cpufreq: Add strict_target to struct cpufreq_policy

2020-11-18T18:22:30+00:00

commit ea9364bbadf11f0c55802cf11387d74f524cee84 upstream. Add a new field to be set when the CPUFREQ_GOV_STRICT_TARGET flag is set for the current governor to struct cpufreq_policy, so that the drivers needing to check CPUFREQ_GOV_STRICT_TARGET do not have to access the governor object during every frequency transition.

cpufreq: Introduce CPUFREQ_GOV_STRICT_TARGET

2020-11-18T18:22:30+00:00

commit 218f66870181bec7aaa6e3c72f346039c590c3c2 upstream. Introduce a new governor flag, CPUFREQ_GOV_STRICT_TARGET, for the governors that want the target frequency to be set exactly to the given value without leaving any room for adjustments on the hardware side and set this flag for the powersave and performance governors.

cpufreq: Introduce governor flags

2020-11-18T18:22:30+00:00

commit 9a2a9ebc0a758d887ee06e067e9f7f0b36ff7574 upstream. A new cpufreq governor flag will be added subsequently, so replace the bool dynamic_switching fleid in struct cpufreq_governor with a flags field and introduce CPUFREQ_GOV_DYNAMIC_SWITCHING to set for the "dynamic switching" governors instead of it. No intentional functional impact. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki Acked-by: Viresh Kumar Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

cpufreq: Introduce cpufreq_driver_test_flags()

2020-11-05T10:51:57+00:00

commit a62f68f5ca53ab61cba2f0a410d0add7a6d54a52 upstream. Add a helper function to test the flags of the cpufreq driver in use againt a given flags mask. In particular, this will be needed to test the CPUFREQ_NEED_UPDATE_LIMITS cpufreq driver flag in the schedutil governor. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

cpufreq: Introduce CPUFREQ_NEED_UPDATE_LIMITS driver flag

2020-11-05T10:51:51+00:00

commit 1c534352f47fd83eb08075ac2474f707e74bf7f7 upstream. Generally, a cpufreq driver may need to update some internal upper and lower frequency boundaries on policy max and min changes, respectively, but currently this does not work if the target frequency does not change along with the policy limit. Namely, if the target frequency does not change along with the policy min or max, the "target_freq == policy->cur" check in __cpufreq_driver_target() prevents driver callbacks from being invoked and they do not even have a chance to update the corresponding internal boundary. This particularly affects the "powersave" and "performance" governors that always set the target frequency to one of the policy limits and it never changes when the other limit is updated. To allow cpufreq the drivers needing to update internal frequency boundaries on policy limits changes to avoid this issue, introduce a new driver flag, CPUFREQ_NEED_UPDATE_LIMITS, that (when set) will neutralize the check mentioned above.

cpufreq: Use WARN_ON_ONCE() for invalid relation

2020-08-27T10:51:25+00:00

The relation can't be invalid here, so if it turns out to be invalid, just WARN_ON_ONCE() and return 0. Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar [ rjw: Subject and changelog edits ] Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

cpufreq: intel_pstate: Implement passive mode with HWP enabled

2020-08-11T15:29:45+00:00

Allow intel_pstate to work in the passive mode with HWP enabled and make it set the HWP minimum performance limit (HWP floor) to the P-state value given by the target frequency supplied by the cpufreq governor, so as to prevent the HWP algorithm and the CPU scheduler from working against each other, at least when the schedutil governor is in use, and update the intel_pstate documentation accordingly. Among other things, this allows utilization clamps to be taken into account, at least to a certain extent, when intel_pstate is in use and makes it more likely that sufficient capacity for deadline tasks will be provided. After this change, the resulting behavior of an HWP system with intel_pstate in the passive mode should be close to the behavior of the analogous non-HWP system with intel_pstate in the passive mode, except that the HWP algorithm is generally allowed to make the CPU run at a frequency above the floor P-state set by intel_pstate in the entire available range of P-states, while without HWP a CPU can run in a P-state above the requested one if the latter falls into the range of turbo P-states (referred to as the turbo range) or if the P-states of all CPUs in one package are coordinated with each other at the hardware level. [Note that in principle the HWP floor may not be taken into account by the processor if it falls into the turbo range, in which case the processor has a license to choose any P-state, either below or above the HWP floor, just like a non-HWP processor in the case when the target P-state falls into the turbo range.] With this change applied, intel_pstate in the passive mode assumes complete control over the HWP request MSR and concurrent changes of that MSR (eg. via the direct MSR access interface) are overridden by it.

cpufreq: cached_resolved_idx can not be negative

2020-07-30T06:10:16+00:00

It is not possible for cached_resolved_idx to be invalid here as the cpufreq core always sets index to a positive value. Change its type to unsigned int and fix qcom usage a bit. Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar

cpufreq: Register governors at core_initcall

2020-07-02T11:03:30+00:00

Currently, most CPUFreq governors are registered at the core_initcall time when the given governor is the default one, and the module_init time otherwise. In preparation for letting users specify the default governor on the kernel command line, change all of them to be registered at the core_initcall unconditionally, as it is already the case for the schedutil and performance governors. This will allow us to assume that builtin governors have been registered before the built-in CPUFreq drivers probe. And since all governors have similar init/exit patterns now, introduce two new macros, cpufreq_governor_{init,exit}(), to factorize the code.
