[ Upstream commit efc4c35b741af973de90f6826bf35d3b3ac36bf1 ]

Fix inconsistent error handling for sscanf() return value check.

Implicit boolean conversion is used instead of explicit return
value checks. The code checks if (!sscanf(...)) which is incorrect
because:
 1. sscanf returns the number of successfully parsed items
 2. On success, it returns 1 (one item passed)
 3. On failure, it returns 0 or EOF
 4. The check 'if (!sscanf(...))' is wrong because it treats
    success (1) as failure

All occurrences of sscanf() now uses explicit return value check.
With this behavior it returns '-EINVAL' when parsing fails (returns
0 or EOF), and continues when parsing succeeds (returns 1).

[ Upstream commit 7bda1910c4bccd4b8d4726620bb3d6bbfb62286e ]

The device becomes visible to userspace via device_register()
even before it fully initialized by idr_init(). If userspace
or another thread tries to register a zone immediately after
device_register(), the control_type_valid() will fail because
the control_type is not yet in the list. The IDR is not yet
initialized, so this race condition causes zone registration
failure.

Move idr_init() and list addition before device_register()
fix the race condition.

<title>powercap: intel_rapl: Do not change CLAMPING bit if ENABLE bit cannot be changed</title>

<id>urn:sha1:f110c609b0c5faec0b22ee45298aadef9cc7627c</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 964209202ebe1569c858337441e87ef0f9d71416 upstream.

PL1 cannot be disabled on some platforms. The ENABLE bit is still set
after software clears it. This behavior leads to a scenario where, upon
user request to disable the Power Limit through the powercap sysfs, the
ENABLE bit remains set while the CLAMPING bit is inadvertently cleared.

According to the Intel Software Developer's Manual, the CLAMPING bit,
"When set, allows the processor to go below the OS requested P states in
order to maintain the power below specified Platform Power Limit value."

Thus this means the system may operate at higher power levels than
intended on such platforms.

Enhance the code to check ENABLE bit after writing to it, and stop
further processing if ENABLE bit cannot be changed.

[ Upstream commit 93c66fbc280747ea700bd6199633d661e3c819b3 ]

powercap_register_control_type() calls device_register(), but does not
release the refcount of the device when it fails.

Call put_device() before returning an error to balance the refcount.

Since the kfree(control_type) will be done by powercap_release(), remove
the lines in powercap_register_control_type() before returning the error.

This bug was found by an experimental verifier that I am developing.

commit d05b5e0baf424c8c4b4709ac11f66ab726c8deaf upstream.

The current initialization of the struct x86_cpu_id via
pl4_support_ids[] is partial and wrong. It is initializing
"stepping" field with "X86_FEATURE_ANY" instead of "feature" field.

Use X86_MATCH_INTEL_FAM6_MODEL macro instead of initializing
each field of the struct x86_cpu_id for pl4_supported list of CPUs.
This X86_MATCH_INTEL_FAM6_MODEL macro internally uses another macro
X86_MATCH_VENDOR_FAM_MODEL_FEATURE for X86 based CPU matching with
appropriate initialized values.

[ Upstream commit 4658fe81b3f8afe8adf37734ec5fe595d90415c6 ]

After commit 3382388d7148 ("intel_rapl: abstract RAPL common code"),
accessing to IOSF_MBI interface is done in the RAPL common code.

Thus it is the CONFIG_INTEL_RAPL_CORE that has dependency of
CONFIG_IOSF_MBI, while CONFIG_INTEL_RAPL_MSR does not.

This problem was not exposed previously because all the previous RAPL
common code users, aka, the RAPL MSR and MMIO I/F drivers, have
CONFIG_IOSF_MBI selected.

Fix the CONFIG_IOSF_MBI dependency in RAPL code. This also fixes a build
time failure when the RAPL TPMI I/F driver is introduced without
selecting CONFIG_IOSF_MBI.

x86_64-linux-ld: vmlinux.o: in function `set_floor_freq_atom':
intel_rapl_common.c:(.text+0x2dac9b8): undefined reference to `iosf_mbi_write'
x86_64-linux-ld: intel_rapl_common.c:(.text+0x2daca66): undefined reference to `iosf_mbi_read'

Reference to iosf_mbi.h is also removed from the RAPL MSR I/F driver.

In the error path after calling dev_set_name(), the device
name is leaked. To fix this, calling dev_set_name() before
device_register(), and call put_device() if it returns error.

All the resources is released in powercap_release(), so it
can return from powercap_register_zone() directly.

Intel Xeon servers used to use a fixed energy resolution (15.3uj) for
Dram RAPL domain. But on SPR, Dram RAPL domain follows the standard
energy resolution as described in MSR_RAPL_POWER_UNIT.
