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.

Commit e978aa7d7d ( cpuidle: Move
dev->last_residency update to driver enter routine; remove dev->last_state)
was breaking suspend on laptops, as reported in the below link
- https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/11/164
This was fixed in commit 3439a8da16
(ACPI / cpuidle: Remove acpi_idle_suspend (to fix suspend regression)
by removing acpi_idle_suspend flag.
- https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/11/14/74
But this did fix did not work on all systems
as Suspend/resume regression was reported on Lenovo S10-3
recently by Dave.
- https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/27/115
It looked like with commit e978aa7d broke suspend and
with commit 3439a8da resume was not working with acpi_idle driver.
This patch fixes the regression that caused this issue
in the first place. acpi_idle_suspend flag is essential on
some x86 systems to prevent the cpus from going to deeper C-states
when suspend is triggered ( commit b04e7bdb98 )
So reverting the commit 3439a8da is essential.
By default, irqs are disabled in cpu_idle arch specific call
and re-enabled in idle state return path . During suspend,
the acpi_idle_suspend flag is set, which
prevents the cpus from going to deeper idle states,
it is essential to enabling the irqs in this return path too.
To address the suspend issue,
we were not re-enabling the interrupts while returning from
acpi_idle_enter_bm() routine if acpi_idle_suspend flag is set.
and this caused suspend failure.
In addition to the above, to improve the readability of the code,
return of -ENIVAL is replaced with -EBUSY in acpi_idle_suspend
return path. Implying that the system is currently busy when suspend
is in progress, which prevents the cpus from entering deeper C-states.

acpi_processor_cst_has_changed() invokes smp_processor_id() without

return error codes continuously, which in turn causes cpuidle to lock up
(hard).
However, acpi_idle_suspend doesn't appear to be useful for any

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.

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.

Having four variables for the same thing:
idle_halt, idle_nomwait, force_mwait and boot_option_idle_overrides
is rather confusing and unnecessary complex.
if idle= boot param is passed, only set up one variable:
boot_option_idle_overrides
Introduces following functional changes/fixes:
- intel_idle driver does not register if any idle=xy
boot param is passed.
- processor_idle.c will also not register a cpuidle driver
and get active if idle=halt is passed.
Before a cpuidle driver with one (C1, halt) state got registered
Now the default_idle function will be used which finally uses
the same idle call to enter sleep state (safe_halt()), but
without registering a whole cpuidle driver.
That means idle= param will always avoid cpuidle drivers to register
with one exception (same behavior as before):
idle=nomwait
may still register acpi_idle cpuidle driver, but C1 will not use
mwait, but hlt. This can be a workaround for IO based deeper sleep
states where C1 mwait causes problems.

Therefore apply this only to uses of __get_cpu_var where the addres of the

before entering C3-type cpu power states.
This may be useful for a system running acpi_idle
where the BIOS exports FADT C-states, _CST IO C-states,
or _CST FFH C-states with the BM_STS bit set;
while configuring the chipset to set BM_STS
more frequently than perhaps is optimal.
Note that such systems may have been developed
using a tickful OS that would quickly clear BM_STS,
rather than a tickless OS that may go for some time
between checking and clearing BM_STS.
Note also that an alternative for newer systems
is to use the intel_idle driver, which always
ignores BM_STS, relying Linux device drivers
to register constraints explicitly via PM_QOS.

The C-state idle time is not calculated correctly, which will return the wrong
residency time in C-state. It will have the following effects:
1. The system can't choose the deeper C-state when it is idle next time.
Of course the system power is increased. E.g. On one server machine about 40W
idle power is increased.
2. The powertop shows that it will stay in C0 running state about 95% time

* 'idle-release' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/lenb/linux-idle-2.6:
intel_idle: native hardware cpuidle driver for latest Intel processors
ACPI: acpi_idle: touch TS_POLLING only in the non-MWAIT case
acpi_pad: uses MONITOR/MWAIT, so it doesn't need to clear TS_POLLING
sched: clarify commment for TS_POLLING
ACPI: allow a native cpuidle driver to displace ACPI
cpuidle: make cpuidle_curr_driver static
cpuidle: add cpuidle_unregister_driver() error check
cpuidle: fail to register if !CONFIG_CPU_IDLE
acpi_enter_[simple,bm] does
idle timing in ns, convert it to timeval, then to us, then to
pmtimer_ticks and then back to ns.
This patch changes things to
idle timing in ns, convert it to us, and then to pmtimer_ticks.
Just saves an imul along this path, but makes the code cleaner.

commit d306ebc286
(ACPI: Be in TS_POLLING state during mwait based C-state entry)
fixed an important power & performance issue where ACPI c2 and c3 C-states
were clearing TS_POLLING even when using MWAIT (ACPI_STATE_FFH).
That bug had been causing us to receive redundant scheduling interrups
when we had already been woken up by MONITOR/MWAIT.
Following up on that...
In the MWAIT case, we don't have to subsequently
check need_resched(), as that c heck was there
for the TS_POLLING-clearing case.
Note that not only does the cpuidle calling function
already check need_resched() before calling us, the
low-level entry into monitor/mwait calls it twice --
guaranteeing that a write to the trigger address
can not go un-noticed.
Also, in this case, we don't have to set TS_POLLING
when we wake, because we never cleared it.

These were used before cpuidle by the native ACPI idle driver,
which tracked promotion and demotion between states.
The code was referenced by CONFIG_ACPI_PROCFS
for /proc/acpi/processor/*/power,
but as we no longer do promotion/demotion, that
reference has been a NOP since the transition.

This patch changes the string based list management to a handle base
implementation to help with the hot path use of pm-qos, it also renames
much of the API to use "request" as opposed to "requirement" that was
used in the initial implementation. I did this because request more
accurately represents what it actually does.
Also, I added a string based ABI for users wanting to use a string
interface. So if the user writes 0xDDDDDDDD formatted hex it will be
accepted by the interface. (someone asked me for it and I don't think
it hurts anything.)
This patch updates some documentation input I got from Randy.
