We should stop cpufreq governors when we shut down the system. If we
don't do this, we can end up with this deadlock:
1. cpufreq governor may be running on a CPU other than CPU0.
2. In machine_restart() we call smp_send_stop() which stops CPUs.
If one of these CPUs was actively running a cpufreq governor
then it may have the mutex / spinlock needed to access the main
PMIC in the system (perhaps over I2C)
3. If a machine needs access to the main PMIC in order to shutdown
then it will never get it since the mutex was lost when the other
CPU stopped.
4. We'll hang (possibly eventually hitting the hard lockup detector).
Let's avoid the problem by stopping the cpufreq governor at shutdown,
which is a sensible thing to do anyway.

Currently there is no callback for cpufreq drivers which is called once the
policy is ready to be used. There are some requirements where such a callback is
required.
One of them is registering a cooling device with the help of
of_cpufreq_cooling_register(). This routine tries to get 'struct cpufreq_policy'
for CPUs which isn't yet initialed at the time ->init() is called and so we face
issues while registering the cooling device.
Because we can't register cooling device from ->init(), we need a callback that
is called after the policy is ready to be used and hence we introduce ->ready()
callback.

When the user space tries to set scaling_(max|min)_freq through
sysfs, the cpufreq_set_policy() asks other driver's opinions
for the max/min frequencies. Some device drivers, like Tegra
CPU EDP which is not upstreamed yet though, may constrain the
CPU maximum frequency dynamically because of board design.
So if the user space access happens and some driver is capping
the cpu frequency at the same time, the user_policy->(max|min)
is overridden by the capped value, and that's not expected by
the user space. And if the user space is not invoked again,
the CPU will always be capped by the user_policy->(max|min)
even no drivers limit the CPU frequency any more.
This patch preserves the user specified min/max settings, so that
every time the cpufreq policy is updated, the new max/min can
be re-evaluated correctly based on the user's expection and
the present device drivers' status.

This commit extends the cpufreq_driver structure with an additional
'void *driver_data' field that can be filled by the ->probe() function
of a cpufreq driver to pass additional custom information to the
driver itself.
A new function called cpufreq_get_driver_data() is added to allow a
cpufreq driver to retrieve those driver data, since they are typically
needed from a cpufreq_policy->init() callback, which does not have
access to the cpufreq_driver structure. This function call is similar
to the existing cpufreq_get_current_driver() function call.

strnicmp was renamed to strncasecmp, and strnicmp made into a wrapper
for the new strncasecmp to avoid breaking existing users.

Commit 367dc4aa93 ("cpufreq: Add stop CPU callback to
cpufreq_driver interface") introduced the stop CPU callback for
intel_pstate drivers. During the CPU_DOWN_PREPARE stage, this
callback is invoked so that drivers can take some action on the
pstate of the cpu before it is taken offline. This callback was
assumed to be useful only for those drivers which have implemented
the set_policy CPU callback because they have no other way to take
action about the cpufreq of a CPU which is being hotplugged out
except in the exit callback which is called very late in the offline
process.
The drivers which implement the target/target_index callbacks were
expected to take care of requirements like the ones that commit
367dc4aa addresses in the GOV_STOP notification event. But there
are disadvantages to restricting the usage of stop CPU callback
to cpufreq drivers that implement the set_policy callbacks and who
want to take explicit action on the setting the cpufreq during a
hotplug operation.
1.GOV_STOP gets called for every CPU offline and drivers would usually
want to take action when the last cpu in the policy->cpus mask
is taken offline. As long as there is more than one cpu in the
policy->cpus mask, cpufreq core itself makes sure that the freq
for the other cpus in this mask is set according to the maximum load.
This is sensible and drivers which implement the target_index callback
would mostly not want to modify that. However the cpufreq core leaves a
loose end when the cpu in the policy->cpus mask is the last one to go offline;
it does nothing explicit to the frequency of the core. Drivers may need
a way to take some action here and stop CPU callback mechanism is the
best way to do it today.
2. We cannot implement driver specific actions in the GOV_STOP mechanism.
So we will need another driver callback which is invoked from here which is
unnecessary.
Therefore this patch extends the usage of stop CPU callback to be used
by all cpufreq drivers as long as they have this callback implemented
and irrespective of whether they are set_policy/target_index drivers.
The assumption is if the drivers find the GOV_STOP path to be a suitable
way of implementing what they want to do with the freq of the cpu
going offine,they will not implement the stop CPU callback at all.

This is only relevant to implementations with multiple clusters, where clusters
have separate clock lines but all CPUs within a cluster share it.
Consider a dual cluster platform with 2 cores per cluster. During suspend we
start hot unplugging CPUs in order 1 to 3. When CPU2 is removed, policy->kobj
would be moved to CPU3 and when CPU3 goes down we wouldn't free policy or its
kobj as we want to retain permissions/values/etc.
Now on resume, we will get CPU2 before CPU3 and will call __cpufreq_add_dev().
We will recover the old policy and update policy->cpu from 3 to 2 from
update_policy_cpu().
But the kobj is still tied to CPU3 and isn't moved to CPU2. We wouldn't create a
link for CPU2, but would try that for CPU3 while bringing it online. Which will
report errors as CPU3 already has kobj assigned to it.
This bug got introduced with commit 42f921a, which overlooked this scenario.
To fix this, lets move kobj to the new policy->cpu while bringing first CPU of a
cluster back. Also do a WARN_ON() if kobject_move failed, as we would reach here
only for the first CPU of a non-boot cluster. And we can't recover from this
situation, if kobject_move() fails.

Douglas Anderson, recently pointed out an interesting problem due to which
udelay() was expiring earlier than it should.
While transitioning between frequencies few platforms may temporarily switch to
a stable frequency, waiting for the main PLL to stabilize.
For example: When we transition between very low frequencies on exynos, like
between 200MHz and 300MHz, we may temporarily switch to a PLL running at 800MHz.
No CPUFREQ notification is sent for that. That means there's a period of time
when we're running at 800MHz but loops_per_jiffy is calibrated at between 200MHz
and 300MHz. And so udelay behaves badly.
To get this fixed in a generic way, introduce another set of callbacks
get_intermediate() and target_intermediate(), only for drivers with
target_index() and CPUFREQ_ASYNC_NOTIFICATION unset.
get_intermediate() should return a stable intermediate frequency platform wants
to switch to, and target_intermediate() should set CPU to that frequency,
before jumping to the frequency corresponding to 'index'. Core will take care of
sending notifications and driver doesn't have to handle them in
target_intermediate() or target_index().
NOTE: ->target_index() should restore to policy->restore_freq in case of
failures as core would send notifications for that.

Some cpufreq drivers were redundantly invoking the _begin() and _end()
APIs around frequency transitions, and this double invocation (one from
the cpufreq core and the other from the cpufreq driver) used to result
in a self-deadlock, leading to system hangs during boot. (The _begin()
API makes contending callers wait until the previous invocation is
complete. Hence, the cpufreq driver would end up waiting on itself!).
Now all such drivers have been fixed, but debugging this issue was not
very straight-forward (even lockdep didn't catch this). So let us add a
debug infrastructure to the cpufreq core to catch such issues more easily
in the future.
We add a new field called 'transition_task' to the policy structure, to keep
track of the task which is performing the frequency transition. Using this
field, we make note of this task during _begin() and print a warning if we
find a case where the same task is calling _begin() again, before completing
the previous frequency transition using the corresponding _end().
We have left out ASYNC_NOTIFICATION drivers from this debug infrastructure
for 2 reasons:
1. At the moment, we have no way to avoid a particular scenario where this
debug infrastructure can emit false-positive warnings for such drivers.
The scenario is depicted below:
Task A Task B
/* 1st freq transition */
Invoke _begin() {
...
...
}
Change the frequency
/* 2nd freq transition */
Invoke _begin() {
... //waiting for B to
... //finish _end() for
... //the 1st transition
... | Got interrupt for successful
... | change of frequency (1st one).
... |
... | /* 1st freq transition */
... | Invoke _end() {
... | ...
... V }
...
...
}
This scenario is actually deadlock-free because, once Task A changes the
frequency, it is Task B's responsibility to invoke the corresponding
_end() for the 1st frequency transition. Hence it is perfectly legal for
Task A to go ahead and attempt another frequency transition in the meantime.
(Of course it won't be able to proceed until Task B finishes the 1st _end(),
but this doesn't cause a deadlock or a hang).
The debug infrastructure cannot handle this scenario and will treat it as
a deadlock and print a warning. To avoid this, we exclude such drivers
from the purview of this code.
2. Luckily, we don't _need_ this infrastructure for ASYNC_NOTIFICATION drivers
at all! The cpufreq core does not automatically invoke the _begin() and
_end() APIs during frequency transitions in such drivers. Thus, the driver
alone is responsible for invoking _begin()/_end() and hence there shouldn't
be any conflicts which lead to double invocations. So, we can skip these
drivers, since the probability that such drivers will hit this problem is
extremely low, as outlined above.

Many cpufreq drivers need to iterate over the cpufreq_frequency_table
for various tasks.
This patch introduces two macros which can be used for iteration over
cpufreq_frequency_table keeping a common coding style across drivers:
- cpufreq_for_each_entry: iterate over each entry of the table
- cpufreq_for_each_valid_entry: iterate over each entry that contains
a valid frequency.
It should have no functional changes.

CPUFreq core has new infrastructure that would guarantee serialized calls to
target() or target_index() callbacks. These are called
cpufreq_freq_transition_begin() and cpufreq_freq_transition_end().
This patch converts existing drivers to use these new set of routines.

Whenever we change the frequency of a CPU, we call the PRECHANGE and POSTCHANGE
notifiers. They must be serialized, i.e. PRECHANGE and POSTCHANGE notifiers
should strictly alternate, thereby preventing two different sets of PRECHANGE or
POSTCHANGE notifiers from interleaving arbitrarily.
The following examples illustrate why this is important:
Scenario 1:
-----------
A thread reading the value of cpuinfo_cur_freq, will call
__cpufreq_cpu_get()->cpufreq_out_of_sync()->cpufreq_notify_transition()
The ondemand governor can decide to change the frequency of the CPU at the same
time and hence it can end up sending the notifications via ->target().
If the notifiers are not serialized, the following sequence can occur:
- PRECHANGE Notification for freq A (from cpuinfo_cur_freq)
- PRECHANGE Notification for freq B (from target())
- Freq changed by target() to B
- POSTCHANGE Notification for freq B
- POSTCHANGE Notification for freq A
We can see from the above that the last POSTCHANGE Notification happens for freq
A but the hardware is set to run at freq B.
Where would we break then?: adjust_jiffies() in cpufreq.c & cpufreq_callback()
in arch/arm/kernel/smp.c (which also adjusts the jiffies). All the
loops_per_jiffy calculations will get messed up.
Scenario 2:
-----------
The governor calls __cpufreq_driver_target() to change the frequency. At the
same time, if we change scaling_{min|max}_freq from sysfs, it will end up
calling the governor's CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS notification, which will also call
__cpufreq_driver_target(). And hence we end up issuing concurrent calls to
->target().
Typically, platforms have the following logic in their ->target() routines:
(Eg: cpufreq-cpu0, omap, exynos, etc)
A. If new freq is more than old: Increase voltage
B. Change freq
C. If new freq is less than old: decrease voltage
Now, if the two concurrent calls to ->target() are X and Y, where X is trying to
increase the freq and Y is trying to decrease it, we get the following race
condition:
X.A: voltage gets increased for larger freq
Y.A: nothing happens
Y.B: freq gets decreased
Y.C: voltage gets decreased
X.B: freq gets increased
X.C: nothing happens
Thus we can end up setting a freq which is not supported by the voltage we have
set. That will probably make the clock to the CPU unstable and the system might
not work properly anymore.
This patch introduces a set of synchronization primitives to serialize frequency
transitions, which are to be used as shown below:
cpufreq_freq_transition_begin();
//Perform the frequency change
cpufreq_freq_transition_end();
The _begin() call sends the PRECHANGE notification whereas the _end() call sends
the POSTCHANGE notification. Also, all the necessary synchronization is handled
within these calls. In particular, even drivers which set the ASYNC_NOTIFICATION
flag can also use these APIs for performing frequency transitions (ie., you can
call _begin() from one task, and call the corresponding _end() from a different
task).
The actual synchronization underneath is not that complicated:
The key challenge is to allow drivers to begin the transition from one thread
and end it in a completely different thread (this is to enable drivers that do
asynchronous POSTCHANGE notification from bottom-halves, to also use the same
interface).
To achieve this, a 'transition_ongoing' flag, a 'transition_lock' spinlock and a
wait-queue are added per-policy. The flag and the wait-queue are used in
conjunction to create an "uninterrupted flow" from _begin() to _end(). The
spinlock is used to ensure that only one such "flow" is in flight at any given
time. Put together, this provides us all the necessary synchronization.

This callback allows the driver to do clean up before the CPU is
completely down and its state cannot be modified. This is used
by the intel_pstate driver to reduce the requested P state prior to
the core going away. This is required because the requested P state
of the offline core is used to select the package P state. This
effectively sets the floor package P state to the requested P state on
the offline core.

After commit da60ce9f2f (cpufreq: call cpufreq_driver->get() after
calling ->init()) __cpufreq_add_dev() sometimes fails for CPUs handled
by intel_pstate, because that driver may return 0 from its ->get()
callback if it has not run long enough to collect enough samples on the
given CPU. That didn't happen before commit da60ce9f2f which added
policy->cur initialization to __cpufreq_add_dev() to help reduce code
duplication in other cpufreq drivers.
However, the code added by commit da60ce9f2f need not be executed
for cpufreq drivers having the ->setpolicy callback defined, because
the subsequent invocation of cpufreq_set_policy() will use that
callback to initialize the policy anyway and it doesn't need
policy->cur to be initialized upfront. The analogous code in
cpufreq_update_policy() is also unnecessary for cpufreq drivers
having ->setpolicy set and may be skipped for them as well.
Since intel_pstate provides ->setpolicy, skipping the upfront
policy->cur initialization for cpufreq drivers with that callback
set will cover intel_pstate and the problem it's been having after
commit da60ce9f2f will be addressed.

This patch adds cpufreq suspend/resume calls to dpm_{suspend|resume}()
for handling suspend/resume of cpufreq governors.
Lan Tianyu (Intel) & Jinhyuk Choi (Broadcom) found an issue where the
tunables configuration for clusters/sockets with non-boot CPUs was
lost after system suspend/resume, as we were notifying governors with
CPUFREQ_GOV_POLICY_EXIT on removal of the last CPU for that policy
which caused the tunables memory to be freed.
This is fixed by preventing any governor operations from being
carried out between the device suspend and device resume stages of
system suspend and resume, respectively.
We could have added these callbacks at dpm_{suspend|resume}_noirq()
level, but there is an additional problem that the majority of I/O
devices is already suspended at that point and if cpufreq drivers
want to change the frequency before suspending, then that not be
possible on some platforms (which depend on peripherals like i2c,
regulators, etc).

We call __find_governor() during the addition of the first CPU of
each policy from __cpufreq_add_dev() to find the last governor used
for this CPU before it was hot-removed.
After that we call cpufreq_parse_governor() in cpufreq_init_policy(),
either with this governor, or with the default governor. Right after
that policy->governor is set to NULL.
While that code is not functionally problematic, the structure of it
is suboptimal, because some of the code required in cpufreq_init_policy()
is being executed by its caller, __cpufreq_add_dev(). So, it would make
more sense to get all of it together in a single place to make code more

Accordingly, move the code needed for policy initialization to
cpufreq_init_policy() and initialize policy->governor to NULL at the
beginning.

If a module calls cpufreq_get while cpufreq is initializing, it's
possible for it to be called after cpufreq_driver is set but before
cpufreq_cpu_data is written during subsys_interface_register. This
happens because cpufreq_get doesn't take the cpufreq_driver_lock
around its use of cpufreq_cpu_data.
Fix this by using cpufreq_cpu_get(cpu) to look up the policy rather
than reading it out of cpufreq_cpu_data directly. cpufreq_cpu_get()
takes the appropriate locks to prevent this race from happening.
Since it's possible for policy to be NULL if the caller passes in an
invalid CPU number or calls the function before cpufreq is initialized,
delete the BUG_ON(!policy) and simply return 0. Don't try to return
-ENOENT because that's negative and the function returns an unsigned
integer.
