Impact: use new cpumask API to reduce memory usage This is part of an effort to reduce structure sizes for machines configured with large NR_CPUS. cpumask_t gets replaced by cpumask_var_t, which is either struct cpumask[1] (small NR_CPUS) or struct cpumask * (large NR_CPUS).

2008-12-05[CPUFREQ] Fix on resume, now preserves user policy min/max.Mike Chan
Previously driver resume would always set the current policy min/max with the cpuinfo min/max, defined by user_policy.min/max. Resulting in a reset of policy settings when policy.min/max != cpuinfo.min/max when coming out of suspend. Now user_policy is saved as the policy instead of cpuinfo to preserve what the user actually set. Signed-off-by: Mike Chan <mike@android.com> Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com>
2008-12-05[CPUFREQ] Disable sysfs ui for p4-clockmod.Matthew Garrett
p4-clockmod has a long history of abuse. It pretends to be a CPU frequency scaling driver, even though it doesn't actually change the CPU frequency, but instead just modulates the frequency with wait-states. The biggest misconception is that when running at the lower 'frequency' p4-clockmod is saving power. This isn't the case, as workloads running slower take longer to complete, preventing the CPU from entering deep C states. However p4-clockmod does have a purpose. It can prevent overheating. Having it hooked up to the cpufreq interfaces is the wrong way to achieve cooling however. It should instead be hooked up to ACPI. This diff introduces a means for a cpufreq driver to register with the cpufreq core, but not present a sysfs interface.

2008-10-09[CPUFREQ][6/6] cpufreq: Add idle microaccounting in ondemand governorvenkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com
Use get_cpu_idle_time_us() to get micro-accounted idle information. This enables ondemand to get more accurate idle and busy timings than the jiffy based calculation. As a result, we can decrease the ondemand safety gaurd band from 80-10 to 95-3. Results in more aggressive power savings.

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).

2008-02-21cpufreq: fix kobject reference count handlingBalaji Rao
The cpufreq core should not take an extra kobject reference count for no reason, and then refuse to release it. This has been reported as keeping machines from properly powering down all the way.

2008-02-07[CPUFREQ] Eliminate cpufreq_userspace scaling_setspeed deadlockVenki Pallipadi
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.

2008-01-30cpufreq: fix obvious condition statement errorYi Yang
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: Before applying this patch: [root@yangyi-dev /]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies 2394000 1596000 [root@yangyi-dev /]# echo 1596000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq [root@yangyi-dev /]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq 1596000 [root@yangyi-dev /]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq 1596000 [root@yangyi-dev /]# echo "2000000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument [root@yangyi-dev /]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq 1596000 [root@yangyi-dev /]# echo "0" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq [root@yangyi-dev /]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq 1596000 [root@yangyi-dev /]# echo "1595000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq [root@yangyi-dev /]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq 1596000 [root@yangyi-dev /]# After applying this patch: [root@yangyi-dev /]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies 2394000 1596000 [root@yangyi-dev /]# echo 1596000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq [root@yangyi-dev /]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq 1596000 [root@yangyi-dev /]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq 1596000 [root@localhost /]# echo "2000000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument [root@localhost /]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq 1596000 [root@localhost /]# echo "0" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument [root@localhost /]# echo "1595000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument [root@localhost /]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq 1596000 [root@localhost /]# echo "1596000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq [root@localhost /]# echo "2394000" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq [root@localhost /]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq 2394000 [root@localhost /] Signed-off-by: Yi Yang <yi.y.yang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>

2008-01-17cpufreq: Initialise default governor before useJohannes Weiner
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.
