In the passive mode the cpu_frequency trace event is already
triggered by the cpufreq core or by scaling governors, so
intel_pstate should not trigger it once again for the same
P-state updates.
In addition to that, the frequency returned by
intel_cpufreq_fast_switch() and passed via freqs.new from
intel_cpufreq_target() to cpufreq_freq_transition_end() should
reflect the P-state actually set, so make that happen.

The intel_pstate_update_perf_limits() called from
intel_cpufreq_verify_policy() may cause global P-state limits
to change which is generally confusing and unnecessary.
In the passive mode the global limits are only applied to the
frequency selected by the scaling governor (they are not taken
into account by governors when making decisions anyway), so making
them follow the per-policy limits serves no purpose and may go
against user expectations (as it generally causes the global
attributes in sysfs to change even though they have not been
written to in some cases).
Fix that by dropping the intel_pstate_update_perf_limits()
invocation from intel_cpufreq_verify_policy() (which also
reduces the code size by a few lines).
This change does not affect the per-CPU limits case, because those
limits allow any P-state to be set by default in the passive mode
and it removes the only piece of code updating them in that mode,
so the per-policy settings will be the only ones taken into account
in that case as expected.

Using performance_limits in the passive mode doesn't make
sense, because in that mode the global limits are applied to the
frequency selected by the scaling governor.
The maximum and minimum P-state limits in performance_limits are both
set to 100 percent which will put all CPUs into the turbo range
regardless of what governor is used and what frequencies are
selected by it (that is particularly undesirable on CPUs with the
generic powersave governor attached).
For this reason, make intel_pstate_register_driver() always point
limits to powersave_limits in the passive mode.

Pull sched.h split-up from Ingo Molnar:
"The point of these changes is to significantly reduce the
<linux/sched.h> header footprint, to speed up the kernel build and to
have a cleaner header structure.
After these changes the new <linux/sched.h>'s typical preprocessed
size goes down from a previous ~0.68 MB (~22K lines) to ~0.45 MB (~15K
lines), which is around 40% faster to build on typical configs.
Not much changed from the last version (-v2) posted three weeks ago: I
eliminated quirks, backmerged fixes plus I rebased it to an upstream
SHA1 from yesterday that includes most changes queued up in -next plus
all sched.h changes that were pending from Andrew.
I've re-tested the series both on x86 and on cross-arch defconfigs,
and did a bisectability test at a number of random points.
I tried to test as many build configurations as possible, but some
build breakage is probably still left - but it should be mostly
limited to architectures that have no cross-compiler binaries
available on kernel.org, and non-default configurations"

There is a problem with intel_pstate operation mode switching
introduced by commit fb1fe1041c (cpufreq: intel_pstate: Operation
mode control from sysfs), because the global sysfs limits are
preserved across operation modes while per-policy limits are
reinitialized from scratch on a mode switch and both sets of limits
may get out of sync this way.
Fix that by always reinitializing the global limits upon the
registration of the driver.

Some Kabylake desktop processors may not reach max turbo when running in
HWP mode, even if running under sustained 100% utilization.
This occurs when the HWP.EPP (Energy Performance Preference) is set to
"balance_power" (0x80) -- the default on most systems.
It occurs because the platform BIOS may erroneously enable an
energy-efficiency setting -- MSR_IA32_POWER_CTL BIT-EE, which is not
recommended to be enabled on this SKU.
On the failing systems, this BIOS issue was not discovered when the
desktop motherboard was tested with Windows, because the BIOS also
neglects to provide the ACPI/CPPC table, that Windows requires to enable
HWP, and so Windows runs in legacy P-state mode, where this setting has
no effect.
Linux' intel_pstate driver does not require ACPI/CPPC to enable HWP, and
so it runs in HWP mode, exposing this incorrect BIOS configuration.
There are several ways to address this problem.
First, Linux can also run in legacy P-state mode on this system.
As intel_pstate is how Linux enables HWP, booting with
"intel_pstate=disable"
will run in acpi-cpufreq/ondemand legacy p-state mode.
Or second, the "performance" governor can be used with intel_pstate,
which will modify HWP.EPP to 0.
Or third, starting in 4.10, the
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy*/energy_performance_preference
attribute in can be updated from "balance_power" to "performance".
Or fourth, apply this patch, which fixes the erroneous setting of
MSR_IA32_POWER_CTL BIT_EE on this model, allowing the default
configuration to function as designed.

When turbo is not disabled by BIOS, but user disabled from intel P-State
sysfs and changes max/min using cpufreq sysfs, the resultant frequency
is lower than what user requested.
The reason for this, when the perf limits are calculated in set_policy()
callback, they are with reference to max cpu frequency (turbo frequency
), but when enforced in the intel_pstate_get_min_max() they are with
reference to max available performance as documented in the intel_pstate
documentation (in this case max non turbo P-State).
This needs similar change as done in intel_cpufreq_verify_policy() for
passive mode. Set policy->cpuinfo.max_freq based on the turbo status.

Make it possible to change the operation mode of intel_pstate with
the help of a new sysfs attribute called "status".
There are three possible configurations that can be selected using
this attribute:
"off" - The driver is not in use at this time.
"active" - The driver works as a P-state governor (default).
"passive" - The driver works as a regular cpufreq one and collaborates
with the generic cpufreq governors (it sets P-states as
requested by those governors). [This is the same mode
the driver can be started in by passing intel_pstate=passive
in the kernel command line.]
The current setting is returned by reads from this attribute. Writing
one of the above strings to it changes the operation mode as indicated
by that string, if possible.
If HW-managed P-states (HWP) feature is enabled, it is not possible
to change the driver's operation mode and attempts to write to this
attribute will fail.

A side effect of keeping intel_pstate sysfs limits in sync with cpufreq
is that the now sysfs limits can't enforced under performance policy.
For example, if the max_perf_pct is changed from 100 to 80, this will call
intel_pstate_set_policy(), which will change the max_perf to 100 again for
performance policy. Same issue happens, when no_turbo is set.
This change calculates max and min frequency using sysfs performance
limits in intel_pstate_verify_policy() and adjusts policy limits by
calling cpufreq_verify_within_limits().
Also, it causes the setting of performance limits to be skipped if
no_turbo is set.

This also fixes the problem that setting the "no_turbo" global

It is possible to provide hints to the HWP algorithms in the processor
to be more performance centric to more energy centric. These hints are
provided by using HWP energy performance preference (EPP) or energy
performance bias (EPB) settings.
The scope of these settings is per logical processor, which means that
each of the logical processors in the package can be programmed with a
different value.
This change provides cpufreq sysfs interface to provide hint. For each
policy, two additional attributes will be available to check and provide
hint. These attributes will only be present when the intel_pstate driver
is using HWP mode.
These attributes are:
- energy_performance_available_preferences
- energy_performance_preference
To get list of supported hints:
$ cat energy_performance_available_preferences
default performance balance_performance balance_power power
The current preference can be read or changed via cpufreq sysfs
attribute "energy_performance_preference". Reading from this attribute
will display current effective setting changed via any method. User can
write any of the valid preference string to this attribute. User can
always restore to power-on default by writing "default".
Implementation
Since these hints can be provided by direct MSR write or using some tools
like x86_energy_perf_policy, the driver internally doesn't maintain any
state. The user operation will result in direct read/write of MSR: 0x774
(HWP_REQUEST_MSR). Also driver use read modify write to update other
fields in this MSR.
Summary of changes:
- struct cpudata field epp_saved is renamed to epp_powersave, as this
stores the value to restore once policy is switched from performance
to powersave to restore original powersave EPP value.
- A new struct cpudata field epp_saved is used to store the raw MSR
EPP/EPB value when a CPU goes offline or on suspend and restore on
online/resume. This ensures that EPP value is restored to correct
value irrespective of the means used to set.
- EPP/EPB value ranges are fixed for each preference, which can be
set for the cpufreq sysfs, so user request is mapped to/from this
range.
- New attributes are only added when HWP is present.
- Since EPP value of 0 is valid the fields are initialized to
-EINVAL when not valid. The field epp_default is read only once
after powerup to avoid reading on subsequent CPU online operation
- New suspend callback to store epp on suspend operation
- Don't invalidate old epp_saved field on resume and online as now
we can restore last epp value on suspend and this field can still
have old EPP value sampled during switch to performance from
powersave.
- While here optimized setting of cpu_data->epp_powersave = epp in
intel_pstate_hwp_set() as this was done in both true and false
paths.
- epp/epb set function returns error to caller on failure to pass
on to user space for display.

The addition of the generic governor support marked the

Even with round up of limits->min_perf and limits->max_perf, in some
cases resultant performance is 100 MHz less than the desired.
For example when the maximum frequency is 3.50 GHz, setting
scaling_min_frequency to 2.3 GHz always results in 2.2 GHz minimum.
Currently the fixed floating point operation uses 8 bit precision for
calculating limits->min_perf and limits->max_perf. For some operations
in this driver the 14 bit precision is used. Using the 14 bit precision
also for calculating limits->min_perf and limits->max_perf, addresses
this issue.

In some use cases, user wants to enforce a minimum performance limit on
CPUs. But because of simple division the resultant performance is 100 MHz
less than the desired in some cases.
For example when the maximum frequency is 3.50 GHz, setting
scaling_min_frequency to 1.6 GHz always results in 1.5 GHz minimum. With
simple round up, the frequency can be set to 1.6 GHz to minimum in this
case. This round up is already done to max_policy_pct and max_perf, so do
the same for min_policy_pct and min_perf.

There may be reasons to use generic cpufreq governors (eg. schedutil)
on Intel platforms instead of the intel_pstate driver's internal
governor. However, that currently can only be done by disabling
intel_pstate altogether and using the acpi-cpufreq driver instead
of it, which is subject to limitations.
First of all, acpi-cpufreq only works on systems where the _PSS
object is present in the ACPI tables for all logical CPUs. Second,
on those systems acpi-cpufreq will only use frequencies listed by
_PSS which may be suboptimal. In particular, by convention, the
whole turbo range is represented in _PSS as a single P-state and
the frequency assigned to it is greater by 1 MHz than the greatest
non-turbo frequency listed by _PSS. That may confuse governors to
use turbo frequencies less frequently which may lead to suboptimal
performance.
For this reason, make it possible to use the intel_pstate driver
with generic cpufreq governors as a "normal" cpufreq driver. That
mode is enforced by adding intel_pstate=passive to the kernel
command line and cannot be disabled at run time. In that mode,
intel_pstate provides a cpufreq driver interface including
the ->target() and ->fast_switch() callbacks and is listed in
scaling_driver as "intel_cpufreq".

Currently, intel_pstate is unable to control P-states on my
IvyBridge-based Acer Aspire S5, because they are controlled by SMM
on that machine by default and it is necessary to request OS control
of P-states from it via the SMI Command register exposed in the ACPI
FADT. intel_pstate doesn't do that now, but acpi-cpufreq and other
cpufreq drivers for x86 platforms do.
Address this problem by making intel_pstate use the ACPI-defined
mechanism as well. However, intel_pstate is not modular and it
doesn't need the module refcount tricks played by
acpi_processor_notify_smm(), so export the core of this function
to it as acpi_processor_pstate_control() and make it call that.
[The changes in processor_perflib.c related to this should not
make any functional difference for the acpi_processor_notify_smm()
users].
To be safe, only call acpi_processor_notify_smm() from intel_pstate
if ACPI _PPC support is enabled in it.

When policy->max and policy->min are same, in some cases they don't
result in the same frequency cap. The max_policy_pct is rounded up but
not min_perf_pct. So even when they are same, results in different
percentage or maximum and minimum.
Since minimum is a conservative value for power, a lower value without
rounding is better in most of the cases, unless user wants
policy->max = policy->min.
This change uses use the same policy percentage when policy->max and

Intel P-State offers two interface to set performance limits:
- Intel P-State sysfs
/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/max_perf_pct
/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/min_perf_pct
- cpufreq
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
In the current implementation both of the above methods, change limits
to every CPU in the system. Moreover the limits placed using cpufreq
policy interface also presented in the Intel P-State sysfs via modified
max_perf_pct and min_per_pct during sysfs reads. This allows to check
percent of reduced/increased performance, irrespective of method used to
limit.
There are some new generations of processors, where it is possible to
have limits placed on individual CPU cores. Using cpufreq interface it
is possible to set limits on each CPU. But the current processing will
use last limits placed on all CPUs. So the per core limit feature of
CPUs can't be used.
This change brings in capability to set P-States limits for each CPU,
with some limitations. In this case what should be the read of
max_perf_pct and min_perf_pct? It can be most restrictive limits placed
on any CPU or max possible performance on any given CPU on which no
limits are placed. In either case someone will have issue.
So the consensus is, we can't have both sysfs controls present when user
wants to use limit per core limits.
- By default per-core-control feature is not enabled. So no one will
notice any difference.
- The way to enable is by kernel command line
intel_pstate=per_cpu_perf_limits
- When the per-core-controls are enabled there is no display of for both
read and write on
/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/max_perf_pct
/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/min_perf_pct
- User can change limits using
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor
- User can still observe turbo percent and number of P-States from
/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/turbo_pct
/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/num_pstates
- User can read write system wide turbo status
/sys/devices/system/cpu/no_turbo
While changing this BUG_ON is changed to WARN_ON, as they are not fatal
errors for the system.

The only times at which intel_pstate checks the policy set for
a given CPU is the initialization of that CPU and updates of its
policy settings from cpufreq when intel_pstate_set_policy() is
invoked.
That is insufficient, however, because intel_pstate uses the same
P-state selection function for all CPUs regardless of the policy
setting for each of them and the P-state limits are shared between
them. Thus if the policy is set to "performance" for a particular
CPU, it may not behave as expected if the cpufreq settings are
changed subsequently for another CPU.
That can be easily demonstrated by writing "performance" to
scaling_governor for all CPUs and then switching it to "powersave"
for one of them in which case all of the CPUs will behave as though
their scaling_governor were all "powersave" (even though the policy
still appears to be "performance" for the remaining CPUs).
Fix this problem by modifying intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate() to
always set the P-state to the maximum allowed by the current limits
for all CPUs whose policy is set to "performance".
Note that it still is recommended to always change the policy setting
in the same way for all CPUs even with this fix applied to avoid
confusion.

After commit a4675fbc4a (cpufreq: intel_pstate: Replace timers with
utilization update callbacks) the cpufreq governor callbacks may not
be invoked on NOHZ_FULL CPUs and, in particular, switching to the
"performance" policy via sysfs may not have any effect on them. That
is a problem, because it usually is desirable to squeeze the last
bit of performance out of those CPUs, so work around it by setting
the maximum P-state (within the limits) in intel_pstate_set_policy()
upfront when the policy is CPUFREQ_POLICY_PERFORMANCE.

The PID algorithm used by the intel_pstate driver tends to drive

setpoint, which is undesirable, so replace it with a modified
"proportional" algorithm on Atom.
The new algorithm will set the new P-state to be 1.25 times the
available maximum times the (frequency-invariant) utilization during
the previous sampling period except when the target P-state computed
this way is lower than the average P-state during the previous
sampling period. In the latter case, it will increase the target by
50% of the difference between it and the average P-state to prevent
performance from dropping down too fast in some cases.

This is a requirement that MSR MSR_PM_ENABLE must be set to 0x01 before
reading MSR_HWP_CAPABILITIES on a given CPU. If cpufreq init() is
scheduled on a CPU which is not same as policy->cpu or migrates to a
different CPU before calling msr read for MSR_HWP_CAPABILITIES, it
is possible that MSR_PM_ENABLE was not to set to 0x01 on that CPU.
This will cause GP fault. So like other places in this path
rdmsrl_on_cpu should be used instead of rdmsrl.
Moreover the scope of MSR_HWP_CAPABILITIES is on per thread basis, so it
should be read from the same CPU, for which MSR MSR_HWP_REQUEST is
getting set.

It is useful to know the reason why cpufreq_update_util() has just
been called and that can be passed as flags to cpufreq_update_util()
and to the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data. However,
doing that in addition to passing the util and max arguments they
already take would be clumsy, so avoid it.
Instead, use the observation that the schedutil governor is part
of the scheduler proper, so it can access scheduler data directly.
This allows the util and max arguments of cpufreq_update_util()
and the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data to be replaced
with a flags one, but schedutil has to be modified to follow.
Thus make the schedutil governor obtain the CFS utilization
information from the scheduler and use the "RT" and "DL" flags
instead of the special utilization value of ULONG_MAX to track
updates from the RT and DL sched classes. Make it non-modular
too to avoid having to export scheduler variables to modules at
large.

intel_pstate_set_policy() is invoked by the cpufreq core during
driver initialization, on changes of policy attributes (minimim and
maximum frequency, for example) via sysfs and via CPU notifications
from the platform firmware. On some platforms the latter may occur
relatively often.
Commit bb6ab52f2b (intel_pstate: Do not set utilization update hook
too early) made intel_pstate_set_policy() clear the CPU's utilization
update hook before updating the policy attributes for it (and set the
hook again after doind that), but that involves invoking
synchronize_sched() and adds overhead to the CPU notifications
mentioned above and to the sched-RCU handling in general.
That extra overhead is arguably not necessary, because updating
policy attributes when the CPU's utilization update hook is active
should not lead to any adverse effects, so drop the clearing of
the hook from intel_pstate_set_policy() and make it check if
the hook has been set already when attempting to set it.

The maximum turbo P-State used by the intel_pstate driver may be
limited by ACPI _PSS table entry 0. After commit 9522a2ff9c
(cpufreq: intel_pstate: Enforce _PPC limits), the maximum performance
on servers will be capped by the _PSS table entry 0 by default.
Even though that is formally correct, it may lead to preformance
regressions in some cases. Namely, if the _PSS table entry 0 is
not the maximum turbo P-State, performance measured after commit
9522a2ff9c will not match the performance measured before that
commit on the same system.
For this reason, modify the code to always use the maximum turbo
frequency as the one that corresponds to _PSS table entry 0 if turbo
is enabled in the BIOS. This way, the performance levels from
before commit 9522a2ff9c will be restored on the affected systems.

When turbo is disabled, the ->set_policy() interface is broken.
For example, when turbo is disabled and cpuinfo.max = 2900000 (full
max turbo frequency), setting the limits results in frequency less
than the requested one:
Set 1000000 KHz results in 0700000 KHz
Set 1500000 KHz results in 1100000 KHz
Set 2000000 KHz results in 1500000 KHz
This is because the limits->max_perf fraction is calculated using
the max turbo frequency as the reference, but when the max P-State is
capped in intel_pstate_get_min_max(), the reference is not the max
turbo P-State. This results in reducing max P-State.
One option is to always use max turbo as reference for calculating
limits. But this will not be correct. By definition the intel_pstate
sysfs limits, shows percentage of available performance. So when
BIOS has disabled turbo, the available performance is max non turbo.
So the max_perf_pct should still show 100%.

The core_pct_busy field of struct sample actually contains the

which is confusing.
For this reason, change the name of that field to core_avg_perf

Also notice that storing this value as percentage requires a costly
integer multiplication to be carried out in a hot path, so instead
store it as an "extended fixed point" value with more fraction bits
and update the code using it accordingly (it is better to change the
name of the field along with its meaning in one go than to make those

After commit 8fa520af50 "intel_pstate: Remove freq calculation from
intel_pstate_calc_busy()" intel_pstate_get() calls get_avg_frequency()
to compute the average frequency, which is problematic for two reasons.
First, intel_pstate_get() may be invoked before the driver reads the
CPU feedback registers for the first time and if that happens,
get_avg_frequency() will attempt to divide by zero.
Second, the get_avg_frequency() call in intel_pstate_get() is racy
with respect to intel_pstate_sample() and it may end up returning
completely meaningless values for this reason.
Moreover, after commit 7349ec0470 "intel_pstate: Move
intel_pstate_calc_busy() into get_target_pstate_use_performance()"
sample.core_pct_busy is never computed on Atom, but it is used in
intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate() in that case too.
To address those problems notice that if sample.core_pct_busy
was used in the average frequency computation carried out by
get_avg_frequency(), both the divide by zero problem and the
race with respect to intel_pstate_sample() would be avoided.
Accordingly, move the invocation of intel_pstate_calc_busy() from
get_target_pstate_use_performance() to intel_pstate_update_util(),
which also will take care of the uninitialized sample.core_pct_busy
on Atom, and modify get_avg_frequency() to use sample.core_pct_busy
as per the above.

A side effect of it is that if those settings are modified on the

To address this problem, allow cpufreq drivers that don't provide

callbacks and add a ->resume callback to intel_pstate to restore
the HWP settings on the CPUs that belong to the given policy.

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.

- When Config TDP feature is used, a changed _PPC is sent to

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.

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
after the above commit), the P-state of the CPU may be inadequate
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%.

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.

The initialization of intel_pstate for a given CPU involves populating
the fields of its struct cpudata that represent the previous sample,
but currently that is done in a problematic way.
Namely, intel_pstate_init_cpu() makes an extra call to
intel_pstate_sample() so it reads the current register values that
will be used to populate the "previous sample" record during the
next invocation of intel_pstate_sample(). However, after commit
a4675fbc4a (cpufreq: intel_pstate: Replace timers with utilization
update callbacks) that doesn't work for last_sample_time, because
the time value is passed to intel_pstate_sample() as an argument now.
Passing 0 to it from intel_pstate_init_cpu() is problematic, because
that causes cpu->last_sample_time == 0 to be visible in
get_target_pstate_use_performance() (and hence the extra
cpu->last_sample_time > 0 check in there) and effectively allows
the first invocation of intel_pstate_sample() from
intel_pstate_update_util() to happen immediately after the
initialization which may lead to a significant "turn on"
effect in the governor algorithm.
To mitigate that issue, rework the initialization to avoid the
extra intel_pstate_sample() call from intel_pstate_init_cpu().
Instead, make intel_pstate_sample() return false if it has been
called with cpu->sample.time equal to zero, which will make
intel_pstate_update_util() skip the sample in that case, and
reset cpu->sample.time from intel_pstate_set_update_util_hook()
to make the algorithm start properly every time the hook is set.

The utilization update hook in the intel_pstate driver is set too
early, as it only should be set after the policy has been fully
initialized by the core. That may cause intel_pstate_update_util()
to use incorrect data and put the CPUs into incorrect P-states as
a result.
To prevent that from happening, make intel_pstate_set_policy() set
the utilization update hook instead of intel_pstate_init_cpu() so
intel_pstate_update_util() only runs when all things have been
initialized as appropriate.

After commit a4675fbc4a (cpufreq: intel_pstate: Replace timers with
utilization update callbacks) wrmsrl_on_cpu() cannot be called in the
intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate() path as that is executed with
disabled interrupts. However, atom_set_pstate() called from there
via intel_pstate_set_pstate() uses wrmsrl_on_cpu() to update the
IA32_PERF_CTL MSR which triggers the WARN_ON_ONCE() in
smp_call_function_single().
The reason why wrmsrl_on_cpu() is used by atom_set_pstate() is
because intel_pstate_set_pstate() calling it is also invoked during
the initialization and cleanup of the driver and in those cases it is
not guaranteed to be run on the CPU that is being updated. However,
in the case when intel_pstate_set_pstate() is called by
intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate(), wrmsrl() can be used to update
the register safely. Moreover, intel_pstate_set_pstate() already
contains code that only is executed if the function is called by
intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate() and there is a special argument
passed to it because of that.
To fix the problem at hand, rearrange the code taking the above
observations into account.
First, replace the ->set() callback in struct pstate_funcs with a
->get_val() one that will return the value to be written to the
IA32_PERF_CTL MSR without updating the register.
Second, split intel_pstate_set_pstate() into two functions,
intel_pstate_update_pstate() to be called by
intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate() that will contain all of the
intel_pstate_set_pstate() code which only needs to be executed in
that case and will use wrmsrl() to update the MSR (after obtaining
the value to write to it from the ->get_val() callback), and
intel_pstate_set_min_pstate() to be invoked during the
initialization and cleanup that will set the P-state to the
minimum one and will update the MSR using wrmsrl_on_cpu().
Finally, move the code shared between intel_pstate_update_pstate()
and intel_pstate_set_min_pstate() to a new static inline function
intel_pstate_record_pstate() and make them both call it.
Of course, that unifies the handling of the IA32_PERF_CTL MSR writes
between Atom and Core.
