[PATCH] create and destroy cpufreq sysfs entries based on cpu notifiers cpufreq entries in sysfs should only be populated when CPU is online state. When we either boot with maxcpus=x and then boot the other cpus by echoing to sysfs online file, these entries should be created and destroyed when CPU_DEAD is notified. Same treatement as cache entries under sysfs. We place the processor in the lowest frequency, so hw managed P-State transitions can still work on the other threads to save power. Primary goal was to just make these directories appear/disapper dynamically. There is one in this patch i had to do, which i really dont like myself but probably best if someone handling the cpufreq infrastructure could give this code right treatment if this is not acceptable. I guess its probably good for the first cut. - Converting lock_cpu_hotplug()/unlock_cpu_hotplug() to disable/enable preempt. The locking was smack in the middle of the notification path, when the hotplug is already holding the lock. I tried another solution to avoid this so avoid taking locks if we know we are from notification path. The solution was getting very ugly and i decided this was probably good for this iteration until someone who understands cpufreq could do a better job than me.

[PATCH] Notifier chain update: API changes The kernel's implementation of notifier chains is unsafe. There is no protection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the chain is in use. The issues were discussed in this thread: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113018709002036&w=2 We noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage classes: "Blocking" chains are always called from a process context and the callout routines are allowed to sleep; "Atomic" chains can be called from an atomic context and the callout routines are not allowed to sleep. We decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API. Therefore this set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking notifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for "raw" notifiers (which is really just the old API under a new name). New kinds of data structures are used for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for registration, unregistration, and calling a chain. The three APIs are explained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in kernel/sys.c. With atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain links will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by entries being added or removed. For raw chains the implementation provides no guarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections. (The idea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and blocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to handle these things in their own way.) There are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with. For atomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in a process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem. Also, a callout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister entries on its own chain. (This did happen in a couple of places and the code had to be changed to avoid it.) Since atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use spinlocks for synchronization. Instead we use RCU. The overhead falls almost entirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much less frequent that calling a chain. Here is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications. None of them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder.

If they are, please let us know or submit a patch to fix them. Note that any chain that gets called very frequently should be atomic, because the rwsem read-locking used for blocking chains is very likely to incur cache misses on SMP systems. (However, if the chain's callout routines may sleep then the chain cannot be atomic.)

[ACPI/CPUFREQ] Introduce bios_limit per cpu cpufreq sysfs interface This interface is mainly intended (and implemented) for ACPI _PPC BIOS frequency limitations, but other cpufreq drivers can also use it for similar use-cases. Why is this needed: Currently it's not obvious why cpufreq got limited. People see cpufreq/scaling_max_freq reduced, but this could have happened by: - any userspace prog writing to scaling_max_freq - thermal limitations - hardware (_PPC in ACPI case) limitiations Therefore export bios_limit (in kHz) to: - Point the user that it's the BIOS (broken or intended) which limits frequency - Export it as a sysfs interface for userspace progs. While this was a rarely used feature on laptops, there will appear more and more server implemenations providing "Green IT" features like allowing the service processor to limit the frequency. People want to know about HW/BIOS frequency limitations. All ACPI P-state driven cpufreq drivers are covered with this patch: - powernow-k8 - powernow-k7 - acpi-cpufreq Tested with a patched DSDT which limits the first two cores (_PPC returns 1) via _PPC, exposed by bios_limit: # echo 2200000 >cpu2/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq # cat cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq 2600000 2600000 2200000 2200000 # #scaling_max_freq shows general user/thermal/BIOS limitations # cat cpu*/cpufreq/bios_limit 2600000 2600000 2800000 2800000 # #bios_limit only shows the HW/BIOS limitation CC: Pallipadi Venkatesh <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com> CC: Len Brown <lenb@kernel.org> CC: davej@codemonkey.org.uk CC: linux@dominikbrodowski.net Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com>

[ACPI/CPUFREQ] Introduce bios_limit per cpu cpufreq sysfs interface This interface is mainly intended (and implemented) for ACPI _PPC BIOS frequency limitations, but other cpufreq drivers can also use it for similar use-cases. Why is this needed: Currently it's not obvious why cpufreq got limited. People see cpufreq/scaling_max_freq reduced, but this could have happened by: - any userspace prog writing to scaling_max_freq - thermal limitations - hardware (_PPC in ACPI case) limitiations Therefore export bios_limit (in kHz) to: - Point the user that it's the BIOS (broken or intended) which limits frequency - Export it as a sysfs interface for userspace progs. While this was a rarely used feature on laptops, there will appear more and more server implemenations providing "Green IT" features like allowing the service processor to limit the frequency. People want to know about HW/BIOS frequency limitations. All ACPI P-state driven cpufreq drivers are covered with this patch: - powernow-k8 - powernow-k7 - acpi-cpufreq Tested with a patched DSDT which limits the first two cores (_PPC returns 1) via _PPC, exposed by bios_limit: # echo 2200000 >cpu2/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq # cat cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq 2600000 2600000 2200000 2200000 # #scaling_max_freq shows general user/thermal/BIOS limitations # cat cpu*/cpufreq/bios_limit 2600000 2600000 2800000 2800000 # #bios_limit only shows the HW/BIOS limitation CC: Pallipadi Venkatesh <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com> CC: Len Brown <lenb@kernel.org> CC: davej@codemonkey.org.uk CC: linux@dominikbrodowski.net Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com>

[PATCH] create and destroy cpufreq sysfs entries based on cpu notifiers cpufreq entries in sysfs should only be populated when CPU is online state. When we either boot with maxcpus=x and then boot the other cpus by echoing to sysfs online file, these entries should be created and destroyed when CPU_DEAD is notified. Same treatement as cache entries under sysfs. We place the processor in the lowest frequency, so hw managed P-State transitions can still work on the other threads to save power. Primary goal was to just make these directories appear/disapper dynamically. There is one in this patch i had to do, which i really dont like myself but probably best if someone handling the cpufreq infrastructure could give this code right treatment if this is not acceptable. I guess its probably good for the first cut. - Converting lock_cpu_hotplug()/unlock_cpu_hotplug() to disable/enable preempt. The locking was smack in the middle of the notification path, when the hotplug is already holding the lock. I tried another solution to avoid this so avoid taking locks if we know we are from notification path. The solution was getting very ugly and i decided this was probably good for this iteration until someone who understands cpufreq could do a better job than me.

[PATCH] create and destroy cpufreq sysfs entries based on cpu notifiers cpufreq entries in sysfs should only be populated when CPU is online state. When we either boot with maxcpus=x and then boot the other cpus by echoing to sysfs online file, these entries should be created and destroyed when CPU_DEAD is notified. Same treatement as cache entries under sysfs. We place the processor in the lowest frequency, so hw managed P-State transitions can still work on the other threads to save power. Primary goal was to just make these directories appear/disapper dynamically. There is one in this patch i had to do, which i really dont like myself but probably best if someone handling the cpufreq infrastructure could give this code right treatment if this is not acceptable. I guess its probably good for the first cut. - Converting lock_cpu_hotplug()/unlock_cpu_hotplug() to disable/enable preempt. The locking was smack in the middle of the notification path, when the hotplug is already holding the lock. I tried another solution to avoid this so avoid taking locks if we know we are from notification path. The solution was getting very ugly and i decided this was probably good for this iteration until someone who understands cpufreq could do a better job than me.

In fact, ->resume() was defined and used before the PPC-related commit 42d4dc3f4e1e complained about in 4bc5d3413503. (2) Therfore, the resume functions in acpi_cpufreq and speedstep-smi would never be called. (3) This means speedstep-smi would be unusuable after suspend or resume. The _real_ problem was calling cpufreq_driver->get() with interrupts off, but it re-enabling interrupts on some platforms. Why is ->get() necessary? Some systems like to change the CPU frequency behind our back, especially during BIOS-intensive operations like suspend or resume. If such systems also use a CPU frequency-dependant timing loop, delays might be off by large factors. Therefore, we need to ascertain as soon as possible that the CPU frequency is indeed at the speed we think it is. You can do this two ways: either setting it anew, or trying to get it. The latter is what was done, the former also has the same IRQ issue. So, let's try something different: defer the checking to after interrupts are re-enabled, by calling cpufreq_update_policy() (via schedule_work()). Timings may be off until this later stage, so let's watch out for resume regressions caused by the deferred handling of frequency changes behind the kernel's back.

[PATCH] Notifier chain update: API changes The kernel's implementation of notifier chains is unsafe. There is no protection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the chain is in use. The issues were discussed in this thread: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113018709002036&w=2 We noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage classes: "Blocking" chains are always called from a process context and the callout routines are allowed to sleep; "Atomic" chains can be called from an atomic context and the callout routines are not allowed to sleep. We decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API. Therefore this set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking notifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for "raw" notifiers (which is really just the old API under a new name). New kinds of data structures are used for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for registration, unregistration, and calling a chain. The three APIs are explained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in kernel/sys.c. With atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain links will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by entries being added or removed. For raw chains the implementation provides no guarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections. (The idea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and blocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to handle these things in their own way.) There are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with. For atomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in a process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem. Also, a callout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister entries on its own chain. (This did happen in a couple of places and the code had to be changed to avoid it.) Since atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use spinlocks for synchronization. Instead we use RCU. The overhead falls almost entirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much less frequent that calling a chain. Here is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications. None of them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder. ATOMIC CHAINS ------------- arch/i386/kernel/traps.c: i386die_chain arch/ia64/kernel/traps.c: ia64die_chain arch/powerpc/kernel/traps.c: powerpc_die_chain arch/sparc64/kernel/traps.c: sparc64die_chain arch/x86_64/kernel/traps.c: die_chain drivers/char/ipmi/ipmi_si_intf.c: xaction_notifier_list kernel/panic.c: panic_notifier_list kernel/profile.c: task_free_notifier net/bluetooth/hci_core.c: hci_notifier net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c: ip_conntrack_chain net/ipv4/netfilter/ip_conntrack_core.c: ip_conntrack_expect_chain net/ipv6/addrconf.c: inet6addr_chain net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c: nf_conntrack_chain net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_core.c: nf_conntrack_expect_chain net/netlink/af_netlink.c: netlink_chain BLOCKING CHAINS --------------- arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/reconfig.c: pSeries_reconfig_chain arch/s390/kernel/process.c: idle_chain arch/x86_64/kernel/process.c idle_notifier drivers/base/memory.c: memory_chain drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c cpufreq_policy_notifier_list drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c cpufreq_transition_notifier_list drivers/macintosh/adb.c: adb_client_list drivers/macintosh/via-pmu.c sleep_notifier_list drivers/macintosh/via-pmu68k.c sleep_notifier_list drivers/macintosh/windfarm_core.c wf_client_list drivers/usb/core/notify.c usb_notifier_list drivers/video/fbmem.c fb_notifier_list kernel/cpu.c cpu_chain kernel/module.c module_notify_list kernel/profile.c munmap_notifier kernel/profile.c task_exit_notifier kernel/sys.c reboot_notifier_list net/core/dev.c netdev_chain net/decnet/dn_dev.c: dnaddr_chain net/ipv4/devinet.c: inetaddr_chain It's possible that some of these classifications are wrong. If they are, please let us know or submit a patch to fix them. Note that any chain that gets called very frequently should be atomic, because the rwsem read-locking used for blocking chains is very likely to incur cache misses on SMP systems. (However, if the chain's callout routines may sleep then the chain cannot be atomic.)

[PATCH] Notifier chain update: API changes The kernel's implementation of notifier chains is unsafe. There is no protection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the chain is in use. The issues were discussed in this thread: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113018709002036&w=2 We noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage classes: "Blocking" chains are always called from a process context and the callout routines are allowed to sleep; "Atomic" chains can be called from an atomic context and the callout routines are not allowed to sleep. We decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API. Therefore this set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking notifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for "raw" notifiers (which is really just the old API under a new name). New kinds of data structures are used for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for registration, unregistration, and calling a chain. The three APIs are explained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in kernel/sys.c. With atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain links will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by entries being added or removed. For raw chains the implementation provides no guarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections. (The idea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and blocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to handle these things in their own way.) There are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with. For atomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in a process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem. Also, a callout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister entries on its own chain. (This did happen in a couple of places and the code had to be changed to avoid it.) Since atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use spinlocks for synchronization. Instead we use RCU. The overhead falls almost entirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much less frequent that calling a chain. Here is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications. None of them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder.

[PATCH] create and destroy cpufreq sysfs entries based on cpu notifiers cpufreq entries in sysfs should only be populated when CPU is online state. When we either boot with maxcpus=x and then boot the other cpus by echoing to sysfs online file, these entries should be created and destroyed when CPU_DEAD is notified. Same treatement as cache entries under sysfs. We place the processor in the lowest frequency, so hw managed P-State transitions can still work on the other threads to save power. Primary goal was to just make these directories appear/disapper dynamically. There is one in this patch i had to do, which i really dont like myself but probably best if someone handling the cpufreq infrastructure could give this code right treatment if this is not acceptable. I guess its probably good for the first cut. - Converting lock_cpu_hotplug()/unlock_cpu_hotplug() to disable/enable preempt. The locking was smack in the middle of the notification path, when the hotplug is already holding the lock. I tried another solution to avoid this so avoid taking locks if we know we are from notification path. The solution was getting very ugly and i decided this was probably good for this iteration until someone who understands cpufreq could do a better job than me.

[PATCH] Notifier chain update: API changes The kernel's implementation of notifier chains is unsafe. There is no protection against entries being added to or removed from a chain while the chain is in use. The issues were discussed in this thread: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=113018709002036&w=2 We noticed that notifier chains in the kernel fall into two basic usage classes: "Blocking" chains are always called from a process context and the callout routines are allowed to sleep; "Atomic" chains can be called from an atomic context and the callout routines are not allowed to sleep. We decided to codify this distinction and make it part of the API. Therefore this set of patches introduces three new, parallel APIs: one for blocking notifiers, one for atomic notifiers, and one for "raw" notifiers (which is really just the old API under a new name). New kinds of data structures are used for the heads of the chains, and new routines are defined for registration, unregistration, and calling a chain. The three APIs are explained in include/linux/notifier.h and their implementation is in kernel/sys.c. With atomic and blocking chains, the implementation guarantees that the chain links will not be corrupted and that chain callers will not get messed up by entries being added or removed. For raw chains the implementation provides no guarantees at all; users of this API must provide their own protections. (The idea was that situations may come up where the assumptions of the atomic and blocking APIs are not appropriate, so it should be possible for users to handle these things in their own way.) There are some limitations, which should not be too hard to live with. For atomic/blocking chains, registration and unregistration must always be done in a process context since the chain is protected by a mutex/rwsem. Also, a callout routine for a non-raw chain must not try to register or unregister entries on its own chain. (This did happen in a couple of places and the code had to be changed to avoid it.) Since atomic chains may be called from within an NMI handler, they cannot use spinlocks for synchronization. Instead we use RCU. The overhead falls almost entirely in the unregister routine, which is okay since unregistration is much less frequent that calling a chain. Here is the list of chains that we adjusted and their classifications. None of them use the raw API, so for the moment it is only a placeholder.

Note that any chain that gets called very frequently should be atomic, because the rwsem read-locking used for blocking chains is very likely to incur cache misses on SMP systems. (However, if the chain's callout routines may sleep then the chain cannot be atomic.)

[CPUFREQ] fix BUG on cpufreq policy init failure cpufreq_register_driver sets cpufreq_driver to a structure owned (and placed) in the caller's memory. If cpufreq policy fails in its ->init function, sysdev_driver_register returns nonzero in cpufreq_register_driver. Now, cpufreq_register_driver returns an error without setting cpufreq_driver back to NULL. Usually cpufreq policy modules are unloaded because they propagate the error to the module init function and return that. So a later access to any member of cpufreq_driver causes bugs like: BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffffffa00270a0 IP: [<ffffffff8145eca3>] cpufreq_cpu_get+0x53/0xe0 PGD 1805067 PUD 1809063 PMD 1c3f90067 PTE 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP last sysfs file: /sys/devices/virtual/net/tun0/statistics/collisions CPU 0 Modules linked in: ...
