Andreas Schwab a857c0b9e2 cpufreq: Fix wrong time unit conversion
The time spent by a CPU under a given frequency is stored in jiffies unit
in the cpu var cpufreq_stats_table->time_in_state[i], i being the index of
the frequency.

This is what is displayed in the following file on the right column:

     cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state
     2301000 19835820
     2300000 3172
     [...]

Now cpufreq converts this jiffies unit delta to clock_t before returning it
to the user as in the above file. And that conversion is achieved using the API
cputime64_to_clock_t().

Although it accidentally works on traditional tick based cputime accounting, where
cputime_t maps directly to jiffies, it doesn't work with other types of cputime
accounting such as CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_* where cputime_t can map to nsecs
or any granularity preffered by the architecture.

For example we get a buggy zero delta on full dyntick configurations:

     cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state
     2301000 0
     2300000 0
     [...]

Fix this with using the proper jiffies_64_t to clock_t conversion.

Viresh Kumar d5b73cd870 cpufreq: Use sizeof(*ptr) convetion for computing sizes
Chapter 14 of Documentation/CodingStyle says:

The preferred form for passing a size of a struct is the following:

	p = kmalloc(sizeof(*p), ...);

The alternative form where struct name is spelled out hurts
readability and introduces an opportunity for a bug when the pointer
variable type is changed but the corresponding sizeof that is passed
to a memory allocator is not.

This wasn't followed consistently in drivers/cpufreq, let's make it
more consistent by always following this rule.

Viresh Kumar 5ff0a26803 cpufreq: Clean up header files included in the core
This patch addresses the following issues in the header files in the
cpufreq core:
 - Include headers in ascending order, so that we don't add same
   many times by mistake.
 - <asm/> must be included after <linux/>, so that they override
   whatever they need to.
 - Remove unnecessary includes.
 - Don't include files already included by cpufreq.h or
   cpufreq_governor.h.

Srivatsa S. Bhat 5302c3fb2e cpufreq: Perform light-weight init/teardown during suspend/resume
Now that we have the infrastructure to perform a light-weight init/tear-down,
use that in the cpufreq CPU hotplug notifier when invoked from the
suspend/resume path.

This also ensures that the file permissions of the cpufreq sysfs files are
preserved across suspend/resume, something which commit a66b2e (cpufreq:
Preserve sysfs files across suspend/resume) originally intended to do, but
had to be reverted due to other problems.

Srivatsa S. Bhat 23d328994b cpufreq: Fix misplaced call to cpufreq_update_policy()
The call to cpufreq_update_policy() is placed in the CPU hotplug callback
of cpufreq_stats, which has a higher priority than the CPU hotplug callback
of cpufreq-core. As a result, during CPU_ONLINE/CPU_ONLINE_FROZEN, we end up
calling cpufreq_update_policy() *before* calling cpufreq_add_dev() !
And for uninitialized CPUs, it just returns silently, not doing anything.

To add to that, cpufreq_stats is not even the right place to call
cpufreq_update_policy() to begin with. The cpufreq core ought to handle
this in its own callback, from an elegance/relevance perspective.

So move the invocation of cpufreq_update_policy() to cpufreq_cpu_callback,
and place it *after* cpufreq_add_dev().

Paul Gortmaker 2760984f65 cpufreq: delete __cpuinit usage from all cpufreq files
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

This removes all the drivers/cpufreq uses of the __cpuinit macros
from all C files.

Srivatsa S. Bhat aae760ed21 cpufreq: Revert commit a66b2e to fix suspend/resume regression
commit a66b2e (cpufreq: Preserve sysfs files across suspend/resume)
has unfortunately caused several things in the cpufreq subsystem to
break subtly after a suspend/resume cycle.

The intention of that patch was to retain the file permissions of the
cpufreq related sysfs files across suspend/resume.  To achieve that,
the commit completely removed the calls to cpufreq_add_dev() and
__cpufreq_remove_dev() during suspend/resume transitions.  But the
problem is that those functions do 2 kinds of things:
  1. Low-level initialization/tear-down that are critical to the
     correct functioning of cpufreq-core.
  2. Kobject and sysfs related initialization/teardown.

Ideally we should have reorganized the code to cleanly separate these
two responsibilities, and skipped only the sysfs related parts during
suspend/resume.  Since we skipped the entire callbacks instead (which
also included some CPU and cpufreq-specific critical components),
cpufreq subsystem started behaving erratically after suspend/resume.

So revert the commit to fix the regression.  We'll revisit and address
the original goal of that commit separately, since it involves quite a
bit of careful code reorganization and appears to be non-trivial.

(While reverting the commit, note that another commit f51e1eb
 (cpufreq: Fix cpufreq regression after suspend/resume) already
 reverted part of the original set of changes.  So revert only the
 remaining ones).

Srivatsa S. Bhat f51e1eb63d cpufreq: Fix cpufreq regression after suspend/resume
Toralf Förster reported that the cpufreq ondemand governor behaves erratically
(doesn't scale well) after a suspend/resume cycle. The problem was that the
cpufreq subsystem's idea of the cpu frequencies differed from the actual
frequencies set in the hardware after a suspend/resume cycle. Toralf bisected
the problem to commit a66b2e5 (cpufreq: Preserve sysfs files across
suspend/resume).

Among other (harmless) things, that commit skipped the call to
cpufreq_update_policy() in the resume path. But cpufreq_update_policy() plays
an important role during resume, because it is responsible for checking if
the BIOS changed the cpu frequencies behind our back and resynchronize the
cpufreq subsystem's knowledge of the cpu frequencies, and update them
accordingly.

So, restore the call to cpufreq_update_policy() in the resume path to fix
the cpufreq regression.

Srivatsa S. Bhat a66b2e503f cpufreq: Preserve sysfs files across suspend/resume
The file permissions of cpufreq per-cpu sysfs files are not preserved
across suspend/resume because we internally go through the CPU
Hotplug path which reinitializes the file permissions on CPU online.

But the user is not supposed to know that we are using CPU hotplug
internally within suspend/resume (IOW, the kernel should not silently
wreck the user-set file permissions across a suspend cycle).
Therefore, we need to preserve the file permissions as they are
across suspend/resume.

The simplest way to achieve that is to just not touch the sysfs files
at all - ie., just ignore the CPU hotplug notifications in the
suspend/resume path (_FROZEN) in the cpufreq hotplug callback.

Viresh Kumar b8eed8af94 cpufreq: Simplify __cpufreq_remove_dev()
__cpufreq_remove_dev() is called on multiple occasions: cpufreq_driver
unregister and cpu removals.

Current implementation of this routine is overly complex without much need. If
the cpu to be removed is the policy->cpu, we remove the policy first and add all
other cpus again from policy->cpus and then finally call __cpufreq_remove_dev()
again to remove the cpu to be deleted. Haahhhh..

There exist a simple solution to removal of a cpu:
- Simply use the old policy structure
- update its fields like: policy->cpu, etc.
- notify any users of cpufreq, which depend on changing policy->cpu

Hence this patch, which tries to implement the above theory. It is tested well
by myself on ARM big.LITTLE TC2 SoC, which has 5 cores (2 A15 and 3 A7). Both
A15's share same struct policy and all A7's share same policy structure.

implemented as subsystem interfaces now.

After all sysdev classes are ported to regular driver core entities, the
sysdev implementation will be entirely removed from the kernel.

Userspace relies on events and generic sysfs subsystem infrastructure
from sysdev devices, which are made available with this conversion.

Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 46a310b80b [CPUFREQ] Don't set stat->last_index to -1 if the pol->cur has incorrect value.
If the driver submitted an non-existing pol>cur value (say it
used the default initialized value of zero), when the cpufreq
stats tries to setup its initial values it incorrectly sets
stat->last_index to -1 (or 0xfffff...). And cpufreq_stats_update
tries to update at that index location and fails.

This can be caused by:

stat->last_index = freq_table_get_index(stat, policy->cur);

not finding the appropiate frequency in the table (b/c the policy->cur
is wrong) and we end up crashing. The fix however is
concentrated in the 'cpufreq_stats_update' as the last_index
(and old_index) are updated there. Which means it can reset
the last_index to -1 again and on the next iteration cause a crash.

Without this patch, the following crash is observed:

steven finney 98586ed8b8 [CPUFREQ] Fix memory leak in cpufreq_stat
When a CPU is taken offline in an SMP system, cpufreq_remove_dev()
nulls out the per-cpu policy before cpufreq_stats_free_table() can
make use of it.  cpufreq_stats_free_table() then skips the
call to sysfs_remove_group(), leaving about 100 bytes of sysfs-related

cpu_stats_free_table into sysfs and table portions, and
call the sysfs portion early.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking 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.

Tejun Heo 7b595756ec sysfs: kill unnecessary attribute->owner
sysfs is now completely out of driver/module lifetime game.  After
deletion, a sysfs node doesn't access anything outside sysfs proper,
so there's no reason to hold onto the attribute owners.  Note that
often the wrong modules were accounted for as owners leading to
accessing removed modules.

This patch kills now unnecessary attribute->owner.  Note that with
this change, userland holding a sysfs node does not prevent the
backing module from being unloaded.

Rafael J. Wysocki 8bb7844286 Add suspend-related notifications for CPU hotplug
Since nonboot CPUs are now disabled after tasks and devices have been
frozen and the CPU hotplug infrastructure is used for this purpose, we need
special CPU hotplug notifications that will help the CPU-hotplug-aware
subsystems distinguish normal CPU hotplug events from CPU hotplug events
related to a system-wide suspend or resume operation in progress.  This
patch introduces such notifications and causes them to be used during
suspend and resume transitions.  It also changes all of the
CPU-hotplug-aware subsystems to take these notifications into consideration
(for now they are handled in the same way as the corresponding "normal"
ones).

Sam Ravnborg bb1a813d3c [PATCH] cpufreq: fix section mismatch warnings
cpufreq are the only remaining bit to be solved for me to have a modpost
clean build for sparc64 - so I took one more look at it.
changelog entry:

Fix section mismatch warnings in cpufreq:
WARNING: drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_stats.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .data between 'cpufreq_stat_cpu_notifier' (at offset 0xa8) and 'notifier_policy_block'
WARNING: drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_stats.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .exit.text after 'cleanup_module' (at offset 0x30)

The culprint is the function: cpufreq_stat_cpu_callback
It is marked __cpuinit which get's redefined to __init in case
HOTPLUG_CPU is not enabled as per. init.h:

#ifdef CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU
#define __cpuinit
#else
#define __cpuinit       __init
#endif

$> grep HOTPLUG .config
CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y

But cpufreq_stat_cpu_callback() is used in:
__exit cpufreq_stats_exit()
static struct notifier_block cpufreq_stat_cpu_notifier

cpufreq_stat_cpu_notifier is again used in:
__init cpufreq_stats_init()
__exit cpufreq_stats_exit()

So in both cases used from both __init and __exit context.
Only solution seems to drop __cpuinit tag.

Ashok Raj c32b6b8e52 [PATCH] create and destroy cpufreq sysfs entries based on cpu notifiers
cpufreq entries in sysfs should only be populated when CPU is online state.
 When we either boot with maxcpus=x and then boot the other cpus by echoing
to sysfs online file, these entries should be created and destroyed when
CPU_DEAD is notified.  Same treatement as cache entries under sysfs.

We place the processor in the lowest frequency, so hw managed P-State
transitions can still work on the other threads to save power.

Primary goal was to just make these directories appear/disapper dynamically.

There is one in this patch i had to do, which i really dont like myself but
probably best if someone handling the cpufreq infrastructure could give
this code right treatment if this is not acceptable.  I guess its probably
good for the first cut.

- Converting lock_cpu_hotplug()/unlock_cpu_hotplug() to disable/enable preempt.
  The locking was smack in the middle of the notification path, when the
  hotplug is already holding the lock. I tried another solution to avoid this
  so avoid taking locks if we know we are from notification path. The solution
  was getting very ugly and i decided this was probably good for this iteration
  until someone who understands cpufreq could do a better job than me.
