Currently, intel_pstate doesn't register if _PSS is not present on
HP Proliant systems, because it expects the firmware to take over
CPU performance scaling in that case. However, if ACPI PCCH is
present, the firmware expects the kernel to use it for CPU
performance scaling and the pcc-cpufreq driver is loaded for that.
Unfortunately, the firmware interface used by that driver is not
scalable for fundamental reasons, so pcc-cpufreq is way suboptimal
on systems with more than just a few CPUs. In fact, it is better to
avoid using it at all.
For this reason, modify intel_pstate to look for ACPI PCCH if _PSS
is not present and register if it is there. Also prevent the
pcc-cpufreq driver from trying to initialize itself if intel_pstate
has been registered already.
Fixes: fbbcdc0744 (intel_pstate: skip the driver if ACPI has power mgmt option)

When scaling max/min settings are changed, internally they are converted
to a ratio using the max turbo 1 core turbo frequency. This works fine
when 1 core max is same irrespective of the core. But under Turbo 3.0,
this will not be the case. For example:
Core 0: max turbo pstate: 43 (4.3GHz)
Core 1: max turbo pstate: 45 (4.5GHz)
In this case 1 core turbo ratio will be maximum of all, so it will be
45 (4.5GHz). Suppose scaling max is set to 4GHz (ratio 40) for all cores
,then on core one it will be
= max_state * policy->max / max_freq;
= 43 * (4000000/4500000) = 38 (3.8GHz)
= 38
which is 200MHz less than the desired.
On core2, it will be correctly set to ratio 40 (4GHz). Same holds true
for scaling min frequency limit. So this requires usage of correct turbo
max frequency for core one, which in this case is 4.3GHz. So we need to
adjust per CPU cpu->pstate.turbo_freq using the maximum HWP ratio of that
core.
This change uses the HWP capability of a core to adjust max turbo
frequency. But since Broadwell HWP doesn't use ratios in the HWP
capabilities, we have to use legacy max 1 core turbo ratio. This is not
a problem as the HWP capabilities don't differ among cores in Broadwell.
We need to check for non Broadwell CPU model for applying this change,
though.

This change uses SCHED_CPUFREQ_IOWAIT flag to boost HWP performance.
Since SCHED_CPUFREQ_IOWAIT flag is set frequently, we don't start
boosting steps unless we see two consecutive flags in two ticks. This
avoids boosting due to IO because of regular system activities.
To avoid synchronization issues, the actual processing of the flag is
done on the local CPU callback.

Added two utility functions to HWP boost up gradually and boost down to
the default cached HWP request values.
Boost up:
Boost up updates HWP request minimum value in steps. This minimum value
can reach upto at HWP request maximum values depends on how frequently,
this boost up function is called. At max, boost up will take three steps
to reach the maximum, depending on the current HWP request levels and HWP
capabilities. For example, if the current settings are:
If P0 (Turbo max) = P1 (Guaranteed max) = min
No boost at all.
If P0 (Turbo max) > P1 (Guaranteed max) = min
Should result in one level boost only for P0.
If P0 (Turbo max) = P1 (Guaranteed max) > min
Should result in two level boost:
(min + p1)/2 and P1.
If P0 (Turbo max) > P1 (Guaranteed max) > min
Should result in three level boost:
(min + p1)/2, P1 and P0.
We don't set any level between P0 and P1 as there is no guarantee that
they will be honored.
Boost down:
After the system is idle for hold time of 3ms, the HWP request is reset
to the default value from HWP init or user modified one via sysfs.
Caching of HWP Request and Capabilities
Store the HWP request value last set using MSR_HWP_REQUEST and read
MSR_HWP_CAPABILITIES. This avoid reading of MSRs in the boost utility
functions.
These boost utility functions calculated limits are based on the latest
HWP request value, which can be modified by setpolicy() callback. So if
user space modifies the minimum perf value, that will be accounted for
every time the boost up is called. There will be case when there can be
contention with the user modified minimum perf, in that case user value
will gain precedence. For example just before HWP_REQUEST MSR is updated
from setpolicy() callback, the boost up function is called via scheduler
tick callback. Here the cached MSR value is already the latest and limits
are updated based on the latest user limits, but on return the MSR write
callback called from setpolicy() callback will update the HWP_REQUEST
value. This will be used till next time the boost up function is called.
In addition add a variable to control HWP dynamic boosting. When HWP
dynamic boost is active then set the HWP specific update util hook. The
contents in the utility hooks will be filled in the subsequent patches.

Allow use of the trace_pstate_sample trace function
when the intel_pstate driver is in passive mode.
Since the core_busy and scaled_busy fields are not
used, and it might be desirable to know which path
through the driver was used, either intel_cpufreq_target
or intel_cpufreq_fast_switch, re-task the core_busy
field as a flag indicator.
The user can then use the intel_pstate_tracer.py utility
to summarize and plot the trace.
Note: The core_busy feild still goes by that name
in include/trace/events/power.h and within the
intel_pstate_tracer.py script and csv file headers,
but it is graphed as "performance", and called
core_avg_perf now in the intel_pstate driver.
Sometimes, in passive mode, the driver is not called for
many tens or even hundreds of seconds. The user
needs to understand, and not be confused by, this limitation.

When maxcpus=1 is in the kernel command line, the BP is responsible
for re-enabling the HWP - because currently only the APs invoke

Based on the power and performance tests using intel_pstate scaling
algorithm the results are comparable. But intel_pstate brings in
additional features:
- Display of turbo frequency range, which many users like to see
- Place limits in the turbo frequency range when platform allows
Since these tests are done only using non PID algorithm introduced in

The intel_pstate CPU frequency scaling driver has always
calculated CPU frequency incorrectly. Recent changes have
eliminted most of the issues, however the frequency reported
in the trace buffer, if used, is incorrect.
It remains desireable that cpu->pstate.scaling still be a nice
round number for things such as when setting max and min frequencies.
So the proposal is to just fix the reported frequency in the trace data.
Fixes what remains of [1].

In the current implementation, the response latency between seeing
SCHED_CPUFREQ_IOWAIT set and the actual P-state adjustment can be up
to 10ms. It can be reduced by bumping up the P-state to the max at
the time SCHED_CPUFREQ_IOWAIT is passed to intel_pstate_update_util().
With this change, the IO performance improves significantly.
For a simple "grep -r . linux" (Here linux is the kernel source
folder) with caches dropped every time on a Broadwell Xeon workstation
with per-core P-states, the user and system time is shorter by as much
as 30% - 40%.
The same performance difference was not observed on clients that don't
support per-core P-state.

With Android UI and benchmarks the latency of cpufreq response to
certain scheduling events can become very critical. Currently, callbacks
into cpufreq governors are only made from the scheduler if the target
CPU of the event is the same as the current CPU. This means there are
certain situations where a target CPU may not run the cpufreq governor
for some time.
One testcase to show this behavior is where a task starts running on
CPU0, then a new task is also spawned on CPU0 by a task on CPU1. If the
system is configured such that the new tasks should receive maximum
demand initially, this should result in CPU0 increasing frequency
immediately. But because of the above mentioned limitation though, this
does not occur.
This patch updates the scheduler core to call the cpufreq callbacks for
remote CPUs as well.
The schedutil, ondemand and conservative governors are updated to
process cpufreq utilization update hooks called for remote CPUs where
the remote CPU is managed by the cpufreq policy of the local CPU.
The intel_pstate driver is updated to always reject remote callbacks.
This is tested with couple of usecases (Android: hackbench, recentfling,
galleryfling, vellamo, Ubuntu: hackbench) on ARM hikey board (64 bit
octa-core, single policy). Only galleryfling showed minor improvements,
while others didn't had much deviation.
The reason being that this patch only targets a corner case, where
following are required to be true to improve performance and that
doesn't happen too often with these tests:
- Task is migrated to another CPU.
- The task has high demand, and should take the target CPU to higher
OPPs.
- And the target CPU doesn't call into the cpufreq governor until the
next tick.
Based on initial work from Steve Muckle.

The ->get callback in the intel_pstate structure was mostly there
for the scaling_cur_freq sysfs attribute to work, but after commit
f8475cef90 (x86: use common aperfmperf_khz_on_cpu() to calculate
KHz using APERF/MPERF) that attribute uses arch_freq_get_on_cpu()
provided by the x86 arch code on all processors supported by
intel_pstate, so it doesn't need the ->get callback from the
driver any more.
Moreover, the very presence of the ->get callback in the intel_pstate
structure causes the cpuinfo_cur_freq attribute to be present when
intel_pstate operates in the active mode, which is bogus, because
the role of that attribute is to return the current CPU frequency
as seen by the hardware. For intel_pstate, though, this is just an
average frequency and not really current, but computed for the
previous sampling interval (the actual current frequency may be
way different at the point this value is obtained by reading from
cpuinfo_cur_freq), and after commit 82b4e03e01 (intel_pstate: skip
scheduler hook when in "performance" mode) the value in
cpuinfo_cur_freq may be stale or just 0, depending on the driver's
operation mode. In fact, however, on the hardware supported by
intel_pstate there is no way to read the current CPU frequency
from it, so the cpuinfo_cur_freq attribute should not be present
at all when this driver is in use.
For this reason, drop intel_pstate_get() and clear the ->get
callback pointer pointing to it, so that the cpuinfo_cur_freq is
not present for intel_pstate in the active mode any more.

All systems with a defined ACPI preferred profile that are not
"servers" have been using the load-based P-state selection algorithm
in intel_pstate since 4.12-rc1 (mobile systems and laptops have been
using it since 4.10-rc1) and no problems with it have been reported
to date. In particular, no regressions with respect to the PID-based
P-state selection have been reported. Also testing indicates that
the P-state selection algorithm based on CPU load is generally on par
with the PID-based algorithm performance-wise, and for some workloads
it turns out to be better than the other one, while being more
straightforward and easier to understand at the same time.
Moreover, the PID-based P-state selection algorithm in intel_pstate
is known to be unstable in some situation and generally problematic,
the issues with it are hard to address and it has become a
significant maintenance burden.
For these reasons, make intel_pstate use the "powersave" P-state
selection algorithm based on CPU load in the active mode on all
systems and drop the PID-based P-state selection code along with
all things related to it from the driver. Also update the
documentation accordingly.

The busy percent calculated for the Knights Landing (KNL) platform
is 1024 times smaller than the correct busy value. This causes
performance to get stuck at the lowest ratio.
The scaling algorithm used for KNL is performance-based, but it still
looks at the CPU load to set the scaled busy factor to 0 when the
load is less than 1 percent. In this case, since the computed load
is 1024x smaller than it should be, the scaled busy factor will
always be 0, irrespective of CPU business.
This needs a fix similar to the turbostat one in commit b2b34dfe4d
(tools/power turbostat: KNL workaround for %Busy and Avg_MHz).
For this reason, add one more callback to processor-specific
callbacks to specify an MPERF multiplier represented by a number of
bit positions to shift the value of that register to the left to
copmensate for its rate difference with respect to the TSC. This
shift value is used during CPU busy calculations.

When the minimum performance limit percentage is set to the power-up
default, it is possible that minimum performance ratio is off by one.
In the set_policy() callback the minimum ratio is calculated by
applying global.min_perf_pct to turbo_ratio and rounding up, but the
power-up default global.min_perf_pct is already rounded up to the
next percent in min_perf_pct_min(). That results in two round up
operations, so for the default min_perf_pct one of them is not
required.
It is better to remove rounding up in min_perf_pct_min() as this
matches the displayed min_perf_pct prior to commit c5a2ee7dde
(cpufreq: intel_pstate: Active mode P-state limits rework) in 4.12.
For example on a platform with max turbo ratio of 37 and minimum
ratio of 10, the min_perf_pct resulted in 28 with the above commit.
Before this commit it was 27 and it will be the same after this
change.

When the governor is set to "performance", intel_pstate does not
need the scheduler hook for doing any calculations. Under these
conditions, its only purpose is to continue to maintain
cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq.
The cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq sysfs attribute is now provided by
shared x86 cpufreq code on modern x86 systems, including
all systems supported by the intel_pstate driver.
So in "performance" governor mode, the scheduler hook can be skipped.
This applies to both in Software and Hardware P-state control modes.

In the current model the max/min perf limits are a fraction of current
user space limits to the allowed max_freq or 100% for global limits.
This results in wrong ratio limits calculation because of rounding
issues for some user space limits.
Initially we tried to solve this issue by issue by having more shift
bits to increase precision. Still there are isolated cases where we still
have error.
This can be avoided by using ratios all together. Since the way we get
cpuinfo.max_freq is by multiplying scaling factor to max ratio, we can
easily keep the max/min ratios in terms of ratios and not fractions.
For example:
if the max ratio = 36
cpuinfo.max_freq = 36 * 100000 = 3600000
Suppose user space sets a limit of 1200000, then we can calculate
max ratio limit as
= 36 * 1200000 / 3600000
= 12
This will be correct for any user limits.
The other advantage is that, we don't need to do any calculation in the
fast path as ratio limit is already calculated via set_policy() callback.

If that assumption doesn't hold, it leads to an early crash on boot

Some computations in intel_pstate_get_min_max() are not necessary
and one of its two callers doesn't even use the full result.
First off, the fixed-point value of cpu->max_perf represents a
non-negative number between 0 and 1 inclusive and cpu->min_perf
cannot be greater than cpu->max_perf. It is not necessary to check
those conditions every time the numbers in question are used.
Moreover, since intel_pstate_max_within_limits() only needs the
upper boundary, it doesn't make sense to compute the lower one in
there and returning min and max from intel_pstate_get_min_max()
via pointers doesn't look particularly nice.
For the above reasons, drop intel_pstate_get_min_max(), add a helper
to get the base P-state for min/max computations and carry out them
directly in the previous callers of intel_pstate_get_min_max().
