Most users of IS_ERR_VALUE() in the kernel are wrong, as they
pass an 'int' into a function that takes an 'unsigned long'
argument. This happens to work because the type is sign-extended
on 64-bit architectures before it gets converted into an
unsigned type.However, anything that passes an 'unsigned short' or 'unsigned int'
argument into IS_ERR_VALUE() is guaranteed to be broken, as are
8-bit integers and types that are wider than 'unsigned long'.Andrzej Hajda has already fixed a lot of the worst abusers that
were causing actual bugs, but it would be nice to prevent any
users that are not passing 'unsigned long' arguments.This patch changes all users of IS_ERR_VALUE() that I could find
on 32-bit ARM randconfig builds and x86 allmodconfig. For the
moment, this doesn't change the definition of IS_ERR_VALUE()
because there are probably still architecture specific users
elsewhere.Almost all the warnings I got are for files that are better off
using 'if (err)' or 'if (err < 0)'.
The only legitimate user I could find that we get a warning for
is the (32-bit only) freescale fman driver, so I did not remove
the IS_ERR_VALUE() there but changed the type to 'unsigned long'.
For 9pfs, I just worked around one user whose calling conventions
are so obscure that I did not dare change the behavior.I was using this definition for testing:
#define IS_ERR_VALUE(x) ((unsigned long*)NULL == (typeof (x)*)NULL && \
unlikely((unsigned long long)(x) >= (unsigned long long)(typeof(x))-MAX_ERRNO))which ends up making all 16-bit or wider types work correctly with
the most plausible interpretation of what IS_ERR_VALUE() was supposed
to return according to its users, but also causes a compile-time
warning for any users that do not pass an 'unsigned long' argument.I suggested this approach earlier this year, but back then we ended
up deciding to just fix the users that are obviously broken. After
the initial warning that caused me to get involved in the discussion
(fs/gfs2/dir.c) showed up again in the mainline kernel, Linus
asked me to send the whole thing again.[ Updated the 9p parts as per Al Viro - Linus ]

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The majority of changes go into the cpufreq subsystem this time.To me, quite obviously, the biggest ticket item is the new "schedutil"
governor. Interestingly enough, it's the first new cpufreq governor
since the beginning of the git era (except for some out-of-the-tree
ones).There are two main differences between it and the existing governors.
First, it uses the information provided by the scheduler directly for
making its decisions, so it doesn't have to track anything by itself.
Second, it can invoke drivers (supporting that feature) to adjust CPU
performance right away without having to spawn work items to be
executed in process context or similar. Currently, the acpi-cpufreq
driver is the only one supporting that mode of operation, but then it
is used on a large number of systems.The "schedutil" governor as included here is very simple and mostly
regarded as a foundation for future work on the integration of the
scheduler with CPU power management (in fact, there is work in
progress on top of it already). Nevertheless it works and the
preliminary results obtained with it are encouraging.There also is some consolidation of CPU frequency management for ARM
platforms that can add their machine IDs the the new stub dt-platdev
driver now and that will take care of creating the requisite platform
device for cpufreq-dt, so it is not necessary to do that in platform
code any more. Several ARM platforms are switched over to using this
generic mechanism.In addition to that, the intel_pstate driver is now going to respect
CPU frequency limits set by the platform firmware (or a BMC) and
provided via the ACPI _PPC object.The devfreq subsystem is getting a new "passive" governor for SoCs
subsystems that will depend on somebody else to manage their voltage
rails and its support for Samsung Exynos SoCs is consolidated.The rest is support for new hardware (Intel Broxton support in
intel_idle for one example), bug fixes, optimizations and cleanups in
a number of places.Specifics:
- New cpufreq "schedutil" governor (making decisions based on CPU
utilization information provided by the scheduler and capable of
switching CPU frequencies right away if the underlying driver
supports that) and support for fast frequency switching in the
acpi-cpufreq driver (Rafael Wysocki)- Consolidation of CPU frequency management on ARM platforms allowing
them to get rid of some platform-specific boilerplate code if they
are going to use the cpufreq-dt driver (Viresh Kumar, Finley Xiao,

Notice that get_avg_pstate() can use sample.core_avg_perf instead of

-
The core_pct_busy field of struct sample actually contains the
average performace during the last sampling period (in percent)
and not the utilization of the core as suggested by its name
which is confusing.For this reason, change the name of that field to core_avg_perf
and rename the function that computes its value accordingly.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
two changes separately, as that would likely lead to more

Currently, in intel_pstate_clear_update_util_hook(), after
clearing the utilization update hook, we leverage
synchronize_sched() to deal with synchronization, which
is a little bit time-costly because synchronize_sched()
has to wait for all the CPUs to go through a grace period.Actually, the synchronize_sched() is not necessary if the utilization
update hook has not been set for the given CPU yet, so make the driver
check if that's the case and avoid the synchronize_sched() call then.Link: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=116371

CPU_FREQ_GOV_SCHEDUTIL gained a dependency on SMP, so now we
get a warning if it gets selected by CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_SCHEDUTIL
without SMP:warning: (CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_SCHEDUTIL) selects CPU_FREQ_GOV_SCHEDUTIL which has unmet direct dependencies (CPU_FREQ && SMP)
This adds another dependency to avoid the problem.

spin_lock_irqsave) could cause a deadlock, as smp_call_function_any()
relies on the IPI to complete. This is detected in the
smp_call_function_any() call and hence the WARN_ON.- As the spinlock (gpstates->lock) is only used to synchronize access of
global_pstate_info between timer irq handler and target_index calls. And
the timer irq handler just try_locks() hence it would not cause a
deadlock. Hence could do without making spinlocks irq safe.- As the smp_call_function_any() is a blocking call and does not access
global_pstates_info, it could reduce the critcal section by moving
smp_call_function_any() after giving up the lock.Reported-by: Abdul Haleem

As reported in KBZ 69821:
"With CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC=y cpu stays at the lowest frequcency 800MHz
even if usage goes to 100%, frequency does not scale up, the governor
in use is ondemand. Neither works conservative. Performance and
userspace governors work as expected.With CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE or CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL cpu scales up with ondemand
as expected."Analysis carried out by Chen Yu leads to the conclusion that the
observed issue is due to idle_time in dbs_update() representing a
negative number in which case the function will return 0 as the load
(unless load is greater than 0 for another CPU sharing the policy),
although that need not be the right choice.Indeed, idle_time representing a negative number means that during
the last sampling interval the CPU was almost 100% busy on the rough
average, so 100 should be returned as the load in that case.Modify the code accordingly and rearrange it to clarify the handling
of all of the special cases in it. While at it, also avoid returning
zero as the load if time_elapsed is 0 (it doesn't really make sense
to return 0 then).Link: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69821

Currently when performing random CPU hot-plugs and suspend-to-ram(S2R)
on systems using arm_big_little cpufreq driver, we get warnings similar
to something like below:cpu cpu1: _opp_add: duplicate OPPs detected. Existing: freq: 600000000,
volt: 800000, enabled: 1. New: freq: 600000000, volt: 800000, enabled: 1This is mainly because the OPPs for the shared cpus are not set. We can
just use dev_pm_opp_of_cpumask_add_table in case the OPPs are obtained
from DT(arm_big_little_dt.c) or use dev_pm_opp_set_sharing_cpus if the
OPPs are obtained by other means like firmware(e.g. scpi-cpufreq.c)Also now that the generic dev_pm_opp{,_of}_cpumask_remove_table can
handle removal of opp table and entries for all associated CPUs, we can
re-use dev_pm_opp{,_of}_cpumask_remove_table as free_opp_table in
cpufreq_arm_bL_ops.This patch makes necessary changes to reuse the generic OPP functions for
{init,free}_opp_table and thereby eliminating the warnings.Signed-off-by: Sudeep Holla

Currently, the userspace governor only updates frequency on GOV_LIMITS
if policy->cur falls outside policy->{min/max}. However, it is also
necessary to update current frequency on GOV_LIMITS to match the user
requested value if it can be achieved within the new policy->{max/min}.This was previously the behaviour in the governor until commit d1922f0
("cpufreq: Simplify userspace governor") which incorrectly assumed that
policy->cur == user requested frequency via scaling_setspeed. This won't
be true if the user requested frequency falls outside policy->{min/max}.
Ex: a temporary thermal cap throttled the user requested frequency.Fix this by storing the user requested frequency in a seperate variable.
The governor will then try to achieve this request on every GOV_LIMITS
change.Fixes: d1922f02562f (cpufreq: Simplify userspace governor)

After commit 8fa520af5081 "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 7349ec0470b6 "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.Reported-by: kernel test robot

Commit 41cfd64cf49fc "Update frequencies of policy->cpus only from
->set_policy()" changed the way the intel_pstate driver's ->set_policy
callback updates the HWP (hardware-managed P-states) settings.
A side effect of it is that if those settings are modified on the
boot CPU during system suspend and wakeup, they will never be
restored during subsequent system resume.To address this problem, allow cpufreq drivers that don't provide
->target or ->target_index callbacks to use ->suspend and ->resume
callbacks and add a ->resume callback to intel_pstate to restore
the HWP settings on the CPUs that belong to the given policy.Fixes: 41cfd64cf49fc "Update frequencies of policy->cpus only from ->set_policy()"
