78347cdb89 cpufreq: governor: Reset sample delay in store_sampling_rate()
If store_sampling_rate() updates the sample delay when the ondemand
governor is in the middle of its high/low dance (OD_SUB_SAMPLE sample
type is set), the governor will still do the bottom half of the
previous sample which may take too much time.

To prevent that from happening, change store_sampling_rate() to always
reset the sample delay to 0 which also is consistent with the new
behavior of cpufreq_governor_limits().

4cccf75557 cpufreq: governor: Get rid of the ->gov_check_cpu callback
The way the ->gov_check_cpu governor callback is used by the ondemand
and conservative governors is not really straightforward.  Namely, the
governor calls dbs_check_cpu() that updates the load information for
the policy and the invokes ->gov_check_cpu() for the governor.

To get rid of that entanglement, notice that cpufreq_governor_limits()
doesn't need to call dbs_check_cpu() directly.  Instead, it can simply
reset the sample delay to 0 which will cause a sample to be taken
immediately.  The result of that is practically equivalent to calling
dbs_check_cpu() except that it will trigger a full update of governor
internal state and not just the ->gov_check_cpu() part.

Following that observation, make cpufreq_governor_limits() reset
the sample delay and turn dbs_check_cpu() into a function that will
simply evaluate the load and return the result called dbs_update().

That function can now be called by governors from the routines that
previously were pointed to by ->gov_check_cpu and those routines
can be called directly by each governor instead of dbs_check_cpu().
This way ->gov_check_cpu becomes unnecessary, so drop it.

679b8fe43a cpufreq: governor: Fix nice contribution computation in dbs_check_cpu()
The contribution of the CPU nice time to the idle time in dbs_check_cpu()
is computed in a bogus way, as the code may subtract current and previous
nice values for different CPUs.

That doesn't matter for cases when cpufreq policies are not shared,
but may lead to problems otherwise.

Fix the computation and simplify it to avoid taking unnecessary steps.

e4db2813d2 cpufreq: governor: Avoid atomic operations in hot paths
Rework the handling of work items by dbs_update_util_handler() and
dbs_work_handler() so the former (which is executed in scheduler
paths) only uses atomic operations when absolutely necessary.  That
is, when the policy is shared and dbs_update_util_handler() has
already decided that this is the time to queue up a work item.

In particular, this avoids the atomic ops entirely on platforms where
policy objects are never shared.

aded387b94 cpufreq: conservative: Update sample_delay_ns immediately
The ondemand governor already updates sample_delay_ns immediately on
updates to the sampling rate, but conservative doesn't do that.

It was left out earlier as the code was really too complex to get
that done easily.  Things are sorted out very well now, however, and
the conservative governor can be modified to follow ondemand in that
respect.

Moreover, since the code needed to implement that in the
conservative governor would be identical to the corresponding
ondemand governor's code, make that code common and change both
governors to use it.

581c214b21 cpufreq: governor: No need to manage state machine now
The cpufreq core now guarantees that policy->rwsem won't be dropped
while running the ->governor callback for the CPUFREQ_GOV_POLICY_EXIT
event and will be held acquired until the complete sequence of governor
state changes has finished.

This allows governor state machine checks to be dropped from multiple
functions in cpufreq_governor.c.

This also means that policy_dbs->policy can be initialized upfront, so
the entire initialization of struct policy_dbs can be carried out in
one place.

99522fe678 cpufreq: Remove cpufreq_governor_lock
We used to drop policy->rwsem just before calling __cpufreq_governor()
in some cases earlier and so it was possible that __cpufreq_governor()
ran concurrently via separate threads for the same policy.

In order to guarantee valid state transitions for governors,
'governor_enabled' was required to be protected using some locking
and cpufreq_governor_lock was added for that.

But now __cpufreq_governor() is always called under policy->rwsem,
and 'governor_enabled' is protected against races even without
cpufreq_governor_lock.

Get rid of the extra lock now.

49f18560f8 cpufreq: Call __cpufreq_governor() with policy->rwsem held
The cpufreq core code is not consistent with respect to invoking
__cpufreq_governor() under policy->rwsem.

Changing all code to always hold policy->rwsem around
__cpufreq_governor() invocations will allow us to remove
cpufreq_governor_lock that is used today because we can't
guarantee that __cpufreq_governor() isn't executed twice in
parallel for the same policy.

We should also ensure that policy->rwsem is held across governor
state changes.

For example, while adding a CPU to the policy in the CPU online path,
we need to stop the governor, change policy->cpus, start the governor
and then refresh its limits. The complete sequence must be guaranteed
to complete without interruptions by concurrent governor state
updates.  That can be achieved by holding policy->rwsem around those
sequences of operations.

Also note that after this patch cpufreq_driver->stop_cpu() and
->exit() will get called under policy->rwsem which wasn't the case
earlier. That shouldn't have any side effects, though.

69cee7147b cpufreq: Merge cpufreq_offline_prepare/finish routines
Commit 1aee40ac9c (cpufreq: Invoke __cpufreq_remove_dev_finish()
after releasing cpu_hotplug.lock) split the cpufreq's CPU offline
routine in two pieces, one of them to be run with CPU offline/online
locked and the other to be called later.  The reason for that split
was a possible deadlock scenario involving cpufreq sysfs attributes
and CPU offline.

However, the handling of CPU offline in cpufreq has changed since
then.  Policy sysfs attributes are never removed during CPU offline,
so there's no need to worry about accessing them during CPU offline,
because that can't lead to any deadlocks now.  Governor sysfs
attributes are still removed in __cpufreq_governor(_EXIT), but
there is a new kobject type for them now and its show/store
callbacks don't lock CPU offline/online (they don't need to do
that).

This means that the CPU offline code in cpufreq doesn't need to
be split any more, so combine cpufreq_offline_prepare() with
cpufreq_offline_finish().

c54df07184 cpufreq: governor: Create and traverse list of policy_dbs to avoid deadlock
The dbs_data_mutex lock is currently used in two places.  First,
cpufreq_governor_dbs() uses it to guarantee mutual exclusion between
invocations of governor operations from the core.  Second, it is used by
ondemand governor's update_sampling_rate() to ensure the stability of
data structures walked by it.

The second usage is quite problematic, because update_sampling_rate() is
called from a governor sysfs attribute's ->store callback and that leads
to a deadlock scenario involving cpufreq_governor_exit() which runs
under dbs_data_mutex.  Thus it is better to rework the code so
update_sampling_rate() doesn't need to acquire dbs_data_mutex.

To that end, rework update_sampling_rate() to walk a list of policy_dbs
objects supported by the dbs_data one it has been called for (instead of
walking cpu_dbs_info object for all CPUs).  The list manipulation is
protected with dbs_data->mutex which also is held around the execution
of update_sampling_rate(), it is not necessary to hold dbs_data_mutex in
that function any more.

68e80dae09 Revert "cpufreq: Drop rwsem lock around CPUFREQ_GOV_POLICY_EXIT"
Earlier, when the struct freq-attr was used to represent governor
attributes, the standard cpufreq show/store sysfs attribute callbacks
were applied to the governor tunable attributes and they always acquire
the policy->rwsem lock before carrying out the operation.  That could
have resulted in an ABBA deadlock if governor tunable attributes are
removed under policy->rwsem while one of them is being accessed
concurrently (if sysfs attributes removal wins the race, it will wait
for the access to complete with policy->rwsem held while the attribute
callback will block on policy->rwsem indefinitely).

We attempted to address this issue by dropping policy->rwsem around
governor tunable attributes removal (that is, around invocations of the
->governor callback with the event arg equal to CPUFREQ_GOV_POLICY_EXIT)
in cpufreq_set_policy(), but that opened up race conditions that had not
been possible with policy->rwsem held all the time.

The previous commit, "cpufreq: governor: New sysfs show/store callbacks
for governor tunables", fixed the original ABBA deadlock by adding new
governor specific show/store callbacks.

We don't have to drop rwsem around invocations of governor event
CPUFREQ_GOV_POLICY_EXIT anymore, and original fix can be reverted now.

c443563036 cpufreq: governor: New sysfs show/store callbacks for governor tunables
The ondemand and conservative governors use the global-attr or freq-attr
structures to represent sysfs attributes corresponding to their tunables
(which of them is actually used depends on whether or not different
policy objects can use the same governor with different tunables at the
same time and, consequently, on where those attributes are located in
sysfs).

Unfortunately, in the freq-attr case, the standard cpufreq show/store
sysfs attribute callbacks are applied to the governor tunable attributes
and they always acquire the policy->rwsem lock before carrying out the
operation.  That may lead to an ABBA deadlock if governor tunable
attributes are removed under policy->rwsem while one of them is being
accessed concurrently (if sysfs attributes removal wins the race, it
will wait for the access to complete with policy->rwsem held while the
attribute callback will block on policy->rwsem indefinitely).

We attempted to address this issue by dropping policy->rwsem around
governor tunable attributes removal (that is, around invocations of the
->governor callback with the event arg equal to CPUFREQ_GOV_POLICY_EXIT)
in cpufreq_set_policy(), but that opened up race conditions that had not
been possible with policy->rwsem held all the time.  Therefore
policy->rwsem cannot be dropped in cpufreq_set_policy() at any point,
but the deadlock situation described above must be avoided too.

To that end, use the observation that in principle governor tunables may
be represented by the same data type regardless of whether the governor
is system-wide or per-policy and introduce a new structure, struct
governor_attr, for representing them and new corresponding macros for
creating show/store sysfs callbacks for them.  Also make their parent
kobject use a new kobject type whose default show/store callbacks are
not related to the standard core cpufreq ones in any way (and they don't
acquire policy->rwsem in particular).

af92618523 cpufreq: governor: Put governor structure into common_dbs_data
For the ondemand and conservative governors (generally, governors
that use the common code in cpufreq_governor.c), there are two static
data structures representing the governor, the struct governor
structure (the interface to the cpufreq core) and the struct
common_dbs_data one (the interface to the cpufreq_governor.c code).

There's no fundamental reason why those two structures have to be
separate.  Moreover, if the struct governor one is included into
struct common_dbs_data, it will be possible to reach the latter from
the policy via its policy->governor pointer, so it won't be necessary
to pass a separate pointer to it around.  For this reason, embed
struct governor in struct common_dbs_data.

2bb8d94fb0 cpufreq: governor: Use common mutex for dbs_data protection
Every governor relying on the common code in cpufreq_governor.c
has to provide its own mutex in struct common_dbs_data.  However,
there actually is no need to have a separate mutex per governor
for this purpose, they may be using the same global mutex just
fine.  Accordingly, introduce a single common mutex for that and
drop the mutex field from struct common_dbs_data.

That at least will ensure that the mutex is always present and
initialized regardless of what the particular governors do.

Another benefit is that the common code does not need a pointer to
a governor-related structure to get to the mutex which sometimes
helps.

Finally, it makes the code generally easier to follow.

9be4fd2c77 cpufreq: governor: Replace timers with utilization update callbacks
Instead of using a per-CPU deferrable timer for queuing up governor
work items, register a utilization update callback that will be
invoked from the scheduler on utilization changes.

The sampling rate is still the same as what was used for the
deferrable timers and the added irq_work overhead should be offset by
the eliminated timers overhead, so in theory the functional impact of
this patch should not be significant.

Instead of using a per-CPU deferrable timer for utilization sampling

The sampling rate is still the same as what was used for the deferrable

34e2c555f3 cpufreq: Add mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks
Introduce a mechanism by which parts of the cpufreq subsystem
("setpolicy" drivers or the core) can register callbacks to be
executed from cpufreq_update_util() which is invoked by the
scheduler's update_load_avg() on CPU utilization changes.

This allows the "setpolicy" drivers to dispense with their timers
and do all of the computations they need and frequency/voltage
adjustments in the update_load_avg() code path, among other things.

The update_load_avg() changes were suggested by Peter Zijlstra.

matter) is really nasty, so replace it with __weak functions and

b331bc20d9 cpufreq: cpufreq-dt: avoid uninitialized variable warnings:
gcc warns quite a bit about values returned from allocate_resources()
in cpufreq-dt.c:

cpufreq-dt.c: In function 'cpufreq_init':
cpufreq-dt.c:327:6: error: 'cpu_dev' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]
cpufreq-dt.c:197:17: note: 'cpu_dev' was declared here
cpufreq-dt.c:376:2: error: 'cpu_clk' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Werror=maybe-uninitialized]

cpufreq-dt.c:447:14: note: 'cpu_clk' was declared here

The problem is that it's slightly hard for gcc to follow return
codes across PTR_ERR() calls.

This patch uses explicit assignments to the "ret" variable to make
it easier for gcc to verify that the code is actually correct,
without the need to add a bogus initialization.

fb2a24a1c6 cpufreq: pxa2xx: fix pxa_cpufreq_change_voltage prototype
There are two definitions of pxa_cpufreq_change_voltage, with slightly
different prototypes after one of them had its argument marked 'const'.
Now the other one (for !CONFIG_REGULATOR) produces a harmless warning:

drivers/cpufreq/pxa2xx-cpufreq.c: In function 'pxa_set_target':
drivers/cpufreq/pxa2xx-cpufreq.c:291:36: warning: passing argument 1 of 'pxa_cpufreq_change_voltage' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]
   ret = pxa_cpufreq_change_voltage(&pxa_freq_settings[idx]);
                                    ^
drivers/cpufreq/pxa2xx-cpufreq.c:205:12: note: expected 'struct pxa_freqs *' but argument is of type 'const struct pxa_freqs *'
 static int pxa_cpufreq_change_voltage(struct pxa_freqs *pxa_freq)
            ^

This changes the prototype in the same way as the other, which
avoids the warning.

e4b133cc4b cpufreq: Fix NULL reference crash while accessing policy->governor_data
There is a race discovered by Juri, where we are able to:
- create and read a sysfs file before policy->governor_data is being set
  to a non NULL value.
  OR
- set policy->governor_data to NULL, and reading a file before being
  destroyed.

And so such a crash is reported:

0df35026c6 cpufreq: governor: Fix negative idle_time when configured with CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC
It is reported that, with CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC=y cpu stays at the
lowest frequency even if the usage goes to 100%, neither ondemand
nor conservative governor works, however performance and
userspace work as expected. If set with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y,
everything goes well.

This problem is caused by improper calculation of the idle_time
when the load is extremely high(near 100%). Firstly, cpufreq_governor
uses get_cpu_idle_time to get the total idle time for specific cpu, then:

1.If the system is configured with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL, the idle time is
  returned by ktime_get, which is always increasing, it's OK.
2.However, if the system is configured with CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC,
  get_cpu_idle_time might not guarantee to be always increasing,
  because it will leverage get_cpu_idle_time_jiffy to calculate the
  idle_time, consider the following scenario:

At T1:
idle_tick_1 = total_tick_1 - user_tick_1

sample period(80ms)...

At T2: ( T2 = T1 + 80ms):
idle_tick_2 = total_tick_2 - user_tick_2

Currently the algorithm is using (idle_tick_2 - idle_tick_1) to
get the delta idle_time during the past sample period, however
it CAN NOT guarantee that idle_tick_2 >= idle_tick_1, especially
when cpu load is high.
(Yes, total_tick_2 >= total_tick_1, and user_tick_2 >= user_tick_1,
but how about idle_tick_2 and idle_tick_1? No guarantee.)
So governor might get a negative value of idle_time during the past
sample period, which might mislead the system that the idle time is
very big(converted to unsigned int), and the busy time is nearly zero,
which causes the governor to always choose the lowest cpufreq,
then cause this problem.

In theory there are two solutions:

1.The logic should not rely on the idle tick during every sample period,
  but be based on the busy tick directly, as this is how 'top' is
  implemented.

2.Or the logic must make sure that the idle_time is strictly increasing
  during each sample period, then there would be no negative idle_time
  anymore. This solution requires minimum modification to current code
  and this patch uses method 2.

7a6c79f2fe cpufreq: Simplify core code related to boost support
Notice that the boost_supported field in struct cpufreq_driver is
redundant, because the driver's ->set_boost callback may be left
unset if "boost" is not supported.  Moreover, the only driver
populating the ->set_boost callback is acpi_cpufreq, so make it
avoid populating that callback if "boost" is not supported, rework
the core to check ->set_boost instead of boost_supported to
verify "boost" support and drop boost_supported which isn't
used any more.

17135782b8 cpufreq: acpi-cpufreq: Simplify boost-related code
The store_boost() routine is only used by store_cpb(), so move
the code from it directly to that function and rename _store_boost()
to set_boost() to make its name reflect the name of the driver
callback pointing to it.

41669da030 cpufreq: Make cpufreq_boost_supported() static
cpufreq_boost_supported() is not used outside of cpufreq.c, so make
it static.

While at it, refactor it as a one-liner (which it really is).

a5810b4f07 blackfin-cpufreq: Change return type of cpu_set_cclk() to that of clk_set_rate()
The return type "unsigned long" was used by the cpu_set_cclk() function
while the type "int" is provided by the clk_set_rate() function.
Let us make this usage consistent.

This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.
