arm: disable frequency invariance for CONFIG_BL_SWITCHER

2020-10-08T15:17:27Z

big.LITTLE switching complicates the setting of a correct cpufreq-based frequency invariance scale factor due to (as observed in drivers/cpufreq/vexpress-spc-cpufreq.c): - Incorrect current and maximum frequencies as a result of the exposure of a virtual frequency table to the cpufreq core, - Missed updates as a result of asynchronous frequency adjustments caused by frequency changes in other CPU pairs. Given that its functionality is atypical in regards to frequency invariance and this is an old technology, disable frequency invariance for when big.LITTLE switching is configured in to prevent incorrect scale setting.

cpufreq,arm,arm64: restructure definitions of arch_set_freq_scale()

2020-10-08T15:17:27Z

Compared to other arch_* functions, arch_set_freq_scale() has an atypical weak definition that can be replaced by a strong architecture specific implementation. The more typical support for architectural functions involves defining an empty stub in a header file if the symbol is not already defined in architecture code. Some examples involve: - #define arch_scale_freq_capacity topology_get_freq_scale - #define arch_scale_freq_invariant topology_scale_freq_invariant - #define arch_scale_cpu_capacity topology_get_cpu_scale - #define arch_update_cpu_topology topology_update_cpu_topology - #define arch_scale_thermal_pressure topology_get_thermal_pressure - #define arch_set_thermal_pressure topology_set_thermal_pressure Bring arch_set_freq_scale() in line with these functions by renaming it to topology_set_freq_scale() in the arch topology driver, and by defining the arch_set_freq_scale symbol to point to the new function for arm and arm64. While there are other users of the arch_topology driver, this patch defines arch_set_freq_scale for arm and arm64 only, due to their existing definitions of arch_scale_freq_capacity. This is the getter function of the frequency invariance scale factor and without a getter function, the setter function - arch_set_freq_scale() has not purpose.

arch_topology, arm, arm64: define arch_scale_freq_invariant()

2020-09-18T17:11:20Z

arch_scale_freq_invariant() is used by schedutil to determine whether the scheduler's load-tracking signals are frequency invariant. Its definition is overridable, though by default it is hardcoded to 'true' if arch_scale_freq_capacity() is defined ('false' otherwise). This behaviour is not overridden on arm, arm64 and other users of the generic arch topology driver, which is somewhat precarious: arch_scale_freq_capacity() will always be defined, yet not all cpufreq drivers are guaranteed to drive the frequency invariance scale factor setting. In other words, the load-tracking signals may very well *not* be frequency invariant. Now that cpufreq can be queried on whether the current driver is driving the Frequency Invariance (FI) scale setting, the current situation can be improved. This combines the query of whether cpufreq supports the setting of the frequency scale factor, with whether all online CPUs are counter-based FI enabled. While cpufreq FI enablement applies at system level, for all CPUs, counter-based FI support could also be used for only a subset of CPUs to set the invariance scale factor. Therefore, if cpufreq-based FI support is present, we consider the system to be invariant. If missing, we require all online CPUs to be counter-based FI enabled in order for the full system to be considered invariant. If the system ends up not being invariant, a new condition is needed in the counter initialization code that disables all scale factor setting based on counters. Precedence of counters over cpufreq use is not important here. The invariant status is only given to the system if all CPUs have at least one method of setting the frequency scale factor.

arch_topology, sched/core: Cleanup thermal pressure definition

2020-07-22T08:22:05Z

The following commit: 14533a16c46d ("thermal/cpu-cooling, sched/core: Move the arch_set_thermal_pressure() API to generic scheduler code") moved the definition of arch_set_thermal_pressure() to sched/core.c, but kept its declaration in linux/arch_topology.h. When building e.g. an x86 kernel with CONFIG_SCHED_THERMAL_PRESSURE=y, cpufreq_cooling.c ends up getting the declaration of arch_set_thermal_pressure() from include/linux/arch_topology.h, which is somewhat awkward. On top of this, sched/core.c unconditionally defines o The thermal_pressure percpu variable o arch_set_thermal_pressure() while arch_scale_thermal_pressure() does nothing unless redefined by the architecture. arch_*() functions are meant to be defined by architectures, so revert the aforementioned commit and re-implement it in a way that keeps arch_set_thermal_pressure() architecture-definable, and doesn't define the thermal pressure percpu variable for kernels that don't need it (CONFIG_SCHED_THERMAL_PRESSURE=n).

arm: Use common cpu_topology structure and functions.

2019-07-22T16:36:18Z

Currently, ARM32 and ARM64 uses different data structures to represent their cpu topologies. Since, we are moving the ARM64 topology to common code to be used by other architectures, we can reuse that for ARM32 as well. Take this opprtunity to remove the redundant functions from ARM32 and reuse the common code instead.

sched/topology, arch/arm: Rebuild sched_domain hierarchy when CPU capacity changes

2018-09-10T09:05:48Z

Asymmetric CPU capacity can not necessarily be determined accurately at the time the initial sched_domain hierarchy is built during boot. It is therefore necessary to be able to force a full rebuild of the hierarchy later triggered by the arch_topology driver. A full rebuild requires the arch-code to implement arch_update_cpu_topology() which isn't yet implemented for arm. This patch points the arm implementation to arch_topology driver to ensure that full hierarchy rebuild happens when needed.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

2017-11-02T10:10:55Z

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches. Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

arm: wire cpu-invariant accounting support up to the task scheduler
