The earlier implementation of governors used background timers and so
functions, mutex, etc had 'timer' keyword in their names.
But that's not true anymore. Replace 'timer' with 'update', as those
functions, variables are based around updates to frequency.

Commit d352cf47d9 (cpufreq: conservative: Do not use transition
notifications) overlooked the case when the "frequency step" used
by the conservative governor is small relative to the distances
between the available frequencies and broke the algorithm by
using policy->cur instead of the previously requested frequency
when computing the next one.
As a result, the governor may not be able to go outside of a narrow
range between two consecutive available frequencies.
Fix the problem by making the governor save the previously requested
frequency and select the next one relative that value (unless it is
out of range, in which case policy->cur will be used instead).

The conservative governor registers a transition notifier so it
can update its internal requested_freq value if it falls out of the
policy->min...policy->max range, but requested_freq is not really
necessary.
That value is used to track the frequency requested by the governor
previously, but policy->cur can be used instead of it and then the
governor will not have to worry about updating the tracked value when
the current frequency changes independently (for example, as a result
of min or max changes).
Accodringly, drop requested_freq from struct cs_policy_dbs_info
and modify cs_dbs_timer() to use policy->cur instead of it.
While at it, notice that __cpufreq_driver_target() clamps its
target_freq argument between policy->min and policy->max, so
the callers of it don't have to do that and make additional
changes in cs_dbs_timer() in accordance with that.
After these changes the transition notifier used by the conservative
governor is not necessary any more, so drop it, which also makes it
possible to drop the struct cs_governor definition and simplify the
code accordingly.

The 'initialized' field in struct cpufreq_governor is only used by
the conservative governor (as a usage counter) and the way that
happens is far from straightforward and arguably incorrect.
Namely, the value of 'initialized' is checked by
cpufreq_dbs_governor_init() and cpufreq_dbs_governor_exit() and
the results of those checks are passed (as the second argument) to
the ->init() and ->exit() callbacks in struct dbs_governor. Those
callbacks are only implemented by the ondemand and conservative
governors and ondemand doesn't use their second argument at all.
In turn, the conservative governor uses it to decide whether or not
to either register or unregister a transition notifier.
That whole mechanism is not only unnecessarily convoluted, but also
racy, because the 'initialized' field of struct cpufreq_governor is
updated in cpufreq_init_governor() and cpufreq_exit_governor() under
policy->rwsem which doesn't help if one of these functions is run
twice in parallel for different policies (which isn't impossible in
principle), for example.
Instead of it, add a proper usage counter to the conservative
governor and update it from cs_init() and cs_exit() which is
guaranteed to be non-racy, as those functions are only called
under gov_dbs_data_mutex which is global.
With that in place, drop the 'initialized' field from struct
cpufreq_governor as it is not used any more.

The design of the cpufreq governor API is not very straightforward,
as struct cpufreq_governor provides only one callback to be invoked
from different code paths for different purposes. The purpose it is
invoked for is determined by its second "event" argument, causing it
to act as a "callback multiplexer" of sorts.
Unfortunately, that leads to extra complexity in governors, some of
which implement the ->governor() callback as a switch statement
that simply checks the event argument and invokes a separate function
to handle that specific event.
That extra complexity can be eliminated by replacing the all-purpose
->governor() callback with a family of callbacks to carry out specific
governor operations: initialization and exit, start and stop and policy
limits updates. That also turns out to reduce the code size too, so
do it.

Some fields in struct od_cpu_dbs_info_s and struct cs_cpu_dbs_info_s
are only used for a limited set of CPUs. Namely, if a policy is
shared between multiple CPUs, those fields will only be used for one
of them (policy->cpu). This means that they really are per-policy
rather than per-CPU and holding room for them in per-CPU data
structures is generally wasteful. Also moving those fields into
per-policy data structures will allow some significant simplifications
to be made going forward.
For this reason, introduce struct cs_policy_dbs_info and
struct od_policy_dbs_info to hold those fields. Define each of the
new structures as an extension of struct policy_dbs_info (such that
struct policy_dbs_info is embedded in each of them) and introduce
new ->alloc and ->free governor callbacks to allocate and free
those structures, respectively, such that ->alloc() will return
a pointer to the struct policy_dbs_info embedded in the allocated
data structure and ->free() will take that pointer as its argument.
With that, modify the code accessing the data fields in question
in per-CPU data objects to look for them in the new structures
via the struct policy_dbs_info pointer available to it and drop
them from struct od_cpu_dbs_info_s and struct cs_cpu_dbs_info_s.

The ->store() callbacks of some tunable sysfs attributes of the
ondemand and conservative governors trigger immediate updates of
the CPU load information for all CPUs "governed" by the given
dbs_data by walking the cpu_dbs_info structures for all online
CPUs in the system and updating them.
This is questionable for two reasons. First, it may lead to a lot of
extra overhead on a system with many CPUs if the given dbs_data is
only associated with a few of them. Second, if governor tunables are
per-policy, the CPUs associated with the other sets of governor
tunables should not be updated.
To address this issue, use the observation that in all of the places
in question the update operation may be carried out in the same way
(because all of the tunables involved are now located in struct
dbs_data and readily available to the common code) and make the
code in those places invoke the same (new) helper function that
will carry out the update correctly.
That new function always checks the ignore_nice_load tunable value
and updates the CPUs' prev_cpu_nice data fields if that's set, which
wasn't done by the original code in store_io_is_busy(), but it
should have been done in there too.

The way the ->gov_check_cpu governor callback is used by the ondemand
and conservative governors is not really straightforward. Namely, the
governor calls dbs_check_cpu() that updates the load information for
the policy and the invokes ->gov_check_cpu() for the governor.
To get rid of that entanglement, notice that cpufreq_governor_limits()
doesn't need to call dbs_check_cpu() directly. Instead, it can simply
reset the sample delay to 0 which will cause a sample to be taken
immediately. The result of that is practically equivalent to calling
dbs_check_cpu() except that it will trigger a full update of governor
internal state and not just the ->gov_check_cpu() part.
Following that observation, make cpufreq_governor_limits() reset
the sample delay and turn dbs_check_cpu() into a function that will
simply evaluate the load and return the result called dbs_update().
That function can now be called by governors from the routines that
previously were pointed to by ->gov_check_cpu and those routines
can be called directly by each governor instead of dbs_check_cpu().
This way ->gov_check_cpu becomes unnecessary, so drop it.

It was left out earlier as the code was really too complex to get
that done easily. Things are sorted out very well now, however, and
the conservative governor can be modified to follow ondemand in that
respect.
Moreover, since the code needed to implement that in the

The ondemand and conservative governors use the global-attr or freq-attr
structures to represent sysfs attributes corresponding to their tunables
(which of them is actually used depends on whether or not different
policy objects can use the same governor with different tunables at the
same time and, consequently, on where those attributes are located in
sysfs).
Unfortunately, in the freq-attr case, the standard cpufreq show/store
sysfs attribute callbacks are applied to the governor tunable attributes
and they always acquire the policy->rwsem lock before carrying out the
operation. That may lead to an ABBA deadlock if governor tunable
attributes are removed under policy->rwsem while one of them is being
accessed concurrently (if sysfs attributes removal wins the race, it
will wait for the access to complete with policy->rwsem held while the
attribute callback will block on policy->rwsem indefinitely).
We attempted to address this issue by dropping policy->rwsem around
governor tunable attributes removal (that is, around invocations of the
->governor callback with the event arg equal to CPUFREQ_GOV_POLICY_EXIT)
in cpufreq_set_policy(), but that opened up race conditions that had not
been possible with policy->rwsem held all the time. Therefore
policy->rwsem cannot be dropped in cpufreq_set_policy() at any point,
but the deadlock situation described above must be avoided too.
To that end, use the observation that in principle governor tunables may
be represented by the same data type regardless of whether the governor
is system-wide or per-policy and introduce a new structure, struct
governor_attr, for representing them and new corresponding macros for
creating show/store sysfs callbacks for them. Also make their parent
kobject use a new kobject type whose default show/store callbacks are
not related to the standard core cpufreq ones in any way (and they don't
acquire policy->rwsem in particular).

There's no fundamental reason why those two structures have to be

Another benefit is that the common code does not need a pointer to

There are several races reported in cpufreq core around governors (only
ondemand and conservative) by different people.
There are at least two race scenarios present in governor code:
(a) Concurrent access/updates of governor internal structures.
It is possible that fields such as 'dbs_data->usage_count', etc. are
accessed simultaneously for different policies using same governor
structure (i.e. CPUFREQ_HAVE_GOVERNOR_PER_POLICY flag unset). And
because of this we can dereference bad pointers.
For example consider a system with two CPUs with separate 'struct
cpufreq_policy' instances. CPU0 governor: ondemand and CPU1: powersave.
CPU0 switching to powersave and CPU1 to ondemand:
CPU0 CPU1
store* store*
cpufreq_governor_exit() cpufreq_governor_init()
dbs_data = cdata->gdbs_data;
if (!--dbs_data->usage_count)
kfree(dbs_data);
dbs_data->usage_count++;
*Bad pointer dereference*
There are other races possible between EXIT and START/STOP/LIMIT as
well. Its really complicated.
(b) Switching governor state in bad sequence:
For example trying to switch a governor to START state, when the
governor is in EXIT state. There are some checks present in
__cpufreq_governor() but they aren't sufficient as they compare events
against 'policy->governor_enabled', where as we need to take governor's
state into account, which can be used by multiple policies.
These two issues need to be solved separately and the responsibility
should be properly divided between cpufreq and governor core.
The first problem is more about the governor core, as it needs to
protect its structures properly. And the second problem should be fixed
in cpufreq core instead of governor, as its all about sequence of
events.
This patch is trying to solve only the first problem.
There are two types of data we need to protect,
- 'struct common_dbs_data': No matter what, there is going to be a
single copy of this per governor.
- 'struct dbs_data': With CPUFREQ_HAVE_GOVERNOR_PER_POLICY flag set, we
will have per-policy copy of this data, otherwise a single copy.
Because of such complexities, the mutex present in 'struct dbs_data' is
insufficient to solve our problem. For example we need to protect
fetching of 'dbs_data' from different structures at the beginning of
cpufreq_governor_dbs(), to make sure it isn't currently being updated.
This can be fixed if we can guarantee serialization of event parsing
code for an individual governor. This is best solved with a mutex per
governor, and the placeholder for that is 'struct common_dbs_data'.
And so this patch moves the mutex from 'struct dbs_data' to 'struct
common_dbs_data' and takes it at the beginning and drops it at the end
of cpufreq_governor_dbs().

checks if target_freq is valid via a cpufreq_frequency_table_target()
call. So, drop the unnecessary duplicate check in *_check_cpu().

Chapter 14 of Documentation/CodingStyle says:
The preferred form for passing a size of a struct is the following:
p = kmalloc(sizeof(*p), ...);
The alternative form where struct name is spelled out hurts
readability and introduces an opportunity for a bug when the pointer
variable type is changed but the corresponding sizeof that is passed
to a memory allocator is not.
This wasn't followed consistently in drivers/cpufreq, let's make it
more consistent by always following this rule.

This patch addresses the following issues in the header files in the
cpufreq core:
- Include headers in ascending order, so that we don't add same
many times by mistake.
- <asm/> must be included after <linux/>, so that they override
whatever they need to.
- Remove unnecessary includes.
- Don't include files already included by cpufreq.h or
cpufreq_governor.h.

This sysfs file was called ignore_nice_load earlier and commit
4d5dcc4 (cpufreq: governor: Implement per policy instances of
governors) changed its name to ignore_nice by mistake.
Lets get it renamed back to its original name.

Use an inline function to evaluate freq_target to avoid duplicate code.
Also, define a macro for the default frequency step.

When we evaluate the CPU load for frequency decrease we have to compare
the load against down_threshold. There is no need to subtract 10 points
from down_threshold.
Instead, we have to use the default down_threshold or user's selection
unmodified.

sampling_down_factor tunable is unused since commit
8e677ce83b (4 years ago).
This patch restores the original functionality and documents the
tunable.

Currently we always calculate the CPU iowait time and add it to idle time.
If we are in ondemand and we use io_is_busy, we re-calculate iowait time
and we subtract it from idle time.
With this patch iowait time is calculated only when necessary avoiding
the double call to get_cpu_iowait_time_us. We use a parameter in
function get_cpu_idle_time to distinguish when the iowait time will be
added to idle time or not, without the need of keeping the prev_io_wait.

If we're on the lowest frequency, no need to calculate new freq.
Break out even earlier in this case.
