[CPUFREQ] powernow-k8: ignore out-of-range PstateStatus value

2008-11-25T18:38:29Z

A workaround for AMD CPU family 11h erratum 311 might cause that the P-state Status Register shows a "current P-state" which is larger than the "current P-state limit" in P-state Current Limit Register. For the wrong P-state value there is no ACPI _PSS object defined and powernow-k8/cpufreq can't determine the proper CPU frequency for that state. As a consequence this can cause a panic during boot (potentially with all recent kernel versions -- at least I have reproduced it with various 2.6.27 kernels and with the current .28 series), as an example: powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Turion(tm)X2 Ultra DualCore Mobile ZM-82 processors (2 \ ) powernow-k8: 0 : pstate 0 (2200 MHz) powernow-k8: 1 : pstate 1 (1100 MHz) powernow-k8: 2 : pstate 2 (600 MHz) BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffff88086e7528b8 IP: [] cpufreq_stats_update+0x4a/0x5f PGD 202063 PUD 0 Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP last sysfs file: CPU 1 Modules linked in: Pid: 1, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.28-rc3-dirty #16 RIP: 0010:[] [] cpufreq_stats_update+0x4a/0\ f Synaptics claims to have extended capabilities, but I'm not able to read them.<6\ 6 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: 0000000000000001 RCX: ffff88006e7528c0 RDX: 00000000ffffffff RSI: ffff88006e54af00 RDI: ffffffff808f056c RBP: 00000000fffee697 R08: 0000000000000003 R09: ffff88006e73f080 R10: 0000000000000001 R11: 00000000002191c0 R12: ffff88006fb83c10 R13: 00000000ffffffff R14: 0000000000000001 R15: 0000000000000000 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff88006fb50740(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 Unable to initialize Synaptics hardware.

In short, aftereffect of the wrong P-state is that cpufreq_stats_update() uses "-1" as index for some array in cpufreq_stats_update (unsigned int cpu) { ... if (stat->time_in_state) stat->time_in_state[stat->last_index] = cputime64_add(stat->time_in_state[stat->last_index], cputime_sub(cur_time, stat->last_time)); ... } Fortunately, the wrong P-state value is returned only if the core is in P-state 0. This fix solves the problem by detecting the out-of-range P-state, ignoring it, and using "0" instead. Cc: Mark Langsdorf Signed-off-by: Andreas Herrmann Signed-off-by: Dave Jones

[CPUFREQ][1/6] cpufreq: Add cpu number parameter to __cpufreq_driver_getavg()

2008-10-09T17:52:43Z

Add a cpu parameter to __cpufreq_driver_getavg(). This is needed for software cpufreq coordination where policy->cpu may not be same as the CPU on which we want to getavg frequency. A follow-on patch will use this parameter to getavg freq from all cpus in policy->cpus. Change since last patch.
