There is no need to check if the cpufreq driver implements callback
cpufreq_driver::target_index. The logic in the __resolve_freq uses
the frequency table available in the policy. It doesn't matter if the
driver provides 'target_index' or 'target' callback. It just has to
populate the 'policy->freq_table'.
Thus, check only frequency table during the frequency resolving call.

Currently, cpufreq_remove_dev() invokes the ->exit() driver callback
without holding the policy rwsem which is inconsistent with what
happens if ->exit() is invoked directly from cpufreq_offline().
It also manipulates the real_cpus mask and removes the CPU device
symlink without holding the policy rwsem, but cpufreq_offline() holds
the rwsem around the modifications thereof.
For consistency, modify cpufreq_remove_dev() to hold the policy rwsem

better to avoid getting into unnecessary frequency updates, as we may

The min and max frequency QoS requests in the cpufreq core are
initialized to whatever the current min and max frequency values are
at the init time, but if any of these values change later (for
example, cpuinfo.max_freq is updated by the driver), these initial
request values will be limiting the CPU frequency unnecessarily
unless they are changed by user space via sysfs.
To address this, initialize min_freq_req and max_freq_req to
FREQ_QOS_MIN_DEFAULT_VALUE and FREQ_QOS_MAX_DEFAULT_VALUE,
respectively, so they don't really limit anything until user
space updates them.

When I hot added a CPU, I found 'cpufreq' directory was not created
below /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/.
It is because get_cpu_device() failed in add_cpu_dev_symlink().
cpufreq_add_dev() is the .add_dev callback of a CPU subsys interface.
It will be called when the CPU device registered into the system.
The call chain is as follows:
register_cpu()
->device_register()
->device_add()
->bus_probe_device()
->cpufreq_add_dev()
But only after the CPU device has been registered, we can get the
CPU device by get_cpu_device(), otherwise it will return NULL.
Since we already have the CPU device in cpufreq_add_dev(), pass
it to add_cpu_dev_symlink().
I noticed that the 'kobj' of the CPU device has been added into
the system before cpufreq_add_dev().

When applying the policy min/max limits, the requested frequency is
simply clamped to not be out of range. It means, however, if one of the
boundaries isn't an available frequency, the frequency resolution can
return a value out of those limits, depending on the relation used.
e.g. freq{0,1,2} being available frequencies.
freq0 policy->min freq1 policy->max freq2
| | | | |
17kHz 18kHz 19kHz 20kHz 21kHz
__resolve_freq(21kHz, CPUFREQ_RELATION_L) -> 21kHz (out of bounds)
__resolve_freq(17kHz, CPUFREQ_RELATION_H) -> 17kHz (out of bounds)
If, during the policy init, we resolve the requested min/max to existing
frequencies, we ensure that any CPUFREQ_RELATION_* would resolve to a
frequency which is inside the policy min/max range.
Making the policy limits rigid helps to introduce the inefficient
frequencies support. Resolving an inefficient frequency to an efficient
one should not transgress policy->max (which can be set for thermal
reason) and having a value we can trust simplify this comparison.

That is less than straightforward, so make cpufreq_online() invoke

During cpufreq driver's registration, if the ->init() callback for all
the CPUs fail then there is not much point in keeping the driver around
as it will only account for more of unnecessary noise, for example
cpufreq core will try to suspend/resume the driver which never got
registered properly.
The removal of such a driver is avoided if the driver carries the
CPUFREQ_STICKY flag. This was added way back [1] in 2004 and perhaps no
one should ever need it now. A lot of drivers do set this flag, probably
because they just copied it from other drivers.
This was added earlier for some platforms [2] because their cpufreq
drivers were getting registered before the CPUs were registered with
subsys framework. And hence they used to fail.
The same isn't true anymore though. The current code flow in the kernel
is:
start_kernel()
-> kernel_init()
-> kernel_init_freeable()
-> do_basic_setup()
-> driver_init()
-> cpu_dev_init()
-> subsys_system_register() //For CPUs
-> do_initcalls()
-> cpufreq_register_driver()
Clearly, the CPUs will always get registered with subsys framework
before any cpufreq driver can get probed. Remove the flag and update the
relevant drivers.

First off, some cpufreq drivers (eg. intel_pstate) can pass hints
beyond the current target frequency to the hardware and there are no
provisions for doing that in the cpufreq framework. In particular,
today the driver has to assume that it should not allow the frequency
to fall below the one requested by the governor (or the required
capacity may not be provided) which may not be the case and which may
lead to excessive energy usage in some scenarios.
Second, the hints passed by these drivers to the hardware need not be
in terms of the frequency, so representing the utilization numbers
coming from the scheduler as frequency before passing them to those
drivers is not really useful.
Address the two points above by adding a special-purpose replacement
for the ->fast_switch callback, called ->adjust_perf, allowing the
governor to pass abstract performance level (rather than frequency)
values for the minimum (required) and target (desired) performance
along with the CPU capacity to compare them to.
Also update the schedutil governor to use the new callback instead
of ->fast_switch if present and if the utilization mertics are
frequency-invariant (that is requisite for the direct mapping
between the utilization and the CPU performance levels to be a
reasonable approximation).

__target_index() in one place and a local variable in that function
may as well be used instead of it, so drop it and modify
__target_index() accordingly.

Add a helper function to test the flags of the cpufreq driver in use
againt a given flags mask.
In particular, this will be needed to test the
CPUFREQ_NEED_UPDATE_LIMITS cpufreq driver flag in the schedutil
governor.

Generally, a cpufreq driver may need to update some internal upper
and lower frequency boundaries on policy max and min changes,
respectively, but currently this does not work if the target
frequency does not change along with the policy limit.
Namely, if the target frequency does not change along with the
policy min or max, the "target_freq == policy->cur" check in
__cpufreq_driver_target() prevents driver callbacks from being
invoked and they do not even have a chance to update the
corresponding internal boundary.
This particularly affects the "powersave" and "performance"
governors that always set the target frequency to one of the
policy limits and it never changes when the other limit is updated.
To allow cpufreq the drivers needing to update internal frequency
boundaries on policy limits changes to avoid this issue, introduce
a new driver flag, CPUFREQ_NEED_UPDATE_LIMITS, that (when set) will
neutralize the check mentioned above.

The cpufreq core checks if the frequency programmed by the bootloaders
is not listed in the freq table and programs one from the table in such
a case. This is done only if the driver has set the
CPUFREQ_NEED_INITIAL_FREQ_CHECK flag.
Currently we print two separate messages, with almost the same content,
and do this with a pr_warn() which may be a bit too much as the driver
only asked us to check this as it expected this to be the case. Lower
down the severity of the print message by switching to pr_info() instead
and print a single message only.

Compared to other arch_* functions, arch_set_freq_scale() has an atypical
weak definition that can be replaced by a strong architecture specific
implementation.
The more typical support for architectural functions involves defining
an empty stub in a header file if the symbol is not already defined in
architecture code. Some examples involve:
- #define arch_scale_freq_capacity topology_get_freq_scale
- #define arch_scale_freq_invariant topology_scale_freq_invariant
- #define arch_scale_cpu_capacity topology_get_cpu_scale
- #define arch_update_cpu_topology topology_update_cpu_topology
- #define arch_scale_thermal_pressure topology_get_thermal_pressure
- #define arch_set_thermal_pressure topology_set_thermal_pressure
Bring arch_set_freq_scale() in line with these functions by renaming it to
topology_set_freq_scale() in the arch topology driver, and by defining the
arch_set_freq_scale symbol to point to the new function for arm and arm64.
While there are other users of the arch_topology driver, this patch defines
arch_set_freq_scale for arm and arm64 only, due to their existing
definitions of arch_scale_freq_capacity. This is the getter function of the
frequency invariance scale factor and without a getter function, the
setter function - arch_set_freq_scale() has not purpose.

Now that the update of the FI scale factor is done in cpufreq core for
selected functions - target(), target_index() and fast_switch(),
we can provide feedback to the task scheduler and architecture code
on whether cpufreq supports FI.
For this purpose provide an external function to expose whether the
cpufreq drivers support FI, by using a static key.
The logic behind the enablement of cpufreq-based invariance is as
follows:
- cpufreq-based invariance is disabled by default
- cpufreq-based invariance is enabled if any of the callbacks
above is implemented while the unsupported setpolicy() is not
The cpufreq_supports_freq_invariance() function only returns whether
cpufreq is instrumented with the arch_set_freq_scale() calls that
result in support for frequency invariance. Due to the lack of knowledge
on whether the implementation of arch_set_freq_scale() actually results
in the setting of a scale factor based on cpufreq information, it is up
to the architecture code to ensure the setting and provision of the
scale factor to the scheduler.

To properly scale its per-entity load-tracking signals, the task scheduler
needs to be given a frequency scale factor, i.e. some image of the current
frequency the CPU is running at. Currently, this scale can be computed
either by using counters (APERF/MPERF on x86, AMU on arm64), or by
piggy-backing on the frequency selection done by cpufreq.
For the latter, drivers have to explicitly set the scale factor
themselves, despite it being purely boiler-plate code: the required
information depends entirely on the kind of frequency switch callback
implemented by the driver, i.e. either of: target_index(), target(),
fast_switch() and setpolicy().
The fitness of those callbacks with regard to driving the Frequency
Invariance Engine (FIE) is studied below:
target_index()
==============
Documentation states that the chosen frequency "must be determined by
freq_table[index].frequency". It isn't clear if it *has* to be that
frequency, or if it can use that frequency value to do some computation
that ultimately leads to a different frequency selection. All drivers
go for the former, while the vexpress-spc-cpufreq has an atypical
implementation which is handled separately.
Therefore, the hook works on the assumption the core can use
freq_table[index].frequency.
target()
=======
This has been flagged as deprecated since:
commit 9c0ebcf78f ("cpufreq: Implement light weight ->target_index() routine")
It also doesn't have that many users:
gx-suspmod.c:439: .target = cpufreq_gx_target,
s3c24xx-cpufreq.c:428: .target = s3c_cpufreq_target,
intel_pstate.c:2528: .target = intel_cpufreq_target,
cppc_cpufreq.c:401: .target = cppc_cpufreq_set_target,
cpufreq-nforce2.c:371: .target = nforce2_target,
sh-cpufreq.c:163: .target = sh_cpufreq_target,
pcc-cpufreq.c:573: .target = pcc_cpufreq_target,
Similarly to the path taken for target_index() calls in the cpufreq core
during a frequency change, all of the drivers above will mark the end of a
frequency change by a call to cpufreq_freq_transition_end().
Therefore, cpufreq_freq_transition_end() can be used as the location for
the arch_set_freq_scale() call to potentially inform the scheduler of the
frequency change.
This change maintains the previous functionality for the drivers that
implement the target_index() callback, while also adding support for the
few drivers that implement the deprecated target() callback.
fast_switch()
=============
This callback *has* to return the frequency that was selected.
setpolicy()
===========
This callback does not have any designated way of informing what was the
end choice. But there are only two drivers using setpolicy(), and none
of them have current FIE support:
drivers/cpufreq/longrun.c:281: .setpolicy = longrun_set_policy,
drivers/cpufreq/intel_pstate.c:2215: .setpolicy = intel_pstate_set_policy,
The intel_pstate is known to use counter-driven frequency invariance.
Conclusion
==========
Given that the significant majority of current FIE enabled drivers use
callbacks that lend themselves to triggering the setting of the FIE scale
factor in a generic way, move the invariance setter calls to cpufreq core.
As a result of setting the frequency scale factor in cpufreq core, after
callbacks that lend themselves to trigger it, remove this functionality
from the driver side.
To be noted that despite marking a successful frequency change, many
cpufreq drivers will consider the new frequency as the requested
frequency, although this is might not be the one granted by the hardware.
Therefore, the call to arch_set_freq_scale() is a "best effort" one, and
it is up to the architecture if the new frequency is used in the new
frequency scale factor setting (determined by the implementation of
arch_set_freq_scale()) or eventually used by the scheduler (determined
by the implementation of arch_scale_freq_capacity()). The architecture
is in a better position to decide if it has better methods to obtain
more accurate information regarding the current frequency and use that
information instead (for example, the use of counters).
Also, the implementation to arch_set_freq_scale() will now have to handle
error conditions (current frequency == 0) in order to prevent the
overhead in cpufreq core when the default arch_set_freq_scale()
implementation is used.
