fd0ef7a058 [CPUFREQ] CPUfreq ondemand: update sampling rate without waiting for next sampling
When a new sampling rate is shorter than the current one, (e.g., 1 sec
--> 10 ms) regardless how short the new one is, the current ondemand
mechanism wait for the previously set timer to be expired.

For example, if the user has just expressed that the sampling rate
should be 10 ms from now and the previous was 1000 ms, the new rate may
become effective 999 ms later, which could be not acceptable for the
user if the user has intended to speed up sampling because the system is
expected to react to CPU load fluctuation quickly from __now__.

In order to address this issue, we need to cancel the previously set
timer (schedule_delayed_work) and reset the timer if resetting timer is
expected to trigger the delayed_work ealier.

6beea0cda8 nohz: Fix update_ts_time_stat idle accounting
update_ts_time_stat currently updates idle time even if we are in
iowait loop at the moment. The only real users of the idle counter
(via get_cpu_idle_time_us) are CPU governors and they expect to get
cumulative time for both idle and iowait times.
The value (idle_sleeptime) is also printed to userspace by print_cpu
but it prints both idle and iowait times so the idle part is misleading.

Let's clean this up and fix update_ts_time_stat to account both counters
properly and update consumers of idle to consider iowait time as well.
If we do this we might use get_cpu_{idle,iowait}_time_us from other
contexts as well and we will get expected values.

3f78a9f7fc [CPUFREQ] add sampling_down_factor tunable to improve ondemand performance
Adds a new global tunable, sampling_down_factor.  Set to 1 it makes no
changes from existing behavior, but set to greater than 1 (e.g. 100)
it acts as a multiplier for the scheduling interval for reevaluating
load when the CPU is at its top speed due to high load.  This improves
performance by reducing the overhead of load evaluation and helping
the CPU stay at its top speed when truly busy, rather than shifting
back and forth in speed.  This tunable has no effect on behavior at
lower speeds/lower CPU loads.

This patch is against 2.6.36-rc6.

This patch should help solve kernel bug 19672 "ondemand is slow".

19379b1181 ondemand: Make the iowait-is-busy time a sysfs tunable
Pavel Machek pointed out that not all CPUs have an efficient
idle at high frequency. Specifically, older Intel and various
AMD cpus would get a higher powerusage when copying files from
USB.

Mike Chan pointed out that the same is true for various ARM
chips as well.

Thomas Renninger suggested to make this a sysfs tunable with a
reasonable default.

This patch adds a sysfs tunable for the new behavior, and uses
a very simple function to determine a reasonable default,
depending on the CPU vendor/type.

Arjan van de Ven
6b8fcd9029 ondemand: Solve a big performance issue by counting IOWAIT time as busy
The ondemand cpufreq governor uses CPU busy time (e.g. not-idle
time) as a measure for scaling the CPU frequency up or down.
If the CPU is busy, the CPU frequency scales up, if it's idle,
the CPU frequency scales down. Effectively, it uses the CPU busy
time as proxy variable for the more nebulous "how critical is
performance right now" question.

This algorithm falls flat on its face in the light of workloads
where you're alternatingly disk and CPU bound, such as the ever
popular "git grep", but also things like startup of programs and
maildir using email clients... much to the chagarin of Andrew
Morton.

This patch changes the ondemand algorithm to count iowait time
as busy, not idle, time. As shown in the breakdown cases above,
iowait is performance critical often, and by counting iowait,
the proxy variable becomes a more accurate representation of the
"how critical is performance" question.

The problem and fix are both verified with the "perf timechar"
tool.

0e625ac153 [CPUFREQ] ondemand - Use global sysfs dir for tuning settings
Ondemand has only global variables for userspace tunings via sysfs.
But they were exposed per CPU which wrongly implies to the user that
his settings are applied per cpu. Also locking sysfs against concurrent
access won't be necessary anymore after deprecation time.

This means the ondemand config dir is moved:
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/ondemand ->
     /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/ondemand

The old files will still exist, but reading or writing to them will
result in one (printk_once) deprecation msg to syslog per file.

cef9615a85 [CPUFREQ] ondemand: Uncouple minimal sampling rate from HZ in NO_HZ case
With this patch you have following minimal sampling rate restrictions:

Kernel restrictions:
If CONFIG_NO_HZ is set, the limit is 10ms fixed.
If CONFIG_NO_HZ is not set or no_hz=off boot parameter is used, the
limits depend on the CONFIG_HZ option:
HZ=1000: min=20000us  (20ms)
HZ=250:  min=80000us  (80ms)
HZ=100:  min=200000us (200ms)

HW restrictions:
Do not sample/poll more often than HW latency * 100  exported by the low
level cpufreq HW driver

The higher value of above restrictions is the minimal sampling rate
that can be set (and can be seen via ondemand/sampling_rate_min sysfs file)

Default sampling rate still is HW latency * 1000, but this will now end
up in lower values on latest (Intel and AMD) hardware as these can switch
really fast and sampling rate mostly was limited to the 80ms or 200ms
(depending on whether HZ=250 or HZ=1000 is used).

(updated changelog)

cpufreq fix timer teardown in ondemand governor

The problem is that dbs_timer_exit() uses cancel_delayed_work() when it should
use cancel_delayed_work_sync(). cancel_delayed_work() does not wait for the
workqueue handler to exit.

The ondemand governor does not seem to be affected because the
"if (!dbs_info->enable)" check at the beginning of the workqueue handler returns
immediately without rescheduling the work. The conservative governor in
2.6.30-rc has the same check as the ondemand governor, which makes things
usually run smoothly. However, if the governor is quickly stopped and then
started, this could lead to the following race :

dbs_enable could be reenabled and multiple do_dbs_timer handlers would run.
This is why a synchronized teardown is required.

The following patch applies to, at least, 2.6.28.x, 2.6.29.1, 2.6.30-rc2.

6915719b36 cpufreq: Initialise default governor before use
When the cpufreq driver starts up at boot time, it calls into the default
governor which might not be initialised yet.  This hurts when the
governor's worker function relies on memory that is not yet set up by its
init function.

This migrates all governors from module_init() to fs_initcall() when being
the default, as was already done in cpufreq_performance when it was the
only possible choice.  The performance governor is always initialized early
because it might be used as fallback even when not being the default.

Fixes at least one actual oops where ondemand is the default governor and
cpufreq_governor_dbs() uses the uninitialised kondemand_wq work-queue
during boot-time.
