* cpufreq acpi: only call _PPC after cpufreq ACPI init funcs got called alreadyThomas Renninger2008-07-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ingo Molnar provided a fix to not call _PPC at processor driver initialization time in "[PATCH] ACPI: fix cpufreq regression" (git commit e4233dec749a3519069d9390561b5636a75c7579) But it can still happen that _PPC is called at processor driver initialization time. This patch should make sure that this is not possible anymore.

* [CPUFREQ] expose cpufreq coordination requirements regardless of ↵Darrick J. Wong2008-04-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | coordination mechanism Currently, affected_cpus shows which CPUs need to have their frequency coordinated in software. When hardware coordination is in use, the contents of this file appear the same as when no coordination is required. This can lead to some confusion among user-space programs, for example, that do not know that extra coordination is required to force a CPU core to a particular speed to control power consumption. To fix this, create a "related_cpus" attribute that always displays the coordination map regardless of whatever coordination strategy the cpufreq driver uses (sw or hw). If the cpufreq driver does not provide a value, fall back to policy->cpus. Signed-off-by: Darrick J.

* [CPUFREQ] Eliminate cpufreq_userspace scaling_setspeed deadlockVenki Pallipadi2008-02-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Eliminate cpufreq_userspace scaling_setspeed deadlock. Luming Yu recently uncovered yet another cpufreq related deadlock. One thread that continuously switches the governors and the other thread that repeatedly cats the contents of cpufreq directory causes both these threads to go into a deadlock. Detailed examination of the deadlock showed the exact flow before the deadlock as: Thread 1 Thread 2 ________ ________ cats files under /sys/devices/.../cpufreq/ Set governor to userspace Adds a new sysfs entry for scaling_setspeed cats files under /sys/devices/.../cpufreq/ Set governor to performance Holds cpufreq_rw_sem in write mode Sends a STOP notify to userspace governor cat /sys/devices/.../cpufreq/scaling_setspeed Gets a handle on the above sysfs entry with sysfs_get_active Blocks while trying to get cpufreq_rw_sem in read mode Remove a sysfs entry for scaling_setspeed Blocks on sysfs_deactivate while waiting for earlier get_active (on other thread) to drain At this point both threads go into deadlock and any other thread that tries to do anything with sysfs cpufreq will also block. There seems to be no easy way to avoid this deadlock as long as cpufreq_userspace adds/removes the sysfs entry under same kobject as cpufreq. Below patch moves scaling_setspeed to cpufreq.c, keeping it always and calling back the governor on read/write. This is the cleanest fix I could think of, even though adding two callbacks in governor structure just for this seems unnecessary. Note that the change makes scaling_setspeed under /sys/.../cpufreq permanent and returns <unsupported> when governor is not userspace.

* cpufreq: Initialise default governor before useJohannes Weiner2008-01-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the cpufreq driver starts up at boot time, it calls into the default governor which might not be initialised yet. This hurts when the governor's worker function relies on memory that is not yet set up by its init function. This migrates all governors from module_init() to fs_initcall() when being the default, as was already done in cpufreq_performance when it was the only possible choice. The performance governor is always initialized early because it might be used as fallback even when not being the default. Fixes at least one actual oops where ondemand is the default governor and cpufreq_governor_dbs() uses the uninitialised kondemand_wq work-queue during boot-time.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ingo hit some BUG_ONs that were probably caused by these missing unlocks causing an unbalance. He couldn't reproduce the bug reliably, so it's unknown that it's definitly fixing the problem he hit, but it's a fairly good chance, and this fixes an obvious bug.

| | | | | | | | | | | | Make cpufreq_conservative handle out-of-sync events properly Currently, the cpufreq_conservative governor doesn't get notified when the actual frequency the cpu is running at differs from what cpufreq thought it was. As a result the cpu may stay at the maximum frequency after a s2ram / resume cycle even though the system is idle.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I don't see any reason to take an expensive lock in cpufreq_quick_get() Reading policy->cur is a single atomic operation and after the lock is dropped again the state could change any time anyways. So don't take the lock in the first place. This also makes this function interrupt safe which is useful for some code of mine.

* | [CPUFREQ] allow ondemand and conservative cpufreq governors to be used as ↵Thomas Renninger2007-10-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | default Depending on the transition latency of the HW for cpufreq switches, the ondemand or conservative governor cannot be used with certain cpufreq drivers. Still the ondemand should be the default governor on a wide range of systems. This patch allows this and lets the governor fallback to the performance governor at cpufreq driver load time, if the driver does not support fast enough frequency switching. Main benefit is that on e.g. installation or other systems without userspace support a working dynamic cpufreq support can be achieved on most systems by simply loading the cpufreq driver. This is especially essential for recent x86(_64) laptop hardware which may rely on working dynamic cpufreq OS support.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There is a frequency scaling issue that I encountered with the performance governor in combination with CPU hotplug. In cpufreq.c CPU frequency is reduced to its minimum before the CPU gets unregistered and set offline. Does that have a particular reason? Since the (k8-)governor does not monitor CPU frequency that setting also applies then to the remaining CPU as well and lets the system run on the lowest frequency although performance is chose as the policy.

| * [CPUFREQ] ondemand: fix tickless accounting and software coordination bugVenki Pallipadi2007-06-21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With tickless kernel and software coordination os P-states, ondemand can look at wrong idle statistics. This can happen when ondemand sampling is happening on CPU 0 and due to software coordination sampling also looks at utilization of CPU 1. If CPU 1 is in tickless state at that moment, its idle statistics will not be uptodate and CPU 0 thinks CPU 1 is idle for less amount of time than it actually is. This can be resolved by looking at all the busy times of CPUs, which is accurate, even with tickless, and use that to determine idle time in a round about way (total time - busy time).
