  • Broxton has all the HSW C-states, except C3.
    BXT C-state timing is slightly different.

    Here we trust the IRTL MSRs as authority
    on maximum C-state latency, and override the driver's tables
    with the values found in the associated IRTL MSRs.
    Further we set the target_residency to 1x maximum latency,
    trusting the hardware demotion logic.

  • This driver registers cpuidle devices when a CPU comes online, but it
    leaves the registrations in place when a CPU goes offline. The module
    exit code only unregisters the currently online CPUs, leaving the
    devices for offline CPUs dangling.

    This patch changes the driver to clean up all registrations on exit,
    even those from CPUs that are offline.

  • If a cpuidle registration error occurs during the hot plug notifier

  • The helper function, intel_idle_cpu_init, registers one new device
    with the cpuidle layer. If the registration should fail, that
    function immediately calls intel_idle_cpuidle_devices_uninit() to
    unregister every last CPU's device. However, it makes no sense to do
    so, when called from the hot plug notifier callback.

    This patch moves the call to intel_idle_cpuidle_devices_uninit()
    outside of the helper function to the one call site that actually
    needs to perform the de-registrations.

  • This driver sets the broadcast tick quite early on during probe and does

  • The helper function, intel_idle_cpuidle_devices_uninit, frees the
    globally allocated per-CPU data. However, this function is invoked
    from the hot plug notifier callback at a time when freeing that data
    is not safe.

    If the call to cpuidle_register_driver() should fail (say, due to lack
    of memory), then the driver will free its per-CPU region. On the
    *next* CPU_ONLINE event, the driver will happily use the region again
    and even free it again if the failure repeats.

    This patch fixes the issue by moving the call to free_percpu() outside
    of the helper function at the two call sites that actually need to
    free the per-CPU data.

  • In the module_exit() method, this driver first frees its per-CPU
    pointer, then unregisters a callback making use of the pointer.
    Furthermore, the function, intel_idle_cpuidle_devices_uninit, is racy
    against CPU hot plugging as it calls for_each_online_cpu().

    This patch corrects the issues by unregistering first on the exit path
    while holding the hot plug lock.

  • The function, intel_idle_cpuidle_driver_init, makes calls on each CPU
    to auto_demotion_disable() and c1e_promotion_disable(). These calls
    are redundant, as intel_idle_cpu_init() does the same calls just a bit
    later on. They are also premature, as the driver registration may yet
    fail.

  • Some SKL-H configurations require "intel_idle.max_cstate=7" to boot.
    While that is an effective workaround, it disables C10.

    This patch detects the problematic configuration,
    and disables C8 and C9, keeping C10 enabled.

    Note that enabling SGX in BIOS SETUP can also prevent this issue,

  • intel_idle uses a NULL "enter" field in a cpuidle state
    to recognize the invalid entry terminating a variable-length array.

    Linux-4.0 added support for the system-wide "freeze" state
    in cpuidle drivers via the new "enter_freeze" field.

    The natural way to expose a deep idle state for freeze,
    but not for run-time idle is to supply "enter_freeze" without "enter";
    so we update the driver to accept such states.

  • Pull power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
    "These are mostly fixes and cleanups all over, although there are a few
    items that sort of fall into the new feature category.

    First off, we have new callbacks for PM domains that should help us to
    handle some issues related to device initialization in a better way.

    There also is some consolidation in the unified device properties API
    area allowing us to use that inferface for accessing data coming from
    platform initialization code in addition to firmware-provided data.

    We have some new device/CPU IDs in a few drivers, support for new
    chips and a new cpufreq driver too.

    Specifics:

    - Generic PM domains support update including new PM domain callbacks
    to handle device initialization better (Russell King, Rafael J
    Wysocki, Kevin Hilman)

    - Unified device properties API update including a new mechanism for
    accessing data provided by platform initialization code (Rafael J
    Wysocki, Adrian Hunter)

    - ARM cpuidle update including ARM32/ARM64 handling consolidation
    (Daniel Lezcano)

    - intel_idle update including support for the Silvermont Core in the
    Baytrail SOC and for the Airmont Core in the Cherrytrail and
    Braswell SOCs (Len Brown, Mathias Krause)

    - New cpufreq driver for Hisilicon ACPU (Leo Yan)

    - intel_pstate update including support for the Knights Landing chip
    (Dasaratharaman Chandramouli, Kristen Carlson Accardi)

    - QorIQ cpufreq driver update (Tang Yuantian, Arnd Bergmann)

    - powernv cpufreq driver update (Shilpasri G Bhat)

    - devfreq update including Tegra support changes (Tomeu Vizoso,
    MyungJoo Ham, Chanwoo Choi)

    - powercap RAPL (Running-Average Power Limit) driver update including
    support for Intel Broadwell server chips (Jacob Pan, Mathias Krause)

    - ACPI device enumeration update related to the handling of the
    special PRP0001 device ID allowing DT-style 'compatible' property
    to be used for ACPI device identification (Rafael J Wysocki)

    - ACPI EC driver update including limited _DEP support (Lan Tianyu,
    Lv Zheng)

    - ACPI backlight driver update including a new mechanism to allow
    native backlight handling to be forced on non-Windows 8 systems and
    a new quirk for Lenovo Ideapad Z570 (Aaron Lu, Hans de Goede)

    - New Windows Vista compatibility quirk for Sony VGN-SR19XN (Chen Yu)

    - Assorted ACPI fixes and cleanups (Aaron Lu, Martin Kepplinger,

  • On some Silvermont-Core/Baytrail-SOC systems,
    C1E latency is higher than original specifications.
    Although C1E is still enumerated in CPUID.MWAIT.EDX,
    we delete the state from intel_idle to avoid latency impact.

    Under some conditions, the latency of the C6N-BYT and C6S-BYT states
    may exceed the specified values of 40 and 140 usec, respectively.
    Increase those values to 300 and 500 usec; to assure
    that the hardware does not violate constraints that may be set
    by the Linux PM_QOS sub-system.

    Also increase the C7-BYT target residency to 4.0 ms from 1.5 ms.

  • The only place where the time is invalid is when the ACPI_CSTATE_FFH entry
    method is not set. Otherwise for all the drivers, the time can be correctly
    measured.

    Instead of duplicating the CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIME_VALID flag in all the drivers
    for all the states, just invert the logic by replacing it by the flag
    CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIME_INVALID, hence we can set this flag only for the acpi idle
    driver, remove the former flag from all the drivers and invert the logic with
    this flag in the different governor.

  • Subsystems that want to register CPU hotplug callbacks, as well as perform
    initialization for the CPUs that are already online, often do it as shown
    below:

    get_online_cpus();

    for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
    init_cpu(cpu);

    register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);

    put_online_cpus();

    This is wrong, since it is prone to ABBA deadlocks involving the
    cpu_add_remove_lock and the cpu_hotplug.lock (when running concurrently
    with CPU hotplug operations).

    Instead, the correct and race-free way of performing the callback
    registration is:

    cpu_notifier_register_begin();

    for_each_online_cpu(cpu)
    init_cpu(cpu);

    /* Note the use of the double underscored version of the API */
    __register_cpu_notifier(&foobar_cpu_notifier);

    cpu_notifier_register_done();

    Fix the intel-idle code by using this latter form of callback registration.

  • Bay Trail (BYT) is a family of Silvermont-core Atom Processor SOCs,
    including the Intel Atom Processor Z36xxx and Z37xxx Series.

    Although it shares the Silvermont core with Avoton,
    BYT is optimized for mobile, and thus it supports
    different power saving CPU idle states.

    Note that not all versions of Bay Trail HW support all
    of the states listed in the driver.

  • Like acpi_idle, intel_idle compared sub-state numbers
    to the number of supported sub-states -- discarding
    sub-states numbers that were numbered >= the number of states.

    But some Bay Trail SOCs use sparse sub-state numbers,
    so we can't make such a comparison if we are going
    to access those states.

    So now we simply check that _some_ sub-states are
    supported for the given state, and assume that the
    sub-state number in our driver is valid.

    In practice, the driver is correct, and even if it were not,
    the hardware clips invalid sub-state requests to valid ones.

    No entries in the driver require this change,
    but Bay Trail will need it.

  • Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
    "As far as the number of commits goes, the top spot belongs to ACPI
    this time with cpufreq in the second position and a handful of PM
    core, PNP and cpuidle updates. They are fixes and cleanups mostly, as
    usual, with a couple of new features in the mix.

    The most visible change is probably that we will create struct
    acpi_device objects (visible in sysfs) for all devices represented in
    the ACPI tables regardless of their status and there will be a new
    sysfs attribute under those objects allowing user space to check that
    status via _STA.

    Consequently, ACPI device eject or generally hot-removal will not
    delete those objects, unless the table containing the corresponding
    namespace nodes is unloaded, which is extremely rare. Also ACPI
    container hotplug will be handled quite a bit differently and cpufreq
    will support CPU boost ("turbo") generically and not only in the
    acpi-cpufreq driver.

    Specifics:

    - ACPI core changes to make it create a struct acpi_device object for
    every device represented in the ACPI tables during all namespace
    scans regardless of the current status of that device. In
    accordance with this, ACPI hotplug operations will not delete those
    objects, unless the underlying ACPI tables go away.

    - On top of the above, new sysfs attribute for ACPI device objects
    allowing user space to check device status by triggering the
    execution of _STA for its ACPI object. From Srinivas Pandruvada.

    - ACPI core hotplug changes reducing code duplication, integrating
    the PCI root hotplug with the core and reworking container hotplug.

    - ACPI core simplifications making it use ACPI_COMPANION() in the
    code "glueing" ACPI device objects to "physical" devices.

    - ACPICA update to upstream version 20131218. This adds support for
    the DBG2 and PCCT tables to ACPICA, fixes some bugs and improves
    debug facilities. From Bob Moore, Lv Zheng and Betty Dall.

    - Init code change to carry out the early ACPI initialization
    earlier. That should allow us to use ACPI during the timekeeping
    initialization and possibly to simplify the EFI initialization too.
    From Chun-Yi Lee.

    - Clenups of the inclusions of ACPI headers in many places all over
    from Lv Zheng and Rashika Kheria (work in progress).

    - New helper for ACPI _DSM execution and rework of the code in
    drivers that uses _DSM to execute it via the new helper. From
    Jiang Liu.

    - New Win8 OSI blacklist entries from Takashi Iwai.

    Guo, Lan Tianyu, Masanari Iida, Oliver Neukum, Prarit Bhargava,

    Ramachandra.

    Majewski.
