When we hot-unplug a cpu, we remove its sysfs cpufreq directory and if
the outgoing cpu was the owner of policy->kobj earlier then we migrate
the sysfs directory to under another online cpu.
There are few disadvantages this brings:
- Code Complexity
- Slower hotplug/suspend/resume
- sysfs file permissions are reset after all policy->cpus are offlined
- CPUFreq stats history lost after all policy->cpus are offlined
- Special management of sysfs stuff during suspend/resume
To overcome these, this patch modifies the way sysfs directories are
managed:
- Select sysfs kobjects owner while initializing policy and don't change
it during hotplugs. Track it with kobj_cpu created earlier.
- Create symlinks for all related CPUs (can be offline) instead of
affected CPUs on policy initialization and remove them only when the
policy is freed.
- Free policy structure only on the removal of cpufreq-driver and not
during hotplug/suspend/resume, detected by checking 'struct
subsys_interface *' (Valid only when called from
subsys_interface_unregister() while unregistering driver).
Apart from this, special care is taken to handle physical hoplug of CPUs
as we wouldn't remove sysfs links or remove policies on logical
hotplugs. Physical hotplug happens in the following sequence.
Hot removal:
- CPU is offlined first, ~ 'echo 0 >
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online'
- Then its device is removed along with all sysfs files, cpufreq core
notified with cpufreq_remove_dev() callback from subsys-interface..
Hot addition:
- First the device along with its sysfs files is added, cpufreq core
notified with cpufreq_add_dev() callback from subsys-interface..
- CPU is onlined, ~ 'echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online'
We call the same routines with both hotplug and subsys callbacks, and we
sense physical hotplug with cpu_offline() check in subsys callback. We
can handle most of the stuff with regular hotplug callback paths and
add/remove cpufreq sysfs links or free policy from subsys callbacks.

Later commits would change the way policies are managed today. Policies
wouldn't be freed on cpu hotplug (currently they aren't freed only for
suspend), and while the CPU is offline, the sysfs cpufreq files would
still be present.
User may accidentally try to update the sysfs files in following
directory: '/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/cpufreq/'. And that would
result in undefined behavior as policy wouldn't be active then.
Apart from updating the store() routine, we also update __cpufreq_get()
which can call cpufreq_out_of_sync(). The later routine tries to update
policy->cur and starts notifying kernel about it.

wouldn't be freed on cpu hotplug (currently they aren't freed on

Because we don't mark policy->governor as NULL, it still contains
pointer of the last used governor. And if the governor is removed, while
all the CPUs of a policy are hotplugged out, this pointer wouldn't be
valid anymore. And if we try to read the 'scaling_governor', etc. from
sysfs, it will result in kernel OOPs.
To prevent this, mark policy->governor as NULL for all inactive policies
while the governor is removed from kernel.

History of which governor was used last is common to all CPUs within a
policy and maintaining it per-cpu isn't the best approach for sure.
Apart from wasting memory, this also increases the complexity of
managing this data structure as it has to be updated for all CPUs.
To make that somewhat simpler, lets store this information in a new
field 'last_governor' in struct cpufreq_policy and update it on removal
of last cpu of a policy.
As a side-effect it also solves an old problem, consider a system with
two clusters 0 & 1. And there is one policy per cluster.
Cluster 0: CPU0 and 1.
Cluster 1: CPU2 and 3.
- CPU2 is first brought online, and governor is set to performance
(default as cpufreq_cpu_governor wasn't set).
- Governor is changed to ondemand.
- CPU2 is taken offline and cpufreq_cpu_governor is updated for CPU2.
- CPU3 is brought online.
- Because cpufreq_cpu_governor wasn't set for CPU3, the default governor
performance is picked for CPU3.
This patch fixes the bug as we now have a single variable to update for
policy.

Now that we can check policy->cpus to find if policy is active or not,
we don't need to clean cpufreq_cpu_data and delete policy from the list
on light weight tear down of policies (like in suspend).
To make it consistent and clean, set cpufreq_cpu_data for all related
CPUs when the policy is first created and clean it only while it is
freed.
Also update cpufreq_cpu_get_raw() to check if cpu is part of
policy->cpus mask, so that we don't end up getting policies for offline
CPUs.
In order to make sure that no users of 'policy' are using an inactive
policy, use cpufreq_cpu_get_raw() instead of directly accessing
cpufreq_cpu_data.

We clear policy->cpus mask while CPUs are hotplugged out. We do it for all CPUs
except the last CPU of the policy. I don't remember what the rationale behind
that was, but I couldn't think of anything that will break if we remove this

The benefit we get out of it is, we can know if a policy is active or not by

There are two cases when we may try to add CPUs we're already handling:
- On boot, the first cpu has marked all policy->cpus managed and so we
will find policy for all other policy->cpus later on.
- When a managed cpu is hotplugged out and later brought back in.
Currently, separate paths and checks take care of the two. While the
first one is detected by testing cpu against 'policy->cpus', the other
one is detected by testing cpu against 'policy->related_cpus'.
We can handle them both via a single path and there is no need to do
special checking for the first one.

All CPUs leaving the first-online CPU are hotplugged out on suspend and
and cpufreq core stops managing them.
On resume, we need to call cpufreq_update_policy() for this CPU's policy
to make sure its frequency is in sync with cpufreq's cached value, as it
might have got updated by hardware during suspend/resume.
The policies are always added to the top of the policy-list. So, in
normal circumstances, CPU 0's policy will be the last one in the list.
And so the code checks for the last policy.
But there are cases where it will fail. Consider quad-core system, with
policy-per core. If CPU0 is hotplugged out and added back again, the
last policy will be on CPU1 :(
To fix this in a proper way, always look for the policy of the first
online CPU. That way we will be sure that we are calling
cpufreq_update_policy() for the only CPU that wasn't hotplugged out.

In __cpufreq_remove_dev_finish(), per-cpu 'cpufreq_cpu_data' needs
to be cleared before calling kobject_put(&policy->kobj) and under
cpufreq_driver_lock. Otherwise, if someone else calls cpufreq_cpu_get()
in parallel with it, they can obtain a non-NULL policy from that after
kobject_put(&policy->kobj) was executed.
Consider this case:
Thread A Thread B
cpufreq_cpu_get()
acquire cpufreq_driver_lock
read-per-cpu cpufreq_cpu_data
kobject_put(&policy->kobj);
kobject_get(&policy->kobj);
...
per_cpu(&cpufreq_cpu_data, cpu) = NULL
And this will result in a warning like this one:

The actual code flow is as follows:
Thread A: Workqueue: kacpi_notify
acpi_processor_notify()
acpi_processor_ppc_has_changed()
cpufreq_update_policy()
cpufreq_cpu_get()
kobject_get()
Thread B: xenbus_thread()

handle_vcpu_hotplug_event()

cpu_down()
__cpu_notify(CPU_POST_DEAD..)
cpufreq_cpu_callback()
__cpufreq_remove_dev_finish()
cpufreq_policy_put_kobj()
kobject_put()
cpufreq_cpu_get() gets the policy from per-cpu variable cpufreq_cpu_data
under cpufreq_driver_lock, and once it gets a valid policy it expects it
to not be freed until cpufreq_cpu_put() is called.
But the race happens when another thread puts the kobject first and updates
cpufreq_cpu_data before or later. And so the first thread gets a valid policy
structure and before it does kobject_get() on it, the second one has already
done kobject_put().
Fix this by setting cpufreq_cpu_data to NULL before putting the kobject and that
too under locks.

We should stop cpufreq governors when we shut down the system. If we
don't do this, we can end up with this deadlock:
1. cpufreq governor may be running on a CPU other than CPU0.
2. In machine_restart() we call smp_send_stop() which stops CPUs.
If one of these CPUs was actively running a cpufreq governor
then it may have the mutex / spinlock needed to access the main
PMIC in the system (perhaps over I2C)
3. If a machine needs access to the main PMIC in order to shutdown
then it will never get it since the mutex was lost when the other
CPU stopped.
4. We'll hang (possibly eventually hitting the hard lockup detector).
Let's avoid the problem by stopping the cpufreq governor at shutdown,
which is a sensible thing to do anyway.

Currently there is no callback for cpufreq drivers which is called once the
policy is ready to be used. There are some requirements where such a callback is
required.
One of them is registering a cooling device with the help of
of_cpufreq_cooling_register(). This routine tries to get 'struct cpufreq_policy'
for CPUs which isn't yet initialed at the time ->init() is called and so we face
issues while registering the cooling device.
Because we can't register cooling device from ->init(), we need a callback that
is called after the policy is ready to be used and hence we introduce ->ready()
callback.

CPU maximum frequency dynamically because of board design.
So if the user space access happens and some driver is capping
the cpu frequency at the same time, the user_policy->(max|min)
is overridden by the capped value, and that's not expected by
the user space. And if the user space is not invoked again,
the CPU will always be capped by the user_policy->(max|min)
even no drivers limit the CPU frequency any more.
This patch preserves the user specified min/max settings, so that
every time the cpufreq policy is updated, the new max/min can
be re-evaluated correctly based on the user's expection and
the present device drivers' status.

When resuming from s2ram on an SMP system without cpufreq operating
points (e.g. there's no "operating-points" property for the CPU node in
DT, or the platform doesn't use DT yet), the kernel crashes when

Currently the core does not expose scaling_cur_freq for set_policy()
drivers this breaks some userspace monitoring tools.
Change the core to expose this file for all drivers and if the
set_policy() driver supports the get() callback use it to retrieve the
current frequency.

This commit extends the cpufreq_driver structure with an additional
'void *driver_data' field that can be filled by the ->probe() function
of a cpufreq driver to pass additional custom information to the
driver itself.
A new function called cpufreq_get_driver_data() is added to allow a
cpufreq driver to retrieve those driver data, since they are typically
needed from a cpufreq_policy->init() callback, which does not have
access to the cpufreq_driver structure. This function call is similar
to the existing cpufreq_get_current_driver() function call.

Commit 8e30444e15 ("cpufreq: fix cpufreq suspend/resume for intel_pstate")
introduced a bug where the governors wouldn't be stopped anymore for
->target{_index}() drivers during suspend. This happens because
'cpufreq_suspended' is updated before stopping the governors during suspend
and due to this __cpufreq_governor() would return early due to this check:
/* Don't start any governor operations if we are entering suspend */
if (cpufreq_suspended)
return 0;

The kernel used to contain two functions for length-delimited,
case-insensitive string comparison, strnicmp with correct semantics
and a slightly buggy strncasecmp. The latter is the POSIX name, so
strnicmp was renamed to strncasecmp, and strnicmp made into a wrapper
for the new strncasecmp to avoid breaking existing users.
To allow the compat wrapper strnicmp to be removed at some point in
the future, and to avoid the extra indirection cost, do
s/strnicmp/strncasecmp/g.

Commit 367dc4aa93 ("cpufreq: Add stop CPU callback to
cpufreq_driver interface") introduced the stop CPU callback for
intel_pstate drivers. During the CPU_DOWN_PREPARE stage, this
callback is invoked so that drivers can take some action on the
pstate of the cpu before it is taken offline. This callback was
assumed to be useful only for those drivers which have implemented
the set_policy CPU callback because they have no other way to take
action about the cpufreq of a CPU which is being hotplugged out
except in the exit callback which is called very late in the offline
process.
The drivers which implement the target/target_index callbacks were
expected to take care of requirements like the ones that commit
367dc4aa addresses in the GOV_STOP notification event. But there
are disadvantages to restricting the usage of stop CPU callback
to cpufreq drivers that implement the set_policy callbacks and who
want to take explicit action on the setting the cpufreq during a
hotplug operation.
1.GOV_STOP gets called for every CPU offline and drivers would usually
want to take action when the last cpu in the policy->cpus mask
is taken offline. As long as there is more than one cpu in the
policy->cpus mask, cpufreq core itself makes sure that the freq
for the other cpus in this mask is set according to the maximum load.
This is sensible and drivers which implement the target_index callback
would mostly not want to modify that. However the cpufreq core leaves a
loose end when the cpu in the policy->cpus mask is the last one to go offline;
it does nothing explicit to the frequency of the core. Drivers may need
a way to take some action here and stop CPU callback mechanism is the
best way to do it today.
2. We cannot implement driver specific actions in the GOV_STOP mechanism.
So we will need another driver callback which is invoked from here which is
unnecessary.
Therefore this patch extends the usage of stop CPU callback to be used
by all cpufreq drivers as long as they have this callback implemented
and irrespective of whether they are set_policy/target_index drivers.
The assumption is if the drivers find the GOV_STOP path to be a suitable
way of implementing what they want to do with the freq of the cpu
going offine,they will not implement the stop CPU callback at all.
