The cpuidle sysfs code is designed to have a single instance of per
CPU cpuidle directory. It is not possible to remove the sysfs entry
and create it again. This is not a problem with the current code but
future changes will add CPU hotplug support to enable/disable the
device, so it will need to remove the sysfs entry like other
subsystems do. That won't be possible without this change, because
the kobj is a static object which can't be reused for
kobj_init_and_add().
Add cpuidle_device_kobj to be allocated dynamically when
adding/removing a sysfs entry which is consistent with the other
cpuidle's sysfs entries.
An added benefit is that the sysfs code is now more self-contained
and the includes needed for sysfs can be moved from cpuidle.h
directly into sysfs.c so as to reduce the total number of headers
dragged along with cpuidle.h.

Commit bf4d1b5 (cpuidle: support multiple drivers) introduced support
for using multiple cpuidle drivers at the same time. It added a
couple of new APIs to register the driver per CPU, but that led to
some unnecessary code complexity related to the kernel config options
deciding whether or not the multiple driver support is enabled. The
code has to work as it did before when the multiple driver support is
not enabled and the multiple driver support has to be compatible with
the previously existing API.
Remove the new API, not used by any driver in the tree yet (but
needed for the HMP cpuidle drivers that will be submitted soon), and
add a new cpumask pointer to the cpuidle driver structure that will
point to the mask of CPUs handled by the given driver. That will
allow the cpuidle_[un]register_driver() API to be used for the
multiple driver support along with the cpuidle_[un]register()
functions added recently.

Pull idle update from Len Brown:
"Add support for new Haswell-ULT CPU idle power states"
* 'release' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lenb/linux:
intel_idle: initial C8, C9, C10 support
tools/power turbostat: display C8, C9, C10 residency
The usual scheme to initialize a cpuidle driver on a SMP is:
cpuidle_register_driver(drv);
for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) {
device = &per_cpu(cpuidle_dev, cpu);
cpuidle_register_device(device);
}
This code is duplicated in each cpuidle driver.
On UP systems, it is done this way:
cpuidle_register_driver(drv);
device = &per_cpu(cpuidle_dev, cpu);
cpuidle_register_device(device);
On UP, the macro 'for_each_cpu' does one iteration:
#define for_each_cpu(cpu, mask) \
for ((cpu) = 0; (cpu) < 1; (cpu)++, (void)mask)
Hence, the initialization loop is the same for UP than SMP.
Beside, we saw different bugs / mis-initialization / return code unchecked in
the different drivers, the code is duplicated including bugs. After fixing all
these ones, it appears the initialization pattern is the same for everyone.
Please note, some drivers are doing dev->state_count = drv->state_count. This is
not necessary because it is done by the cpuidle_enable_device function in the
cpuidle framework. This is true, until you have the same states for all your
devices. Otherwise, the 'low level' API should be used instead with the specific
initialization for the driver.
Let's add a wrapper function doing this initialization with a cpumask parameter
for the coupled idle states and use it for all the drivers.
That will save a lot of LOC, consolidate the code, and the modifications in the
future could be done in a single place. Another benefit is the consolidation of
the cpuidle_device variable which is now in the cpuidle framework and no longer
spread accross the different arch specific drivers.

When a cpu enters a deep idle state, the local timers are stopped and
the time framework falls back to the timer device used as a broadcast
timer.
The different cpuidle drivers are calling clockevents_notify ENTER/EXIT
when the idle state stops the local timer.
Add a new flag CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP which can be set by the cpuidle
drivers. If the flag is set, the cpuidle core code takes care of the
notification on behalf of the driver to avoid pointless code duplication.

We realized that the power usage field is never filled and when it
is filled for tegra, the power_specified flag is not set causing all
of these values to be reset when the driver is initialized with
set_power_state().
However, the power_specified flag can be simply removed under the
assumption that the states are always backward sorted, which is the
case with the current code.
This change allows the menu governor select function and the
cpuidle_play_dead() to be simplified. Moreover, the
set_power_states() function can removed as it does not make sense
any more.
Drop the power_specified flag from struct cpuidle_driver and make
the related changes as described above.
As a consequence, this also fixes the bug where on the dynamic
C-states system, the power fields are not initialized.

With the tegra3 and the big.LITTLE [1] new architectures, several cpus
with different characteristics (latencies and states) can co-exists on the
system.
The cpuidle framework has the limitation of handling only identical cpus.
This patch removes this limitation by introducing the multiple driver support
for cpuidle.
This option is configurable at compile time and should be enabled for the
architectures mentioned above. So there is no impact for the other platforms
if the option is disabled. The option defaults to 'n'. Note the multiple drivers
support is also compatible with the existing drivers, even if just one driver is
needed, all the cpu will be tied to this driver using an extra small chunk of
processor memory.
The multiple driver support use a per-cpu driver pointer instead of a global
variable and the accessor to this variable are done from a cpu context.
In order to keep the compatibility with the existing drivers, the function
'cpuidle_register_driver' and 'cpuidle_unregister_driver' will register
the specified driver for all the cpus.
The semantic for the output of /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuidle/current_driver
remains the same except the driver name will be related to the current cpu.
The /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu[0-9]/cpuidle/driver/name files are added
allowing to read the per cpu driver name.

PM / Domains: Do not stop devices after restoring their states
PM / Domains: Use subsystem runtime suspend/resume callbacks by default
On certain bios, resume hangs if cpus are allowed to enter idle states
during suspend [1].
This was fixed in apci idle driver [2].But intel_idle driver does not
have this fix. Thus instead of replicating the fix in both the idle
drivers, or in more platform specific idle drivers if needed, the
more general cpuidle infrastructure could handle this.
A suspend callback in cpuidle_driver could handle this fix. But
a cpuidle_driver provides only basic functionalities like platform idle
state detection capability and mechanisms to support entry and exit
into CPU idle states. All other cpuidle functions are found in the
cpuidle generic infrastructure for good reason that all cpuidle
drivers, irrepective of their platforms will support these functions.
One option therefore would be to register a suspend callback in cpuidle
which handles this fix. This could be called through a PM_SUSPEND_PREPARE
notifier. But this is too generic a notfier for a driver to handle.
Also, ideally the job of cpuidle is not to handle side effects of suspend.
It should expose the interfaces which "handle cpuidle 'during' suspend"
or any other operation, which the subsystems call during that respective
operation.
The fix demands that during suspend, no cpus should be allowed to enter
deep C-states. The interface cpuidle_uninstall_idle_handler() in cpuidle
ensures that. Not just that it also kicks all the cpus which are already
in idle out of their idle states which was being done during cpu hotplug
through a CPU_DYING_FROZEN callbacks.
Now the question arises about when during suspend should
cpuidle_uninstall_idle_handler() be called. Since we are dealing with
drivers it seems best to call this function during dpm_suspend().
Delaying the call till dpm_suspend_noirq() does no harm, as long as it is
before cpu_hotplug_begin() to avoid race conditions with cpu hotpulg
operations. In dpm_suspend_noirq(), it would be wise to place this call
before suspend_device_irqs() to avoid ugly interactions with the same.
Ananlogously, during resume.

On some systems there are CPU cores located in the same power
domains as I/O devices. Then, power can only be removed from the
domain if all I/O devices in it are not in use and the CPU core
is idle. Add preliminary support for that to the generic PM domains
framework.
First, the platform is expected to provide a cpuidle driver with one
extra state designated for use with the generic PM domains code.
This state should be initially disabled and its exit_latency value
should be set to whatever time is needed to bring up the CPU core
itself after restoring power to it, not including the domain's
power on latency. Its .enter() callback should point to a procedure
that will remove power from the domain containing the CPU core at
the end of the CPU power transition.
The remaining characteristics of the extra cpuidle state, referred to
as the "domain" cpuidle state below, (e.g. power usage, target
residency) should be populated in accordance with the properties of
the hardware.
Next, the platform should execute genpd_attach_cpuidle() on the PM
domain containing the CPU core. That will cause the generic PM
domains framework to treat that domain in a special way such that:
* When all devices in the domain have been suspended and it is about
to be turned off, the states of the devices will be saved, but
power will not be removed from the domain. Instead, the "domain"
cpuidle state will be enabled so that power can be removed from
the domain when the CPU core is idle and the state has been chosen
as the target by the cpuidle governor.
* When the first I/O device in the domain is resumed and
__pm_genpd_poweron(() is called for the first time after
power has been removed from the domain, the "domain" cpuidle
state will be disabled to avoid subsequent surprise power removals
via cpuidle.
The effective exit_latency value of the "domain" cpuidle state
depends on the time needed to bring up the CPU core itself after
restoring power to it as well as on the power on latency of the
domain containing the CPU core. Thus the "domain" cpuidle state's
exit_latency has to be recomputed every time the domain's power on
latency is updated, which may happen every time power is restored
to the domain, if the measured power on latency is greater than
the latency stored in the corresponding generic_pm_domain structure.

On some ARM SMP SoCs (OMAP4460, Tegra 2, and probably more), the
cpus cannot be independently powered down, either due to
sequencing restrictions (on Tegra 2, cpu 0 must be the last to
power down), or due to HW bugs (on OMAP4460, a cpu powering up
will corrupt the gic state unless the other cpu runs a work
around). Each cpu has a power state that it can enter without
coordinating with the other cpu (usually Wait For Interrupt, or
WFI), and one or more "coupled" power states that affect blocks
shared between the cpus (L2 cache, interrupt controller, and
sometimes the whole SoC). Entering a coupled power state must
be tightly controlled on both cpus.
The easiest solution to implementing coupled cpu power states is
to hotplug all but one cpu whenever possible, usually using a
cpufreq governor that looks at cpu load to determine when to
enable the secondary cpus. This causes problems, as hotplug is an
expensive operation, so the number of hotplug transitions must be
minimized, leading to very slow response to loads, often on the
order of seconds.
This file implements an alternative solution, where each cpu will
wait in the WFI state until all cpus are ready to enter a coupled
state, at which point the coupled state function will be called
on all cpus at approximately the same time.
Once all cpus are ready to enter idle, they are woken by an smp
cross call. At this point, there is a chance that one of the
cpus will find work to do, and choose not to enter idle. A
final pass is needed to guarantee that all cpus will call the
power state enter function at the same time. During this pass,
each cpu will increment the ready counter, and continue once the
ready counter matches the number of online coupled cpus. If any
cpu exits idle, the other cpus will decrement their counter and
retry.
To use coupled cpuidle states, a cpuidle driver must:
Set struct cpuidle_device.coupled_cpus to the mask of all
coupled cpus, usually the same as cpu_possible_mask if all cpus
are part of the same cluster. The coupled_cpus mask must be
set in the struct cpuidle_device for each cpu.
Set struct cpuidle_device.safe_state to a state that is not a
coupled state. This is usually WFI.
Set CPUIDLE_FLAG_COUPLED in struct cpuidle_state.flags for each
state that affects multiple cpus.
Provide a struct cpuidle_state.enter function for each state
that affects multiple cpus. This function is guaranteed to be
called on all cpus at approximately the same time. The driver
should ensure that the cpus all abort together if any cpu tries
to abort once the function is called.
update1:
cpuidle: coupled: fix count of online cpus
online_count was never incremented on boot, and was also counting
cpus that were not part of the coupled set. Fix both issues by
introducting a new function that counts online coupled cpus, and
call it from register as well as the hotplug notifier.
update2:
cpuidle: coupled: fix decrementing ready count
cpuidle_coupled_set_not_ready sometimes refuses to decrement the
ready count in order to prevent a race condition. This makes it
unsuitable for use when finished with idle. Add a new function
cpuidle_coupled_set_done that decrements both the ready count and
waiting count, and call it after idle is complete.

Some C states of new CPU might be not good. One reason is BIOS might
configure them incorrectly. To help developers root cause it quickly, the
patch adds a new sysfs entry, so developers could disable specific C state
manually.
In addition, C state might have much impact on performance tuning, as it
takes much time to enter/exit C states, which might delay interrupt
processing. With the new debug option, developers could check if a deep C
state could impact performance and how much impact it could cause.
Also add this option in Documentation/cpuidle/sysfs.txt.

This patch enables cpuidle for pSeries and pSeries_idle is
directly called from the idle loop. As a result of pSeries_idle, cpuidle
driver registered with cpuidle subsystem comes into action. On
failure of loading of the driver or cpuidle framework default idle
is executed as part of the function. This patch
also removes the routines pseries_shared_idle_sleep and
pseries_dedicated_idle_sleep as they are now implemented as part of
pseries_idle cpuidle driver.

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.

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.

The cpuidle_device->prepare() mechanism causes updates to the
cpuidle_state[].flags, setting and clearing CPUIDLE_FLAG_IGNORE
to tell the governor not to chose a state on a per-cpu basis at
run-time. State demotion is now handled by the driver and it returns
the actual state entered. Hence, this mechanism is not required.
Also this removes per-cpu flags from cpuidle_state enabling
it to be made global.

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.

The <linux/module.h> pretty much brings in the kitchen sink along
with it, so it should be avoided wherever reasonably possible in
terms of being included from other commonly used <linux/something.h>
files, as it results in a measureable increase on compile times.
The worst culprit was probably device.h since it is used everywhere.
This file also had an implicit dependency/usage of mutex.h which was
masked by module.h, and is also fixed here at the same time.
There are over a dozen other headers that simply declare the
struct instead of pulling in the whole file, so follow their lead
and simply make it a few more.
Most of the implicit dependencies on module.h being present by
these headers pulling it in have been now weeded out, so we can
finally make this change with hopefully minimal breakage.

cpuidle users should call cpuidle_call_idle() directly
rather than via (pm_idle)() function pointer.
Architecture may choose to continue using (pm_idle)(),
but cpuidle need not depend on it:
my_arch_cpu_idle()
...
if(cpuidle_call_idle())
pm_idle();

When a Xen Dom0 kernel boots on a hypervisor, it gets access
to the raw-hardware ACPI tables. While it parses the idle tables
for the hypervisor's beneift, it uses HLT for its own idle.
Rather than have xen scribble on pm_idle and access default_idle,
have it simply disable_cpuidle() so acpi_idle will not load and
architecture default HLT will be used.

Avoid TLB flush IPIs for the cores in deeper c-states by voluntary leave_mm()
before entering into that state. CPUs tend to flush TLB in those c-states
anyways.
acpi_idle does this with C3-type states, but it was not caried over
when intel_idle was introduced. intel_idle can apply it
to C-states in addition to those that ACPI might export as C3...

On some SoC chips, HW resources may be in use during any particular idle
period. As a consequence, the cpuidle states that the SoC is safe to
enter can change from idle period to idle period. In addition, the
latency and threshold of each cpuidle state can vary, depending on the
operating condition when the CPU becomes idle, e.g. the current cpu
frequency, the current state of the HW blocks, etc.
cpuidle core and the menu governor, in the current form, are geared
towards cpuidle states that are static, i.e. the availabiltiy of the
states, their latencies, their thresholds are non-changing during run
time. cpuidle does not provide any hook that cpuidle drivers can use to
adjust those values on the fly for the current idle period before the menu
governor selects the target cpuidle state.
This patch extends cpuidle core and the menu governor to handle states
that are dynamic. There are three additions in the patch and the patch
maintains backwards-compatibility with existing cpuidle drivers.
1) add prepare() to struct cpuidle_device. A cpuidle driver can hook
into the callback and cpuidle will call prepare() before calling the
governor's select function. The callback gives the cpuidle driver a
chance to update the dynamic information of the cpuidle states for the
current idle period, e.g. state availability, latencies, thresholds,
power values, etc.
2) add CPUIDLE_FLAG_IGNORE as one of the state flags. In the prepare()
function, a cpuidle driver can set/clear the flag to indicate to the
menu governor whether a cpuidle state should be ignored, i.e. not
available, during the current idle period.
3) add power_specified bit to struct cpuidle_device. The menu governor
currently assumes that the cpuidle states are arranged in the order of
increasing latency, threshold, and power savings. This is true or can
be made true for static states. Once the state parameters are dynamic,
the latencies, thresholds, and power savings for the cpuidle states can
increase or decrease by different amounts from idle period to idle
period. So the assumption of increasing latency, threshold, and power
savings from Cn to C(n+1) can no longer be guaranteed.
It can be straightforward to calculate the power consumption of each
available state and to specify it in power_usage for the idle period.
Using the power_usage fields, the menu governor then selects the state
that has the lowest power consumption and that still satisfies all other
critieria. The power_specified bit defaults to 0. For existing cpuidle
drivers, cpuidle detects that power_specified is 0 and fills in a dummy
set of power_usage values.

cpuidle_unregister_driver() clears cpuidle_curr_driver
We should't expose cpuidle_curr_driver to
potential modification except via these interfaces.
So make it static and create cpuidle_get_driver() to observe it.
