Wysocki * * The idea of this governor is based on the observation that on many systems * timer events are two or more orders of magnitude more frequent than any * other interrupts, so they are likely to be the most significant source of CPU * wakeups from idle states. Moreover, information about what happened in the * (relatively recent) past can be used to estimate whether or not the deepest * idle state with target residency within the time to the closest timer is * likely to be suitable for the upcoming idle time of the CPU and, if not, then * which of the shallower idle states to choose. * * Of course, non-timer wakeup sources are more important in some use cases and * they can be covered by taking a few most recent idle time intervals of the * CPU into account. However, even in that case it is not necessary to consider * idle duration values greater than the time till the closest timer, as the * patterns that they may belong to produce average values close enough to * the time till the closest timer (sleep length) anyway. * * Thus this governor estimates whether or not the upcoming idle time of the CPU * is likely to be significantly shorter than the sleep length and selects an * idle state for it in accordance with that, as follows: * * - Find an idle state on the basis of the sleep length and state statistics * collected over time: * * o Find the deepest idle state whose target residency is less than or equal * to the sleep length. * * o Select it if it matched both the sleep length and the observed idle * duration in the past more often than it matched the sleep length alone * (i.e. the observed idle duration was significantly shorter than the sleep * length matched by it). * * o Otherwise, select the shallower state with the greatest matched "early" * wakeups metric. * * - If the majority of the most recent idle duration values are below the * target residency of the idle state selected so far, use those values to * compute the new expected idle duration and find an idle state matching it * (which has to be shallower than the one selected so far). */ #include #include #include #include #include /* * The PULSE value is added to metrics when they grow and the DECAY_SHIFT value * is used for decreasing metrics on a regular basis. */ #define PULSE 1024 #define DECAY_SHIFT 3 /* * Number of the most recent idle duration values to take into consideration for * the detection of wakeup patterns. */ #define INTERVALS 8 /** * struct teo_idle_state - Idle state data used by the TEO cpuidle governor. * @early_hits: "Early" CPU wakeups "matching" this state. * @hits: "On time" CPU wakeups "matching" this state. * @misses: CPU wakeups "missing" this state. * * A CPU wakeup is "matched" by a given idle state if the idle duration measured * after the wakeup is between the target residency of that state and the target * residency of the next one (or if this is the deepest available idle state, it * "matches" a CPU wakeup when the measured idle duration is at least equal to * its target residency). * * Also, from the TEO governor perspective, a CPU wakeup from idle is "early" if * it occurs significantly earlier than the closest expected timer event (that * is, early enough to match an idle state shallower than the one matching the * time till the closest timer event).
