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.

* | cpufreq: Specify default governor on command lineQuentin Perret2020-07-021-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the only way to specify the default CPUfreq governor is via Kconfig options, which suits users who can build the kernel themselves perfectly. However, for those who use a distro-like kernel (such as Android, with the Generic Kernel Image project), the only way to use a non-default governor is to boot to userspace, and to then switch using the sysfs interface. Being able to specify the default governor on the command line, like is the case for cpuidle, would allow those users to specify their governor of choice earlier on, and to simplify the userspace boot procedure slighlty. To support this use-case, add a kernel command line parameter allowing the default governor for CPUfreq to be specified, which takes precedence over the built-in default. This implementation has one notable limitation: the default governor must be registered before the driver. This is solved for builtin governors and drivers using appropriate *_initcall() functions. And in the modular case, this must be reflected as a constraint on the module loading order.

* | cpufreq: intel_pstate: Allow raw energy performance preference valueSrinivas Pandruvada2020-07-021-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* | cpufreq: intel_pstate: Allow enable/disable energy efficiencySrinivas Pandruvada2020-07-021-0/+11
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After recent changes allowing scale-invariant utilization to be used on x86, the schedutil governor on top of intel_pstate in the passive mode should be on par with (or better than) the active mode "powersave" algorithm of intel_pstate on systems in which hardware-managed P-states (HWP) are not used, so it should not be necessary to use the internal scaling algorithm in those cases. Accordingly, modify intel_pstate to start in the passive mode by default if the processor at hand does not support HWP of if the driver is requested to avoid using HWP through the kernel command line. Among other things, that will allow utilization clamps and the support for RT/DL tasks in the schedutil governor to be utilized on systems in which intel_pstate is used. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are three legacy driver documents in Documentation/cpu-freq/ that were added years ago and converting them each to the .rst format is rather pointless, even though there is some value in preserving them. However, if they are preserved, they need to go into the admin-guide part of cpufreq documentation where they belong (at least to a certain extent). To preserve them with minimum amount of changes and put them into the right place, and make it possible to process them into HTML (and other formats) along with the rest of the documentation, move them each as a "literal text" block into a separate section of a single .rst "wrapper" file under Documentation/admin-guide/pm/. While at it, repair the PCC specification URL in one of them. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In certain system configurations it may not be desirable to use some C-states assumed to be available by intel_idle and the driver needs to be prevented from using them even before the cpuidle sysfs interface becomes accessible to user space. Currently, the only way to achieve that is by setting the 'max_cstate' module parameter to a value lower than the index of the shallowest of the C-states in question, but that may be overly intrusive, because it effectively makes all of the idle states deeper than the 'max_cstate' one go away (and the C-state to avoid may be in the middle of the range normally regarded as available). To allow that limitation to be overcome, introduce a new module parameter called 'states_off' to represent a list of idle states to be disabled by default in the form of a bitmask and update the documentation to cover it.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Performance and Energy Bias Hint (EPB) is expected to be set by user space through the generic MSR interface, but that interface is not particularly nice and there are security concerns regarding it, so it is not always available. For this reason, add a sysfs interface for reading and updating the EPB, in the form of a new attribute, energy_perf_bias, located under /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu#/power/ for online CPUs that support the EPB feature.

* | PM / arch: x86: Rework the MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS handlingRafael J. Wysocki2019-04-072-0/+7
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current handling of MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS in the kernel is problematic, because it may cause changes made by user space to that MSR (with the help of the x86_energy_perf_policy tool, for example) to be lost every time a CPU goes offline and then back online as well as during system-wide power management transitions into sleep states and back into the working state. The first problem is that if the current EPB value for a CPU going online is 0 ('performance'), the kernel will change it to 6 ('normal') regardless of whether or not this is the first bring-up of that CPU. That also happens during system-wide resume from sleep states (including, but not limited to, hibernation). However, the EPB may have been adjusted by user space this way and the kernel should not blindly override that setting. The second problem is that if the platform firmware resets the EPB values for any CPUs during system-wide resume from a sleep state, the kernel will not restore their previous EPB values that may have been set by user space before the preceding system-wide suspend transition. Again, that behavior may at least be confusing from the user space perspective. In order to address these issues, rework the handling of MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS so that the EPB value is saved on CPU offline and restored on CPU online as well as (for the boot CPU) during the syscore stages of system-wide suspend and resume transitions, respectively. However, retain the policy by which the EPB is set to 6 ('normal') on the first bring-up of each CPU if its initial value is 0, based on the observation that 0 may mean 'not initialized' just as well as 'performance' in that case. While at it, move the MSR_IA32_ENERGY_PERF_BIAS handling code into a separate file and document it in Documentation/admin-guide.

* cpuidle: New timer events oriented governor for tickless systemsRafael J. Wysocki2019-01-161-8/+96
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The venerable menu governor does some things that are quite questionable in my view. First, it includes timer wakeups in the pattern detection data and mixes them up with wakeups from other sources which in some cases causes it to expect what essentially would be a timer wakeup in a time frame in which no timer wakeups are possible (because it knows the time until the next timer event and that is later than the expected wakeup time). Second, it uses the extra exit latency limit based on the predicted idle duration and depending on the number of tasks waiting on I/O, even though those tasks may run on a different CPU when they are woken up. Moreover, the time ranges used by it for the sleep length correction factors depend on whether or not there are tasks waiting on I/O, which again doesn't imply anything in particular, and they are not correlated to the list of available idle states in any way whatever. Also, the pattern detection code in menu may end up considering values that are too large to matter at all, in which cases running it is a waste of time. A major rework of the menu governor would be required to address these issues and the performance of at least some workloads (tuned specifically to the current behavior of the menu governor) is likely to suffer from that. It is thus better to introduce an entirely new governor without them and let everybody use the governor that works better with their actual workloads. The new governor introduced here, the timer events oriented (TEO) governor, uses the same basic strategy as menu: it always tries to find the deepest idle state that can be used in the given conditions. However, it applies a different approach to that problem. First, it doesn't use "correction factors" for the time till the closest timer, but instead it tries to correlate the measured idle duration values with the available idle states and use that information to pick up the idle state that is most likely to "match" the upcoming CPU idle interval. Second, it doesn't take the number of "I/O waiters" into account at all and the pattern detection code in it avoids taking timer wakeups into account. It also only uses idle duration values less than the current time till the closest timer (with the tick excluded) for that purpose. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
