This fixes the behavior of the scaling_max_freq and scaling_min_freq
sysfs files in systems which had turbo disabled by the BIOS.
Caleb noticed that the HWP is programmed to operate in the wrong
P-state range on his system when the CPUFREQ policy min/max frequency
is set via sysfs. This seems to be because in his system
intel_pstate_get_hwp_max() is returning the maximum turbo P-state even
though turbo was disabled by the BIOS, which causes intel_pstate to
scale kHz frequencies incorrectly e.g. setting the maximum turbo
frequency whenever the maximum guaranteed frequency is requested via
sysfs.

When intel_pstate switches the operation mode from "active" to
"passive" or the other way around, freeing its data structures
representing CPUs and allocating them again from scratch is not
necessary and wasteful. Moreover, if these data structures are
preserved, the cached HWP Request MSR value from there may be
written to the MSR to start with to reinitialize it and help to
restore the EPP value set previously (it is set to 0xFF when CPUs
go offline to allow their SMT siblings to use the full range of
EPP values and that also happens when the driver gets unregistered).
Accordingly, modify the driver to only do a full cleanup on driver
object registration errors and when its status is changed to "off"
via sysfs and to write the cached HWP Request MSR value back to
the MSR on CPU init if the data structure representing the given
CPU is still there.

Add ->offline and ->online driver callbacks to prepare for taking a
CPU offline and to restore its working configuration when it goes
back online, respectively, to avoid invoking the ->init callback on
every CPU online which is quite a bit of unnecessary overhead.
Define ->offline and ->online so that they can be used in the
passive mode as well as in the active mode and because ->offline
will do the majority of ->stop_cpu work, the passive mode does
not need that callback any more, so drop it from there.
Also modify the active mode ->suspend and ->resume callbacks to
prevent them from interfering with the new ->offline and ->online
ones in case the latter are invoked withing the system-wide suspend
and resume code flow and make the passive mode use them too.

After commit f6ebbcf08f ("cpufreq: intel_pstate: Implement passive
mode with HWP enabled") it is possible to change the driver status
to "off" via sysfs with HWP enabled, which effectively causes the
driver to unregister itself, but HWP remains active and it forces the
minimum performance, so even if another cpufreq driver is loaded,
it will not be able to control the CPU frequency.
For this reason, make the driver refuse to change the status to
"off" with HWP enabled.

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.

The MSR_TURBO_RATIO_LIMIT can be 0. This is not an error. User can update

Also some systems boot with value = 0.
This results in display of cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq wrong. This value
will be equal to cpufreq/base_frequency, even though turbo is enabled.
But platform will still function normally in HWP mode as we get max
1-core frequency from the MSR_HWP_CAPABILITIES. This MSR is already used
to calculate cpu->pstate.turbo_freq, which is used for to set
policy->cpuinfo.max_freq. But some other places cpu->pstate.turbo_pstate

Because intel_pstate_set_energy_pref_index() reads and writes the
MSR_HWP_REQUEST register without using the cached value of it used by
intel_pstate_hwp_boost_up() and intel_pstate_hwp_boost_down(), those

To avoid that, make intel_pstate_set_energy_pref_index() take the

mentioned above and update it with the new EPP value coming from
user space in addition to updating the MSR.

hwp_boost is unset or the boosting mechanism is not active at the

Although there are processors supporting hardware-managed P-states
(HWP) without the energy-performance preference (EPP) feature, they
are not expected to be run with HWP enabled (the BIOS should disable
HWP on those systems). Missing EPP support generally indicates an
incomplete HWP implementation and so it is better to avoid using
HWP on those systems in production.
However, intel_pstate currently enables HWP on such systems, which
is questionable, so prevent it from doing that by making it check
EPP support before enabling HWP and avoid enabling it if EPP is not
supported by the processor at hand.

Currently using attribute "energy_performance_preference", user space can
write one of the four per-defined preference string. These preference
strings gets mapped to a hard-coded Energy-Performance Preference (EPP) or
Energy-Performance Bias (EPB) knob.
These four values are supposed to cover broad spectrum of use cases, but
are not uniformly distributed in the range. There are number of cases,
where this is not enough. For example:
Suppose user wants more performance when connected to AC. Instead of using
default "balance performance", the "performance" setting can be used. This
changes EPP value from 0x80 to 0x00. But setting EPP to 0, results in
electrical and thermal issues on some platforms. This results in
aggressive throttling, which causes a drop in performance. But some value
between 0x80 and 0x00 results in better performance. But that value can't
be fixed as the power curve is not linear. In some cases just changing EPP
from 0x80 to 0x75 is enough to get significant performance gain.
Similarly on battery the default "balance_performance" mode can be
aggressive in power consumption. But picking up the next choice
"balance power" results in too much loss of performance, which results in
bad user experience in use cases like "Google Hangout". It was observed
that some value between these two EPP is optimal.
This change allows fine grain EPP tuning for platform like Chromebook or
for users who wants to fine tune power and performance.
Here based on the product and use cases, different EPP values can be set.
This change is similar to the change done for:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/power/energy_perf_bias
where user has choice to write a predefined string or raw value.
The change itself is trivial. When user preference doesn't match
predefined string preferences and value is an unsigned integer and in
range, use that value for EPP. When the EPP feature is not present
writing raw value is not supported.

By default intel_pstate the driver disables energy efficiency by setting
MSR_IA32_POWER_CTL bit 19 for Kaby Lake desktop CPU model in HWP mode.
This CPU model is also shared by Coffee Lake desktop CPUs. This allows
these systems to reach maximum possible frequency. But this adds power
penalty, which some customers don't want. They want some way to enable/
disable dynamically.
So, add an additional attribute "energy_efficiency" under
/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/ for these CPU models. This allows
to read and write bit 19 ("Disable Energy Efficiency Optimization") in
the MSR IA32_POWER_CTL.
This attribute is present in both HWP and non-HWP mode as this has an
effect in both modes. Refer to Intel Software Developer's manual for
details.
The scope of this bit is package wide. Also these systems are single
package systems. So read/write MSR on the current CPU is enough.
The energy efficiency (EE) bit setting needs to be preserved during
suspend/resume and CPU offline/online operation. To do this:
- Restoring the EE setting from the cpufreq resume() callback, if there
is change from the system default.
- By default, don't disable EE from cpufreq init() callback for matching
CPU models. Since the scope is package wide and is a single package
system, move the disable EE calls from init() callback to
intel_pstate_init() function, which is called only once.

"The main changes in this cycle are:
- Various NUMA scheduling updates: harmonize the load-balancer and

result is better locality, better utilization and fewer migrations.
- Introduce Thermal Pressure tracking and optimizations, to improve
task placement on thermally overloaded systems.
- Implement frequency invariant scheduler accounting on (some) x86
CPUs. This is done by observing and sampling the 'recent' CPU
frequency average at ~tick boundaries. The CPU provides this data
via the APERF/MPERF MSRs. This hopefully makes our capacity
estimates more precise and keeps tasks on the same CPU better even
if it might seem overloaded at a lower momentary frequency. (As
usual, turbo mode is a complication that we resolve by observing
the maximum frequency and renormalizing to it.)
- Add asymmetric CPU capacity wakeup scan to improve capacity
utilization on asymmetric topologies. (big.LITTLE systems)
- PSI fixes and optimizations.
- RT scheduling capacity awareness fixes & improvements.
- Optimize the CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED constraints code.

In the process of modifying a cpufreq policy, the cpufreq core makes
a copy of it including all of the internals which is stored on the
CPU stack. Because struct cpufreq_policy is relatively large, this
may cause the size of the stack frame to exceed the 2 KB limit and
so the GCC complains when -Wframe-larger-than= is used.
In fact, it is not necessary to copy the entire policy structure
in order to modify it, however.
First, because cpufreq_set_policy() obtains the min and max policy
limits from frequency QoS now, it is not necessary to pass the limits
to it from the callers. The only things that need to be passed to it
from there are the new governor pointer or (if there is a built-in
governor in the driver) the "policy" value representing the governor
choice. They both can be passed as individual arguments, though, so
make cpufreq_set_policy() take them this way and rework its callers
accordingly. This avoids making copies of cpufreq policies in the
callers of cpufreq_set_policy().
Second, cpufreq_set_policy() still needs to pass the new policy
data to the ->verify() callback of the cpufreq driver whose task
is to sanitize the min and max policy limits. It still does not
need to make a full copy of struct cpufreq_policy for this purpose,
but it needs to pass a few items from it to the driver in case they
are needed (different drivers have different needs in that respect
and all of them have to be covered). For this reason, introduce
struct cpufreq_policy_data to hold copies of the members of
struct cpufreq_policy used by the existing ->verify() driver
callbacks and pass a pointer to a temporary structure of that
type to ->verify() (instead of passing a pointer to full struct
cpufreq_policy to it).
While at it, notice that intel_pstate and longrun don't really need
to verify the "policy" value in struct cpufreq_policy, so drop those
check from them to avoid copying "policy" into struct
cpufreq_policy_data (which allows it to be slightly smaller).
Also while at it fix up white space in a couple of places and make
cpufreq_set_policy() static (as it can be so).

Replace the CPU device PM QoS used for the management of min and max

Namely, a cpufreq driver is registered with the subsys interface

currently the PM QoS notifiers are added to the first CPU in the
policy (i.e. CPU0 in the majority of cases).
In turn, when the cpufreq driver is unregistered, the subsys interface
doing that calls cpufreq_remove_dev() for each CPU, starting from CPU0,
and the PM QoS notifiers are only removed when cpufreq_remove_dev() is
called for the last CPU in the policy, say CPUx, which as a rule is
not CPU0 if the policy covers more than one CPU. Then, the PM QoS
notifiers cannot be removed, because CPUx does not have them, and
they are still there in the device PM QoS notifiers list of CPU0,
which prevents new PM QoS notifiers from being registered for CPU0
on the next attempt to register the cpufreq driver.
The same issue occurs when the first CPU in the policy goes offline
before unregistering the driver.
After this change it does not matter which CPU is the policy CPU at
the driver registration time and whether or not it is online all the
time, because the frequency QoS is per policy and not per CPU.

Intel pstate driver exposes min_perf_pct and max_perf_pct sysfs files,
which can be used to force a limit on the min/max P state of the driver.
Though these files eventually control the min/max frequencies that the
CPUs will run at, they don't make a change to policy->min/max values.
When the values of these files are changed (in passive mode of the
driver), it leads to calling ->limits() callback of the cpufreq
governors, like schedutil. On a call to it the governors shall
forcefully update the frequency to come within the limits. Since the
limits, i.e. policy->min/max, aren't updated by the driver, the
governors fails to get the target freq within limit and sometimes aborts
the update believing that the frequency is already set to the target
value.
This patch implements the QoS supported frequency constraints to update
policy->min/max values whenever min_perf_pct or max_perf_pct files are
updated. This is only done for the passive mode as of now, as the driver
is already working fine in active mode.

The implementation of intel_pstate_update_max_freq() is quite similar to
refresh_frequency_limits(), lets reuse it.
Finding minimum of policy->user_policy.max and policy->cpuinfo.max_freq
in intel_pstate_update_max_freq() is redundant as cpufreq_set_policy()
will call the ->verify() callback of intel-pstate driver, which will do
this comparison anyway and so dropping it from
intel_pstate_update_max_freq() doesn't harm.

While the cpuinfo.max_freq value doesn't really matter for
intel_pstate in the active mode, in the passive mode it is used by
governors as the maximum physical frequency of the CPU and the
results of governor computations generally depend on it. Also it
is made available to user space via sysfs and it should match the
current HW configuration.
For this reason, make intel_pstate update cpuinfo.max_freq for all
CPUs if it detects a global change of turbo frequency settings from
"disable" to "enable" or the other way associated with a _PPC change
notification from the platform firmware.
Note that policy_is_inactive(), cpufreq_cpu_acquire(),
cpufreq_cpu_release(), and cpufreq_set_policy() need to be made
available to it for this purpose.

In some cases, the platform firmware disables or enables turbo
frequencies for all CPUs globally before triggering a _PPC change
notification for one of them. Obviously, that global change affects
all CPUs, not just the notified one, and it needs to be acted upon by
cpufreq.
The intel_pstate driver is able to detect such global changes of
the settings, but it also needs to update policy limits for all
CPUs if that happens, in particular if turbo frequencies are
enabled globally - to allow them to be used.
For this reason, introduce a new cpufreq driver callback to be
invoked on _PPC notifications, if present, instead of simply
calling cpufreq_update_policy() for the notified CPU and make
intel_pstate use it to trigger policy updates for all CPUs
in the system if global settings change.

The current iowait boosting mechanism in intel_pstate_update_util()

desirable and arguably isn't necessary too.
Follow commit a5a0809bc5 ("cpufreq: schedutil: Make iowait boost

The init code path has several exceptions where the driver can
decide not to load.
As CONFIG_X86_INTEL_PSTATE is generally set to Y, the return code is
not reachable. The initialization code is neither verbose of the
reason why it did choose to prematurely exit, so it is difficult for
a user to determine, on a given platform, why the driver didn't load
properly.
This patch is about reporting to the user the reason/context of why
the driver failed to load. That is a precious hint when debugging

The cpufreq_global_kobject is created using kobject_create_and_add()
helper, which assigns the kobj_type as dynamic_kobj_ktype and show/store
routines are set to kobj_attr_show() and kobj_attr_store().
These routines pass struct kobj_attribute as an argument to the
show/store callbacks. But all the cpufreq files created using the
cpufreq_global_kobject expect the argument to be of type struct
attribute. Things work fine currently as no one accesses the "attr"
argument. We may not see issues even if the argument is used, as struct
kobj_attribute has struct attribute as its first element and so they
will both get same address.
But this is logically incorrect and we should rather use struct
kobj_attribute instead of struct global_attr in the cpufreq core and
drivers and the show/store callbacks should take struct kobj_attribute
as argument instead.
This bug is caught using CFI CLANG builds in android kernel which
catches mismatch in function prototypes for such callbacks.

Force HWP Request MAX = HWP Request MIN = HWP Capability MIN and EPP to

influence performance limits on its sibling CPU, which is still online.
If the sibling CPU is calling for higher performance, it will impact the
max core performance. Here core performance will follow higher of the
performance requests from each sibling.

Expose base_frequency to user space via cpufreq sysfs when HWP is in
use.
This HWP base frequency is read from the ACPI _CPC object if present,
or from the HWP Capabilities MSR otherwise.
On the majority of the HWP platforms the _CPC object will point to
the HWP Capabilities MSR using the "Functional Fixed Hardware"
address space type. The address space type also can simply be
ACPI_TYPE_INTEGER, however, in which case the platform firmware
can set its value at the initialization time based on the system
constraints.

When HWP is active turbo active ratio is not used, so we should allow
policy max frequency above turbo activation ratio to be set. When HWP is
not active, then any policy max frequency above turbo activation ratio
can result upto max one-core turbo frequency.
This fix helps better thermal control in turbo region when other methods
like "Running Average Power Limit" is not available to use.

Dynamic boosting of HWP performance on IO wake showed significant
improvement to IO workloads. This series was intended for Skylake Xeon
platforms only and feature was enabled by default based on CPU model
number.
But some Xeon platforms reused the Skylake desktop CPU model number. This
caused some undesirable side effects to some graphics workloads. Since
they are heavily IO bound, the increase in CPU performance decreased the
power available for GPU to do its computing and hence decrease in graphics
benchmark performance.
For example on a Skylake desktop, GpuTest benchmark showed average FPS
reduction from 529 to 506.
This change makes sure that HWP boost feature is only enabled for Skylake
server platforms by using ACPI FADT preferred PM Profile. If some desktop
users wants to get benefit of boost, they can still enable boost from
intel_pstate sysfs attribute "hwp_dynamic_boost".

On HWP platforms with Turbo 3.0, the HWP capability max ratio shows the
maximum ratio of that core, which can be different than other cores. If
we show the correct maximum frequency in cpufreq sysfs via
cpuinfo_max_freq and scaling_max_freq then, user can know which cores
can run faster for pinning some high priority tasks.
Currently the max turbo frequency is shown as max frequency, which is
the max of all cores, even if some cores can't reach that frequency
even for single threaded workload.
But it is possible that max ratio in HWP capabilities is set as 0xFF or
some high invalid value (E.g. One KBL NUC). Since the actual performance
can never exceed 1 core turbo frequency from MSR TURBO_RATIO_LIMIT, we
use this as a bound check.

Currently, intel_pstate doesn't register if _PSS is not present on
HP Proliant systems, because it expects the firmware to take over
CPU performance scaling in that case. However, if ACPI PCCH is
present, the firmware expects the kernel to use it for CPU
performance scaling and the pcc-cpufreq driver is loaded for that.
Unfortunately, the firmware interface used by that driver is not
scalable for fundamental reasons, so pcc-cpufreq is way suboptimal
on systems with more than just a few CPUs. In fact, it is better to
avoid using it at all.
For this reason, modify intel_pstate to look for ACPI PCCH if _PSS
is not present and register if it is there. Also prevent the
pcc-cpufreq driver from trying to initialize itself if intel_pstate
has been registered already.

When scaling max/min settings are changed, internally they are converted
to a ratio using the max turbo 1 core turbo frequency. This works fine
when 1 core max is same irrespective of the core. But under Turbo 3.0,
this will not be the case. For example:
Core 0: max turbo pstate: 43 (4.3GHz)
Core 1: max turbo pstate: 45 (4.5GHz)
In this case 1 core turbo ratio will be maximum of all, so it will be
45 (4.5GHz). Suppose scaling max is set to 4GHz (ratio 40) for all cores
,then on core one it will be
= max_state * policy->max / max_freq;
= 43 * (4000000/4500000) = 38 (3.8GHz)
= 38
which is 200MHz less than the desired.
On core2, it will be correctly set to ratio 40 (4GHz). Same holds true
for scaling min frequency limit. So this requires usage of correct turbo
max frequency for core one, which in this case is 4.3GHz. So we need to
adjust per CPU cpu->pstate.turbo_freq using the maximum HWP ratio of that
core.
This change uses the HWP capability of a core to adjust max turbo
frequency. But since Broadwell HWP doesn't use ratios in the HWP
capabilities, we have to use legacy max 1 core turbo ratio. This is not
a problem as the HWP capabilities don't differ among cores in Broadwell.
We need to check for non Broadwell CPU model for applying this change,
though.

This change uses SCHED_CPUFREQ_IOWAIT flag to boost HWP performance.
Since SCHED_CPUFREQ_IOWAIT flag is set frequently, we don't start
boosting steps unless we see two consecutive flags in two ticks. This
avoids boosting due to IO because of regular system activities.
To avoid synchronization issues, the actual processing of the flag is
done on the local CPU callback.

Added two utility functions to HWP boost up gradually and boost down to
the default cached HWP request values.
Boost up:
Boost up updates HWP request minimum value in steps. This minimum value
can reach upto at HWP request maximum values depends on how frequently,
this boost up function is called. At max, boost up will take three steps
to reach the maximum, depending on the current HWP request levels and HWP
capabilities. For example, if the current settings are:
If P0 (Turbo max) = P1 (Guaranteed max) = min
No boost at all.
If P0 (Turbo max) > P1 (Guaranteed max) = min
Should result in one level boost only for P0.
If P0 (Turbo max) = P1 (Guaranteed max) > min
Should result in two level boost:
(min + p1)/2 and P1.
If P0 (Turbo max) > P1 (Guaranteed max) > min
Should result in three level boost:
(min + p1)/2, P1 and P0.
We don't set any level between P0 and P1 as there is no guarantee that
they will be honored.
Boost down:
After the system is idle for hold time of 3ms, the HWP request is reset
to the default value from HWP init or user modified one via sysfs.
Caching of HWP Request and Capabilities
Store the HWP request value last set using MSR_HWP_REQUEST and read
MSR_HWP_CAPABILITIES. This avoid reading of MSRs in the boost utility
functions.
These boost utility functions calculated limits are based on the latest
HWP request value, which can be modified by setpolicy() callback. So if
user space modifies the minimum perf value, that will be accounted for
every time the boost up is called. There will be case when there can be
contention with the user modified minimum perf, in that case user value
will gain precedence. For example just before HWP_REQUEST MSR is updated
from setpolicy() callback, the boost up function is called via scheduler
tick callback. Here the cached MSR value is already the latest and limits
are updated based on the latest user limits, but on return the MSR write
callback called from setpolicy() callback will update the HWP_REQUEST
value. This will be used till next time the boost up function is called.
In addition add a variable to control HWP dynamic boosting. When HWP
dynamic boost is active then set the HWP specific update util hook. The
contents in the utility hooks will be filled in the subsequent patches.

Allow use of the trace_pstate_sample trace function
when the intel_pstate driver is in passive mode.
Since the core_busy and scaled_busy fields are not
used, and it might be desirable to know which path
through the driver was used, either intel_cpufreq_target
or intel_cpufreq_fast_switch, re-task the core_busy
field as a flag indicator.
The user can then use the intel_pstate_tracer.py utility
to summarize and plot the trace.
Note: The core_busy feild still goes by that name
in include/trace/events/power.h and within the
intel_pstate_tracer.py script and csv file headers,
but it is graphed as "performance", and called
core_avg_perf now in the intel_pstate driver.
Sometimes, in passive mode, the driver is not called for
many tens or even hundreds of seconds. The user
needs to understand, and not be confused by, this limitation.

policy->cpu is copied into policy->cpus in cpufreq_online() before
calling into cpufreq_driver->init(). So there's no need to set the
same in the individual driver init() functions again.
This patch removes the redundant setting of policy->cpu in policy->cpus
in intel_pstate and cppc drivers.

The intel_pstate CPU frequency scaling driver has always
calculated CPU frequency incorrectly. Recent changes have
eliminted most of the issues, however the frequency reported
in the trace buffer, if used, is incorrect.
It remains desireable that cpu->pstate.scaling still be a nice
round number for things such as when setting max and min frequencies.
So the proposal is to just fix the reported frequency in the trace data.
Fixes what remains of [1].

Since there is only one P-state selection routine in intel_pstate
now, make intel_pstate_adjust_pstate() call it directly and drop
the target_pstate argument from that function.

In the current implementation, the response latency between seeing
SCHED_CPUFREQ_IOWAIT set and the actual P-state adjustment can be up
to 10ms. It can be reduced by bumping up the P-state to the max at
the time SCHED_CPUFREQ_IOWAIT is passed to intel_pstate_update_util().
With this change, the IO performance improves significantly.
For a simple "grep -r . linux" (Here linux is the kernel source
folder) with caches dropped every time on a Broadwell Xeon workstation
with per-core P-states, the user and system time is shorter by as much
as 30% - 40%.
The same performance difference was not observed on clients that don't
support per-core P-state.

[ rjw: Changelog ]
Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
With Android UI and benchmarks the latency of cpufreq response to
certain scheduling events can become very critical. Currently, callbacks
into cpufreq governors are only made from the scheduler if the target
CPU of the event is the same as the current CPU. This means there are
certain situations where a target CPU may not run the cpufreq governor
for some time.
One testcase to show this behavior is where a task starts running on
CPU0, then a new task is also spawned on CPU0 by a task on CPU1. If the
system is configured such that the new tasks should receive maximum
demand initially, this should result in CPU0 increasing frequency
immediately. But because of the above mentioned limitation though, this
does not occur.
This patch updates the scheduler core to call the cpufreq callbacks for
remote CPUs as well.
The schedutil, ondemand and conservative governors are updated to
process cpufreq utilization update hooks called for remote CPUs where
the remote CPU is managed by the cpufreq policy of the local CPU.
The intel_pstate driver is updated to always reject remote callbacks.
This is tested with couple of usecases (Android: hackbench, recentfling,
galleryfling, vellamo, Ubuntu: hackbench) on ARM hikey board (64 bit
octa-core, single policy). Only galleryfling showed minor improvements,
while others didn't had much deviation.
The reason being that this patch only targets a corner case, where
following are required to be true to improve performance and that
doesn't happen too often with these tests:
- Task is migrated to another CPU.
- The task has high demand, and should take the target CPU to higher
OPPs.
- And the target CPU doesn't call into the cpufreq governor until the
next tick.
Based on initial work from Steve Muckle.

After commit 62611cb912 (intel_pstate: delete scheduler hook in HWP

the code, so drop it.
Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
The ->get callback in the intel_pstate structure was mostly there
for the scaling_cur_freq sysfs attribute to work, but after commit
f8475cef90 (x86: use common aperfmperf_khz_on_cpu() to calculate
KHz using APERF/MPERF) that attribute uses arch_freq_get_on_cpu()
provided by the x86 arch code on all processors supported by
intel_pstate, so it doesn't need the ->get callback from the
driver any more.
Moreover, the very presence of the ->get callback in the intel_pstate
structure causes the cpuinfo_cur_freq attribute to be present when
intel_pstate operates in the active mode, which is bogus, because
the role of that attribute is to return the current CPU frequency
as seen by the hardware. For intel_pstate, though, this is just an
average frequency and not really current, but computed for the
previous sampling interval (the actual current frequency may be
way different at the point this value is obtained by reading from
cpuinfo_cur_freq), and after commit 82b4e03e01 (intel_pstate: skip
scheduler hook when in "performance" mode) the value in
cpuinfo_cur_freq may be stale or just 0, depending on the driver's
operation mode. In fact, however, on the hardware supported by
intel_pstate there is no way to read the current CPU frequency
from it, so the cpuinfo_cur_freq attribute should not be present
at all when this driver is in use.
For this reason, drop intel_pstate_get() and clear the ->get
callback pointer pointing to it, so that the cpuinfo_cur_freq is
not present for intel_pstate in the active mode any more.

All systems use the same P-state selection "powersave" algorithm
in the active mode if HWP is not used, so there's no need to provide
a pointer for it in struct pstate_funcs any more.
Drop ->update_util from struct pstate_funcs and make
intel_pstate_set_update_util_hook() use intel_pstate_update_util()
directly.

All systems with a defined ACPI preferred profile that are not
"servers" have been using the load-based P-state selection algorithm
in intel_pstate since 4.12-rc1 (mobile systems and laptops have been
using it since 4.10-rc1) and no problems with it have been reported
to date. In particular, no regressions with respect to the PID-based
P-state selection have been reported. Also testing indicates that
the P-state selection algorithm based on CPU load is generally on par
with the PID-based algorithm performance-wise, and for some workloads
it turns out to be better than the other one, while being more
straightforward and easier to understand at the same time.
Moreover, the PID-based P-state selection algorithm in intel_pstate
is known to be unstable in some situation and generally problematic,
the issues with it are hard to address and it has become a
significant maintenance burden.
For these reasons, make intel_pstate use the "powersave" P-state
selection algorithm based on CPU load in the active mode on all
systems and drop the PID-based P-state selection code along with
all things related to it from the driver. Also update the
documentation accordingly.
