* x86, k8: Fix section mismatch for powernowk8_exit()Borislav Petkov2010-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix the following warning: "WARNING: arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o(.exit.text+0x72): Section mismatch in reference from the function powernowk8_exit() to the variable .cpuinit.data:cpb_nb The function __exit powernowk8_exit() references a variable __cpuinitdata cpb_nb. This is often seen when error handling in the exit function uses functionality in the init path. The fix is often to remove the __cpuinitdata annotation of cpb_nb so it may be used outside an init section." Cc: <stable@kernel.org> Reported-by: H.

| * include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo2010-03-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

* | powernow-k8: Add core performance boost supportBorislav Petkov2010-04-09
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Starting with F10h, revE, AMD processors add support for a dynamic core boosting feature called Core Performance Boost. When a specific condition is present, a subset of the cores on a system are boosted beyond their P0 operating frequency to speed up the performance of single-threaded applications. In the normal case, the system comes out of reset with core boosting enabled. This patch adds a sysfs knob with which core boosting can be switched on or off for benchmarking purposes. While at it, make the CPB code hotplug-aware so that taking cores offline wouldn't interfere with boosting the remaining online cores. Furthermore, add cpu_online_mask hotplug protection as suggested by Andrew. Finally, cleanup the driver init codepath and update copyrights.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Processor Clocking Control (PCC) is an interface between the BIOS and OSPM. Based on the server workload, OSPM can request what frequency it expects from a logical CPU, and the BIOS will achieve that frequency transparently. This patch introduces driver support for PCC. OSPM uses the PCC driver to communicate with the BIOS via the PCC interface. There is a Documentation file that provides a link to the PCC Specification, and also provides a summary of the PCC interface. Currently, certain HP ProLiant platforms implement the PCC interface. However, any platform whose BIOS implements the PCC Specification, can utilize this driver. V2 --> V1 changes (based on Dominik's suggestions): - Removed the dependency on CPU_FREQ_TABLE - "cpufreq_stats" will no longer PANIC. Actually, it will not load anymore because it is not applicable. - Removed the sanity check for target frequency in the ->target routine. NOTE: A patch to sanitize the target frequency requested by "ondemand" is needed to ensure that the target freq < policy->min. Can this driver be queued up for the 2.6.33 tree?

On managed CPUs the cpufreq.c core will call driver->exit(cpu) on the managed cpus and powernow_k8 will free the core's data. Later driver->get(cpu) function might get called trying to read out the current freq of a managed cpu and the NULL pointer check does not work on the freed object -> better set it to NULL. ->get() is unsigned and must return 0 as invalid frequency.

So switch to using the new smp_call_function_any(), which will perform the call on the current CPU if that CPU is present in the mask (it is).

Why is this needed: Currently it's not obvious why cpufreq got limited. People see cpufreq/scaling_max_freq reduced, but this could have happened by: - any userspace prog writing to scaling_max_freq - thermal limitations - hardware (_PPC in ACPI case) limitiations Therefore export bios_limit (in kHz) to: - Point the user that it's the BIOS (broken or intended) which limits frequency - Export it as a sysfs interface for userspace progs. While this was a rarely used feature on laptops, there will appear more and more server implemenations providing "Green IT" features like allowing the service processor to limit the frequency. People want to know about HW/BIOS frequency limitations. All ACPI P-state driven cpufreq drivers are covered with this patch: - powernow-k8 - powernow-k7 - acpi-cpufreq Tested with a patched DSDT which limits the first two cores (_PPC returns 1) via _PPC, exposed by bios_limit: # echo 2200000 >cpu2/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq # cat cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq 2600000 2600000 2200000 2200000 # #scaling_max_freq shows general user/thermal/BIOS limitations # cat cpu*/cpufreq/bios_limit 2600000 2600000 2800000 2800000 # #bios_limit only shows the HW/BIOS limitation CC: Pallipadi Venkatesh <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com> CC: Len Brown <lenb@kernel.org> CC: davej@codemonkey.org.uk CC: linux@dominikbrodowski.net Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com>
