When doing an nmi backtrace of many cores, most of which are idle, the
output is a little overwhelming and very uninformative. Suppress
messages for cpus that are idling when they are interrupted and just
emit one line, "NMI backtrace for N skipped: idling at pc 0xNNN".We do this by grouping all the cpuidle code together into a new
.cpuidle.text section, and then checking the address of the interrupted
PC to see if it lies within that section.This commit suitably tags x86 and tile idle routines, and only adds in
the minimal framework for other architectures.Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1472487169-14923-5-git-send-email-cmetcalf@mellanox.com

Pull CPU hotplug updates from Thomas Gleixner:
"Yet another batch of cpu hotplug core updates and conversions:- Provide core infrastructure for multi instance drivers so the
drivers do not have to keep custom lists.- Convert custom lists to the new infrastructure. The block-mq custom
list conversion comes through the block tree and makes the diffstat
tip over to more lines removed than added.- Handle unbalanced hotplug enable/disable calls more gracefully.
- Remove the obsolete CPU_STARTING/DYING notifier support.
- Convert another batch of notifier users.
The relayfs changes which conflicted with the conversion have been
shipped to me by Andrew.The remaining lot is targeted for 4.10 so that we finally can remove

The function arm_enter_idle_state is exactly the same in both generic
ARM{32,64} CPUIdle driver and will be the same even on ARM64 backend
for ACPI processor idle driver. So we can unify it and move it to a
common place by introducing CPU_PM_CPU_IDLE_ENTER macro that can be
used in all places avoiding duplication.This is in preparation of reuse of the generic cpuidle entry function
for ACPI LPI support on ARM64.Suggested-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

POWER ISA v3 defines a new idle processor core mechanism. In summary,
a) new instruction named stop is added.
b) new per thread SPR named PSSCR is added which controls the behavior
of stop instruction.Supported idle states and value to be written to PSSCR register to enter
any idle state is exposed via ibm,cpu-idle-state-names and
ibm,cpu-idle-state-psscr respectively. To enter an idle state,
platform provided power_stop() needs to be invoked with the appropriate
PSSCR value.This patch adds support for this new mechanism in cpuidle powernv driver.

Snooze is a poll idle state in powernv and pseries platforms. Snooze
has a timeout so that if a CPU stays in snooze for more than target
residency of the next available idle state, then it would exit
thereby giving chance to the cpuidle governor to re-evaluate and
promote the CPU to a deeper idle state. Therefore whenever snooze
exits due to this timeout, its last_residency will be target_residency
of the next deeper state.Commit e93e59ce5b85 "cpuidle: Replace ktime_get() with local_clock()"
changed the math around last_residency calculation. Specifically,
while converting last_residency value from nano- to microseconds, it
carries out right shift by 10. Because of that, in snooze timeout
exit scenarios last_residency calculated is roughly 2.3% less than
target_residency of the next available state. This pattern is picked
up by get_typical_interval() in the menu governor and therefore
expected_interval in menu_select() is frequently less than the
target_residency of any state other than snooze.Due to this we are entering snooze at a higher rate, thereby
affecting the single thread performance.Fix this by using more precise division via ktime_us_delta().

Commit 0b89e9aa2856 (cpuidle: delay enabling interrupts until all
coupled CPUs leave idle) rightfully fixed a regression by letting
the coupled idle state framework to handle local interrupt enabling
when the CPU is exiting an idle state.The current code checks if the idle state is coupled and, if so, it
will let the coupled code to enable interrupts. This way, it can
decrement the ready-count before handling the interrupt. This
mechanism prevents the other CPUs from waiting for a CPU which is
handling interrupts.But the check is done against the state index returned by the back
end driver's ->enter functions which could be different from the
initial index passed as parameter to the cpuidle_enter_state()
function.entered_state = target_state->enter(dev, drv, index);
[ ... ]
if (!cpuidle_state_is_coupled(drv, entered_state))
local_irq_enable();[ ... ]
If the 'index' is referring to a coupled idle state but the
'entered_state' is *not* coupled, then the interrupts are enabled
again. All CPUs blocked on the sync barrier may busy loop longer
if the CPU has interrupts to handle before decrementing the
ready-count. That's consuming more energy than saving.Fixes: 0b89e9aa2856 (cpuidle: delay enabling interrupts until all coupled CPUs leave idle)

The ktime_get() can have a non negligeable overhead, use local_clock()
instead.In order to test the difference between ktime_get() and local_clock(),
a quick hack has been added to trigger, via debugfs, 10000 times a
call to ktime_get() and local_clock() and measure the elapsed time.Then the average value, the min and max is computed for each call.
From userspace, the test above was called 100 times every 2 seconds.
So, ktime_get() and local_clock() have been called 1000000 times in
total.The results are:
ktime_get():
============
* average: 101 ns (stddev: 27.4)
* maximum: 38313 ns
* minimum: 65 nslocal_clock():
==============
* average: 60 ns (stddev: 9.8)
* maximum: 13487 ns
* minimum: 46 nsThe local_clock() is faster and more stable.
Even if it is a drop in the ocean, changing the ktime_get() by the
local_clock() allows to save 80ns at idle time (entry + exit). And
in some circumstances, especially when there are several CPUs racing
for the clock access, we save tens of microseconds.The idle duration resulting from a diff is converted from nanosec to
microsec. This could be done with integer division (div 1000) - which is
an expensive operation or by 10 bits shifting (div 1024) - which is fast
but unprecise.The following table gives some results at the limits.
------------------------------------------
| nsec | div(1000) | div(1024) |
------------------------------------------
| 1e3 | 1 usec | 976 nsec |
------------------------------------------
| 1e6 | 1000 usec | 976 usec |
------------------------------------------
| 1e9 | 1000000 usec | 976562 usec |
------------------------------------------There is a linear deviation of 2.34%. This loss of precision is acceptable
in the context of the resulting diff which is used for statistics. These
ones are processed to guess estimate an approximation of the duration of the
next idle period which ends up into an idle state selection. The selection
criteria takes into account the next duration based on large intervals,
represented by the idle state's target residency.The 2^10 division is enough because the approximation regarding the 1e3
division is lost in all the approximations done for the next idle duration
computation.Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano

Currently the 'registered' member of the cpuidle_device struct is set
to 1 during cpuidle_register_device. In this same function there are
checks to see if the device is already registered to prevent duplicate
calls to register the device, but this value is never set to 0 even on
unregister of the device. Because of this, any attempt to call
cpuidle_register_device after a call to cpuidle_unregister_device will
fail which shouldn't be the case.To prevent this, set registered to 0 when the device is unregistered.

Commit a9ceb78bc75c (cpuidle,menu: use interactivity_req to disable
polling) changed the behavior of the fallback state selection part
of menu_select() so it looks at interactivity_req instead of
data->next_timer_us when it makes its decision. That effectively
caused polling to be used more often as fallback idle which led to
significant increases of energy consumption in some cases.Commit e132b9b3bc7f (cpuidle: menu: use high confidence factors
only when considering polling) changed that logic again to be more
predictable, but that didn't help with the increased energy
consumption problem.For this reason, go back to making decisions on which state to fall
back to based on data->next_timer_us which is the time we know for
sure something will happen rather than a prediction (which may be
inaccurate and turns out to be so often enough to be problematic).
However, take the target residency of the first proper idle state
(C1) into account, so that state is not used as the fallback one
if its target residency is greater than data->next_timer_us.Fixes: a9ceb78bc75c (cpuidle,menu: use interactivity_req to disable polling)

The menu governor uses five different factors to pick the
idle state:
- the user configured latency_req
- the time until the next timer (next_timer_us)
- the typical sleep interval, as measured recently
- an estimate of sleep time by dividing next_timer_us by an observed factor
- a load corrected version of the above, divided again by loadOnly the first three items are known with enough confidence that
we can use them to consider polling, instead of an actual CPU
idle state, because the cost of being wrong about polling can be
excessive power use.The latter two are used in the menu governor's main selection
loop, and can result in choosing a shallower idle state when
the system is expected to be busy again soon.This pushes a busy system in the "performance" direction of
the performance<>power tradeoff, when choosing between idle
states, but stays more strictly on the "power" state when
deciding between polling and C1.Signed-off-by: Rik van Riel

find_deepest_state() returns 0 even when enter_freeze callbacks are not

Pull more power management and ACPI updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"This includes fixes on top of the previous batch of PM+ACPI updates
and some new material as well.From the new material perspective the most significant are the driver
core changes that should allow USB devices to stay suspended over
system suspend/resume cycles if they have been runtime-suspended
already beforehand. Apart from that, ACPICA is updated to upstream
revision 20160108 (cosmetic mostly, but including one fixup on top of
the previous ACPICA update) and there are some devfreq updates the
didn't make it before (due to timing).A few recent regressions are fixed, most importantly in the cpuidle
menu governor and in the ACPI backlight driver and some x86 platform
drivers depending on it.Some more bugs are fixed and cleanups are made on top of that.
Specifics:
- Modify the driver core and the USB subsystem to allow USB devices
to stay suspended over system suspend/resume cycles if they have
been runtime-suspended already beforehand and fix some bugs on top
of these changes (Tomeu Vizoso, Rafael Wysocki).- Update ACPICA to upstream revision 20160108, including updates of
the ACPICA's copyright notices, a code fixup resulting from a
regression fix that was necessary in the upstream code only (the
regression fixed by it has never been present in Linux) and a
compiler warning fix (Bob Moore, Lv Zheng).- Fix a recent regression in the cpuidle menu governor that broke it
on practically all architectures other than x86 and make a couple
of optimizations on top of that fix (Rafael Wysocki).- Clean up the selection of cpuidle governors depending on whether or
not the kernel is configured for tickless systems (Jean Delvare).- Revert a recent commit that introduced a regression in the ACPI
backlight driver, address the problem it attempted to fix in a
different way and revert one more cosmetic change depending on the
problematic commit (Hans de Goede).- Add two more ACPI backlight quirks (Hans de Goede).
- Fix a few minor problems in the core devfreq code, clean it up a
bit and update the MAINTAINERS information related to it (Chanwoo

If menu_select() cannot find a suitable state to return, it will
return the state index stored in data->last_state_idx. This
means that it is pointless to look at the states whose indices
are less than or equal to data->last_state_idx in the main loop,
so don't do that.Given that those checks are done on every idle state selection, this
change can save quite a bit of completely unnecessary overhead.Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

Commit a9ceb78bc75c (cpuidle,menu: use interactivity_req to disable
polling) exposed a bug in menu_select() causing it to return -1
on systems with CPUIDLE_DRIVER_STATE_START equal to zero, although
it should have returned 0. As a result, idle states are not entered
by CPUs on those systems.Namely, on the systems in question data->last_state_idx is initially
equal to -1 and the above commit modified the condition that would
have caused it to be changed to 0 to be less likely to trigger which
exposed the problem. However, setting data->last_state_idx initially
to -1 doesn't make sense at all and on the affected systems it should
always be set to CPUIDLE_DRIVER_STATE_START (ie. 0) unconditionally,
so make that happen.Fixes: a9ceb78bc75c (cpuidle,menu: use interactivity_req to disable polling)

The cpuidle state tables contain the maximum exit latency for each
cpuidle state. On x86, that is the exit latency for when the entire
package goes into that same idle state.However, a lot of the time we only go into the core idle state,
not the package idle state. This means we see a much smaller exit
latency.We have no way to detect whether we went into the core or package
idle state while idle, and that is ok.However, the current menu_update logic does have the potential to
trip up the repeating pattern detection in get_typical_interval.
If the system is experiencing an exit latency near the idle state's
exit latency, some of the samples will have exit_us subtracted,
while others will not. This turns a repeating pattern into mush,
potentially breaking get_typical_interval.Furthermore, for smaller sleep intervals, we know the chance that
all the cores in the package went to the same idle state are fairly
small. Dividing the measured_us by two, instead of subtracting the
full exit latency when hitting a small measured_us, will reduce the
error.Signed-off-by: Rik van Riel

The menu governor carefully figures out how much time we typically
sleep for an estimated sleep interval, or whether there is a repeating
pattern going on, and corrects that estimate for the CPU load.Then it proceeds to ignore that information when determining whether
or not to consider polling. This is not a big deal on most x86 CPUs,
which have very low C1 latencies, and the patch should not have any
effect on those CPUs.However, certain CPUs (eg. Atom) have much higher C1 latencies, and
it would be good to not waste performance and power on those CPUs if
we are expecting a very low wakeup latency.Disable polling based on the estimated interactivity requirement, not
on the time to the next timer interrupt.Signed-off-by: Rik van Riel
