cpufreq: governor: Fix handling of special cases in dbs_update()

As reported in KBZ 69821:

"With CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC=y cpu stays at the lowest frequcency 800MHz
 even if usage goes to 100%, frequency does not scale up, the governor
 in use is ondemand. Neither works conservative. Performance and
 userspace governors work as expected.

 With CONFIG_NO_HZ_IDLE or CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL cpu scales up with ondemand
 as expected."

Analysis carried out by Chen Yu leads to the conclusion that the
observed issue is due to idle_time in dbs_update() representing a
negative number in which case the function will return 0 as the load
(unless load is greater than 0 for another CPU sharing the policy),
although that need not be the right choice.

Indeed, idle_time representing a negative number means that during
the last sampling interval the CPU was almost 100% busy on the rough
average, so 100 should be returned as the load in that case.

Modify the code accordingly and rearrange it to clarify the handling
of all of the special cases in it.  While at it, also avoid returning
zero as the load if time_elapsed is 0 (it doesn't really make sense
to return 0 then).

intel_pstate: Fix intel_pstate_get()

After commit 8fa520af5081 "intel_pstate: Remove freq calculation from
intel_pstate_calc_busy()" intel_pstate_get() calls get_avg_frequency()
to compute the average frequency, which is problematic for two reasons.

First, intel_pstate_get() may be invoked before the driver reads the
CPU feedback registers for the first time and if that happens,
get_avg_frequency() will attempt to divide by zero.

Second, the get_avg_frequency() call in intel_pstate_get() is racy
with respect to intel_pstate_sample() and it may end up returning
completely meaningless values for this reason.

Moreover, after commit 7349ec0470b6 "intel_pstate: Move
intel_pstate_calc_busy() into get_target_pstate_use_performance()"
sample.core_pct_busy is never computed on Atom, but it is used in
intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate() in that case too.

To address those problems notice that if sample.core_pct_busy
was used in the average frequency computation carried out by
get_avg_frequency(), both the divide by zero problem and the
race with respect to intel_pstate_sample() would be avoided.

Accordingly, move the invocation of intel_pstate_calc_busy() from
get_target_pstate_use_performance() to intel_pstate_update_util(),
which also will take care of the uninitialized sample.core_pct_busy
on Atom, and modify get_avg_frequency() to use sample.core_pct_busy
as per the above.

majority of the cases this will result in correct max. But not 100% of the
time. If the _PPC is requested at a point where the calculation lead to a
lower max, this can result in a lower P-State then expected and it will
impact performance.
Example of this condition using a Broadwell laptop with config TDP.

1300000 1100000 1000000 900000 800000 600000 500000

The actual results by disabling config TDP so that we can get what is
requested on or below 2300000Khz.

Now set the config TDP level 1 ratio as 0x0b (equivalent to 1100000KHz)
in BIOS (not every system will let you adjust this).
The turbo activation ratio will be set to one less than that, which will
be 0x0a (So any request above 1000000KHz should result in turbo region
assuming no thermal limits).
Here _PPC will request max to 1100000KHz (which basically should still
result in turbo as this is more than the turbo activation ratio up to
max allowable turbo frequency), but actual calculation resulted in a max
ceiling P-State which is 0x0a. So under any load condition, this driver
will not request turbo P-States. This will be a huge performance hit.

When config TDP feature is ON, if the _PPC points to a frequency above
turbo activation ratio, the performance can still reach max turbo. In this
case we don't need to treat this as the reduced frequency in set_policy
callback.

In this change when config TDP is active (by checking if the physical max
non turbo ratio is more than the current max non turbo ratio), any request
above current max non turbo is treated as full performance.

8 years agocpufreq: powernv: Ramp-down global pstate slower than local-pstate
Akshay Adiga [Tue, 19 Apr 2016 09:58:01 +0000 (15:28 +0530)]
cpufreq: powernv: Ramp-down global pstate slower than local-pstate

The frequency transition latency from pmin to pmax is observed to be in
few millisecond granurality. And it usually happens to take a performance
penalty during sudden frequency rampup requests.

This patch set solves this problem by using an entity called "global
pstates". The global pstate is a Chip-level entity, so the global entitiy
(Voltage) is managed across the cores. The local pstate is a Core-level
entity, so the local entity (frequency) is managed across threads.

This patch brings down global pstate at a slower rate than the local
pstate. Hence by holding global pstates higher than local pstate makes
the subsequent rampups faster.

A per policy structure is maintained to keep track of the global and
local pstate changes. The global pstate is brought down using a parabolic
equation. The ramp down time to pmin is set to ~5 seconds. To make sure
that the global pstates are dropped at regular interval , a timer is
queued for every 2 seconds during ramp-down phase, which eventually brings
the pstate down to local pstate.

Iozone results show fairly consistent performance boost.
YCSB on redis shows improved Max latencies in most cases.

Rafael J. Wysocki [Mon, 25 Apr 2016 14:21:34 +0000 (16:21 +0200)]
cpufreq: governor: Fix prev_load initialization in cpufreq_governor_start()

The way cpufreq_governor_start() initializes j_cdbs->prev_load is
questionable.

First off, j_cdbs->prev_cpu_wall used as a denominator in the
computation may be zero.  The case this happens is when
get_cpu_idle_time_us() returns -1 and get_cpu_idle_time_jiffy()
used to return that number is called exactly at the jiffies_64
wrap time.  It is rather hard to trigger that error, but it is not
impossible and it will just crash the kernel then.

Second, j_cdbs->prev_load is computed as the average load during
the entire time since the system started and it may not reflect the
load in the previous sampling period (as it is expected to).
That doesn't play well with the way dbs_update() uses that value.
Namely, if the update time delta (wall_time) happens do be greater
than twice the sampling rate on the first invocation of it, the
initial value of j_cdbs->prev_load (which may be completely off) will
be returned to the caller as the current load (unless it is equal to
zero and unless another CPU sharing the same policy object has a
greater load value).

For this reason, notice that the prev_load field of struct cpu_dbs_info
is only used by dbs_update() and only in that one place, so if
cpufreq_governor_start() is modified to always initialize it to 0,
it will make dbs_update() always compute the actual load first time
it checks the update time delta against the doubled sampling rate
(after initialization) and there won't be any side effects of it.

Consequently, modify cpufreq_governor_start() as described.

Philippe Longepe [Fri, 22 Apr 2016 18:46:09 +0000 (11:46 -0700)]
cpufreq: intel_pstate: Use average P-State instead of current P-State

The result returned by pid_calc() is subtracted from current_pstate
(which is the P-State requested during the last period) in order to
obtain the target P-State for the current iteration.

However, current_pstate may not reflect the real current P-State of
the CPU. In particular, that P-State may be higher because of the
frequency sharing per module.

The theory is:
 - The load is the percentage of time spent in C0 and is related to
   the average P-State during the same period.
 - The last requested P-State can be completely different than the
   average P-State (because of frequency sharing or throttling).
 - The P-State shift computed by the pid_calc is based on the load
   computed at average P-State, so the shift must be relative to
   this average P-State.

Using the average P-State instead of current P-State improves power
without significant performance penalty in cases when a task migrates
from one core to other core sharing frequency and voltage.

8 years agocpu/hotplug: Fix rollback during error-out in __cpu_disable()
Sebastian Andrzej Siewior [Fri, 8 Apr 2016 12:40:15 +0000 (14:40 +0200)]
cpu/hotplug: Fix rollback during error-out in __cpu_disable()

The recent introduction of the hotplug thread which invokes the callbacks on
the plugged cpu, cased the following regression:

If takedown_cpu() fails, then we run into several issues:

 1) The rollback of the target cpu states is not invoked. That leaves the smp
    threads and the hotplug thread in disabled state.

 2) notify_online() is executed due to a missing skip_onerr flag. That causes
    that both CPU_DOWN_FAILED and CPU_ONLINE notifications are invoked which
    confuses quite some notifiers.

 3) The CPU_DOWN_FAILED notification is not invoked on the target CPU. That's
    not an issue per se, but it is inconsistent and in consequence blocks the
    patches which rely on these states being invoked on the target CPU and not
    on the controlling cpu. It also does not preserve the strict call order on
    rollback which is problematic for the ongoing state machine conversion as
    well.

To fix this we add a rollback flag to the remote callback machinery and invoke
the rollback including the CPU_DOWN_FAILED notification on the remote
cpu. Further mark the notify online state with 'skip_onerr' so we don't get a
double invokation.

This workaround will go away once we moved the unplug invocation to the target
cpu itself.

[ tglx: Massaged changelog and moved the CPU_DOWN_FAILED notifiaction to the
   target cpu ]

atl2 includes NETIF_F_SG in hw_features even though it has no support
for non-linear skbs.  This bug was originally harmless since the
driver does not claim to implement checksum offload and that used to
be a requirement for SG.

Now that SG and checksum offload are independent features, if you
explicitly enable SG *and* use one of the rare protocols that can use
SG without checkusm offload, this potentially leaks sensitive
information (before you notice that it just isn't working).  Therefore

irqchip/mips-gic: Don't overrun pcpu_masks array

Commit 2a0787051182 ("irqchip/mips-gic: Use gic_vpes instead of
NR_CPUS") & commit 78930f09b940 ("irqchip/mips-gic: Clear percpu_masks
correctly when mapping") both introduce code which accesses gic_vpes
entries in the pcpu_masks array. However, this array has length NR_CPUS.
If NR_CPUS is less than gic_vpes (ie. the kernel supports use of less
CPUs than are present in the system) then we overrun the array, clobber
some other data & generally die pretty promptly.

Most notably this affects uniprocessor kernels running on any multicore
or multithreaded Malta with a GIC (ie. the vast majority of real Malta
boards).

Fix this by only accessing up to min(gic_vpes, NR_CPUS) entries in the
pcpu_masks array, preventing the array overrun.

Merge branch 'mlx4-fixes'

Or Gerlitz says:

====================
Mellaox 40G driver fixes for 4.6-rc

With the fix for ARM bug being under the works, these are
few other fixes for mlx4 we have ready to go.

Eran addressed the problematic/wrong reporting of dropped packets, Daniel
fixed some matters related to PPC EEH's and Jenny's patch makes sure
VFs can't change the port's pause settings.
