Lothar Waßmann dca0261393 [CPUFREQ] fix double unlock of cpu_policy_rwsem in drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c
In drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c the function cpufreq_add_dev() takes the
error exit 'err_out_unregister' from different places once with the
'cpu_policy_rwsem' lock held, once with the lock released:
|		if (ret)
|			goto err_out_unregister;
|	}
|
|	policy->governor = NULL; /* to assure that the starting sequence is
|				  * run in cpufreq_set_policy */
|
|	/* set default policy */
|	ret = __cpufreq_set_policy(policy, &new_policy);
|	policy->user_policy.policy = policy->policy;
|	policy->user_policy.governor = policy->governor;
|
|	unlock_policy_rwsem_write(cpu);
|
|	if (ret) {
|		dprintk("setting policy failed\n");
|		goto err_out_unregister;
|	}

This leads to the following error message in case of a failing
__cpufreq_set_policy() call:

Darrick J. Wong e8628dd06d [CPUFREQ] expose cpufreq coordination requirements regardless of coordination mechanism
Currently, affected_cpus shows which CPUs need to have their frequency
coordinated in software.  When hardware coordination is in use, the contents
of this file appear the same as when no coordination is required.  This can
lead to some confusion among user-space programs, for example, that do not
know that extra coordination is required to force a CPU core to a particular
speed to control power consumption.

To fix this, create a "related_cpus" attribute that always displays the
coordination map regardless of whatever coordination strategy the cpufreq
driver uses (sw or hw).  If the cpufreq driver does not provide a value, fall
back to policy->cpus.

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0xfe68af): Section mismatch in reference from the function cpufreq_register_driver() to the variable .cpuinit.data:cpufreq_cpu_notifier
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.exit.text+0xc4fa): Section mismatch in reference from the function cpufreq_stats_exit() to the variable .cpuinit.data:cpufreq_stat_cpu_notifier

The warnings were casued by references to unregister_hotcpu_notifier()
from normal functions or exit functions.
This is flagged by modpost as a potential error because
it does not know that for the non HOTPLUG_CPU
scenario the unregister_hotcpu_notifier() is a nop.

Venki Pallipadi 9e76988e93 [CPUFREQ] Eliminate cpufreq_userspace scaling_setspeed deadlock
Eliminate cpufreq_userspace scaling_setspeed deadlock.

Luming Yu recently uncovered yet another cpufreq related deadlock.
One thread that continuously switches the governors and the other thread that
repeatedly cats the contents of cpufreq directory causes both these threads to
go into a deadlock.

Detailed examination of the deadlock showed the exact flow before the deadlock
as:

Thread 1			Thread 2
________			________
				cats files under /sys/devices/.../cpufreq/
Set governor to userspace
  Adds a new sysfs entry for
  scaling_setspeed
				cats files under /sys/devices/.../cpufreq/

Set governor to performance
  Holds cpufreq_rw_sem in write
  mode
  Sends a STOP notify to
  userspace governor
				cat /sys/devices/.../cpufreq/scaling_setspeed
				  Gets a handle on the above sysfs entry with
				  sysfs_get_active
				  Blocks while trying to get cpufreq_rw_sem
				  in read mode
  Remove a sysfs entry for
  scaling_setspeed
    Blocks on sysfs_deactivate
    while waiting for earlier
    get_active (on other thread)
    to drain

At this point both threads go into deadlock and any other thread that tries to
do anything with sysfs cpufreq will also block.

There seems to be no easy way to avoid this deadlock as long as
cpufreq_userspace adds/removes the sysfs entry under same kobject as cpufreq.
Below patch moves scaling_setspeed to cpufreq.c, keeping it always and calling
back the governor on read/write. This is the cleanest fix I could think of,
even though adding two callbacks in governor structure just for this seems
unnecessary.

Note that the change makes scaling_setspeed under /sys/.../cpufreq permanent
and returns <unsupported> when governor is not userspace.

Yi Yang 53391fa20c cpufreq: fix obvious condition statement error
The function __cpufreq_set_policy in file drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c
has a very obvious error:

        if (policy->min > data->min && policy->min > policy->max) {
                ret = -EINVAL;
                goto error_out;
        }

This condtion statement is wrong because it returns -EINVAL only if
policy->min is greater than policy->max (in this case,
"policy->min > data->min" is true for ever.). In fact, it should
return -EINVAL as well if policy->max is less than data->min.

The correct condition should be:

	if (policy->min > data->max || policy->max < data->min) {

The following test result testifies the above conclusion:

Johannes Weiner 6915719b36 cpufreq: Initialise default governor before use
When the cpufreq driver starts up at boot time, it calls into the default
governor which might not be initialised yet.  This hurts when the
governor's worker function relies on memory that is not yet set up by its
init function.

This migrates all governors from module_init() to fs_initcall() when being
the default, as was already done in cpufreq_performance when it was the
only possible choice.  The performance governor is always initialized early
because it might be used as fallback even when not being the default.

Fixes at least one actual oops where ondemand is the default governor and
cpufreq_governor_dbs() uses the uninitialised kondemand_wq work-queue
during boot-time.

The notifier_block is already __cpuinitdata, thereby allowing us to safely
mark the callback function as __cpuinit also, thereby saving space when

Thomas Renninger 1c2562459f [CPUFREQ] allow ondemand and conservative cpufreq governors to be used as default
Depending on the transition latency of the HW for cpufreq switches, the
ondemand or conservative governor cannot be used with certain cpufreq
drivers.  Still the ondemand should be the default governor on a wide range
of systems.  This patch allows this and lets the governor fallback to the
performance governor at cpufreq driver load time, if the driver does not
support fast enough frequency switching.

Main benefit is that on e.g.  installation or other systems without
userspace support a working dynamic cpufreq support can be achieved on most
systems by simply loading the cpufreq driver.  This is especially essential
for recent x86(_64) laptop hardware which may rely on working dynamic
cpufreq OS support.

Thomas Renninger 084f349394 [CPUFREQ] Restore previously used governor on a hot-replugged CPU
Negative side effect: needs NR_CPUs pointer array of memory in
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU case.

Still needs userspace track keeping and rewriting of governors if governors
change while a CPU is not active (always the governor at CPU remove time is
restored).

Move of policy->user_policy.governor assignment is just a minor cleanup.

Peter Oruba 91973de736 [CPUFREQ] bugfix cpufreq in combination with performance governor
There is a frequency scaling issue that I encountered with the performance
governor in combination with CPU hotplug.

In cpufreq.c CPU frequency is reduced to its minimum before the CPU gets
unregistered and set offline.  Does that have a particular reason?

Since the (k8-)governor does not monitor CPU frequency that setting also
applies then to the remaining CPU as well and lets the system run on the
lowest frequency although performance is chose as the policy.

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.

For more info regarding lifetime rule cleanup, please read the
following message.

Venki Pallipadi ea48761519 [CPUFREQ] ondemand: fix tickless accounting and software coordination bug
With tickless kernel and software coordination os P-states, ondemand
can look at wrong idle statistics. This can happen when ondemand sampling
is happening on CPU 0 and due to software coordination sampling also looks at
utilization of CPU 1. If CPU 1 is in tickless state at that moment, its idle
statistics will not be uptodate and CPU 0 thinks CPU 1 is idle for less
amount of time than it actually is.

This can be resolved by looking at all the busy times of CPUs, which is
accurate, even with tickless, and use that to determine idle time in a
round about way (total time - busy time).

Thanks to Arjan for originally reporting the ondemand bug on
Lenovo T61.

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).

Fix limited cpufreq when booted on battery

If booted on battery:
cpufreq_set_policy (evil) is invoked which calls verify_within_limits.
max_freq gets lowered and therefore users_policy.max, which
is used to restore higher freqs via update_policy later is set to the
already limited frequency -> you can never go up again, even BIOS
allows higher freqs later.
