cpufreq: ondemand: update sampling rate only on right CPUs Fix cpufreq_gov_ondemand to skip CPU where another governor is used. The bug present itself as NULL pointer access on the mutex_lock() call, an can be reproduced on an SMP machine by setting the default governor to anything other than ondemand, setting a single CPU's governor to ondemand, then changing the sample rate by writing on: > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand/sampling_rate Backtrace: Nov 26 17:36:54 balto kernel: [ 839.585241] BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at (null) Nov 26 17:36:54 balto kernel: [ 839.585311] IP: [<ffffffff8174e082>] __mutex_lock_slowpath+0xb2/0x170 [snip] Nov 26 17:36:54 balto kernel: [ 839.587005] Call Trace: Nov 26 17:36:54 balto kernel: [ 839.587030] [<ffffffff8174da82>] mutex_lock+0x22/0x40 Nov 26 17:36:54 balto kernel: [ 839.587067] [<ffffffff81610b8f>] store_sampling_rate+0xbf/0x150 Nov 26 17:36:54 balto kernel: [ 839.587110] [<ffffffff81031e9c>] ? __do_page_fault+0x1cc/0x4c0 Nov 26 17:36:54 balto kernel: [ 839.587153] [<ffffffff813309bf>] kobj_attr_store+0xf/0x20 Nov 26 17:36:54 balto kernel: [ 839.587192] [<ffffffff811bb62d>] sysfs_write_file+0xcd/0x140 Nov 26 17:36:54 balto kernel: [ 839.587234] [<ffffffff8114c12c>] vfs_write+0xac/0x180 Nov 26 17:36:54 balto kernel: [ 839.587271] [<ffffffff8114c472>] sys_write+0x52/0xa0 Nov 26 17:36:54 balto kernel: [ 839.587306] [<ffffffff810321ce>] ? do_page_fault+0xe/0x10 Nov 26 17:36:54 balto kernel: [ 839.587345] [<ffffffff81751202>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b Signed-off-by: Fabio Baltieri <fabio.baltieri@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

[CPUFREQ][2/2] ondemand: updated add powersave_bias tunable ondemand selects the minimum frequency that can retire a workload with negligible idle time -- ideally resulting in the highest performance/power efficiency with negligible performance impact. But on some systems and some workloads, this algorithm is more performance biased than necessary, and de-tuning it a bit to allow some performance impact can save measurable power. This patch adds a "powersave_bias" tunable to ondemand to allow it to reduce its target frequency by a specified percent. By default, the powersave_bias is 0 and has no effect. powersave_bias is in units of 0.1%, so it has an effective range of 1 through 1000, resulting in 0.1% to 100% impact. In practice, users will not be able to detect a difference between 0.1% increments, but 1.0% increments turned out to be too large. Also, the max value of 1000 (100%) would simply peg the system in its deepest power saving P-state, unless the processor really has a hardware P-state at 0Hz:-) For example, If ondemand requests 2.0GHz based on utilization, and powersave_bias=100, this code will knock 10% off the target and seek a target of 1.8GHz instead of 2.0GHz until the next sampling. If 1.8 is an exact match with an hardware frequency we use it, otherwise we average our time between the frequency next higher than 1.8 and next lower than 1.8. Note that a user or administrative program can change powersave_bias at run-time depending on how they expect the system to be used.

cpufreq: ondemand: Eliminate the deadband effect Currently, ondemand calculates the target frequency proportional to load using the formula: Target frequency = C * load where C = policy->cpuinfo.max_freq / 100 Though, in many cases, the minimum available frequency is pretty high and the above calculation introduces a dead band from load 0 to 100 * policy->cpuinfo.min_freq / policy->cpuinfo.max_freq where the target frequency is always calculated to less than policy->cpuinfo.min_freq and the minimum frequency is selected. For example: on Intel i7-3770 @ 3.4GHz the policy->cpuinfo.min_freq = 1600000 and the policy->cpuinfo.max_freq = 3400000 (without turbo). Thus, the CPU starts to scale up at a load above 47. On quad core 1500MHz Krait the policy->cpuinfo.min_freq = 384000 and the policy->cpuinfo.max_freq = 1512000. Thus, the CPU starts to scale at load above 25. Change the calculation of target frequency to eliminate the above effect using the formula: Target frequency = A + B * load where A = policy->cpuinfo.min_freq and B = (policy->cpuinfo.max_freq - policy->cpuinfo->min_freq) / 100 This will map load values 0 to 100 linearly to cpuinfo.min_freq to cpuinfo.max_freq. Also, use the CPUFREQ_RELATION_C in __cpufreq_driver_target to select the closest frequency in frequency_table. This is necessary to avoid selection of minimum frequency only when load equals to 0. It will also help for selection of frequencies using a more 'fair' criterion. Tables below show the difference in selected frequency for specific values of load without and with this patch.

[CPUFREQ][2/2] ondemand: updated add powersave_bias tunable ondemand selects the minimum frequency that can retire a workload with negligible idle time -- ideally resulting in the highest performance/power efficiency with negligible performance impact. But on some systems and some workloads, this algorithm is more performance biased than necessary, and de-tuning it a bit to allow some performance impact can save measurable power. This patch adds a "powersave_bias" tunable to ondemand to allow it to reduce its target frequency by a specified percent. By default, the powersave_bias is 0 and has no effect. powersave_bias is in units of 0.1%, so it has an effective range of 1 through 1000, resulting in 0.1% to 100% impact. In practice, users will not be able to detect a difference between 0.1% increments, but 1.0% increments turned out to be too large. Also, the max value of 1000 (100%) would simply peg the system in its deepest power saving P-state, unless the processor really has a hardware P-state at 0Hz:-) For example, If ondemand requests 2.0GHz based on utilization, and powersave_bias=100, this code will knock 10% off the target and seek a target of 1.8GHz instead of 2.0GHz until the next sampling. If 1.8 is an exact match with an hardware frequency we use it, otherwise we average our time between the frequency next higher than 1.8 and next lower than 1.8. Note that a user or administrative program can change powersave_bias at run-time depending on how they expect the system to be used.
