The cpu_defaults structure is redundant, because it only contains one member of type struct pstate_funcs which can be used directly instead of struct cpu_defaults. For this reason, drop struct cpu_defaults, use struct pstate_funcs directly instead of it where applicable and rename all of the variables of that type accordingly. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Avoid using extra function pointers during P-state selection by dropping the get_target_pstate member from struct pstate_funcs, adding a new update_util callback to it (to be registered with the CPU scheduler as the utilization update callback in the active mode) and reworking the utilization update callback routines to invoke specific P-state selection functions directly.

Notice that some overhead in the utilization update callbacks registered by intel_pstate in the active mode can be avoided if those callbacks are tailored to specific configurations of the driver. For example, the utilization update callback for the HWP enabled case only needs to update the average CPU performance periodically whereas the utilization update callback for the PID-based algorithm does not need to take IO-wait boosting into account and so on. With that in mind, define three utilization update callbacks for three different use cases: HWP enabled, the CPU load "powersave" P-state selection algorithm and the PID-based "powersave" P-state selection algorithm and modify the driver initialization to choose the callback matching its current configuration.

One of the checks in intel_pstate_update_status() implicitly relies on the information that there are only two struct cpufreq_driver objects available, but it is better to do it directly against the value it really is about (to make the code easier to follow if nothing else).

The driver_registered variable in intel_pstate is used for checking whether or not the driver has been registered, but intel_pstate_driver can be used for that too (with the rule that the driver is not registered as long as it is NULL). That is a bit more straightforward and the code may be simplified a bit this way, so modify the driver accordingly. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

In the HWP enabled case pid_params.sample_rate_ns only needs to be updated once, because it is global, so do that when setting hwp_active instead of doing it during the initialization of every CPU. Moreover, pid_params.sample_rate_ms is never used if HWP is enabled, so do not update it at all then. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

intel_pstate_busy_pid_reset() is the only caller of pid_reset(), pid_p_gain_set(), pid_i_gain_set(), and pid_d_gain_set(). Moreover, it passes constants as two parameters of pid_reset() and all of the other routines above essentially contain the same code, so fold all of them into the caller and drop unnecessary computations. Introduce percent_fp() for converting integer values in percent to fixed-point fractions and use it in the above code cleanup. Finally, rename intel_pstate_busy_pid_reset() to intel_pstate_pid_reset() as it also is used for the initialization of PID parameters for every CPU and the meaning of the "busy" part of the name is not particularly clear.

There is only one caller of intel_pstate_reset_all_pid(), which is pid_param_set() used in the debugfs interface only, and having that code split does not make it particularly convenient to follow. For this reason, move the body of intel_pstate_reset_all_pid() into its caller and drop that function. Also change the loop from for_each_online_cpu() (which is obviously racy with respect to CPU offline/online) to for_each_possible_cpu(), so that all PID parameters are reset for all CPUs regardless of their online/offline status (to prevent, for example, a previously offline CPU from going online with a stale set of PID parameters).

Notice that both the existing struct cpu_defaults instances in which PID parameters are actually initialized use the same values of those parameters, so it is not really necessary to copy them over to pid_params dynamically. Instead, initialize pid_params statically with those values and drop the unused pid_policy member from struct cpu_defaults along with copy_pid_params() used for initializing it.

Both intel_pstate_verify_policy() and intel_cpufreq_verify_policy() set policy->cpuinfo.max_freq depending on the turbo status, but the updates made by them are discarded by the core, because the policy object passed to them by the core is temporary and cpuinfo.max_freq from that object is not copied to the final policy object in cpufreq_set_policy(). However, cpufreq_set_policy() passes the temporary policy object to the ->setpolicy callback of the driver, so intel_pstate_set_policy() actually sees the policy->cpuinfo.max_freq value updated by intel_pstate_verify_policy() and not the final one. It also updates policy->max sometimes which basically has no effect after it returns, because the core discards that update. To avoid confusion, eliminate policy->cpuinfo.max_freq updates from intel_pstate_verify_policy() and intel_cpufreq_verify_policy() entirely and check the maximum frequency explicitly in intel_pstate_update_perf_limits() instead of relying on the transiently updated policy->cpuinfo.max_freq value. Moreover, move the max->policy adjustment carried out in intel_pstate_set_policy() to a separate function and call that function from the ->verify driver callbacks to ensure that it will actually be effective.

The coordination of P-state limits used by intel_pstate in the active mode (ie. by default) is problematic, because it synchronizes all of the limits (ie. the global ones and the per-policy ones) so as to use one common pair of P-state limits (min and max) across all CPUs in the system. The drawbacks of that are as follows: - If P-states are coordinated in hardware, it is not necessary to coordinate them in software on top of that, so in that case all of the above activity is in vain. - If P-states are not coordinated in hardware, then the processor is actually capable of setting different P-states for different CPUs and coordinating them at the software level simply doesn't allow that capability to be utilized. - The coordination works in such a way that setting a per-policy limit (eg. scaling_max_freq) for one CPU causes the common effective limit to change (and it will affect all of the other CPUs too), but subsequent reads from the corresponding sysfs attributes for the other CPUs will return stale values (which is confusing). - Reads from the global P-state limit attributes, min_perf_pct and max_perf_pct, return the effective common values and not the last values set through these attributes. However, the last values set through these attributes become hard limits that cannot be exceeded by writes to scaling_min_freq and scaling_max_freq, respectively, and they are not exposed, so essentially users have to remember what they are. All of that is painful enough to warrant a change of the management of P-state limits in the active mode. To that end, redesign the active mode P-state limits management in intel_pstate in accordance with the following rules: (1) All CPUs are affected by the global limits (that is, none of them can be requested to run faster than the global max and none of them can be requested to run slower than the global min). (2) Each individual CPU is affected by its own per-policy limits (that is, it cannot be requested to run faster than its own per-policy max and it cannot be requested to run slower than its own per-policy min). (3) The global and per-policy limits can be set independently. Also, the global maximum and minimum P-state limits will be always expressed as percentages of the maximum supported turbo P-state.

Currently, some processors supporting HWP are only supported by intel_pstate if HWP is actually going to be used and not supported otherwise which is confusing. Specifically, they are not supported if "intel_pstate=no_hwp" is passed to the kernel in the command line or if the driver is started in the passive mode ("intel_pstate=passive"). There is no real reason for that, because everything about those processor is known anyway and the driver can work with them in all modes, so make that happen, but use the load-based P-state selection algorithm for the active mode "powersave" policy with them.

The policy->cpuinfo.max_freq and policy->max updates in intel_cpufreq_turbo_update() are excessive as they are done for no good reason and may lead to problems in principle, so they should be dropped. However, after dropping them intel_cpufreq_turbo_update() becomes almost entirely pointless, because the check made by it is made again down the road in intel_pstate_prepare_request(). The only thing in it that still needs to be done is the call to update_turbo_state(), so drop intel_cpufreq_turbo_update() altogether and make its callers invoke update_turbo_state() directly instead of it. In addition to that, fix intel_cpufreq_verify_policy() so that it checks global.no_turbo in addition to global.turbo_disabled when updating policy->cpuinfo.max_freq to make it consistent with intel_pstate_verify_policy().

In the active mode intel_pstate currently uses two sets of global limits, each associated with one of the possible scaling_governor settings in that mode: "powersave" or "performance". The driver switches over from one of those sets to the other depending on the scaling_governor setting for the last CPU whose per-policy cpufreq interface in sysfs was last used to change parameters exposed in there. That obviously leads to no end of issues when the scaling_governor settings differ between CPUs. The most recent issue was introduced by commit a240c4aa (cpufreq: intel_pstate: Do not reinit performance limits in ->setpolicy) that eliminated the reinitialization of "performance" limits in intel_pstate_set_policy() preventing the max limit from being set to anything below 100, among other things. Namely, an undesirable side effect of commit a240c4aa is that now, after setting scaling_governor to "performance" in the active mode, the per-policy limits for the CPU in question go to the highest level and stay there even when it is switched back to "powersave" later. As it turns out, some distributions set scaling_governor to "performance" temporarily for all CPUs to speed-up system initialization, so that change causes them to misbehave later. To fix that, get rid of the performance/powersave global limits split and use just one set of global limits for everything. From the user's persepctive, after this modification, when scaling_governor is switched from "performance" to "powersave" or the other way around on one CPU, the limits settings (ie. the global max/min_perf_pct and per-policy scaling_max/min_freq for any CPUs) will not change. Still, switching from "performance" to "powersave" or the other way around changes the way in which P-states are selected and in particular "performance" causes the driver to always request the highest P-state it is allowed to ask for for the given CPU.

Currently, intel_pstate_update_perf_limits() first converts the policy minimum and maximum limits into percentages of the maximum turbo frequency (rounding up to an integer) and then converts these percentages to fractions (by using fixed-point arithmetic to divide them by 100). That introduces a rounding error unnecessarily, because the fractions can be obtained by carrying out fixed-point divisions directly on the input numbers. Rework the computations in intel_pstate_hwp_set() to use fractions instead of percentages (and drop redundant local variables from there) and modify intel_pstate_update_perf_limits() to compute the fractions directly and percentages out of them. While at it, introduce percent_ext_fp() for converting percentages to fractions (with extended number of fraction bits) and use it in the computations. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

In the functions intel_pstate_hwp_set(), min/max range from HWP capability MSR along with max_perf_pct and min_perf_pct, is used to set the HWP request MSR. In some cases this doesn't result in the correct HWP max/min in HWP request. For example: In the following case: HWP capabilities from MSR 0x771 0x70a1220 Here cpufreq min/max frequencies from above MSR dump are 700MHz and 3.2GHz respectively. This will result in hwp_min = 0x07 hwp_max = 0x20 To limit max frequency to 2GHz: perf_limits->max_perf_pct = 63 (2GHz as a percent of 3.2GHz rounded up) With the current calculation: adj_range = max_perf_pct * range / 100; adj_range = 63 * (32 - 7) / 100 adj_range = 15 max = hw_min + adj_range; max = 7 + 15 = 22 This will result in HWP request of 0x160f, which will result in a frequency cap of 2.2GHz not 2GHz. The problem with the above calculation is that hwp_min of 7 is treated as 0% in the range. But max_perf_pct is calculated with respect to minimum as 0 and max as 3.2GHz or hwp_max, so adding hwp_min to it will result in more than the desired. Since the min_perf_pct and max_perf_pct is already a percent of max frequency or hwp_max, this min/max HWP request value can be calculated directly applying these percentage to hwp_max.

intel_pstate_hwp_set_policy() is a wrapper around intel_pstate_hwp_set(), but the only value it adds is to check hwp_active before calling the latter and one of its two callers has already checked hwp_active before that happens, so in that code path the additional check is redundant and using the wrapper is rather pointless. For this reason, drop intel_pstate_hwp_set_policy() and make its callers invoke intel_pstate_hwp_set() directly (after checking hwp_active). Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Fengguang reported random corruptions from various locations on x86-32 after commits d2852a22 ("arch: add ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY config") and 9d876e79 ("bpf: fix unlocking of jited image when module ronx not set") that uses the former. While x86-32 doesn't have a JIT like x86_64, the bpf_prog_lock_ro() and bpf_prog_unlock_ro() got enabled due to ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY, whereas Fengguang's test kernel doesn't have module support built in and therefore never had the DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX setting enabled. After investigating the crashes further, it turned out that using set_memory_ro() and set_memory_rw() didn't have the desired effect, for example, setting the pages as read-only on x86-32 would still let probe_kernel_write() succeed without error. This behavior would manifest itself in situations where the vmalloc'ed buffer was accessed prior to set_memory_*() such as in case of bpf_prog_alloc(). In cases where it wasn't, the page attribute changes seemed to have taken effect, leading to the conclusion that a TLB invalidate didn't happen. Moreover, it turned out that this issue reproduced with qemu in "-cpu kvm64" mode, but not for "-cpu host". When the issue occurs, change_page_attr_set_clr() did trigger a TLB flush as expected via __flush_tlb_all() through cpa_flush_range(), though. There are 3 variants for issuing a TLB flush: invpcid_flush_all() (depends on CPU feature bits X86_FEATURE_INVPCID, X86_FEATURE_PGE), cr4 based flush (depends on X86_FEATURE_PGE), and cr3 based flush. For "-cpu host" case in my setup, the flush used invpcid_flush_all() variant, whereas for "-cpu kvm64", the flush was cr4 based. Switching the kvm64 case to cr3 manually worked fine, and further investigating the cr4 one turned out that X86_CR4_PGE bit was not set in cr4 register, meaning the __native_flush_tlb_global_irq_disabled() wrote cr4 twice with the same value instead of clearing X86_CR4_PGE in the first write to trigger the flush. It turned out that X86_CR4_PGE was cleared from cr4 during init from lguest_arch_host_init() via adjust_pge(). The X86_FEATURE_PGE bit is also cleared from there due to concerns of using PGE in guest kernel that can lead to hard to trace bugs (see bff672e6 ("lguest: documentation V: Host") in init()). The CPU feature bits are cleared in dynamic boot_cpu_data, but they never propagated to __flush_tlb_all() as it uses static_cpu_has() instead of boot_cpu_has() for testing which variant of TLB flushing to use, meaning they still used the old setting of the host kernel. Clearing via setup_clear_cpu_cap(X86_FEATURE_PGE) so this would propagate to static_cpu_has() checks is too late at this point as sections have been patched already, so for now, it seems reasonable to switch back to boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_PGE) as it was prior to commit c109bf95 ("x86/cpufeature: Remove cpu_has_pge"). This lets the TLB flush trigger via cr3 as originally intended, properly makes the new page attributes visible and thus fixes the crashes seen by Fengguang.

Pull USB fixes from Greg KH: "Here is a number of different USB fixes for 4.11-rc2. Seems like there were a lot of unresolved issues that people have been finding for this subsystem, and a bunch of good security auditing happening as well from Johan Hovold. There's the usual batch of gadget driver fixes and xhci issues resolved as well.

The purgatory code defines global variables which are referenced via a symbol lookup in the kexec code (core and arch). A recent commit addressing sparse warnings made these static and thereby broke kexec_file. Why did this happen? Simply because the whole machinery is undocumented and lacks any form of forward declarations. The variable names are unspecific and lack a prefix, so adding forward declarations creates shadow variables in the core code. Aside of that the code relies on magic constants and duplicate struct definitions with no way to ensure that these things stay in sync. The section placement of the purgatory variables happened by chance and not by design. Unbreak kexec and cleanup the mess: - Add proper forward declarations and document the usage - Use common struct definition - Use the proper common defines instead of magic constants - Add a purgatory_ prefix to have a proper name space - Use ARRAY_SIZE() instead of a homebrewn reimplementation - Add proper sections to the purgatory variables [ From Mike ] Fixes: 72042a8c ("x86/purgatory: Make functions and variables static") Reported-by: Mike Galbraith <<efault@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Nicholas Mc Guire <der.herr@hofr.at> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Cc: "Tobin C.

Pull i2c fixes from Wolfram Sang: "Here are some driver bugfixes from I2C. Unusual this time are the two reverts. One because I accidently picked a patch from the list which I should have pulled from my co-maintainer instead ("missing of_node_put").
