When maxcpus=1 is in the kernel command line, the BP is responsible
for re-enabling the HWP - because currently only the APs invoke
intel_pstate_hwp_enable() during their online process - which might
put the system into unstable state after resume.
Fix this by enabling the HWP explicitly on BP during resume.

Currently intel_pstate can function only in HWP mode on Skylake servers.
When HWP feature is not enabled on the processor then acpi-cpufreq is
driver is used.
Based on the power and performance tests using intel_pstate scaling
algorithm the results are comparable. But intel_pstate brings in
additional features:
- Display of turbo frequency range, which many users like to see
- Place limits in the turbo frequency range when platform allows
Since these tests are done only using non PID algorithm introduced in
kernel version 4.14, this patch is not a backport candidate. So each user
has to carefully weigh the benefits before he backports.

policy->cpu is copied into policy->cpus in cpufreq_online() before
calling into cpufreq_driver->init(). So there's no need to set the
same in the individual driver init() functions again.

The intel_pstate CPU frequency scaling driver has always
calculated CPU frequency incorrectly. Recent changes have
eliminted most of the issues, however the frequency reported
in the trace buffer, if used, is incorrect.
It remains desireable that cpu->pstate.scaling still be a nice
round number for things such as when setting max and min frequencies.
So the proposal is to just fix the reported frequency in the trace data.
Fixes what remains of [1].

In the current implementation, the response latency between seeing
SCHED_CPUFREQ_IOWAIT set and the actual P-state adjustment can be up
to 10ms. It can be reduced by bumping up the P-state to the max at
the time SCHED_CPUFREQ_IOWAIT is passed to intel_pstate_update_util().
With this change, the IO performance improves significantly.
For a simple "grep -r . linux" (Here linux is the kernel source
folder) with caches dropped every time on a Broadwell Xeon workstation
with per-core P-states, the user and system time is shorter by as much
as 30% - 40%.
The same performance difference was not observed on clients that don't
support per-core P-state.

With Android UI and benchmarks the latency of cpufreq response to
certain scheduling events can become very critical. Currently, callbacks
into cpufreq governors are only made from the scheduler if the target
CPU of the event is the same as the current CPU. This means there are
certain situations where a target CPU may not run the cpufreq governor
for some time.
One testcase to show this behavior is where a task starts running on
CPU0, then a new task is also spawned on CPU0 by a task on CPU1. If the
system is configured such that the new tasks should receive maximum
demand initially, this should result in CPU0 increasing frequency
immediately. But because of the above mentioned limitation though, this
does not occur.
This patch updates the scheduler core to call the cpufreq callbacks for
remote CPUs as well.
The schedutil, ondemand and conservative governors are updated to
process cpufreq utilization update hooks called for remote CPUs where
the remote CPU is managed by the cpufreq policy of the local CPU.
The intel_pstate driver is updated to always reject remote callbacks.
This is tested with couple of usecases (Android: hackbench, recentfling,
galleryfling, vellamo, Ubuntu: hackbench) on ARM hikey board (64 bit
octa-core, single policy). Only galleryfling showed minor improvements,
while others didn't had much deviation.
The reason being that this patch only targets a corner case, where
following are required to be true to improve performance and that
doesn't happen too often with these tests:
- Task is migrated to another CPU.
- The task has high demand, and should take the target CPU to higher
OPPs.
- And the target CPU doesn't call into the cpufreq governor until the
next tick.
Based on initial work from Steve Muckle.

The ->get callback in the intel_pstate structure was mostly there
for the scaling_cur_freq sysfs attribute to work, but after commit
f8475cef9008 (x86: use common aperfmperf_khz_on_cpu() to calculate
KHz using APERF/MPERF) that attribute uses arch_freq_get_on_cpu()
provided by the x86 arch code on all processors supported by
intel_pstate, so it doesn't need the ->get callback from the
driver any more.
Moreover, the very presence of the ->get callback in the intel_pstate
structure causes the cpuinfo_cur_freq attribute to be present when
intel_pstate operates in the active mode, which is bogus, because
the role of that attribute is to return the current CPU frequency
as seen by the hardware. For intel_pstate, though, this is just an
average frequency and not really current, but computed for the
previous sampling interval (the actual current frequency may be
way different at the point this value is obtained by reading from
cpuinfo_cur_freq), and after commit 82b4e03e01bc (intel_pstate: skip
scheduler hook when in "performance" mode) the value in
cpuinfo_cur_freq may be stale or just 0, depending on the driver's
operation mode. In fact, however, on the hardware supported by
intel_pstate there is no way to read the current CPU frequency
from it, so the cpuinfo_cur_freq attribute should not be present
at all when this driver is in use.
For this reason, drop intel_pstate_get() and clear the ->get
callback pointer pointing to it, so that the cpuinfo_cur_freq is
not present for intel_pstate in the active mode any more.

All systems with a defined ACPI preferred profile that are not
"servers" have been using the load-based P-state selection algorithm
in intel_pstate since 4.12-rc1 (mobile systems and laptops have been
using it since 4.10-rc1) and no problems with it have been reported
to date. In particular, no regressions with respect to the PID-based
P-state selection have been reported. Also testing indicates that
the P-state selection algorithm based on CPU load is generally on par
with the PID-based algorithm performance-wise, and for some workloads
it turns out to be better than the other one, while being more
straightforward and easier to understand at the same time.
Moreover, the PID-based P-state selection algorithm in intel_pstate
is known to be unstable in some situation and generally problematic,
the issues with it are hard to address and it has become a
significant maintenance burden.
For these reasons, make intel_pstate use the "powersave" P-state
selection algorithm based on CPU load in the active mode on all
systems and drop the PID-based P-state selection code along with
all things related to it from the driver. Also update the
documentation accordingly.

The busy percent calculated for the Knights Landing (KNL) platform
is 1024 times smaller than the correct busy value. This causes
performance to get stuck at the lowest ratio.
The scaling algorithm used for KNL is performance-based, but it still
looks at the CPU load to set the scaled busy factor to 0 when the
load is less than 1 percent. In this case, since the computed load
is 1024x smaller than it should be, the scaled busy factor will
always be 0, irrespective of CPU business.
This needs a fix similar to the turbostat one in commit b2b34dfe4d9a
(tools/power turbostat: KNL workaround for %Busy and Avg_MHz).
For this reason, add one more callback to processor-specific
callbacks to specify an MPERF multiplier represented by a number of
bit positions to shift the value of that register to the left to
copmensate for its rate difference with respect to the TSC. This
shift value is used during CPU busy calculations.

When the minimum performance limit percentage is set to the power-up
default, it is possible that minimum performance ratio is off by one.
In the set_policy() callback the minimum ratio is calculated by
applying global.min_perf_pct to turbo_ratio and rounding up, but the
power-up default global.min_perf_pct is already rounded up to the
next percent in min_perf_pct_min(). That results in two round up
operations, so for the default min_perf_pct one of them is not
required.
It is better to remove rounding up in min_perf_pct_min() as this
matches the displayed min_perf_pct prior to commit c5a2ee7dde89
(cpufreq: intel_pstate: Active mode P-state limits rework) in 4.12.
For example on a platform with max turbo ratio of 37 and minimum
ratio of 10, the min_perf_pct resulted in 28 with the above commit.
Before this commit it was 27 and it will be the same after this
change.

When the governor is set to "performance", intel_pstate does not
need the scheduler hook for doing any calculations. Under these
conditions, its only purpose is to continue to maintain
cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq.
The cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq sysfs attribute is now provided by
shared x86 cpufreq code on modern x86 systems, including
all systems supported by the intel_pstate driver.
So in "performance" governor mode, the scheduler hook can be skipped.
This applies to both in Software and Hardware P-state control modes.

In the current model the max/min perf limits are a fraction of current
user space limits to the allowed max_freq or 100% for global limits.
This results in wrong ratio limits calculation because of rounding
issues for some user space limits.
Initially we tried to solve this issue by issue by having more shift
bits to increase precision. Still there are isolated cases where we still
have error.
This can be avoided by using ratios all together. Since the way we get
cpuinfo.max_freq is by multiplying scaling factor to max ratio, we can
easily keep the max/min ratios in terms of ratios and not fractions.
For example:
if the max ratio = 36
cpuinfo.max_freq = 36 * 100000 = 3600000
Suppose user space sets a limit of 1200000, then we can calculate
max ratio limit as
= 36 * 1200000 / 3600000
= 12
This will be correct for any user limits.
The other advantage is that, we don't need to do any calculation in the
fast path as ratio limit is already calculated via set_policy() callback.

Commit c5a2ee7dde89 (cpufreq: intel_pstate: Active mode P-state

always be nonzero for CPU0 in min_perf_pct_min() if
cpufreq_register_driver() had succeeded which may not be the case
in virtualized environments.
If that assumption doesn't hold, it leads to an early crash on boot
in intel_pstate_register_driver(), so add a sanity check to
min_perf_pct_min() to prevent the crash from happening.

Pull power management utilities updates from Len Brown.
* 'utilities' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lenb/linux:
intel_pstate: use updated msr-index.h HWP.EPP values
tools/power x86_energy_perf_policy: support HWP.EPP
x86: msr-index.h: fix shifts to ULL results in HWP macros.
x86: msr-index.h: define HWP.EPP values
x86: msr-index.h: define EPB mid-points

intel_pstate exports sysfs attributes for setting and observing HWP.EPP.
These attributes use strings to describe 4 operating states, and
inside the driver, these strings are mapped to numerical register
values.
The authorative mapping between the strings and numerical HWP.EPP values
are now globally defined in msr-index.h, replacing the out-dated
mapping that were open-coded into intel_pstate.c
new old string
--- --- ------
0 0 performance
128 64 balance_performance
192 128 balance_power
255 192 power
Note that the HW and BIOS default value on most system is 128,
which intel_pstate will now call "balance_performance"
while it used to call it "balance_power".

Make the schedutil governor take the initial (default) value of the
rate_limit_us sysfs attribute from the (new) transition_delay_us
policy parameter (to be set by the scaling driver).
That will allow scaling drivers to make schedutil use smaller default
values of rate_limit_us and reduce the default average time interval
between consecutive frequency changes.
Make intel_pstate set transition_delay_us to 500.

Some computations in intel_pstate_get_min_max() are not necessary
and one of its two callers doesn't even use the full result.
First off, the fixed-point value of cpu->max_perf represents a
non-negative number between 0 and 1 inclusive and cpu->min_perf
cannot be greater than cpu->max_perf. It is not necessary to check
those conditions every time the numbers in question are used.
Moreover, since intel_pstate_max_within_limits() only needs the
upper boundary, it doesn't make sense to compute the lower one in
there and returning min and max from intel_pstate_get_min_max()
via pointers doesn't look particularly nice.
For the above reasons, drop intel_pstate_get_min_max(), add a helper
to get the base P-state for min/max computations and carry out them
directly in the previous callers of intel_pstate_get_min_max().

intel_pstate_hwp_set() is the only function walking policy->cpus
in intel_pstate. The rest of the code simply assumes one CPU per
policy, including the initialization code.
Therefore it doesn't make sense for intel_pstate_hwp_set() to
walk policy->cpus as it is guaranteed to have only one bit set
for policy->cpu.
For this reason, rearrange intel_pstate_hwp_set() to take the CPU
number as the argument and drop the loop over policy->cpus from it.

Add a new function pid_in_use() to return the information on whether
or not the PID-based P-state selection algorithm is in use.
That allows a couple of complicated conditions in the code to be
reduced to simple checks against the new function's return value.

The cpu_defaults structure is redundant, because it only contains
one member of type struct pstate_funcs which can be used directly
instead of struct cpu_defaults.
For this reason, drop struct cpu_defaults, use struct pstate_funcs
directly instead of it where applicable and rename all of the
variables of that type accordingly.

Move the definitions of the cpu_defaults structures after the
definitions of utilization update callback routines to avoid
extra declarations of the latter.

Avoid using extra function pointers during P-state selection by
dropping the get_target_pstate member from struct pstate_funcs,
adding a new update_util callback to it (to be registered with
the CPU scheduler as the utilization update callback in the active
mode) and reworking the utilization update callback routines to
invoke specific P-state selection functions directly.

Notice that some overhead in the utilization update callbacks
registered by intel_pstate in the active mode can be avoided if
those callbacks are tailored to specific configurations of the
driver. For example, the utilization update callback for the HWP
enabled case only needs to update the average CPU performance
periodically whereas the utilization update callback for the
PID-based algorithm does not need to take IO-wait boosting into
account and so on.
With that in mind, define three utilization update callbacks for
three different use cases: HWP enabled, the CPU load "powersave"
P-state selection algorithm and the PID-based "powersave" P-state
selection algorithm and modify the driver initialization to
choose the callback matching its current configuration.

One of the checks in intel_pstate_update_status() implicitly relies
on the information that there are only two struct cpufreq_driver
objects available, but it is better to do it directly against the
value it really is about (to make the code easier to follow if
nothing else).

The driver_registered variable in intel_pstate is used for checking
whether or not the driver has been registered, but intel_pstate_driver
can be used for that too (with the rule that the driver is not
registered as long as it is NULL).
That is a bit more straightforward and the code may be simplified
a bit this way, so modify the driver accordingly.

PID controller parameters only need to be initialized if the
get_target_pstate_use_performance() P-state selection routine
is going to be used. It is not necessary to initialize them
otherwise, so don't do that.

In the HWP enabled case pid_params.sample_rate_ns only needs to be
updated once, because it is global, so do that when setting hwp_active
instead of doing it during the initialization of every CPU.
Moreover, pid_params.sample_rate_ms is never used if HWP is enabled,
so do not update it at all then.
