The cpupower tool, when compiled against libcpupower.so fail's to run as
the linker file path's are missing during compilation. So added changes
in the Makefile to run cpupower tool, which helps us run the tool
without doing a 'make install'.

sysfs_get_idlestate_count() returns an unsigned int. Returning -ENODEV
is not the right thing to do here, and in any case is handled the same
way as if there are no states found.

Some operations, like frequency-set, need root privileges. However,
the way that this is detected is not correct. The getuid() is called,
while in fact geteuid() should be. This way we can allow
distributions or users to set SETUID flags on the cpupower binary if
they want to and let regular users change the cpu frequency governor.

This reverts commit 16b7c275c0.
My previous commit 16b7c275c0 ("tools: cpupower: fix return checks for
sysfs_get_idlestate_count()") was not correct. After looking
at the changelog for cpupower I noticed that Thomas had changed the return of
sysfs_get_idlestate_count() to an unsigned int to simplify the code. The
problem is really that both he (in his original change) and I (in my new
change) missed the obvious that sysfs_get_idlestate_count()
can't return -ENODEV. It should just return 0 for "no c-states".

Red Hat and Fedora use a bug reporting tool that gathers data about
"broken" systems called sosreport. Among other things, it includes the
output of 'cpupower idle-info'. Executing 'cpupower idle-info' on a
system that has cpuidle disabled via 'cpuidle.off=1' results in a 300
second hang in the cpupower application.
ie)
[root@intel-brickland-05]# cpupower idle-info
Could not determine cpuidle driver
Analyzing CPU 0:
Number of idle states: -19
[hang]
The problem is that the cpupower code only checks for a zero return from
sysfs_get_idlestate_count(). The function can return -ENODEV (-19) as
above. This patch fixes callers to sysfs_get_idlestate_count() to check
the right return values.

Resolved several minor errors in prepare_config() and made some additional improvements.
Earlier, the risk of file stream that was not closed. Misuse of strncpy, and the use of strncmp with strlen that makes it pointless.
I also check that sscanf has been successful, otherwise continue to the next line. And minimized the use of magic numbers.

The command "cpupower frequency-info" can be used when using cpupower to
monitor and test processor behaviour to determine if the processor is
behaving as expected. This data can be compared to the output of
/proc/cpuinfo or the output of
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies
to determine if the cpu is in an expected state.
When doing this I noticed comparison test failures due to the way the
data is displayed in cpupower. For example,
[root@intel-s3e37-02 cpupower]# cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies
2262000 2261000 2128000 1995000 1862000 1729000 1596000 1463000 1330000
1197000 1064000
compared to
[root@intel-s3e37-02 cpupower]# cpupower frequency-info
analyzing CPU 0:

CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: 0

shows very different values for the available frequency steps. The cpupower
output rounds off values at 2 decimal points and this causes problems with
test scripts. For example, with the data above,
1.064 is 1.06
1.197 is 1.20
1.596 is 1.60
1.995 is 2.00
2.128 is 2.13
and most confusingly,
2.261 is 2.26
2.262 is 2.26
Truncating these values serves no real purpose other than making the output
pretty. Since the default has been to round off these values I am adding
a -n/--no-rounding option to the cpupower utility that will display the
data without rounding off the still significant digits.

If a user calls 'cpupower set --perf-bias 15', the process will end with
a SIGSEGV in libc because cpupower-set passes a NULL optarg to the atoi
call. This is because the getopt_long structure currently has all of
the options as having an optional_argument when they really have a
required argument. We change the structure to use required_argument to
match the short options and it resolves the issue.

Replace direct inclusions of <acpi/acpi.h>, <acpi/acpi_bus.h> and
<acpi/acpi_drivers.h>, which are incorrect, with <linux/acpi.h>
inclusions and remove some inclusions of those files that aren't
necessary.
First of all, <acpi/acpi.h>, <acpi/acpi_bus.h> and <acpi/acpi_drivers.h>
should not be included directly from any files that are built for
CONFIG_ACPI unset, because that generally leads to build warnings about
undefined symbols in !CONFIG_ACPI builds. For CONFIG_ACPI set,
<linux/acpi.h> includes those files and for CONFIG_ACPI unset it
provides stub ACPI symbols to be used in that case.
Second, there are ordering dependencies between those files that always
have to be met. Namely, it is required that <acpi/acpi_bus.h> be included
prior to <acpi/acpi_drivers.h> so that the acpi_pci_root declarations the
latter depends on are always there. And <acpi/acpi.h> which provides
basic ACPICA type declarations should always be included prior to any other
ACPI headers in CONFIG_ACPI builds. That also is taken care of including
<linux/acpi.h> as appropriate.

If an MSR based monitor is run in parallel this is not needed. This is the
default case on all/most Intel machines.
But when only sysfs info is read via cpupower monitor -m Idle_Stats (typically
the case for non root users) or when other monitors are PCI based (AMD),
Idle_Stats, read from sysfs can be totally bogus:
cpupower monitor -m Idle_Stats
PKG |CORE|CPU | POLL | C1-N | C3-N | C6-N
0| 0| 0| 0.00| 0.00| 0.24| 99.81

0| 18| 76| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00
...
With the -c option all cores are woken up and the kernel
did update cpuidle statistics before reading out sysfs.
This causes some overhead. Therefore avoid if possible, use
if needed:
cpupower monitor -c -m Idle_Stats

The pkgs member of cpupower_topology is being used as the number of
cpu packages. As the comment in get_cpu_topology notes, the package ids
are not guaranteed to be contiguous. So, simply setting pkgs to the value
of the highest physical_package_id doesn't actually provide a count of
the number of cpu packages. Instead, calculate pkgs by setting it to
the number of distinct physical_packge_id values which is pretty easy
to do after the core_info structs are sorted. Calculating pkgs this
way also has the nice benefit of getting rid of a sign comparison warning
that GCC 4.6 was reporting.

The cpu_info member of cpupower_topology was being declared as an unnamed
structure. This member was then being malloced using the size of the
parent cpupower_topology * the number of cpus. This works
because cpu_info is smaller than cpupower_topology. However, there is
no guarantee that will always be the case. Making cpu_info its own
top level structure (named cpuid_core_info) allows for mallocing the actual
size of this structure. This also lets us get rid of a redefinition of
the structure in topology.c with slightly different field names.

The correct syntax for gcc -x is "gcc -x assembler", not
"gcc -xassembler". Even though the latter happens to work, the former
is what is documented in the manual page and thus what gcc wrappers
such as icecream do expect.
This isn't a cosmetic change. The missing space prevents icecream from
recognizing compilation tasks it can't handle, leading to silent kernel
miscompilations.
Besides me, credits go to Michael Matz and Dirk Mueller for
investigating the miscompilation issue and tracking it down to this
incorrect -x parameter syntax.

It's been broken forever (i.e. it's not scheduling in a power
aware fashion), as reported by Suresh and others sending
patches, and nobody cares enough to fix it properly ...
so remove it to make space free for something better.
There's various problems with the code as it stands today, first
and foremost the user interface which is bound to topology
levels and has multiple values per level. This results in a
state explosion which the administrator or distro needs to
master and almost nobody does.
Furthermore large configuration state spaces aren't good, it
means the thing doesn't just work right because it's either
under so many impossibe to meet constraints, or even if
there's an achievable state workloads have to be aware of
it precisely and can never meet it for dynamic workloads.
So pushing this kind of decision to user-space was a bad idea
even with a single knob - it's exponentially worse with knobs
on every node of the topology.
There is a proposal to replace the user interface with a single
3 state knob:
sched_balance_policy := { performance, power, auto }
where 'auto' would be the preferred default which looks at things
like Battery/AC mode and possible cpufreq state or whatever the hw
exposes to show us power use expectations - but there's been no
progress on it in the past many months.
Aside from that, the actual implementation of the various knobs
is known to be broken. There have been sporadic attempts at
fixing things but these always stop short of reaching a mergable
state.
Therefore this wholesale removal with the hopes of spurring
people who care to come forward once again and work on a
coherent replacement.

This patch allows cpupower tool to generate its output files in a
seperate directory. This is now possible by passing the 'O=<path>' to
the command line.
This can be usefull for a normal user if the kernel source code is
located in a read only location.
This is patch stole some bits of the perf makefile.

Use the '-p' and '-o' switches to specify the pathname of the output
file to xgettext(1). This avoids to move manually the output file if
xgettext(1) succeeds.

UTIL_BINS and IDLE_OBJS variables are not defined at all, so
there's no need to remove their content from the 'clean' target.
