commit c2294a2f7853e6450361d078b65407bdaa6d1d11 upstream.

Ensure that no timer callback is running since we are about to free
the timer structure.  We cannot guarantee that the call back is called
on the CPU where the timer is running.

<title>cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix setting max_perf_pct in performance policy</title>

<id>urn:sha1:0d29536419e8608288753527f09c2e27ce03b7a3</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 36b4bed5cd8f6e17019fa7d380e0836872c7b367 upstream.

Code which changes policy to powersave changes also max_policy_pct based on
max_freq. Code which change max_perf_pct has upper limit base on value
max_policy_pct. When policy is changing from powersave back to performance
then max_policy_pct is not changed. Which means that changing max_perf_pct is
not possible to high values if max_freq was too low in powersave policy.

Test case:

$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
800000
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
3300000
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
performance
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/max_perf_pct
100

$ echo powersave &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
$ echo 800000 &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
$ echo 20 &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/max_perf_pct

$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
powersave
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
800000
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/max_perf_pct
20

$ echo performance &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
$ echo 3300000 &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
$ echo 100 &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/max_perf_pct

$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor
performance
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
3300000
$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/max_perf_pct
24

And now intel_pstate driver allows to set maximal value for max_perf_pct based
on max_policy_pct which is 24 for previous powersave max_freq 800000.

This patch will set default value for max_policy_pct when setting policy to
performance so it will allow to set also max value for max_perf_pct.

<title>intel_pstate: Set CPU number before accessing MSRs</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 179e8471673ce0249cd4ecda796008f7757e5bad upstream.

Ensure that cpu-&gt;cpu is set before writing MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL during CPU
initialization. Otherwise only cpu0 has its P-state set and all other
cores are left with their values unchanged.

In most cases, this is not too serious because the P-states will be set
correctly when the timer function is run.  But when the default governor
is set to performance, the per-CPU current_pstate stays the same forever
and no attempts are made to write the MSRs again.

<content type='text'>
commit 6cbd7ee10e2842a3d1f9b60abede1c8f3d1f1130 upstream.

KVM environments do not support APERF/MPERF MSRs. intel_pstate cannot
operate without these registers.

The previous validity checks in intel_pstate_msrs_not_valid() are
insufficent in nested KVMs.

<title>intel_pstate: Fail initialization if P-state information is missing</title>

<id>urn:sha1:61f7c17bad20ccb763a35317508e3833f1cd5069</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 98a947abdd54e5de909bebadfced1696ccad30cf upstream.

If pstate.current_pstate is 0 after the initial
intel_pstate_get_cpu_pstates(), this means that we were unable to
obtain any useful P-state information and there is no reason to
continue, so free memory and return an error in that case.

This fixes the following divide error occuring in a nested KVM
guest:

Intel P-state driver initializing.

<id>urn:sha1:d253d2a52676cfa3d89b8f0737a08ce7db665207</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch addresses Bug 60727
(https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60727)
which was due to the truncation of intermediate values in the
calculations, which causes the code to consistently underestimate the
current cpu frequency, specifically 100% cpu utilization was truncated
down to the setpoint of 97%. This patch fixes the problem by keeping
the results of all intermediate calculations as fixed point numbers
rather scaling them back and forth between integers and fixed point.

The expression in line 398 of intel_pstate.c causes the following
warning to be emitted:

drivers/cpufreq/intel_pstate.c:398:3: warning: left shift count &gt;= width of type

which happens because unsigned long is 32-bit on some architectures.

Fix that by using a helper u64 variable and simplify the code
slightly.
