Srinivas Pandruvada b00345d199 cpufreq: intel_pstate: Adjust _PSS[0] freqeuency if needed
The maximum turbo P-State used by the intel_pstate driver may be
limited by ACPI _PSS table entry 0.  After commit 9522a2ff9c
(cpufreq: intel_pstate: Enforce _PPC limits), the maximum performance
on servers will be capped by the _PSS table entry 0 by default.

Even though that is formally correct, it may lead to preformance
regressions in some cases.  Namely, if the _PSS table entry 0 is
not the maximum turbo P-State, performance measured after commit
9522a2ff9c will not match the performance measured before that
commit on the same system.

For this reason, modify the code to always use the maximum turbo
frequency as the one that corresponds to _PSS table entry 0 if turbo
is enabled in the BIOS.  This way, the performance levels from
before commit 9522a2ff9c will be restored on the affected systems.

Srinivas Pandruvada 983e600e88 cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix ->set_policy() interface for no_turbo
When turbo is disabled, the ->set_policy() interface is broken.

For example, when turbo is disabled and cpuinfo.max = 2900000 (full
max turbo frequency), setting the limits results in frequency less
than the requested one:
Set 1000000 KHz results in 0700000 KHz
Set 1500000 KHz results in 1100000 KHz
Set 2000000 KHz results in  1500000 KHz

This is because the limits->max_perf fraction is calculated using
the max turbo frequency as the reference, but when the max P-State is
capped in intel_pstate_get_min_max(), the reference is not the max
turbo P-State. This results in reducing max P-State.

One option is to always use max turbo as reference for calculating
limits. But this will not be correct. By definition the intel_pstate
sysfs limits, shows percentage of available performance. So when
BIOS has disabled turbo, the available performance is max non turbo.
So the max_perf_pct should still show 100%.

Rafael J. Wysocki a1c9787dc3 intel_pstate: Clarify average performance computation
The core_pct_busy field of struct sample actually contains the
average performace during the last sampling period (in percent)
and not the utilization of the core as suggested by its name
which is confusing.

For this reason, change the name of that field to core_avg_perf
and rename the function that computes its value accordingly.

Also notice that storing this value as percentage requires a costly
integer multiplication to be carried out in a hot path, so instead
store it as an "extended fixed point" value with more fraction bits
and update the code using it accordingly (it is better to change the
name of the field along with its meaning in one go than to make those
two changes separately, as that would likely lead to more
confusion).

Chen Yu 4578ee7e1d intel_pstate: Avoid unnecessary synchronize_sched() during initialization
Currently, in intel_pstate_clear_update_util_hook(), after
clearing the utilization update hook, we leverage
synchronize_sched() to deal with synchronization, which
is a little bit time-costly because synchronize_sched()
has to wait for all the CPUs to go through a grace period.

Actually, the synchronize_sched() is not necessary if the utilization
update hook has not been set for the given CPU yet, so make the driver
check if that's the case and avoid the synchronize_sched() call then.

Rafael J. Wysocki 6d45b719cb intel_pstate: Fix intel_pstate_get()
After commit 8fa520af50 "intel_pstate: Remove freq calculation from
intel_pstate_calc_busy()" intel_pstate_get() calls get_avg_frequency()
to compute the average frequency, which is problematic for two reasons.

First, intel_pstate_get() may be invoked before the driver reads the
CPU feedback registers for the first time and if that happens,
get_avg_frequency() will attempt to divide by zero.

Second, the get_avg_frequency() call in intel_pstate_get() is racy
with respect to intel_pstate_sample() and it may end up returning
completely meaningless values for this reason.

Moreover, after commit 7349ec0470 "intel_pstate: Move
intel_pstate_calc_busy() into get_target_pstate_use_performance()"
sample.core_pct_busy is never computed on Atom, but it is used in
intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate() in that case too.

To address those problems notice that if sample.core_pct_busy
was used in the average frequency computation carried out by
get_avg_frequency(), both the divide by zero problem and the
race with respect to intel_pstate_sample() would be avoided.

Accordingly, move the invocation of intel_pstate_calc_busy() from
get_target_pstate_use_performance() to intel_pstate_update_util(),
which also will take care of the uninitialized sample.core_pct_busy
on Atom, and modify get_avg_frequency() to use sample.core_pct_busy
as per the above.

Rafael J. Wysocki ba41e1bc28 cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix HWP on boot CPU after system resume
Commit 41cfd64cf4 "Update frequencies of policy->cpus only from
->set_policy()" changed the way the intel_pstate driver's ->set_policy
callback updates the HWP (hardware-managed P-states) settings.
A side effect of it is that if those settings are modified on the
boot CPU during system suspend and wakeup, they will never be
restored during subsequent system resume.

To address this problem, allow cpufreq drivers that don't provide
->target or ->target_index callbacks to use ->suspend and ->resume
callbacks and add a ->resume callback to intel_pstate to restore
the HWP settings on the CPUs that belong to the given policy.

Srinivas Pandruvada 3be9200d51 cpufreq: intel_pstate: Adjust policy->max
When policy->max is changed via _PPC or sysfs and is more than the max non
turbo frequency, it does not really change resulting performance in some
processors. When policy->max results in a P-State ratio more than the
turbo activation ratio, then processor can choose any P-State up to max
turbo. So the user or _PPC setting has no value, but this can cause
undesirable side effects like:
- Showing reduced max percentage in Intel P-State sysfs
- It can cause reduced max performance under certain boundary conditions:
The requested max scaling frequency either via _PPC or via cpufreq-sysfs,
will be converted into a fixed floating point max percent scale. In
majority of the cases this will result in correct max. But not 100% of the
time. If the _PPC is requested at a point where the calculation lead to a
lower max, this can result in a lower P-State then expected and it will
impact performance.
Example of this condition using a Broadwell laptop with config TDP.

ACPI _PSS table from a Broadwell laptop
2301000 2300000 2200000 2000000 1900000 1800000 1700000 1500000 1400000

------------------------------------------------------------------

Now set the config TDP level 1 ratio as 0x0b (equivalent to 1100000KHz)
in BIOS (not every system will let you adjust this).
The turbo activation ratio will be set to one less than that, which will
be 0x0a (So any request above 1000000KHz should result in turbo region
assuming no thermal limits).
Here _PPC will request max to 1100000KHz (which basically should still
result in turbo as this is more than the turbo activation ratio up to
max allowable turbo frequency), but actual calculation resulted in a max
ceiling P-State which is 0x0a. So under any load condition, this driver
will not request turbo P-States. This will be a huge performance hit.

When config TDP feature is ON, if the _PPC points to a frequency above
turbo activation ratio, the performance can still reach max turbo. In this
case we don't need to treat this as the reduced frequency in set_policy
callback.

In this change when config TDP is active (by checking if the physical max
non turbo ratio is more than the current max non turbo ratio), any request
above current max non turbo is treated as full performance.

Srinivas Pandruvada 9522a2ff9c cpufreq: intel_pstate: Enforce _PPC limits
Use ACPI _PPC notification to limit max P state driver will request.
ACPI _PPC change notification is sent by BIOS to limit max P state
in several cases:
- Reduce impact of platform thermal condition
- When Config TDP feature is used, a changed _PPC is sent to
follow TDP change
- Remote node managers in server want to control platform power
via baseboard management controller (BMC)

This change registers with ACPI processor performance lib so that
_PPC changes are notified to cpufreq core, which in turns will
result in call to .setpolicy() callback. Also the way _PSS
table identifies a turbo frequency is not compatible to max turbo
frequency in intel_pstate, so the very first entry in _PSS needs
to be adjusted.

This feature can be turned on by using kernel parameters:
intel_pstate=support_acpi_ppc

Philippe Longepe bdcaa23fb8 cpufreq: intel_pstate: Use average P-State instead of current P-State
The result returned by pid_calc() is subtracted from current_pstate
(which is the P-State requested during the last period) in order to
obtain the target P-State for the current iteration.

However, current_pstate may not reflect the real current P-State of
the CPU. In particular, that P-State may be higher because of the
frequency sharing per module.

The theory is:
 - The load is the percentage of time spent in C0 and is related to
   the average P-State during the same period.
 - The last requested P-State can be completely different than the
   average P-State (because of frequency sharing or throttling).
 - The P-State shift computed by the pid_calc is based on the load
   computed at average P-State, so the shift must be relative to
   this average P-State.

Using the average P-State instead of current P-State improves power
without significant performance penalty in cases when a task migrates
from one core to other core sharing frequency and voltage.

Rafael J. Wysocki ffb810563c intel_pstate: Avoid getting stuck in high P-states when idle
Jörg Otte reports that commit a4675fbc4a (cpufreq: intel_pstate:
Replace timers with utilization update callbacks) caused the CPUs in
his Haswell-based system to stay in the very high frequency region
even if the system is completely idle.

That turns out to be an existing problem in the intel_pstate driver's
P-state selection algorithm for Core processors.  Namely, all
decisions made by that algorithm are based on the average frequency
of the CPU between sampling events and on the P-state requested on
the last invocation, so it may get stuck at a very hight frequency
even if the utilization of the CPU is very low (in fact, it may get
stuck in a inadequate P-state regardless of the CPU utilization).
The only way to kick it out of that limbo is a sufficiently long idle
period (3 times longer than the prescribed sampling interval), but if
that doesn't happen often enough (eg. due to a timing change like
after the above commit), the P-state of the CPU may be inadequate
pretty much all the time.

To address the most egregious manifestations of that issue, reset the
core_busy value used to determine the next P-state to request if the
utilization of the CPU, determined with the help of the MPERF
feedback register and the TSC, is below 1%.

Rafael J. Wysocki 22590efb98 intel_pstate: Avoid pointless FRAC_BITS shifts under div_fp()
There are multiple places in intel_pstate where int_tofp() is applied
to both arguments of div_fp(), but this is pointless, because int_tofp()
simply shifts its argument to the left by FRAC_BITS which mathematically
is equivalent to multuplication by 2^FRAC_BITS, so if this is done
to both arguments of a division, the extra factors will cancel each
other during that operation anyway.

Drop the pointless int_tofp() applied to div_fp() arguments throughout
the driver.

Srinivas Pandruvada 30a3915385 cpufreq: intel_pstate: fix inconsistency in setting policy limits
When user sets performance policy using cpufreq interface, it is possible
that because of policy->max limits, the actual performance is still
limited. But the current implementation will silently switch the
policy to powersave and start using powersave limits. If user modifies
any limits using intel_pstate sysfs, this is actually changing powersave
limits.

The current implementation tracks limits under powersave and performance
policy using two different variables. When policy->max is less than
policy->cpuinfo.max_freq, only powersave limit variable is used.

This fix causes the performance limits variable to be used always when
the policy is performance.

Rafael J. Wysocki febce40feb intel_pstate: Avoid extra invocation of intel_pstate_sample()
The initialization of intel_pstate for a given CPU involves populating
the fields of its struct cpudata that represent the previous sample,
but currently that is done in a problematic way.

Namely, intel_pstate_init_cpu() makes an extra call to
intel_pstate_sample() so it reads the current register values that
will be used to populate the "previous sample" record during the
next invocation of intel_pstate_sample().  However, after commit
a4675fbc4a (cpufreq: intel_pstate: Replace timers with utilization
update callbacks) that doesn't work for last_sample_time, because
the time value is passed to intel_pstate_sample() as an argument now.
Passing 0 to it from intel_pstate_init_cpu() is problematic, because
that causes cpu->last_sample_time == 0 to be visible in
get_target_pstate_use_performance() (and hence the extra
cpu->last_sample_time > 0 check in there) and effectively allows
the first invocation of intel_pstate_sample() from
intel_pstate_update_util() to happen immediately after the
initialization which may lead to a significant "turn on"
effect in the governor algorithm.

To mitigate that issue, rework the initialization to avoid the
extra intel_pstate_sample() call from intel_pstate_init_cpu().
Instead, make intel_pstate_sample() return false if it has been
called with cpu->sample.time equal to zero, which will make
intel_pstate_update_util() skip the sample in that case, and
reset cpu->sample.time from intel_pstate_set_update_util_hook()
to make the algorithm start properly every time the hook is set.

Rafael J. Wysocki bb6ab52f2b intel_pstate: Do not set utilization update hook too early
The utilization update hook in the intel_pstate driver is set too
early, as it only should be set after the policy has been fully
initialized by the core.  That may cause intel_pstate_update_util()
to use incorrect data and put the CPUs into incorrect P-states as
a result.

To prevent that from happening, make intel_pstate_set_policy() set
the utilization update hook instead of intel_pstate_init_cpu() so
intel_pstate_update_util() only runs when all things have been
initialized as appropriate.

Rafael J. Wysocki fdfdb2b130 intel_pstate: Do not call wrmsrl_on_cpu() with disabled interrupts
After commit a4675fbc4a (cpufreq: intel_pstate: Replace timers with
utilization update callbacks) wrmsrl_on_cpu() cannot be called in the
intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate() path as that is executed with
disabled interrupts.  However, atom_set_pstate() called from there
via intel_pstate_set_pstate() uses wrmsrl_on_cpu() to update the
IA32_PERF_CTL MSR which triggers the WARN_ON_ONCE() in
smp_call_function_single().

The reason why wrmsrl_on_cpu() is used by atom_set_pstate() is
because intel_pstate_set_pstate() calling it is also invoked during
the initialization and cleanup of the driver and in those cases it is
not guaranteed to be run on the CPU that is being updated.  However,
in the case when intel_pstate_set_pstate() is called by
intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate(), wrmsrl() can be used to update
the register safely.  Moreover, intel_pstate_set_pstate() already
contains code that only is executed if the function is called by
intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate() and there is a special argument
passed to it because of that.

To fix the problem at hand, rearrange the code taking the above
observations into account.

First, replace the ->set() callback in struct pstate_funcs with a
->get_val() one that will return the value to be written to the
IA32_PERF_CTL MSR without updating the register.

Second, split intel_pstate_set_pstate() into two functions,
intel_pstate_update_pstate() to be called by
intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate() that will contain all of the
intel_pstate_set_pstate() code which only needs to be executed in
that case and will use wrmsrl() to update the MSR (after obtaining
the value to write to it from the ->get_val() callback), and
intel_pstate_set_min_pstate() to be invoked during the
initialization and cleanup that will set the P-state to the
minimum one and will update the MSR using wrmsrl_on_cpu().

Finally, move the code shared between intel_pstate_update_pstate()
and intel_pstate_set_min_pstate() to a new static inline function
intel_pstate_record_pstate() and make them both call it.

Of course, that unifies the handling of the IA32_PERF_CTL MSR writes
between Atom and Core.

Rafael J. Wysocki 4fec7ad5f6 intel_pstate: Do not skip samples partially
If the current value of MPERF or the current value of TSC is the
same as the previous one, respectively, intel_pstate_sample() bails
out early and skips the sample.

However, intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate() is still called in that
case which is not correct, so modify intel_pstate_sample() to
return a bool value indicating whether or not the sample has been
taken and use it to decide whether or not to call
intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate().

While at it, remove redundant parentheses from the MPERF/TSC
check in intel_pstate_sample().

Rafael J. Wysocki 08f511fd41 cpufreq: Reduce cpufreq_update_util() overhead a bit
Use the observation that cpufreq_update_util() is only called
by the scheduler with rq->lock held, so the callers of
cpufreq_set_update_util_data() can use synchronize_sched()
instead of synchronize_rcu() to wait for cpufreq_update_util()
to complete.  Moreover, if they are updated to do that,
rcu_read_(un)lock() calls in cpufreq_update_util() might be
replaced with rcu_read_(un)lock_sched(), respectively, but
those aren't really necessary, because the scheduler calls
that function from RCU-sched read-side critical sections
already.

In addition to that, if cpufreq_set_update_util_data() checks
the func field in the struct update_util_data before setting
the per-CPU pointer to it, the data->func check may be dropped
from cpufreq_update_util() as well.

Make the above changes to reduce the overhead from
cpufreq_update_util() in the scheduler paths invoking it
and to make the cleanup after removing its callbacks less
heavy-weight somewhat.

Viresh Kumar 41cfd64cf4 intel_pstate: Update frequencies of policy->cpus only from ->set_policy()
The intel-pstate driver is using intel_pstate_hwp_set() from two
separate paths, i.e. ->set_policy() callback and sysfs update path for
the files present in /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/ directory.

While an update to the sysfs path applies to all the CPUs being managed
by the driver (which essentially means all the online CPUs), the update
via the ->set_policy() callback applies to a smaller group of CPUs
managed by the policy for which ->set_policy() is called.

And so, intel_pstate_hwp_set() should update frequencies of only the
CPUs that are part of policy->cpus mask, while it is called from
->set_policy() callback.

In order to do that, add a parameter (cpumask) to intel_pstate_hwp_set()
and apply the frequency changes only to the concerned CPUs.

For ->set_policy() path, we are only concerned about policy->cpus, and
so policy->rwsem lock taken by the core prior to calling ->set_policy()
is enough to take care of any races. The larger lock acquired by
get_online_cpus() is required only for the updates to sysfs files.

Add another routine, intel_pstate_hwp_set_online_cpus(), and call it
from the sysfs update paths.

This also fixes a lockdep reported recently, where policy->rwsem and
get_online_cpus() could have been acquired in any order causing an ABBA
deadlock. The sequence of events leading to that was:

intel_pstate_init(...)
	...cpufreq_online(...)
		down_write(&policy->rwsem); // Locks policy->rwsem
		...
		cpufreq_init_policy(policy);
			...intel_pstate_hwp_set();
				get_online_cpus(); // Temporarily locks cpu_hotplug.lock
		...
		up_write(&policy->rwsem);

pm_suspend(...)
	...disable_nonboot_cpus()
		_cpu_down()
			cpu_hotplug_begin(); // Locks cpu_hotplug.lock
			__cpu_notify(CPU_DOWN_PREPARE, ...);
				...cpufreq_offline_prepare();
					down_write(&policy->rwsem); // Locks policy->rwsem
