[ Upstream commit f9bd3762cf1bd0c2465f2e6121b340883471d1bf ]

cpuidle_state_get_one_value() never cleared errno before calling
strtoull(), so a prior ERANGE caused every cpuidle counter read to
return zero. Reset errno to 0 before the conversion so each sysfs read
is evaluated independently.

[ Upstream commit 23199d2aa6dcaf6dd2da772f93d2c94317d71459 ]

Fix incorrect size parameter passed to cpuidle_state_write_file() in
cpuidle_state_disable().

The function was incorrectly using sizeof(disable) which returns the
size of the unsigned int variable (4 bytes) instead of the actual
length of the string stored in the 'value' buffer.

Since 'value' is populated with snprintf() to contain the string
representation of the disable value, we should use the length
returned by snprintf() to get the correct string length for
writing to the sysfs file.

This ensures the correct number of bytes is written to the cpuidle
state disable file in sysfs.

[ Upstream commit 57b100d4cf14276e0340eecb561005c07c129eb8 ]

The cpupower_write_sysfs() function currently returns -1 on
write failure, but the function signature indicates it should
return an unsigned int. Returning -1 from an unsigned function
results in a large positive value rather than indicating
an error condition.

Fix this by returning 0 on failure, which is more appropriate
for an unsigned return type and maintains consistency with typical
success/failure semantics where 0 indicates failure and non-zero
indicates success (bytes written).

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit cda7ac8ce7de84cf32a3871ba5f318aa3b79381e ]

In the function mperf_start(), mperf_monitor snapshots the time, tsc
and finally the aperf,mperf MSRs. However, this order of snapshotting
in is reversed in mperf_stop(). As a result, the C0 residency (which
is computed as delta_mperf * 100 / delta_tsc) is under-reported on
CPUs that is 100% busy.

Fix this by snapshotting time, tsc and then aperf,mperf in
mperf_stop() in the same order as in mperf_start().

[ Upstream commit 9d6c0e58514f8b57cd9c2c755e41623d6a966025 ]

Commit 'cpupower: Make TSC read per CPU for Mperf monitor' (c2adb1877b7)
changes TSC counter reads per cpu, but left time diff global (from start
of all cpus to end of all cpus), thus diff(time) is too large for a
cpu's tsc counting, resulting in far less than acutal TSC_Mhz and thus
`cpupower monitor` showing far less than actual cpu realtime frequency.

/proc/cpuinfo shows frequency:
cat /proc/cpuinfo | egrep -e 'processor' -e 'MHz'
...
processor : 171
cpu MHz   : 4108.498
...

[ Upstream commit c2adb1877b76fc81ae041e1db1a6ed2078c6746b ]

System-wide TSC read could cause a drift in C0 percentage calculation.
Because if first TSC is read and then one by one mperf is read for all
cpus, this introduces drift between mperf reading of later CPUs and TSC
reading.  To lower this drift read TSC per CPU and also just after mperf
read.  This technique improves C0 percentage calculation in Mperf monitor.
