cpufreq: Add Loongson-3 CPUFreq driver support

2024-07-09T03:15:43+00:00

Some of LoongArch processors (Loongson-3 series) support DVFS, their IOCSR.FEATURES has IOCSRF_FREQSCALE set. And they has a micro-core in the package called SMC (System Management Controller), which can be used to detect temperature, control fans, scale frequency and voltage, etc. The Loongson-3 CPUFreq driver is very simple now, it communicate with SMC, get DVFS info, set target frequency from CPUFreq core, and so on. There is a command list to interact with SMC, widely-used commands in the CPUFreq driver include: CMD_GET_VERSION: Get SMC firmware version. CMD_GET_FEATURE: Get enabled SMC features. CMD_SET_FEATURE: Enable SMC features, such as basic DVFS, BOOST. CMD_GET_FREQ_LEVEL_NUM: Get the number of all frequency levels. CMD_GET_FREQ_BOOST_LEVEL: Get the first boost frequency level. CMD_GET_FREQ_LEVEL_INFO: Get the detail info of a frequency level. CMD_GET_FREQ_INFO: Get the current frequency. CMD_SET_FREQ_INFO: Set the target frequency. In future we will add automatic frequency scaling, which is similar to Intel's HWP (HardWare P-State).

arch: Remove Itanium (IA-64) architecture

2023-09-11T08:13:17+00:00

The Itanium architecture is obsolete, and an informal survey [0] reveals that any residual use of Itanium hardware in production is mostly HP-UX or OpenVMS based. The use of Linux on Itanium appears to be limited to enthusiasts that occasionally boot a fresh Linux kernel to see whether things are still working as intended, and perhaps to churn out some distro packages that are rarely used in practice. None of the original companies behind Itanium still produce or support any hardware or software for the architecture, and it is listed as 'Orphaned' in the MAINTAINERS file, as apparently, none of the engineers that contributed on behalf of those companies (nor anyone else, for that matter) have been willing to support or maintain the architecture upstream or even be responsible for applying the odd fix. The Intel firmware team removed all IA-64 support from the Tianocore/EDK2 reference implementation of EFI in 2018. (Itanium is the original architecture for which EFI was developed, and the way Linux supports it deviates significantly from other architectures.) Some distros, such as Debian and Gentoo, still maintain [unofficial] ia64 ports, but many have dropped support years ago. While the argument is being made [1] that there is a 'for the common good' angle to being able to build and run existing projects such as the Grid Community Toolkit [2] on Itanium for interoperability testing, the fact remains that none of those projects are known to be deployed on Linux/ia64, and very few people actually have access to such a system in the first place. Even if there were ways imaginable in which Linux/ia64 could be put to good use today, what matters is whether anyone is actually doing that, and this does not appear to be the case. There are no emulators widely available, and so boot testing Itanium is generally infeasible for ordinary contributors. GCC still supports IA-64 but its compile farm [3] no longer has any IA-64 machines. GLIBC would like to get rid of IA-64 [4] too because it would permit some overdue code cleanups. In summary, the benefits to the ecosystem of having IA-64 be part of it are mostly theoretical, whereas the maintenance overhead of keeping it supported is real. So let's rip off the band aid, and remove the IA-64 arch code entirely. This follows the timeline proposed by the Debian/ia64 maintainer [5], which removes support in a controlled manner, leaving IA-64 in a known good state in the most recent LTS release. Other projects will follow once the kernel support is removed.

cpufreq: apple-soc: Add new driver to control Apple SoC CPU P-states

2022-11-30T05:42:18+00:00

This driver implements CPU frequency scaling for Apple Silicon SoCs, including M1 (t8103), M1 Max/Pro/Ultra (t600x), and M2 (t8112). Each CPU cluster has its own register set, and frequency management is fully automated by the hardware; the driver only has to write one register. There is boost frequency support, but the hardware will only allow their use if only a subset of cores in a cluster are in non-deep-idle. Since we don't support deep idle yet, these frequencies are not achievable, but the driver supports them. They will remain disabled in the device tree until deep idle is implemented, to avoid confusing users. This driver does not yet implement the memory controller performance state tuning that usually accompanies higher CPU p-states. This will be done in a future patch.

cpufreq: amd-pstate: Introduce a new AMD P-State driver to support future processors

2021-12-30T17:51:39+00:00

AMD P-State is the AMD CPU performance scaling driver that introduces a new CPU frequency control mechanism on AMD Zen based CPU series in Linux kernel. The new mechanism is based on Collaborative processor performance control (CPPC) which is finer grain frequency management than legacy ACPI hardware P-States. Current AMD CPU platforms are using the ACPI P-states driver to manage CPU frequency and clocks with switching only in 3 P-states. AMD P-State is to replace the ACPI P-states controls, allows a flexible, low-latency interface for the Linux kernel to directly communicate the performance hints to hardware. AMD P-State leverages the Linux kernel governors such as *schedutil*, *ondemand*, etc. to manage the performance hints which are provided by CPPC hardware functionality. The first version for AMD P-State is to support one of the Zen3 processors, and we will support more in future after we verify the hardware and SBIOS functionalities. There are two types of hardware implementations for AMD P-State: one is full MSR support and another is shared memory support. It can use X86_FEATURE_CPPC feature flag to distinguish the different types. Using the new AMD P-State method + kernel governors (*schedutil*, *ondemand*, ...) to manage the frequency update is the most appropriate bridge between AMD Zen based hardware processor and Linux kernel, the processor is able to adjust to the most efficiency frequency according to the kernel scheduler loading.
