323ee64aa1 powercap/rapl: track lead cpu per package
RAPL driver operates on MSRs that are under package/socket
scope instead of core scope. However, the current code does not
keep track of which CPUs are available on each package for MSR
access. Therefore it has to search for an active CPU on a given
package each time.

This patch optimizes the package level operations by tracking a
per package lead CPU during initialization and CPU hotplug. The
runtime search for active CPU is avoided.

309557f558 powercap/rapl: add package reference per domain
This patch adds to each rapl domain a reference of the package
it belongs to. At runtime, we can then avoid searching the package
data for each access. It simplifies the domain level operations
which depend on package level information.

79a21dbfae powercap / RAPL: fix BIOS lock check
Intel RAPL initialized on several systems where the BIOS lock bit (msr
0x610, bit 63) was set.  This occured because the return value of
rapl_read_data_raw() was being checked, rather than the value of the variable
passed in, locked.

This patch properly implments the rapl_read_data_raw() call to check the
variable locked, and now the Intel RAPL driver outputs the warning:

	intel_rapl: RAPL package 0 domain package locked by BIOS

and does not initialize for the package.

frequency for different variants of Atom SoCs
appropriately and ensures configuration of floor
frequency is not done from driver for these

d474a4d365 powercap / RAPL: handle domains with different energy units
The current driver assumes all RAPL domains within a CPU package
have the same energy unit. This is no longer true for HSW server
CPUs since DRAM domain has is own fixed energy unit which can be
different than the package energy unit enumerated by package
power MSR. In fact, the default HSW EP package power unit is 61uJ
whereas DRAM domain unit is 15.3uJ. The result is that DRAM power
consumption is counted 4x more than real power reported by energy
counters, similarly for max_energy_range_uj of DRAM domain.

This patch adds domain specific energy unit per cpu type, it allows
domain energy unit to override package energy unit if non zero.

Please see this document for details.

Therefore, we relax the sanity check by only checking availability of the

467a9e1633 CPU hotplug notifiers registration fixes for 3.15-rc1
The purpose of this single series of commits from Srivatsa S Bhat (with

 CPU hotplug notifiers is to provide a way to register them that will not
 lead to deadlocks with CPU online/offline operations as described in the
 changelog of commit 93ae4f978c (CPU hotplug: Provide lockless versions
 of callback registration functions).
 
 The first three commits in the series introduce the API and document it
 and the rest simply goes through the users of CPU hotplug notifiers and
 converts them to using the new method.

009f225ef0 powercap, intel-rapl: Fix CPU hotplug callback registration
Subsystems that want to register CPU hotplug callbacks, as well as perform
initialization for the CPUs that are already online, often do it as shown
below:

	get_online_cpus();

	for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
		init_cpu(cpu);

	register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);

	put_online_cpus();

This is wrong, since it is prone to ABBA deadlocks involving the
cpu_add_remove_lock and the cpu_hotplug.lock (when running concurrently
with CPU hotplug operations).

Instead, the correct and race-free way of performing the callback
registration is:

	cpu_notifier_register_begin();

	for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
		init_cpu(cpu);

	/* Note the use of the double underscored version of the API */
	__register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);

	cpu_notifier_register_done();

Fix the intel-rapl code in the powercap driver by using this latter form
of callback registration. But retain the calls to get/put_online_cpus(),
since they also protect the function rapl_cleanup_data(). By nesting
get/put_online_cpus() *inside* cpu_notifier_register_begin/done(), we avoid
the ABBA deadlock possibility mentioned above.

2d281d8196 PowerCap: Introduce Intel RAPL power capping driver
The Intel Running Average Power Limit (RAPL) technology provides platform
software with the ability to monitor, control, and get notifications on
power usage.

This feature is present in all Sandy Bridge and later Intel processors.
Newer models allow more fine grained controls to be applied.  In RAPL,
power control is divided into domains, which include package, DRAM
controller, CPU core (Power Plane 0), graphics uncore (power plane 1), etc.

The purpose of this driver is to expose the RAPL settings to userspace.
Overall, RAPL fits in the new powercap class driver in that platform
level power capping controls are exposed via this generic interface.

This driver is based on an earlier patch from Zhang Rui.

However, while the previous work was mainly focused on thermal monitoring
the focus here is on the usability from user space perspective.
