ec437d71db cpufreq: amd-pstate: Introduce a new AMD P-State driver to support future processors
AMD P-State is the AMD CPU performance scaling driver that introduces a
new CPU frequency control mechanism on AMD Zen based CPU series in Linux
kernel. The new mechanism is based on Collaborative processor
performance control (CPPC) which is finer grain frequency management
than legacy ACPI hardware P-States. Current AMD CPU platforms are using
the ACPI P-states driver to manage CPU frequency and clocks with
switching only in 3 P-states. AMD P-State is to replace the ACPI
P-states controls, allows a flexible, low-latency interface for the
Linux kernel to directly communicate the performance hints to hardware.

AMD P-State leverages the Linux kernel governors such as *schedutil*,
*ondemand*, etc. to manage the performance hints which are provided by CPPC
hardware functionality. The first version for AMD P-State is to support one
of the Zen3 processors, and we will support more in future after we verify
the hardware and SBIOS functionalities.

There are two types of hardware implementations for AMD P-State: one is full
MSR support and another is shared memory support. It can use
X86_FEATURE_CPPC feature flag to distinguish the different types.

Using the new AMD P-State method + kernel governors (*schedutil*,
*ondemand*, ...) to manage the frequency update is the most appropriate
bridge between AMD Zen based hardware processor and Linux kernel, the
processor is able to adjust to the most efficiency frequency according to
the kernel scheduler loading.

Please check the detailed CPU feature and MSR register description in
Processor Programming Reference (PPR) for AMD Family 19h Model 51h,
Revision A1 Processors:

a7f7f6248d treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'
Since commit 84af7a6194 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over
'---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually
decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances.

This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines,
I also fixed the indentation.

There are a variety of indentation styles found.

  a) 4 spaces + '---help---'
  b) 7 spaces + '---help---'
  c) 8 spaces + '---help---'
  d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---'
  e) 1 tab + '---help---'    (correct indentation)
  f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---'
  g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'

In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the
following commend:

  $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/'

de966cf4a4 sched/x86: Change CONFIG_SCHED_ITMT to CONFIG_SCHED_MC_PRIO
Rename CONFIG_SCHED_ITMT for Intel Turbo Boost Max Technology 3.0
to CONFIG_SCHED_MC_PRIO.  This makes the configuration extensible
in future to other architectures that wish to similarly establish
CPU core priorities support in the scheduler.

The description in Kconfig is updated to reflect this change with
added details for better clarity.  The configuration is explicitly
default-y, to enable the feature on CPUs that have this feature.

It has no effect on non-TBM3 CPUs.

9522a2ff9c cpufreq: intel_pstate: Enforce _PPC limits
Use ACPI _PPC notification to limit max P state driver will request.
ACPI _PPC change notification is sent by BIOS to limit max P state
in several cases:
- Reduce impact of platform thermal condition
- When Config TDP feature is used, a changed _PPC is sent to
follow TDP change
- Remote node managers in server want to control platform power
via baseboard management controller (BMC)

This change registers with ACPI processor performance lib so that
_PPC changes are notified to cpufreq core, which in turns will
result in call to .setpolicy() callback. Also the way _PSS
table identifies a turbo frequency is not compatible to max turbo
frequency in intel_pstate, so the very first entry in _PSS needs
to be adjusted.

This feature can be turned on by using kernel parameters:
intel_pstate=support_acpi_ppc

6ee11e413c Revert "cpufreq: intel_pstate: Use ACPI perf configuration"
Revert commit 37afb00032 (cpufreq: intel_pstate: Use ACPI perf
configuration) that is reported to cause a regression to happen
on a system where invalid data are returned by the ACPI _PSS object.

Since that commit makes assumptions regarding the _PSS output
correctness that may turn out to be overly optimistic in general,
there is a concern that it may introduce regression on more
systems, so it's better to revert it now and we'll revisit the
underlying issue in the next cycle with a more robust solution.

37afb00032 cpufreq: intel_pstate: Use ACPI perf configuration
Use ACPI _PSS to limit the Intel P State turbo, max and min ratios.
This driver uses acpi processor perf lib calls to register performance.
The following logic is used to adjust Intel P state driver limits:
- If there is no turbo entry in _PSS, then disable Intel P state turbo
and limit to non turbo max
- If the non turbo max ratio is more than _PSS max non turbo value, then
set the max non turbo ratio to _PSS non turbo max
- If the min ratio is less than _PSS min then change the min ratio
matching _PSS min
- Scale the _PSS turbo frequency to max turbo frequency based on control
value.
This feature can be disabled by using kernel parameters:
intel_pstate=no_acpi

da0d9fda37 cpufreq / intel_pstate: Change to disallow module build
Load order is important in order for intel_pstate to take over as the
default scaling driver from acpi-cpufreq.

If both are built-in, acpi-cpufreq uses late_initcall() and
intel_pstate uses device_initcall() so it will be able to register as
the scaling before acpi-cpufreq for the processors supported by
intel_pstate.

If acpi-cpufreq is built as a module then intel_pstate still gets
first option to become the scaling driver.

that with his Gentoo config, acpi-cpufreq wasn't enabled and
powernow-k8 couldn't handoff properly to acpi-cpufreq leading to
running without P-state support (i.e., cores are constantly in P0).

To alleaviate that, we need to make powernow-k8 depend on acpi-cpufreq
so that acpi-cpufreq is always present.

11269ff506 acpi-cpufreq: Add compatibility for legacy AMD cpb sysfs knob
The powernow-k8 driver supported a sysfs knob called "cpb", which was
instantiated per CPU, but actually acted globally for the whole
system. To keep some compatibility with this feature, we re-introduce
this behavior here, but:
a) only enable it on AMD CPUs and
b) protect it with a Kconfig switch

I'd like to consider this feature obsolete. Lets keep it around for
some kernel versions and then phase it out.

034be8fd64 cpufreq: Add warning message to powernow-k8
cpufreq modules are often loaded from init scripts that assume that
all recent AMD systems will use powernow-k8.
To inform the user of the change of support and ease the transition
to acpi-cpufreq, emit a warning message.

3dc9a633f8 acpi-cpufreq: Add support for modern AMD CPUs
The programming model for P-states on modern AMD CPUs is very similar to
that of Intel and VIA. It makes sense to consolidate this support into one
driver rather than duplicating functionality between two of them. This
patch adds support for AMDs with hardware P-state control to acpi-cpufreq.

* 'x86-cpu-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip:
  x86, cpu: Fix detection of Celeron Covington stepping A1 and B0
  Documentation, ABI: Update L3 cache index disable text
  x86, AMD, cacheinfo: Fix L3 cache index disable checks
  x86, AMD, cacheinfo: Fix fallout caused by max3 conversion
  x86, cpu: Change NOP selection for certain Intel CPUs
  x86, cpu: Clean up and unify the NOP selection infrastructure
  x86, percpu: Use ASM_NOP4 instead of hardcoding P6_NOP4
  x86, cpu: Move AMD Elan Kconfig under "Processor family"

Fix up trivial conflicts in alternative handling (commit dc326fca2b
"x86, cpu: Clean up and unify the NOP selection infrastructure" removed
some hacky 5-byte instruction stuff, while commit d430d3d7e6 "jump
label: Introduce static_branch() interface" renamed HAVE_JUMP_LABEL to
CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL in the code that went away)
