Thomas Renninger 99b7250844 ACPI processor hotplug: Delay acpi_processor_start() call for hotplugged cores
Delay the setting up of features (cpuidle, throttling by calling
acpi_processor_start()) to the time when the hotplugged
core got onlined the first time and got fully
initialized.

Thomas Renninger 5c2a9f06a9 intel idle: Make idle driver more robust
kvm -cpu host passes the original cpuid info to the guest.

Latest kvm version seem to return true for mwait_leaf cpuid
function on recent Intel CPUs. But it does not return mwait
C-states (mwait_substates), instead zero is returned.

While real CPUs seem to always return non-zero values, the intel
idle driver should not get active in kvm (mwait_substates == 0)
case and bail out.
Otherwise a Null pointer exception will happen later when the
cpuidle subsystem tries to get active:

Yanmin Zhang 63ff07beae intel_idle: remove redundant local_irq_disable() call
irq disabling happens earlier in process_32.c:cpu_idle.  Basically,
cpuidle_state->enter is called, cpu irq is disabled.  cpuidle_state->enter
would turn on irq when exiting.

intel_idle doesn't follow this assumption.  Although it doesn't cause real
issue, it misleads developers.  Remove the call to local_irq_disable() at
entry.

Shaohua Li 39a74fdedd intel_idle: fix API misuse
smp_call_function() only lets all other CPUs execute a specific function,
while we expect all CPUs do in intel_idle.  Without the fix, we could have
one cpu which has auto_demotion enabled or has no broadcast timer setup.
Usually we don't see impact because auto demotion just harms power and the
intel_idle init is called in CPU 0, where boradcast timer delivers
interrupt, but this still could be a problem.

Deepthi Dharwar 46bcfad7a8 cpuidle: Single/Global registration of idle states
This patch makes the cpuidle_states structure global (single copy)
instead of per-cpu. The statistics needed on per-cpu basis
by the governor are kept per-cpu. This simplifies the cpuidle
subsystem as state registration is done by single cpu only.
Having single copy of cpuidle_states saves memory. Rare case
of asymmetric C-states can be handled within the cpuidle driver
and architectures such as POWER do not have asymmetric C-states.

Having single/global registration of all the idle states,
dynamic C-state transitions on x86 are handled by
the boot cpu. Here, the boot cpu  would disable all the devices,
re-populate the states and later enable all the devices,
irrespective of the cpu that would receive the notification first.

Deepthi Dharwar 4202735e8a cpuidle: Split cpuidle_state structure and move per-cpu statistics fields
This is the first step towards global registration of cpuidle
states. The statistics used primarily by the governor are per-cpu
and have to be split from rest of the fields inside cpuidle_state,
which would be made global i.e. single copy. The driver_data field
is also per-cpu and moved.

Deepthi Dharwar e978aa7d7d cpuidle: Move dev->last_residency update to driver enter routine; remove dev->last_state
Cpuidle governor only suggests the state to enter using the
governor->select() interface, but allows the low level driver to
override the recommended state. The actual entered state
may be different because of software or hardware demotion. Software
demotion is done by the back-end cpuidle driver and can be accounted
correctly. Current cpuidle code uses last_state field to capture the
actual state entered and based on that updates the statistics for the
state entered.

Ideally the driver enter routine should update the counters,
and it should return the state actually entered rather than the time
spent there. The generic cpuidle code should simply handle where
the counters live in the sysfs namespace, not updating the counters.

Len Brown 14796fca2b intel_idle: disable NHM/WSM HW C-state auto-demotion
Hardware C-state auto-demotion is a mechanism where the HW overrides
the OS C-state request, instead demoting to a shallower state,
which is less expensive, but saves less power.

Modern Linux should generally get exactly the states it requests.
In particular, when a CPU is taken off-line, it must not be demoted, else
it can prevent the entire package from reaching deep C-states.

Thomas Renninger f77cfe4ea2 cpuidle/x86/perf: fix power:cpu_idle double end events and throw cpu_idle events from the cpuidle layer
Currently intel_idle and acpi_idle driver show double cpu_idle "exit idle"
events -> this patch fixes it and makes cpu_idle events throwing less complex.

It also introduces cpu_idle events for all architectures which use
the cpuidle subsystem, namely:
  - arch/arm/mach-at91/cpuidle.c
  - arch/arm/mach-davinci/cpuidle.c
  - arch/arm/mach-kirkwood/cpuidle.c
  - arch/arm/mach-omap2/cpuidle34xx.c
  - arch/drivers/acpi/processor_idle.c (for all cases, not only mwait)
  - arch/x86/kernel/process.c (did throw events before, but was a mess)
  - drivers/idle/intel_idle.c (did throw events before)

Convention should be:
Fire cpu_idle events inside the current pm_idle function (not somewhere
down the the callee tree) to keep things easy.

Current possible pm_idle functions in X86:
c1e_idle, poll_idle, cpuidle_idle_call, mwait_idle, default_idle
-> this is really easy is now.

This affects userspace:
The type field of the cpu_idle power event can now direclty get
mapped to:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/cpuidle/stateX/{name,desc,usage,time,...}
instead of throwing very CPU/mwait specific values.
This change is not visible for the intel_idle driver.
For the acpi_idle driver it should only be visible if the vendor
misses out C-states in his BIOS.
Another (perf timechart) patch reads out cpuidle info of cpu_idle
events from:
/sys/.../cpuidle/stateX/*, then the cpuidle events are mapped
to the correct C-/cpuidle state again, even if e.g. vendors miss
out C-states in their BIOS and for example only export C1 and C3.
-> everything is fine.

Thomas Renninger d18960494f ACPI, intel_idle: Cleanup idle= internal variables
Having four variables for the same thing:
  idle_halt, idle_nomwait, force_mwait and boot_option_idle_overrides
is rather confusing and unnecessary complex.

if idle= boot param is passed, only set up one variable:
boot_option_idle_overrides

Introduces following functional changes/fixes:
  - intel_idle driver does not register if any idle=xy
    boot param is passed.
  - processor_idle.c will also not register a cpuidle driver
    and get active if idle=halt is passed.
    Before a cpuidle driver with one (C1, halt) state got registered
    Now the default_idle function will be used which finally uses
    the same idle call to enter sleep state (safe_halt()), but
    without registering a whole cpuidle driver.

That means idle= param will always avoid cpuidle drivers to register
with one exception (same behavior as before):
idle=nomwait
may still register acpi_idle cpuidle driver, but C1 will not use
mwait, but hlt. This can be a workaround for IO based deeper sleep
states where C1 mwait causes problems.

Have now a replacement (but we are still keeping the old
tracepoints for compatibility):

  power:cpu_idle

and
  power:power_frequency

is replaced with:
  power:cpu_frequency

power:machine_suspend is newly introduced.

Jean Pihet has a patch integrated into the generic layer
(kernel/power/suspend.c) which will make use of it.

the type= field got removed from both, it was never
used and the type is differed by the event type itself.

perf timechart userspace tool gets adjusted in a separate patch.

Len Brown 0394c6676e intel_idle: delete power_policy modparam, and choose substate functions
The idea behind power policy was that it would start off as a modparam,
and then hook into the new "global" in-kernel power vs energy tunable.
But that tunable isn't happening, so delete the hook here.

With the policy hook gone, the sub-state choice functions
do not do anything useful, so delete them from the critical path.

To handle sub-states in the future, we will advertise them
with dedicated cpuidle_state entries.  That is necessary
because some of the sub-states will have substantially different
properties than their peer sub-states.

Len Brown 2671717265 intel_idle: native hardware cpuidle driver for latest Intel processors
This EXPERIMENTAL driver supersedes acpi_idle on
Intel Atom Processors, Intel Core i3/i5/i7 Processors
and associated Intel Xeon processors.

It does not support the Intel Core2 processor or earlier.

For kernels configured with ACPI, CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=y
allows intel_idle to probe before the ACPI processor driver.
Booting with "intel_idle.max_cstate=0" disables intel_idle
and the system will fall back on ACPI's "acpi_idle".

Typical Linux distributions load ACPI processor module early,
making CONFIG_INTEL_IDLE=m not easily useful on ACPI platforms.

intel_idle probes all processors at module_init time.
Processors that are hot-added later will be limited
to using C1 in idle.
