      cpufreq: Avoid using inactive policies · 182e36af
      Rafael J. Wysocki authored
      There are two places in the cpufreq core in which low-level driver
      callbacks may be invoked for an inactive cpufreq policy, which isn't
      guaranteed to work in general.  Both are due to possible races with
      CPU offline.
      
      First, in cpufreq_get(), the policy may become inactive after
      the check against policy->cpus in cpufreq_cpu_get() and before
      policy->rwsem is acquired, in which case using it going forward may
      not be correct.
      
      Second, an analogous situation is possible in cpufreq_update_policy().
      
      Avoid using inactive policies by adding policy_is_inactive() checks
      to the code in the above places.

      cpufreq: intel_pstate: Generic governors support · 001c76f0
      Rafael J. Wysocki authored
      There may be reasons to use generic cpufreq governors (eg. schedutil)
      on Intel platforms instead of the intel_pstate driver's internal
      governor.  However, that currently can only be done by disabling
      intel_pstate altogether and using the acpi-cpufreq driver instead
      of it, which is subject to limitations.
      
      First of all, acpi-cpufreq only works on systems where the _PSS
      object is present in the ACPI tables for all logical CPUs.  Second,
      on those systems acpi-cpufreq will only use frequencies listed by
      _PSS which may be suboptimal.  In particular, by convention, the
      whole turbo range is represented in _PSS as a single P-state and
      the frequency assigned to it is greater by 1 MHz than the greatest
      non-turbo frequency listed by _PSS.  That may confuse governors to
      use turbo frequencies less frequently which may lead to suboptimal
      performance.
      
      For this reason, make it possible to use the intel_pstate driver
      with generic cpufreq governors as a "normal" cpufreq driver.  That
      mode is enforced by adding intel_pstate=passive to the kernel
      command line and cannot be disabled at run time.  In that mode,
      intel_pstate provides a cpufreq driver interface including
      the ->target() and ->fast_switch() callbacks and is listed in
      scaling_driver as "intel_cpufreq".

      cpufreq: intel_pstate: Request P-states control from SMM if needed · d0ea59e1
      Rafael J. Wysocki authored
      Currently, intel_pstate is unable to control P-states on my
      IvyBridge-based Acer Aspire S5, because they are controlled by SMM
      on that machine by default and it is necessary to request OS control
      of P-states from it via the SMI Command register exposed in the ACPI
      FADT.  intel_pstate doesn't do that now, but acpi-cpufreq and other
      cpufreq drivers for x86 platforms do.
      
      Address this problem by making intel_pstate use the ACPI-defined
      mechanism as well.  However, intel_pstate is not modular and it
      doesn't need the module refcount tricks played by
      acpi_processor_notify_smm(), so export the core of this function
      to it as acpi_processor_pstate_control() and make it call that.
      [The changes in processor_perflib.c related to this should not
      make any functional difference for the acpi_processor_notify_smm()
      users].
      
      To be safe, only call acpi_processor_notify_smm() from intel_pstate
      if ACPI _PPC support is enabled in it.

      cpufreq: conservative: Decrease frequency faster for deferred updates · 00bfe058
      Stratos Karafotis authored
      Conservative governor changes the CPU frequency in steps.
      That means that if a CPU runs at max frequency, it will need several
      sampling periods to return to min frequency when the workload
      is finished.
      
      If the update function that calculates the load and target frequency
      is deferred, the governor might need even more time to decrease the
      frequency.
      
      This may have impact to power consumption and after all conservative
      should decrease the frequency if there is no workload at every sampling
      rate.
      
      To resolve the above issue calculate the number of sampling periods
      that the update is deferred. Considering that for each sampling period
      conservative should drop the frequency by a freq_step because the
      CPU was idle apply the proper subtraction to requested frequency.
      
      Below, the kernel trace with and without this patch. First an
      intensive workload is applied on a specific CPU. Then the workload
      is removed and the CPU goes to idle.

      cpufreq: intel_pstate: Always set max P-state in performance mode · 2f1d407a
      Rafael J. Wysocki authored
      The only times at which intel_pstate checks the policy set for
      a given CPU is the initialization of that CPU and updates of its
      policy settings from cpufreq when intel_pstate_set_policy() is
      invoked.
      
      That is insufficient, however, because intel_pstate uses the same
      P-state selection function for all CPUs regardless of the policy
      setting for each of them and the P-state limits are shared between
      them.  Thus if the policy is set to "performance" for a particular
      CPU, it may not behave as expected if the cpufreq settings are
      changed subsequently for another CPU.
      
      That can be easily demonstrated by writing "performance" to
      scaling_governor for all CPUs and then switching it to "powersave"
      for one of them in which case all of the CPUs will behave as though
      their scaling_governor were all "powersave" (even though the policy
      still appears to be "performance" for the remaining CPUs).
      
      Fix this problem by modifying intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate() to
      always set the P-state to the maximum allowed by the current limits
      for all CPUs whose policy is set to "performance".
      
      Note that it still is recommended to always change the policy setting
      in the same way for all CPUs even with this fix applied to avoid
      confusion.

      cpufreq: fix overflow in cpufreq_table_find_index_dl() · c6fe46a7
      Sergey Senozhatsky authored
      'best' is always less or equals to 'pos', so `best - pos' returns
      a negative value which is then getting casted to `unsigned int'
      and passed to __cpufreq_driver_target()->acpi_cpufreq_target()
      for policy->freq_table selection. This results in
