The TEO (Timer Events Oriented) cpuidle governor uses several most
recent idle duration values for a given CPU to refine the idle state
selection in case the previous long-term trends have not been
followed recently and a new trend appears to be forming. That is
done by computing the average of the most recent idle duration
values falling below the time till the next timer event ("sleep
length"), provided that they are the majority of the most recent
idle duration values taken into account, and using it as the new
expected idle duration value.
However, idle state selection based on that value may not be optimal,
because the average does not really indicate which of the idle states
with target residencies less than or equal to it is likely to be the
best fit.
Thus, instead of computing the average, make the governor carry out
computations based on the distribution of the most recent idle
duration values among the bins corresponding to different idle
states. Namely, if the majority of the most recent idle duration
values taken into consideration are less than the current sleep
length (which means that the CPU is likely to wake up early), find
the idle state closest to the "candidate" one "matching" the sleep
length whose target residency is less than or equal to the majority
of the most recent idle duration values that have fallen below the
current sleep length (which means that it is likely to be "shallow
enough" this time).

Two aspects of the current main idle state selection logic in the
TEO (Timer Events Oriented) cpuidle governor are quite questionable.
First of all, the "hits" and "misses" metrics used by it are only
updated for a given idle state if the time till the next timer event
("sleep length") is between the target residency of that state and
the target residency of the next one. Consequently, they are likely
to become stale if the sleep length tends to fall outside that
interval which increases the likelihood of subomtimal idle state
selection.
Second, the decision on whether or not to select the idle state
"matching" the sleep length is based on the metrics collected for
that state alone, whereas in principle the metrics collected for
the other idle states should be taken into consideration when that
decision is made. For example, if the measured idle duration is less
than the target residency of the idle state "matching" the sleep
length, then it is also less than the target residency of any deeper
idle state and that should be taken into account when considering
whether or not to select any of those states, but currently it is
not.
In order to address the above shortcomings, modify the main idle
state selection logic in the TEO governor to take the metrics
collected for all of the idle states into account when deciding
whether or not to select the one "matching" the sleep length.
Moreover, drop the "misses" metric that becomes redundant after the
above change and rename the "early_hits" metric to "intercepts" so
that its role is better reflected by its name (the idea being that
if a CPU wakes up earlier than indicated by the sleep length, then
it must be a result of a non-timer interrupt that "intercepts" the
CPU).
Also rename the states[] array in struct struct teo_cpu to
state_bins[] to avoid confusing it with the states[] array in
struct cpuidle_driver and update the documentation to match the
new code (and make it more comprehensive while at it).

If the time till the next timer event is shorter than the target
residency of the first idle state (state 0), the TEO governor does
not update its metrics for any idle states, but arguably it should
record a "hit" for idle state 0 in that case, so modify it to do
that.
Accordingly, also make it record an "early hit" for idle state 0 if
the measured idle duration is less than its target residency, which
allows one branch more to be dropped from teo_update().

If the current state with the maximum "early hits" metric in
teo_select() is also the one "matching" the expected idle duration,
it will be used as the candidate one for selection even if its
"misses" metric is greater than its "hits" metric, which is not
correct.
In that case, the candidate state should be shallower than the
current one and its "early hits" metric should be the maximum
among the idle states shallower than the current one.
To make that happen, modify teo_select() to save the index of
the state whose "early hits" metric is the maximum for the
range of states below the current one and go back to that state
if it turns out that the current one should be rejected.

Currently, the cpuidle subsystem uses microseconds as the unit of
time which (among other things) causes the idle loop to incur some
integer division overhead for no clear benefit.
In order to allow cpuidle to measure time in nanoseconds, add two
new fields, exit_latency_ns and target_residency_ns, to represent the
exit latency and target residency of an idle state in nanoseconds,
respectively, to struct cpuidle_state and initialize them with the
help of the corresponding values in microseconds provided by drivers.
Additionally, change cpuidle_governor_latency_req() to return the
idle state exit latency constraint in nanoseconds.
Also meeasure idle state residency (last_residency_ns in struct
cpuidle_device and time_ns in struct cpuidle_driver) in nanoseconds
and update the cpuidle core and governors accordingly.
However, the menu governor still computes typical intervals in
microseconds to avoid integer overflows.

There are two reasons why CPU idle states may be disabled: either
because the driver has disabled them or because they have been
disabled by user space via sysfs.
In the former case, the state's "disabled" flag is set once during
the initialization of the driver and it is never cleared later (it
is read-only effectively). In the latter case, the "disable" field
of the given state's cpuidle_state_usage struct is set and it may be
changed via sysfs. Thus checking whether or not an idle state has
been disabled involves reading these two flags every time.
In order to avoid the additional check of the state's "disabled" flag
(which is effectively read-only anyway), use the value of it at the
init time to set a (new) flag in the "disable" field of that state's
cpuidle_state_usage structure and use the sysfs interface to
manipulate another (new) flag in it. This way the state is disabled
whenever the "disable" field of its cpuidle_state_usage structure is
nonzero, whatever the reason, and it is the only place to look into
to check whether or not the state has been disabled.

The TEO governor uses idle duration "bins" defined in accordance with
the CPU idle states table provided by the driver, so that each "bin"
covers the idle duration range between the target residency of the
idle state corresponding to it and the target residency of the closest
deeper idle state. The governor collects statistics for each bin
regardless of whether or not the idle state corresponding to it is
currently enabled.
In particular, the "early hits" metric measures the likelihood of a
situation in which the idle duration measured after wakeup falls into
to given bin, but the time till the next timer (sleep length) falls
into a bin corresponding to one of the deeper idle states. It is
used when the "hits" and "misses" metrics indicate that the state
"matching" the sleep length should not be selected, so that the state
with the maximum "early hits" value is selected instead of it.
If the idle state corresponding to the given bin is disabled, it
cannot be selected and if it turns out to be the one that should be
selected, a shallower idle state needs to be used instead of it.
Nevertheless, the metrics collected for the bin corresponding to it
are still valid and need to be taken into account as though that
state had not been disabled.
As far as the "early hits" metric is concerned, teo_select() tries to
take disabled states into account, but the state index corresponding
to the maximum "early hits" value computed by it may be incorrect.
Namely, it always uses the index of the previous maximum "early hits"
state then, but there may be enabled idle states closer to the
disabled one in question. In particular, if the current candidate
state (whose index is the idx value) is closer to the disabled one
and the "early hits" value of the disabled state is greater than the
current maximum, the index of the current candidate state (idx)
should replace the "maximum early hits state" index.
Modify the code to handle that case correctly.

Right now, guest current governors have the following ratings:
* ladder -> 10
* teo -> 19
* menu -> 20
* haltpoll -> 21
* ladder + nohz=off -> 25
haltpoll governor got introduced and it is now the default governor given
its highest rating -- with ladder+nohz being the exception -- regardless of
idle driver in the guest. An example of an undesirable case is x86 KVM
guests with MWAIT which have intel_idle registered first, and consequently
will have haltpoll be used as governor which would get limited to a poll
state and state 1 and the other states wouldn't get used.
To keep the previous defaults we decrease rating of governor to 9 (below
current lowest rating) and thus rely on @governor switch on
cpuidle_register_driver() to tie in haltpoll idle driver and governor
together.

The TEO goveror prevents the scheduler tick from being stopped (unless
stopped already) if there is a PM QoS latency constraint for the given
CPU and the target residency of the deepest idle state matching that
constraint is below the tick boundary.
However, that is problematic if CPUs with PM QoS latency constraints
are idle for long times, because it effectively causes the tick to
run on them all the time which is wasteful. [It is also confusing
and questionable if they are full dynticks CPUs.]
To address that issue, modify the TEO governor to carry out the
entire search for the most suitable idle state (from the target
residency perspective) even if a latency constraint is present,
to allow it to determine the expected idle duration in all cases.
Also, when using the last several measured idle duration values
to refine the idle state selection, make it compare those values
with the current expected idle duration value (instead of
comparing them with the target residency of the idle state
selected so far) which should prevent the tick from being
retained when it makes sense to stop it sometimes (especially
in the presence of PM QoS latency constraints).

The cpuidle_haltpoll governor, in conjunction with the haltpoll cpuidle
driver, allows guest vcpus to poll for a specified amount of time before
halting.
This provides the following benefits to host side polling:
1) The POLL flag is set while polling is performed, which allows
a remote vCPU to avoid sending an IPI (and the associated
cost of handling the IPI) when performing a wakeup.
2) The VM-exit cost can be avoided.
The downside of guest side polling is that polling is performed
even with other runnable tasks in the host.
Results comparing halt_poll_ns and server/client application
where a small packet is ping-ponged:
host --> 31.33
halt_poll_ns=300000 / no guest busy spin --> 33.40 (93.8%)

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.

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 372ba8cb46 (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
get_typical_interval() directly, so do that and drop the now
redundant expected_interval variable.

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 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).

The predicted_us field in struct menu_device is only accessed in

With that, stop using expected_interval instead of predicted_us to
store the new predicted idle duration value if it is set to the
selected state's target residency which is quite confusing.

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 5ef499cd57 (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.]

Commit 87c9fe6ee4 (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.
