After commit 61cb5758d3c4 ("cpuidle: Add cpuidle.governor= command
line parameter") new cpuidle governors are not added to the list
of available governors, so governor selection via sysfs doesn't
work as expected (even though it is rarely used anyway).
Fix that by making cpuidle_register_governor() add new governors to
cpuidle_governors again.

The variance computation in get_typical_interval() may overflow if
the square of the value of diff exceeds the maximum for the int64_t
data type value which basically is the case when it is of the order
of UINT_MAX.
However, data points so far in the future don't matter for idle
state selection anyway, so change the initial threshold value in
get_typical_interval() to INT_MAX which will cause more "outlying"
data points to be discarded without affecting the selection result.

Currently, the DT of the idle states will be parsed first whether it's
compatible or not. This could cause a warning message that comes from if
the CPU doesn't support identical idle states. E.g. Tegra186 can run
with 2 Cortex-A57 and 2 Denver cores with different idle states on
different types of these cores.
So fix it by checking the match node earlier, then it can make sure it
only goes through the idle states that the CPU supported.

The default time is declared in units of microsecnds,
but is used as nanoseconds, resulting in significant
accounting errors for idle state 0 time when all idle
states deeper than 0 are disabled.
Under these unusual conditions, we don't really care
about the poll time limit anyhow.

The venerable menu governor does some things that are quite
questionable in my view.
First, it includes timer wakeups in the pattern detection data and
mixes them up with wakeups from other sources which in some cases
causes it to expect what essentially would be a timer wakeup in a
time frame in which no timer wakeups are possible (because it knows
the time until the next timer event and that is later than the
expected wakeup time).
Second, it uses the extra exit latency limit based on the predicted
idle duration and depending on the number of tasks waiting on I/O,
even though those tasks may run on a different CPU when they are
woken up. Moreover, the time ranges used by it for the sleep length
correction factors depend on whether or not there are tasks waiting
on I/O, which again doesn't imply anything in particular, and they
are not correlated to the list of available idle states in any way
whatever.
Also, the pattern detection code in menu may end up considering
values that are too large to matter at all, in which cases running
it is a waste of time.
A major rework of the menu governor would be required to address
these issues and the performance of at least some workloads (tuned
specifically to the current behavior of the menu governor) is likely
to suffer from that. It is thus better to introduce an entirely new
governor without them and let everybody use the governor that works
better with their actual workloads.
The new governor introduced here, the timer events oriented (TEO)
governor, uses the same basic strategy as menu: it always tries to
find the deepest idle state that can be used in the given conditions.
However, it applies a different approach to that problem.
First, it doesn't use "correction factors" for the time till the
closest timer, but instead it tries to correlate the measured idle
duration values with the available idle states and use that
information to pick up the idle state that is most likely to "match"
the upcoming CPU idle interval.
Second, it doesn't take the number of "I/O waiters" into account at
all and the pattern detection code in it avoids taking timer wakeups
into account. It also only uses idle duration values less than the
current time till the closest timer (with the tick excluded) for that
purpose.

Add two new metrics for CPU idle states, "above" and "below", to count
the number of times the given state had been asked for (or entered
from the kernel's perspective), but the observed idle duration turned
out to be too short or too long for it (respectively).
These metrics help to estimate the quality of the CPU idle governor
in use.

This happens because the code calls get_lppaca() which calls
get_paca() and it checks if preemption is disabled through
check_preemption_disabled().
Preemption should be disabled because the per CPU variable may make no
sense if there is a preemption (and a CPU switch) after it reads the
per CPU data and when it is used.
In this device driver specifically, it is not a problem, because this
code just needs to have access to one lppaca struct, and it does not
matter if it is the current per CPU lppaca struct or not (i.e. when
there is a preemption and a CPU migration).
That said, the most appropriate fix seems to be related to avoiding
the debug_smp_processor_id() call at get_paca(), instead of calling
preempt_disable() before get_paca().

The only reason that remains, to why the ARM cpuidle driver calls
cpuidle_register_driver(), is to avoid printing an error message in case
another driver already have been registered for the CPU. This seems a bit
silly, but more importantly, if that is a common scenario, perhaps we
should change cpuidle_register() accordingly instead.
In either case, let's consolidate the code, by converting to use
cpuidle_register|unregister(), which also avoids the unnecessary allocation
of the struct cpuidle_device.

There's no point to register the cpuidle driver for the current CPU, when
the initialization of the arch specific back-end data fails by returning
-ENXIO.
Instead, let's re-order the sequence to its original flow, by first trying
to initialize the back-end part and then act accordingly on the returned
error code. Additionally, let's print the error message, no matter of what
error code that was returned.

The function get_loadavg() returns almost always zero. To be more
precise, statistically speaking for a total of 1023379 times passing
in the function, the load is equal to zero 1020728 times, greater than
100, 610 times, the remaining is between 0 and 5.
In 2011, the get_loadavg() was removed from the Android tree because
of the above [1]. At this time, the load was:
unsigned long this_cpu_load(void)
{
struct rq *this = this_rq();
return this->cpu_load[0];
}
In 2014, the code was changed by commit 372ba8cb46b2 (cpuidle: menu: Lookup CPU
runqueues less) and the load is:
void get_iowait_load(unsigned long *nr_waiters, unsigned long *load)
{
struct rq *rq = this_rq();
*nr_waiters = atomic_read(&rq->nr_iowait);
*load = rq->load.weight;
}
with the same result.
Both measurements show using the load in this code path does no matter
anymore. Removing it.

If the minimum interval taken into account in the average computation
loop in get_typical_interval() is less than the expected idle
duration determined so far, the resultant average cannot be greater
than that value as well and the entire return result of the function
is going to be discarded anyway going forward.
In that case, it is a waste of time to carry out the remaining
computations in get_typical_interval(), so avoid that by returning
early if the minimum interval is not below the expected idle duration.

Since the correction factor cannot be greater than RESOLUTION * DECAY,
the result of the predicted_us computation in menu_select() cannot be
greater than data->next_timer_us, so it is not necessary to compare
the "typical interval" value coming from get_typical_interval() with
data->next_timer_us separately.
It is sufficient to copmare predicted_us with the return value of

After some recent menu governor changes, the promotion of the
"polling" state to a physical one is mostly controlled by the
latency limit (resulting from the "interactivity" factor) and
not by the time to the closest timer event, so it should be
sufficient to check the exit latency of that state for this
purpose (of course, its target residency still needs to be
within the next timer event range for energy-efficiency).
Also, the physical state the "polling" one is promoted to need not
be the next one in principle (in case the next state is disabled,
for example).
For these reasons, simplify the checks made to decide whether or
not to promote the "polling" state to a physical one and update
the target idle duration when it is promoted in case the residency
of the new state turns out to be above the tick boundary (in which
case there is no reason to stop the tick).

If need_resched() returns "false", breaking out of the loop in
poll_idle() will cause a new idle state to be selected, so in fact
it usually doesn't make sense to spin in it longer than the target
residency of the second state. [Note that the "polling" state is
used only if there is at least one "real" state defined in addition
to it, so the second state is always there.] On the other hand,
breaking out of it early (say in case the next state is disabled)
shouldn't hurt as it is polling anyway.
For this reason, make the loop in poll_idle() break if the CPU has
been spinning longer than the target residency of the second state
(the "polling" state can only be state[0]).

If the CPU exits the "polling" state due to the time limit in the
loop in poll_idle(), this is not a real wakeup and it just means
that the "polling" state selection was not adequate. The governor
mispredicted short idle duration, but had a more suitable state been
selected, the CPU might have spent more time in it. In fact, there
is no reason to expect that there would have been a wakeup event
earlier than the next timer in that case.
Handling such cases as regular wakeups in menu_update() may cause the
menu governor to make suboptimal decisions going forward, but ignoring
them altogether would not be correct either, because every time
menu_select() is invoked, it makes a separate new attempt to predict
the idle duration taking distinct time to the closest timer event as
input and the outcomes of all those attempts should be recorded.
For this reason, make menu_update() always assume that if the
"polling" state was exited due to the time limit, the next proper
wakeup event for the CPU would be the next timer event (not
including the tick).

cpuidle_get_last_residency() is just a wrapper for retrieving
the last_residency member of struct cpuidle_device. It's also
weirdly the only wrapper function for accessing cpuidle_* struct
member (by my best guess is it could be a leftover from v2.x).
Anyhow, since the only two users (the ladder and menu governors)
can access dev->last_residency directly, and it's more intuitive to
do it that way, let's just get rid of the wrapper.
This patch tidies up CPU idle code a bit without functional changes.

The case addressed by commit 5ef499cd571c (cpuidle: menu: Handle
stopped tick more aggressively) in the stopped tick case is present
when the tick has not been stopped yet too. Namely, if only two CPU
idle states, shallow state A with target residency significantly
below the tick boundary and deep state B with target residency
significantly above it, are available and the predicted idle
duration is above the tick boundary, but below the target residency
of state B, state A will be selected and the CPU may spend indefinite
amount of time in it, which is not quite energy-efficient.
However, if the tick has not been stopped yet and the governor is
about to select a shallow idle state for the CPU even though the idle
duration predicted by it is above the tick boundary, it should be
fine to wake up the CPU early, so the tick can be retained then and
the governor will have a chance to select a deeper state when it runs
next time.
[Note that when this really happens, it will make the idle duration
predictor believe that the CPU might be idle longer than predicted,
which will make it more likely to predict longer idle durations going
forward, but that will also cause deeper idle states to be selected
going forward, on average, which is what's needed here.]

- Make the idle loop handle stopped scheduler tick correctly (Rafael
Wysocki).
- Prevent the menu cpuidle governor from letting CPUs spend too much
time in shallow idle states when it is invoked with scheduler tick
stopped and clean it up somewhat (Rafael Wysocki).
- Avoid invoking the platform firmware to make the platform enter the
ACPI S3 sleep state with suspended PCIe root ports which may
confuse the firmware and cause it to crash (Rafael Wysocki).
- Fix sysfs-related race in the ondemand and conservative cpufreq
governors which may cause the system to crash if the governor
module is removed during an update of CPU frequency limits (Henry
Willard).
- Select SRCU when building the system wakeup framework to avoid a
build issue in it (zhangyi).
- Make the descriptions of ACPI C-states vendor-neutral to avoid
confusion (Prarit Bhargava)"

Commit 87c9fe6ee495 (cpuidle: menu: Avoid selecting shallow states
with stopped tick) missed the case when the target residencies of
deep idle states of CPUs are above the tick boundary which may cause
the CPU to get stuck in a shallow idle state for a long time.
Say there are two CPU idle states available: one shallow, with the
target residency much below the tick boundary and one deep, with
the target residency significantly above the tick boundary. In
that case, if the tick has been stopped already and the expected
next timer event is relatively far in the future, the governor will
assume the idle duration to be equal to TICK_USEC and it will select
the idle state for the CPU accordingly. However, that will cause the
shallow state to be selected even though it would have been more
energy-efficient to select the deep one.
To address this issue, modify the governor to always use the time
till the closest timer event instead of the predicted idle duration
if the latter is less than the tick period length and the tick has
been stopped already. Also make it extend the search for a matching
idle state if the tick is stopped to avoid settling on a shallow
state if deep states with target residencies above the tick period
length are available.
In addition, make it always indicate that the tick should be stopped
if it has been stopped already for consistency.

Thanks to Florian Weimer for reporting many of these.
- A series to improve the hvc driver & related OPAL console code,
which have been seen to cause hardlockups at times. The hvc driver
changes in particular have been in linux-next for ~month.
- Increase our MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS to 128TB when SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP=y.
- Remove Power8 DD1 and Power9 DD1 support, neither chip should be in

It's perfectly fine to have multiple cpuidle driver compiled in the
build configuration. However, it's not good to throw error on driver
registration failure if some other driver is already initialised and
assigned. In such cases, __cpuidle_register_driver returns -EBUSY and
we can check for such error before throwing the error.

The commit 78eaa10f027c ("cpuidle: powernv/pseries: Auto-promotion of
snooze to deeper idle state") introduced a timeout for the snooze idle
state so that it could be eventually be promoted to a deeper idle
state. The snooze timeout value is static and set to the target
residency of the next idle state, which would train the cpuidle
governor to pick the next idle state eventually.
The unfortunate side-effect of this is that if the next idle state(s)
is disabled, the CPU will forever remain in snooze, despite the fact
that the system is completely idle, and other deeper idle states are
available.
This patch fixes the issue by dynamically setting the snooze timeout
to the target residency of the next enabled state on the device.

If the scheduler tick has been stopped already and the governor
selects a shallow idle state, the CPU can spend a long time in that
state if the selection is based on an inaccurate prediction of idle
time. That effect turns out to be relevant, so it needs to be
mitigated.
To that end, modify the menu governor to discard the result of the
idle time prediction if the tick is stopped and the predicted idle
time is less than the tick period length, unless the tick timer is
going to expire soon.

If the tick isn't stopped, the target residency of the state selected
by the menu governor may be greater than the actual time to the next
tick and that means lost energy.
To avoid that, make tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() return the current
time to the next event (before stopping the tick) in addition to the
estimated one via an extra pointer argument and make menu_select()
use that value to refine the state selection when necessary.

Add a new pointer argument to cpuidle_select() and to the ->select
cpuidle governor callback to allow a boolean value indicating
whether or not the tick should be stopped before entering the
selected state to be returned from there.
Make the ladder governor ignore that pointer (to preserve its
current behavior) and make the menu governor return 'false" through
it if:
(1) the idle exit latency is constrained at 0, or
(2) the selected state is a polling one, or
(3) the expected idle period duration is within the tick period
range.
In addition to that, the correction factor computations in the menu
governor need to take the possibility that the tick may not be
stopped into account to avoid artificially small correction factor
values. To that end, add a mechanism to record tick wakeups, as
suggested by Peter Zijlstra, and use it to modify the menu_update()
behavior when tick wakeup occurs. Namely, if the CPU is woken up by
the tick and the return value of tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() is not
within the tick boundary, the predicted idle duration is likely too
short, so make menu_update() try to compensate for that by updating
the governor statistics as though the CPU was idle for a long time.
Since the value returned through the new argument pointer of
cpuidle_select() is not used by its caller yet, this change by
itself is not expected to alter the functionality of the code.

Rik reports that he sees an increase in CPU use in one benchmark
due to commit 612f1a22f067 "cpuidle: poll_state: Add time limit to
poll_idle()" that caused poll_idle() to call local_clock() in every
iteration of the loop. Utilization increase generally means more
non-idle time with respect to total CPU time (on the average) which
implies reduced CPU frequency.
Doug reports that limiting the rate of local_clock() invocations
in there causes much less power to be drawn during a CPU-intensive
parallel workload (with idle states 1 and 2 disabled to enforce more
state 0 residency).
These two reports together suggest that executing local_clock() on
multiple CPUs in parallel at a high rate may cause chips to get hot
and trigger thermal/power limits on them to kick in, so reduce the
rate of local_clock() invocations in poll_idle() to avoid that issue.

If poll_idle() is allowed to spin until need_resched() returns 'true',
it may actually spin for a much longer time than expected by the idle
governor, since set_tsk_need_resched() is not always called by the
timer interrupt handler. If that happens, the CPU may spend much
more time than anticipated in the "polling" state.
To prevent that from happening, limit the time of the spinning loop
in poll_idle().
