cpuidle: teo: Fix alternative idle state lookup

2021-08-03T13:18:57Z

There are three mistakes in the loop in teo_select() that is looking for an alternative candidate idle state. First, it should walk all of the idle states shallower than the current candidate one, including all of the disabled ones, but it terminates after the first enabled idle state. Second, it should not terminate its last step if idle state 0 is disabled (which is related to the first issue). Finally, it may return the current alternative candidate idle state prematurely if the time span criterion is not met by the idle state under consideration at the moment. To address the issues mentioned above, make the loop in question walk all of the idle states shallower than the current candidate idle state all the way down to idle state 0 and rearrange the checks in it.

cpuidle: teo: Use kerneldoc documentation in admin-guide

There are two descriptions of the TEO (Timer Events Oriented) cpuidle governor in the kernel source tree, one in the C file containing its code and one in cpuidle.rst which is part of admin-guide. Instead of trying to keep them both in sync and in order to reduce text duplication, include the governor description from the C file directly into cpuidle.rst. Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

cpuidle: teo: Rework most recent idle duration values treatment

2021-06-11T16:36:45Z

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).

cpuidle: teo: Change the main idle state selection logic

2021-06-11T16:36:45Z

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).
