The name of the prev_cpu_wall field in struct cpu_dbs_info is
confusing, because it doesn't represent wall time, but the previous
update time as returned by get_cpu_idle_time() (that may be the
current value of jiffies_64 in some cases, for example).
Moreover, the names of some related variables in dbs_update() take
that confusion further.
Rename all of those things to make their names reflect the purpose
more accurately. While at it, drop unnecessary parens from one of
the updated expressions.
No functional changes.

For platforms which are controlled via remove node manager, enable _PPC by
default. These platforms are mostly categorized as enterprise server or
performance servers. These platforms needs to go through some
certifications tests, which tests control via _PPC.
The relative risk of enabling by default is low as this is is less likely
that these systems have broken _PSS table.

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.

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.

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:

The frequency transition latency from pmin to pmax is observed to be in
few millisecond granurality. And it usually happens to take a performance
penalty during sudden frequency rampup requests.
This patch set solves this problem by using an entity called "global
pstates". The global pstate is a Chip-level entity, so the global entitiy
(Voltage) is managed across the cores. The local pstate is a Core-level
entity, so the local entity (frequency) is managed across threads.
This patch brings down global pstate at a slower rate than the local
pstate. Hence by holding global pstates higher than local pstate makes
the subsequent rampups faster.
A per policy structure is maintained to keep track of the global and
local pstate changes. The global pstate is brought down using a parabolic
equation. The ramp down time to pmin is set to ~5 seconds. To make sure
that the global pstates are dropped at regular interval , a timer is
queued for every 2 seconds during ramp-down phase, which eventually brings
the pstate down to local pstate.
Iozone results show fairly consistent performance boost.
YCSB on redis shows improved Max latencies in most cases.

The way cpufreq_governor_start() initializes j_cdbs->prev_load is
questionable.
First off, j_cdbs->prev_cpu_wall used as a denominator in the
computation may be zero. The case this happens is when
get_cpu_idle_time_us() returns -1 and get_cpu_idle_time_jiffy()
used to return that number is called exactly at the jiffies_64
wrap time. It is rather hard to trigger that error, but it is not
impossible and it will just crash the kernel then.
Second, j_cdbs->prev_load is computed as the average load during
the entire time since the system started and it may not reflect the
load in the previous sampling period (as it is expected to).
That doesn't play well with the way dbs_update() uses that value.
Namely, if the update time delta (wall_time) happens do be greater
than twice the sampling rate on the first invocation of it, the
initial value of j_cdbs->prev_load (which may be completely off) will
be returned to the caller as the current load (unless it is equal to
zero and unless another CPU sharing the same policy object has a
greater load value).
For this reason, notice that the prev_load field of struct cpu_dbs_info
is only used by dbs_update() and only in that one place, so if
cpufreq_governor_start() is modified to always initialize it to 0,
it will make dbs_update() always compute the actual load first time
it checks the update time delta against the doubled sampling rate
(after initialization) and there won't be any side effects of it.
Consequently, modify cpufreq_governor_start() as described.

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.

Since governor operations are generally skipped if cpufreq_suspended
is set, cpufreq_start_governor() should do nothing in that case.
That function is called in the cpufreq_online() path, and may also
be called from cpufreq_offline() in some cases, which are invoked
by the nonboot CPUs disabing/enabling code during system suspend
to RAM and resume. That happens when all devices have been
suspended, so if the cpufreq driver relies on things like I2C to
get the current frequency, it may not be ready to do that then.
To prevent problems from happening for this reason, make
cpufreq_update_current_freq(), which is the only function invoked
by cpufreq_start_governor() that doesn't check cpufreq_suspended
already, return 0 upfront if cpufreq_suspended is set.

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

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%.

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.

Multiple platforms are using the generic cpufreq-dt driver now, and all
of them are required to create a platform device with name "cpufreq-dt",
in order to get the cpufreq-dt probed.
Many of them do it from platform code, others have special drivers just
to do that.
It would be more sensible to do this at a generic place, where all such
platform can mark their entries.
This patch adds a separate file to get this device created. Currently
the compat list of platforms that we support is empty, and will be
filled in as and when we move platforms to use it.
It always compiles as part of the kernel and so doesn't need a
module-exit operation.

The Kconfig for this driver is currently:
config CPU_FREQ_CBE_PMI
bool "CBE frequency scaling using PMI interface"
...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by
anyone. Lets remove the modular and unused code here, so that
when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.
Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular
case, the init ordering remains unchanged with this commit.
We also delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag etc. since all that information
is already contained at the top of the file in the comments.

Due to differences in the cpufreq core's handling of runtime CPU
offline and nonboot CPUs disabling during system suspend-to-RAM,
fast frequency switching gets disabled after a suspend-to-RAM and
resume cycle on all of the nonboot CPUs.
To prevent that from happening, move the invocation of
cpufreq_disable_fast_switch() from cpufreq_exit_governor() to
sugov_exit(), as the schedutil governor is the only user of fast
frequency switching today anyway.
That simply prevents cpufreq_disable_fast_switch() from being called
without invoking the ->governor callback for the CPUFREQ_GOV_POLICY_EXIT
event (which happens during system suspend now).

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.

Add a new cpufreq scaling governor, called "schedutil", that uses
scheduler-provided CPU utilization information as input for making
its decisions.
Doing that is possible after commit 34e2c555f3 (cpufreq: Add
mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks) that
introduced cpufreq_update_util() called by the scheduler on
utilization changes (from CFS) and RT/DL task status updates.
In particular, CPU frequency scaling decisions may be based on
the the utilization data passed to cpufreq_update_util() by CFS.
The new governor is relatively simple.
The frequency selection formula used by it depends on whether or not
the utilization is frequency-invariant. In the frequency-invariant
case the new CPU frequency is given by
next_freq = 1.25 * max_freq * util / max
where util and max are the last two arguments of cpufreq_update_util().
In turn, if util is not frequency-invariant, the maximum frequency in
the above formula is replaced with the current frequency of the CPU:
next_freq = 1.25 * curr_freq * util / max
The coefficient 1.25 corresponds to the frequency tipping point at
(util / max) = 0.8.
All of the computations are carried out in the utilization update
handlers provided by the new governor. One of those handlers is
used for cpufreq policies shared between multiple CPUs and the other
one is for policies with one CPU only (and therefore it doesn't need
to use any extra synchronization means).
The governor supports fast frequency switching if that is supported
by the cpufreq driver in use and possible for the given policy.
In the fast switching case, all operations of the governor take
place in its utilization update handlers. If fast switching cannot
be used, the frequency switch operations are carried out with the
help of a work item which only calls __cpufreq_driver_target()
(under a mutex) to trigger a frequency update (to a value already
computed beforehand in one of the utilization update handlers).
Currently, the governor treats all of the RT and DL tasks as
"unknown utilization" and sets the frequency to the allowed
maximum when updated from the RT or DL sched classes. That
heavy-handed approach should be replaced with something more
subtle and specifically targeted at RT and DL tasks.
The governor shares some tunables management code with the
"ondemand" and "conservative" governors and uses some common
definitions from cpufreq_governor.h, but apart from that it
is stand-alone.

Modify the ACPI cpufreq driver to provide a method for switching
CPU frequencies from interrupt context and update the cpufreq core
to support that method if available.
Introduce a new cpufreq driver callback, ->fast_switch, to be
invoked for frequency switching from interrupt context by (future)
governors supporting that feature via (new) helper function
cpufreq_driver_fast_switch().
Add two new policy flags, fast_switch_possible, to be set by the
cpufreq driver if fast frequency switching can be used for the
given policy and fast_switch_enabled, to be set by the governor
if it is going to use fast frequency switching for the given
policy. Also add a helper for setting the latter.
Since fast frequency switching is inherently incompatible with
cpufreq transition notifiers, make it possible to set the
fast_switch_enabled only if there are no transition notifiers
already registered and make the registration of new transition
notifiers fail if fast_switch_enabled is set for at least one
policy.
Implement the ->fast_switch callback in the ACPI cpufreq driver
and make it set fast_switch_possible during policy initialization
as appropriate.
