Profile. If some desktop
users wants to get benefit of boost, they can still enable boost from
intel_pstate sysfs attribute "hwp_dynamic_boost".

<title>cpufreq: intel_pstate: Register when ACPI PCCH is present</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, intel_pstate doesn't register if _PSS is not present on
HP Proliant systems, because it expects the firmware to take over
CPU performance scaling in that case.  However, if ACPI PCCH is
present, the firmware expects the kernel to use it for CPU
performance scaling and the pcc-cpufreq driver is loaded for that.

Unfortunately, the firmware interface used by that driver is not
scalable for fundamental reasons, so pcc-cpufreq is way suboptimal
on systems with more than just a few CPUs.  In fact, it is better to
avoid using it at all.

For this reason, modify intel_pstate to look for ACPI PCCH if _PSS
is not present and register if it is there.  Also prevent the
pcc-cpufreq driver from trying to initialize itself if intel_pstate
has been registered already.

<title>cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix scaling max/min limits with Turbo 3.0</title>

<id>urn:sha1:ff7c9917143b3a6cf2fa61212a32d67cf259bf9c</id>
<content type='text'>
When scaling max/min settings are changed, internally they are converted
to a ratio using the max turbo 1 core turbo frequency. This works fine
when 1 core max is same irrespective of the core. But under Turbo 3.0,
this will not be the case. For example:
Core 0: max turbo pstate: 43 (4.3GHz)
Core 1: max turbo pstate: 45 (4.5GHz)
In this case 1 core turbo ratio will be maximum of all, so it will be
45 (4.5GHz). Suppose scaling max is set to 4GHz (ratio 40) for all cores
,then on core one it will be
 = max_state * policy-&gt;max / max_freq;
 = 43 * (4000000/4500000) = 38 (3.8GHz)
 = 38
which is 200MHz less than the desired.
On core2, it will be correctly set to ratio 40 (4GHz). Same holds true
for scaling min frequency limit. So this requires usage of correct turbo
max frequency for core one, which in this case is 4.3GHz. So we need to
adjust per CPU cpu-&gt;pstate.turbo_freq using the maximum HWP ratio of that
core.

This change uses the HWP capability of a core to adjust max turbo
frequency. But since Broadwell HWP doesn't use ratios in the HWP
capabilities, we have to use legacy max 1 core turbo ratio. This is not
a problem as the HWP capabilities don't differ among cores in Broadwell.
We need to check for non Broadwell CPU model for applying this change,
though.
