Stratos Karafotis 5eeaf1f189 cpufreq: Fix build error on some platforms that use cpufreq_for_each_*
On platforms that use cpufreq_for_each_* macros, build fails if
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ=n, e.g. ARM/shmobile/koelsch/non-multiplatform:

drivers/built-in.o: In function `clk_round_parent':

drivers/built-in.o: In function `clk_rate_table_find':
clkdev.c:(.text+0xcf820): undefined reference to `cpufreq_next_valid'
make[3]: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

Fix this making cpufreq_next_valid function inline and move it to
cpufreq.h.

Nishanth Menon a0dd7b7965 PM / OPP: Move cpufreq specific OPP functions out of generic OPP library
CPUFreq specific helper functions for OPP (Operating Performance Points)
now use generic OPP functions that allow CPUFreq to be be moved back
into CPUFreq framework. This allows for independent modifications
or future enhancements as needed isolated to just CPUFreq framework
alone.

Here, we just move relevant code and documentation to make this part of
CPUFreq infrastructure.

Srivatsa S. Bhat ca654dc3a9 cpufreq: Catch double invocations of cpufreq_freq_transition_begin/end
Some cpufreq drivers were redundantly invoking the _begin() and _end()
APIs around frequency transitions, and this double invocation (one from
the cpufreq core and the other from the cpufreq driver) used to result
in a self-deadlock, leading to system hangs during boot. (The _begin()
API makes contending callers wait until the previous invocation is
complete. Hence, the cpufreq driver would end up waiting on itself!).

Now all such drivers have been fixed, but debugging this issue was not
very straight-forward (even lockdep didn't catch this). So let us add a
debug infrastructure to the cpufreq core to catch such issues more easily
in the future.

We add a new field called 'transition_task' to the policy structure, to keep
track of the task which is performing the frequency transition. Using this
field, we make note of this task during _begin() and print a warning if we
find a case where the same task is calling _begin() again, before completing
the previous frequency transition using the corresponding _end().

We have left out ASYNC_NOTIFICATION drivers from this debug infrastructure
for 2 reasons:

1. At the moment, we have no way to avoid a particular scenario where this
   debug infrastructure can emit false-positive warnings for such drivers.
   The scenario is depicted below:

         Task A						Task B

    /* 1st freq transition */
    Invoke _begin() {
            ...
            ...
    }

    Change the frequency

    /* 2nd freq transition */
    Invoke _begin() {
	    ...	//waiting for B to
            ... //finish _end() for
	    ... //the 1st transition
	    ...	      |				Got interrupt for successful
	    ...	      |				change of frequency (1st one).
	    ...       |
	    ...	      |				/* 1st freq transition */
	    ...	      |				Invoke _end() {
	    ...	      |					...
	    ...	      V				}
	    ...
	    ...
    }

   This scenario is actually deadlock-free because, once Task A changes the
   frequency, it is Task B's responsibility to invoke the corresponding
   _end() for the 1st frequency transition. Hence it is perfectly legal for
   Task A to go ahead and attempt another frequency transition in the meantime.
   (Of course it won't be able to proceed until Task B finishes the 1st _end(),
   but this doesn't cause a deadlock or a hang).

   The debug infrastructure cannot handle this scenario and will treat it as
   a deadlock and print a warning. To avoid this, we exclude such drivers
   from the purview of this code.

2. Luckily, we don't _need_ this infrastructure for ASYNC_NOTIFICATION drivers
   at all! The cpufreq core does not automatically invoke the _begin() and
   _end() APIs during frequency transitions in such drivers. Thus, the driver
   alone is responsible for invoking _begin()/_end() and hence there shouldn't
   be any conflicts which lead to double invocations. So, we can skip these
   drivers, since the probability that such drivers will hit this problem is
   extremely low, as outlined above.

Stratos Karafotis 27e289dce2 cpufreq: Introduce macros for cpufreq_frequency_table iteration
Many cpufreq drivers need to iterate over the cpufreq_frequency_table
for various tasks.

This patch introduces two macros which can be used for iteration over
cpufreq_frequency_table keeping a common coding style across drivers:

- cpufreq_for_each_entry: iterate over each entry of the table
- cpufreq_for_each_valid_entry: iterate over each entry that contains
a valid frequency.

It should have no functional changes.

Viresh Kumar 7f4b04614a cpufreq: create another field .flags in cpufreq_frequency_table
Currently cpufreq frequency table has two fields: frequency and driver_data.
driver_data is only for drivers' internal use and cpufreq core shouldn't use
it at all. But with the introduction of BOOST frequencies, this assumption
was broken and we started using it as a flag instead.

There are two problems due to this:
- It is against the description of this field, as driver's data is used by
  the core now.
- if drivers fill it with -3 for any frequency, then those frequencies are
  never considered by cpufreq core as it is exactly same as value of
  CPUFREQ_BOOST_FREQ, i.e. ~2.

The best way to get this fixed is by creating another field flags which
will be used for such flags. This patch does that. Along with that various
drivers need modifications due to the change of struct cpufreq_frequency_table.

Srivatsa S. Bhat 12478cf0c5 cpufreq: Make sure frequency transitions are serialized
Whenever we change the frequency of a CPU, we call the PRECHANGE and POSTCHANGE
notifiers. They must be serialized, i.e. PRECHANGE and POSTCHANGE notifiers
should strictly alternate, thereby preventing two different sets of PRECHANGE or
POSTCHANGE notifiers from interleaving arbitrarily.

The following examples illustrate why this is important:

Scenario 1:
-----------
A thread reading the value of cpuinfo_cur_freq, will call
__cpufreq_cpu_get()->cpufreq_out_of_sync()->cpufreq_notify_transition()

The ondemand governor can decide to change the frequency of the CPU at the same
time and hence it can end up sending the notifications via ->target().

If the notifiers are not serialized, the following sequence can occur:
- PRECHANGE Notification for freq A (from cpuinfo_cur_freq)
- PRECHANGE Notification for freq B (from target())
- Freq changed by target() to B
- POSTCHANGE Notification for freq B
- POSTCHANGE Notification for freq A

We can see from the above that the last POSTCHANGE Notification happens for freq
A but the hardware is set to run at freq B.

Where would we break then?: adjust_jiffies() in cpufreq.c & cpufreq_callback()
in arch/arm/kernel/smp.c (which also adjusts the jiffies). All the
loops_per_jiffy calculations will get messed up.

Scenario 2:
-----------
The governor calls __cpufreq_driver_target() to change the frequency. At the
same time, if we change scaling_{min|max}_freq from sysfs, it will end up
calling the governor's CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS notification, which will also call
__cpufreq_driver_target(). And hence we end up issuing concurrent calls to
->target().

Typically, platforms have the following logic in their ->target() routines:
(Eg: cpufreq-cpu0, omap, exynos, etc)

A. If new freq is more than old: Increase voltage
B. Change freq
C. If new freq is less than old: decrease voltage

Now, if the two concurrent calls to ->target() are X and Y, where X is trying to
increase the freq and Y is trying to decrease it, we get the following race
condition:

X.A: voltage gets increased for larger freq
Y.A: nothing happens
Y.B: freq gets decreased
Y.C: voltage gets decreased
X.B: freq gets increased
X.C: nothing happens

Thus we can end up setting a freq which is not supported by the voltage we have
set. That will probably make the clock to the CPU unstable and the system might
not work properly anymore.

This patch introduces a set of synchronization primitives to serialize frequency
transitions, which are to be used as shown below:

cpufreq_freq_transition_begin();

//Perform the frequency change

cpufreq_freq_transition_end();

The _begin() call sends the PRECHANGE notification whereas the _end() call sends
the POSTCHANGE notification. Also, all the necessary synchronization is handled
within these calls. In particular, even drivers which set the ASYNC_NOTIFICATION
flag can also use these APIs for performing frequency transitions (ie., you can
call _begin() from one task, and call the corresponding _end() from a different
task).

The actual synchronization underneath is not that complicated:

The key challenge is to allow drivers to begin the transition from one thread
and end it in a completely different thread (this is to enable drivers that do
asynchronous POSTCHANGE notification from bottom-halves, to also use the same
interface).

To achieve this, a 'transition_ongoing' flag, a 'transition_lock' spinlock and a
wait-queue are added per-policy. The flag and the wait-queue are used in
conjunction to create an "uninterrupted flow" from _begin() to _end(). The
spinlock is used to ensure that only one such "flow" is in flight at any given
time. Put together, this provides us all the necessary synchronization.

Dirk Brandewie 367dc4aa93 cpufreq: Add stop CPU callback to cpufreq_driver interface
This callback allows the driver to do clean up before the CPU is
completely down and its state cannot be modified.  This is used
by the intel_pstate driver to reduce the requested P state prior to
the core going away.  This is required because the requested P state
of the offline core is used to select the package P state. This
effectively sets the floor package P state to the requested P state on
the offline core.

Viresh Kumar 2f0aea9363 cpufreq: suspend governors on system suspend/hibernate
This patch adds cpufreq suspend/resume calls to dpm_{suspend|resume}()
for handling suspend/resume of cpufreq governors.

Lan Tianyu (Intel) & Jinhyuk Choi (Broadcom) found an issue where the
tunables configuration for clusters/sockets with non-boot CPUs was
lost after system suspend/resume, as we were notifying governors with
CPUFREQ_GOV_POLICY_EXIT on removal of the last CPU for that policy
which caused the tunables memory to be freed.

This is fixed by preventing any governor operations from being
carried out between the device suspend and device resume stages of
system suspend and resume, respectively.

We could have added these callbacks at dpm_{suspend|resume}_noirq()
level, but there is an additional problem that the majority of I/O
devices is already suspended at that point and if cpufreq drivers
want to change the frequency before suspending, then that not be
possible on some platforms (which depend on peripherals like i2c,
regulators, etc).

Lukasz Majewski 6f19efc0a1 cpufreq: Add boost frequency support in core
This commit adds boost frequency support in cpufreq core (Hardware &
Software). Some SoCs (like Exynos4 - e.g. 4x12) allow setting frequency
above its normal operation limits. Such mode shall be only used for a
short time.

Overclocking (boost) support is essentially provided by platform
dependent cpufreq driver.

This commit unifies support for SW and HW (Intel) overclocking solutions
in the core cpufreq driver. Previously the "boost" sysfs attribute was
defined in the ACPI processor driver code. By default boost is disabled.
One global attribute is available at: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost.

It only shows up when cpufreq driver supports overclocking.
Under the hood frequencies dedicated for boosting are marked with a
special flag (CPUFREQ_BOOST_FREQ) at driver's frequency table.
It is the user's concern to enable/disable overclocking with a proper call
to sysfs.

The cpufreq_boost_trigger_state() function is defined non static on purpose.
It is used later with thermal subsystem to provide automatic enable/disable
of the BOOST feature.

Viresh Kumar fcd7af917a cpufreq: stats: handle cpufreq_unregister_driver() and suspend/resume properly
There are several problems with cpufreq stats in the way it handles
cpufreq_unregister_driver() and suspend/resume..

 - We must not lose data collected so far when suspend/resume happens
   and so stats directories must not be removed/allocated during these
   operations, which is done currently.

 - cpufreq_stat has registered notifiers with both cpufreq and hotplug.
   It adds sysfs stats directory with a cpufreq notifier: CPUFREQ_NOTIFY
   and removes this directory with a notifier from hotplug core.

   In case cpufreq_unregister_driver() is called (on rmmod cpufreq driver),
   stats directories per cpu aren't removed as CPUs are still online. The
   only call cpufreq_stats gets is cpufreq_stats_update_policy_cpu() for
   all CPUs except the last of each policy. And pointer to stat information
   is stored in the entry for last CPU in the per-cpu cpufreq_stats_table.
   But policy structure would be freed inside cpufreq core and so that will
   result in memory leak inside cpufreq stats (as we are never freeing
   memory for stats).

   Now if we again insert the module cpufreq_register_driver() will be
   called and we will again allocate stats data and put it on for first
   CPU of every policy.  In case we only have a single CPU per policy, we
   will return with a error from cpufreq_stats_create_table() due to this
   code:

	if (per_cpu(cpufreq_stats_table, cpu))
		return -EBUSY;

   And so probably cpufreq stats directory would not show up anymore (as
   it was added inside last policies->kobj which doesn't exist anymore).
   I haven't tested it, though. Also the values in stats files wouldn't
   be refreshed as we are using the earlier stats structure.

 - CPUFREQ_NOTIFY is called from cpufreq_set_policy() which is called for
   scenarios where we don't really want cpufreq_stat_notifier_policy() to get
   called. For example whenever we are changing anything related to a policy:
   min/max/current freq, etc. cpufreq_set_policy() is called and so cpufreq
   stats is notified. Where we don't do any useful stuff other than simply
   returning with -EBUSY from cpufreq_stats_create_table(). And so this
   isn't the right notifier that cpufreq stats..

 Due to all above reasons this patch does following changes:
 - Add new notifiers CPUFREQ_CREATE_POLICY and CPUFREQ_REMOVE_POLICY,
   which are only called when policy is created/destroyed. They aren't
   called for suspend/resume paths..
 - Use these notifiers in cpufreq_stat_notifier_policy() to create/destory
   stats sysfs entries. And so cpufreq_unregister_driver() or suspend/resume
   shouldn't be a problem for cpufreq_stats.
 - Return early from cpufreq_stat_cpu_callback() for suspend/resume sequence,
   so that we don't free stats structure.

Viresh Kumar d3916691c9 cpufreq: Make sure CPU is running on a freq from freq-table
Sometimes boot loaders set CPU frequency to a value outside of frequency table
present with cpufreq core. In such cases CPU might be unstable if it has to run
on that frequency for long duration of time and so its better to set it to a
frequency which is specified in freq-table. This also makes cpufreq stats
inconsistent as cpufreq-stats would fail to register because current frequency
of CPU isn't found in freq-table.

Because we don't want this change to affect boot process badly, we go for the
next freq which is >= policy->cur ('cur' must be set by now, otherwise we will
end up setting freq to lowest of the table as 'cur' is initialized to zero).

In case current frequency doesn't match any frequency from freq-table, we throw
warnings to user, so that user can get this fixed in their bootloaders or
freq-tables.

Viresh Kumar ae6b427132 cpufreq: Mark ARM drivers with CPUFREQ_NEED_INITIAL_FREQ_CHECK flag
Sometimes boot loaders set CPU frequency to a value outside of frequency table
present with cpufreq core. In such cases CPU might be unstable if it has to run
on that frequency for long duration of time and so its better to set it to a
frequency which is specified in frequency table.

On some systems we can't really say what frequency we're running at the moment
and so for these we shouldn't check if we are running at a frequency present in
frequency table. And so we really can't force this for all the cpufreq drivers.

Hence we are created another flag here: CPUFREQ_NEED_INITIAL_FREQ_CHECK that
will be marked by platforms which want to go for this check at boot time.

Initially this is done for all ARM platforms but others may follow if required.

Viresh Kumar 7dbf694db6 cpufreq: distinguish drivers that do asynchronous notifications
There are few special cases like exynos5440 which doesn't send POSTCHANGE
notification from their ->target() routine and call some kind of bottom halves
for doing this work, work/tasklet/etc.. From which they finally send POSTCHANGE
notification.

Its better if we distinguish them from other cpufreq drivers in some way so that
core can handle them specially. So this patch introduces another flag:
CPUFREQ_ASYNC_NOTIFICATION, which will be set by such drivers.

This also changes exynos5440-cpufreq.c and powernow-k8 in order to set this
flag.

viresh kumar ad7722dab7 cpufreq: create per policy rwsem instead of per CPU cpu_policy_rwsem
We have per-CPU cpu_policy_rwsem for cpufreq core, but we never use
all of them. We always use rwsem of policy->cpu and so we can
actually make this rwsem per policy instead.

This patch does this change. With this change other tricky situations
are also avoided now, like which lock to take while we are changing
policy->cpu, etc.

Viresh Kumar 9c0ebcf78f cpufreq: Implement light weight ->target_index() routine
Currently, the prototype of cpufreq_drivers target routines is:

int target(struct cpufreq_policy *policy, unsigned int target_freq,
		unsigned int relation);

And most of the drivers call cpufreq_frequency_table_target() to get a valid
index of their frequency table which is closest to the target_freq. And they
don't use target_freq and relation after that.

So, it makes sense to just do this work in cpufreq core before calling
cpufreq_frequency_table_target() and simply pass index instead. But this can be
done only with drivers which expose their frequency table with cpufreq core. For
others we need to stick with the old prototype of target() until those drivers
are converted to expose frequency tables.

This patch implements the new light weight prototype for target_index() routine.
It looks like this:

int target_index(struct cpufreq_policy *policy, unsigned int index);

CPUFreq core will call cpufreq_frequency_table_target() before calling this
routine and pass index to it. Because CPUFreq core now requires to call routines
present in freq_table.c CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_TABLE must be enabled all the time.

This also marks target() interface as deprecated. So, that new drivers avoid
using it. And Documentation is updated accordingly.

It also converts existing .target() to newly defined light weight
.target_index() routine for many driver.

Viresh Kumar 19c763031a cpufreq: serialize calls to __cpufreq_governor()
We can't take a big lock around __cpufreq_governor() as this causes
recursive locking for some cases. But calls to this routine must be
serialized for every policy. Otherwise we can see some unpredictable
events.

For example, consider following scenario:

__cpufreq_remove_dev()
 __cpufreq_governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP);
   policy->governor->governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP);
    cpufreq_governor_dbs()
     case CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP:
      mutex_destroy(&cpu_cdbs->timer_mutex)
      cpu_cdbs->cur_policy = NULL;
  <PREEMPT>
store()
 __cpufreq_set_policy()
  __cpufreq_governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS);
    policy->governor->governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS);
     case CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS:
      mutex_lock(&cpu_cdbs->timer_mutex); <-- Warning (destroyed mutex)
       if (policy->max < cpu_cdbs->cur_policy->cur) <- cur_policy == NULL

And so store() will eventually result in a crash if cur_policy is
NULL at this point.

Introduce an additional variable which would guarantee serialization
here.

Viresh Kumar 266c13d767 cpufreq: Fix serialization of frequency transitions
Commit 7c30ed ("cpufreq: make sure frequency transitions are serialized")
interacts poorly with systems that have a single core freqency for all
cores.  On such systems we have a single policy for all cores with
several CPUs.  When we do a frequency transition the governor calls the
pre and post change notifiers which causes cpufreq_notify_transition()
per CPU.  Since the policy is the same for all of them all CPUs after
the first and the warnings added are generated by checking a per-policy
flag the warnings will be triggered for all cores after the first.

Fix this by allowing notifier to be called for n times. Where n is the number of
cpus in policy->cpus.

Xiaoguang Chen 95731ebb11 cpufreq: Fix governor start/stop race condition
Cpufreq governors' stop and start operations should be carried out
in sequence.  Otherwise, there will be unexpected behavior, like in
the example below.

Suppose there are 4 CPUs and policy->cpu=CPU0, CPU1/2/3 are linked
to CPU0.  The normal sequence is:

 1) Current governor is userspace.  An application tries to set the
    governor to ondemand.  It will call __cpufreq_set_policy() in
    which it will stop the userspace governor and then start the
    ondemand governor.

 2) Current governor is userspace.  The online of CPU3 runs on CPU0.
    It will call cpufreq_add_policy_cpu() in which it will first
    stop the userspace governor, and then start it again.

If the sequence of the above two cases interleaves, it becomes:

 1) Application stops userspace governor
 2)                                  Hotplug stops userspace governor

which is a problem, because the governor shouldn't be stopped twice
in a row.  What happens next is:

 3) Application starts ondemand governor
 4)                                  Hotplug starts a governor

In step 4, the hotplug is supposed to start the userspace governor,
but now the governor has been changed by the application to ondemand,
so the ondemand governor is started once again, which is incorrect.

The solution is to prevent policy governors from being stopped
multiple times in a row.  A governor should only be stopped once for
one policy.  After it has been stopped, no more governor stop
operations should be executed.

Also add a mutex to serialize governor operations.

Many people nowadays blindly set it in ascending order with the
assumption that the core will use it, which is a mistake.

Rename it to "driver_data" as that's what its purpose is. All of its
users are updated accordingly.

Viresh Kumar 2361be2366 cpufreq: Don't create empty /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq directory
When we don't have any file in cpu/cpufreq directory we shouldn't
create it. Specially with the introduction of per-policy governor
instance patchset, even governors are moved to
cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/governor-name directory and so this directory is
just not required.

Lets have it only when required.

Viresh Kumar 72a4ce340a cpufreq: Move get_cpu_idle_time() to cpufreq.c
Governors other than ondemand and conservative can also use
get_cpu_idle_time() and they aren't required to compile
cpufreq_governor.c. So, move these independent routines to
cpufreq.c instead.
