Existing platforms, which do not support operating-points-v2, can explicitly tell the opp core that some of the CPUs share opp tables, with help of dev_pm_opp_set_sharing_cpus(). For such platforms, explicitly ask the opp core to provide list of CPUs sharing the opp table with current cpu device, before falling back to platform data. Signed-off-by:

OPP core allows a platform to mark OPP table as shared, when the platform isn't using operating-points-v2 bindings. And, so there should be a non DT way of finding out if the OPP table is shared or not. This patch adds dev_pm_opp_get_sharing_cpus(), which first tries to get OPP sharing information from the opp-table (in case it is already marked as shared), otherwise it uses the existing DT way of finding sharing information.

Some of the routines have used -ENOSYS for the cases where the functionality isn't implemented in the kernel. But ENOSYS is supposed to be used only for syscalls. Replace that with -ENOTSUPP, which specifically means that the operation isn't supported. While at it, replace exiting -EINVAL errors for similar cases to -ENOTSUPP. Signed-off-by:

The name of the prev_cpu_wall field in struct cpu_dbs_info is confusing, because it doesn't represent wall time, but the previous update time as returned by get_cpu_idle_time() (that may be the current value of jiffies_64 in some cases, for example). Moreover, the names of some related variables in dbs_update() take that confusion further. Rename all of those things to make their names reflect the purpose more accurately. While at it, drop unnecessary parens from one of the updated expressions. No functional changes. Signed-off-by:

For platforms which are controlled via remove node manager, enable _PPC by default. These platforms are mostly categorized as enterprise server or performance servers. These platforms needs to go through some certifications tests, which tests control via _PPC. The relative risk of enabling by default is low as this is is less likely that these systems have broken _PSS table. Signed-off-by:

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. ACPI _PSS table from a Broadwell laptop 2301000 2300000 2200000 2000000 1900000 1800000 1700000 1500000 1400000 1300000 1100000 1000000 900000 800000 600000 500000 The actual results by disabling config TDP so that we can get what is requested on or below 2300000Khz. scaling_max_freq Max Requested P-State Resultant scaling max ---------------------------------------- ---------------------- 2400000 18 2900000 (max turbo) 2300000 17 2300000 (max physical non turbo) 2200000 15 2100000 2100000 15 2100000 2000000 13 1900000 1900000 13 1900000 1800000 12 1800000 1700000 11 1700000 1600000 10 1600000 1500000 f 1500000 1400000 e 1400000 1300000 d 1300000 1200000 c 1200000 1100000 a 1000000 1000000 a 1000000 900000 9 900000 800000 8 800000 700000 7 700000 600000 6 600000 500000 5 500000 ------------------------------------------------------------------ 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.

Use ACPI _PPC notification to limit max P state driver will request. ACPI _PPC change notification is sent by BIOS to limit max P state in several cases: - Reduce impact of platform thermal condition - When Config TDP feature is used, a changed _PPC is sent to follow TDP change - Remote node managers in server want to control platform power via baseboard management controller (BMC) This change registers with ACPI processor performance lib so that _PPC changes are notified to cpufreq core, which in turns will result in call to .setpolicy() callback. Also the way _PSS table identifies a turbo frequency is not compatible to max turbo frequency in intel_pstate, so the very first entry in _PSS needs to be adjusted. This feature can be turned on by using kernel parameters: intel_pstate=support_acpi_ppc Signed-off-by:

The frequency transition latency from pmin to pmax is observed to be in few millisecond granurality. And it usually happens to take a performance penalty during sudden frequency rampup requests. This patch set solves this problem by using an entity called "global pstates". The global pstate is a Chip-level entity, so the global entitiy (Voltage) is managed across the cores. The local pstate is a Core-level entity, so the local entity (frequency) is managed across threads. This patch brings down global pstate at a slower rate than the local pstate. Hence by holding global pstates higher than local pstate makes the subsequent rampups faster. A per policy structure is maintained to keep track of the global and local pstate changes. The global pstate is brought down using a parabolic equation. The ramp down time to pmin is set to ~5 seconds. To make sure that the global pstates are dropped at regular interval , a timer is queued for every 2 seconds during ramp-down phase, which eventually brings the pstate down to local pstate. Iozone results show fairly consistent performance boost. YCSB on redis shows improved Max latencies in most cases. Iozone write/rewite test were made with filesizes 200704Kb and 401408Kb with different record sizes . The following table shows IOoperations/sec with and without patch.

The way cpufreq_governor_start() initializes j_cdbs->prev_load is questionable. First off, j_cdbs->prev_cpu_wall used as a denominator in the computation may be zero. The case this happens is when get_cpu_idle_time_us() returns -1 and get_cpu_idle_time_jiffy() used to return that number is called exactly at the jiffies_64 wrap time. It is rather hard to trigger that error, but it is not impossible and it will just crash the kernel then. Second, j_cdbs->prev_load is computed as the average load during the entire time since the system started and it may not reflect the load in the previous sampling period (as it is expected to). That doesn't play well with the way dbs_update() uses that value. Namely, if the update time delta (wall_time) happens do be greater than twice the sampling rate on the first invocation of it, the initial value of j_cdbs->prev_load (which may be completely off) will be returned to the caller as the current load (unless it is equal to zero and unless another CPU sharing the same policy object has a greater load value). For this reason, notice that the prev_load field of struct cpu_dbs_info is only used by dbs_update() and only in that one place, so if cpufreq_governor_start() is modified to always initialize it to 0, it will make dbs_update() always compute the actual load first time it checks the update time delta against the doubled sampling rate (after initialization) and there won't be any side effects of it. Consequently, modify cpufreq_governor_start() as described. Fixes: 18b46abd (cpufreq: governor: Be friendly towards latency-sensitive bursty workloads) Signed-off-by:

opp core allows OPPs to be explicitly marked as shared from platform code, in case of operating-point v1 bindings. Though we do everything fine in that case, we don't set the flag in the opp-table to indicate that the OPPs are shared. It works fine today as the flag isn't used anywhere else in the core, but we should be doing the right thing by marking it set. Signed-off-by:

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.
