2013-09-20cpufreq: return EEXIST instead of EBUSY for second registeringYinghai Lu
On systems that support intel_pstate, acpi_cpufreq fails to load, and udev keeps trying until trace gets filled up and kernel crashes. The root cause is driver return ret from cpufreq_register_driver(), because when some other driver takes over before, it will return EBUSY and then udev will keep trying ... cpufreq_register_driver() should return EEXIST instead so that the system can boot without appending intel_pstate=disable and still use intel_pstate.

2013-09-18cpufreq: unlock correct rwsem while updating policy->cpuViresh Kumar
Current code looks like this: WARN_ON(lock_policy_rwsem_write(cpu)); update_policy_cpu(policy, new_cpu); unlock_policy_rwsem_write(cpu); {lock|unlock}_policy_rwsem_write(cpu) takes/releases policy->cpu's rwsem. Because cpu is changing with the call to update_policy_cpu(), the unlock_policy_rwsem_write() will release the incorrect lock. The right solution would be to release the same lock as was taken earlier. Also update_policy_cpu() was also called from cpufreq_add_dev() without any locks and so its better if we move this locking to inside update_policy_cpu(). This patch fixes a regression introduced in 3.12 by commit f9ba680d23 (cpufreq: Extract the handover of policy cpu to a helper function).

2013-09-18cpufreq: Clear policy->cpus bits in __cpufreq_remove_dev_finish()Viresh Kumar
This broke after a recent change "cedb70a cpufreq: Split __cpufreq_remove_dev() into two parts" from Srivatsa. Consider a scenario where we have two CPUs in a policy (0 & 1) and we are removing CPU 1. On the call to __cpufreq_remove_dev_prepare() we have cleared 1 from policy->cpus and now on a call to __cpufreq_remove_dev_finish() we read cpumask_weight of policy->cpus, which will come as 1 and this code will behave as if we are removing the last CPU from policy :) Fix it by clearing the CPU mask in __cpufreq_remove_dev_finish() instead of __cpufreq_remove_dev_prepare().

2013-09-11cpufreq: Prevent problems in update_policy_cpu() if last_cpu == new_cpuSrivatsa S. Bhat
If update_policy_cpu() is invoked with the existing policy->cpu itself as the new-cpu parameter, then a lot of things can go terribly wrong. In its present form, update_policy_cpu() always assumes that the new-cpu is different from policy->cpu and invokes other functions to perform their respective updates. And those functions implement the actual update like this: per_cpu(..., new_cpu) = per_cpu(..., last_cpu); per_cpu(..., last_cpu) = NULL; Thus, when new_cpu == last_cpu, the final NULL assignment makes the per-cpu references vanish into thin air! (memory leak). From there, it leads to more problems: cpufreq_stats_create_table() now doesn't find the per-cpu reference and hence tries to create a new sysfs-group; but sysfs already had created the group earlier, so it complains that it cannot create a duplicate filename. In short, the repercussions of a rather innocuous invocation of update_policy_cpu() can turn out to be pretty nasty. Ideally update_policy_cpu() should handle this situation (new == last) gracefully, and not lead to such severe problems. So fix it by adding an appropriate check. Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.

2013-09-11cpufreq: Restructure if/else block to avoid unintended behaviorSrivatsa S. Bhat
In __cpufreq_remove_dev_prepare(), the code which decides whether to remove the sysfs link or nominate a new policy cpu, is governed by an if/else block with a rather complex set of conditionals. Worse, they harbor a subtlety which leads to certain unintended behavior. The code looks like this: if (cpu != policy->cpu && !frozen) { sysfs_remove_link(&dev->kobj, "cpufreq"); } else if (cpus > 1) { new_cpu = cpufreq_nominate_new_policy_cpu(...); ... update_policy_cpu(..., new_cpu); } The original intention was: If the CPU going offline is not policy->cpu, just remove the link. On the other hand, if the CPU going offline is the policy->cpu itself, handover the policy->cpu job to some other surviving CPU in that policy. But because the 'if' condition also includes the 'frozen' check, now there are *two* possibilities by which we can enter the 'else' block: 1. cpu == policy->cpu (intended) 2. cpu != policy->cpu && frozen (unintended) Due to the second (unintended) scenario, we end up spuriously nominating a CPU as the policy->cpu, even when the existing policy->cpu is alive and well. This can cause problems further down the line, especially when we end up nominating the same policy->cpu as the new one (ie., old == new), because it totally confuses update_policy_cpu(). To avoid this mess, restructure the if/else block to only do what was originally intended, and thus prevent any unwelcome surprises. Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.

2013-09-11cpufreq: Fix crash in cpufreq-stats during suspend/resumeSrivatsa S. Bhat
Stephen Warren reported that the cpufreq-stats code hits a NULL pointer dereference during the second attempt to suspend a system. He also pin-pointed the problem to commit 5302c3f "cpufreq: Perform light-weight init/teardown during suspend/resume". That commit actually ensured that the cpufreq-stats table and the cpufreq-stats sysfs entries are *not* torn down (ie., not freed) during suspend/resume, which makes it all the more surprising. However, it turns out that the root-cause is not that we access an already freed memory, but that the reference to the allocated memory gets moved around and we lose track of that during resume, leading to the reported crash in a subsequent suspend attempt. In the suspend path, during CPU offline, the value of policy->cpu is updated by choosing one of the surviving CPUs in that policy, as long as there is atleast one CPU in that policy. And cpufreq_stats_update_policy_cpu() is invoked to update the reference to the stats structure by assigning it to the new CPU. However, in the resume path, during CPU online, we end up assigning a fresh CPU as the policy->cpu, without letting cpufreq-stats know about this. Thus the reference to the stats structure remains (incorrectly) associated with the old CPU. So, in a subsequent suspend attempt, during CPU offline, we end up accessing an incorrect location to get the stats structure, which eventually leads to the NULL pointer dereference. Fix this by letting cpufreq-stats know about the update of the policy->cpu during CPU online in the resume path. (Also, move the update_policy_cpu() function higher up in the file, so that __cpufreq_add_dev() can invoke it). Reported-and-tested-by: Stephen Warren <swarren@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.

2013-09-10Revert "cpufreq: make sure frequency transitions are serialized"Rafael J. Wysocki
Commit 7c30ed5 (cpufreq: make sure frequency transitions are serialized) attempted to serialize frequency transitions by adding checks to the CPUFREQ_PRECHANGE and CPUFREQ_POSTCHANGE notifications. However, it assumed that the notifications will always originate from the driver's .target() callback, but they also can be triggered by cpufreq_out_of_sync() and that leads to warnings like this on some systems: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 14543 at drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.c:317 __cpufreq_notify_transition+0x238/0x260() In middle of another frequency transition accompanied by a call trace similar to this one: [<ffffffff81720daa>] dump_stack+0x46/0x58 [<ffffffff8106534c>] warn_slowpath_common+0x8c/0xc0 [<ffffffff815b8560>] ? acpi_cpufreq_target+0x320/0x320 [<ffffffff81065436>] warn_slowpath_fmt+0x46/0x50 [<ffffffff815b1ec8>] __cpufreq_notify_transition+0x238/0x260 [<ffffffff815b33be>] cpufreq_notify_transition+0x3e/0x70 [<ffffffff815b345d>] cpufreq_out_of_sync+0x6d/0xb0 [<ffffffff815b370c>] cpufreq_update_policy+0x10c/0x160 [<ffffffff815b3760>] ? cpufreq_update_policy+0x160/0x160 [<ffffffff81413813>] cpufreq_set_cur_state+0x8c/0xb5 [<ffffffff814138df>] processor_set_cur_state+0xa3/0xcf [<ffffffff8158e13c>] thermal_cdev_update+0x9c/0xb0 [<ffffffff8159046a>] step_wise_throttle+0x5a/0x90 [<ffffffff8158e21f>] handle_thermal_trip+0x4f/0x140 [<ffffffff8158e377>] thermal_zone_device_update+0x57/0xa0 [<ffffffff81415b36>] acpi_thermal_check+0x2e/0x30 [<ffffffff81415ca0>] acpi_thermal_notify+0x40/0xdc [<ffffffff813e7dbd>] acpi_device_notify+0x19/0x1b [<ffffffff813f8241>] acpi_ev_notify_dispatch+0x41/0x5c [<ffffffff813e3fbe>] acpi_os_execute_deferred+0x25/0x32 [<ffffffff81081060>] process_one_work+0x170/0x4a0 [<ffffffff81082121>] worker_thread+0x121/0x390 [<ffffffff81082000>] ? manage_workers.isra.20+0x170/0x170 [<ffffffff81088fe0>] kthread+0xc0/0xd0 [<ffffffff81088f20>] ? flush_kthread_worker+0xb0/0xb0 [<ffffffff8173582c>] ret_from_fork+0x7c/0xb0 [<ffffffff81088f20>] ? flush_kthread_worker+0xb0/0xb0 For this reason, revert commit 7c30ed5 along with the fix 266c13d (cpufreq: Fix serialization of frequency transitions) on top of it and we will revisit the serialization problem later.

2013-09-10cpufreq: Synchronize the cpufreq store_*() routines with CPU hotplugSrivatsa S. Bhat
The functions that are used to write to cpufreq sysfs files (such as store_scaling_max_freq()) are not hotplug safe. They can race with CPU hotplug tasks and lead to problems such as trying to acquire an already destroyed timer-mutex etc. Eg: __cpufreq_remove_dev() __cpufreq_governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP); policy->governor->governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP); cpufreq_governor_dbs() case CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP: mutex_destroy(&cpu_cdbs->timer_mutex) cpu_cdbs->cur_policy = NULL; <PREEMPT> store() __cpufreq_set_policy() __cpufreq_governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS); policy->governor->governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS); case CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS: mutex_lock(&cpu_cdbs->timer_mutex); <-- Warning (destroyed mutex) if (policy->max < cpu_cdbs->cur_policy->cur) <- cur_policy == NULL So use get_online_cpus()/put_online_cpus() in the store_*() functions, to synchronize with CPU hotplug. However, there is an additional point to note here: some parts of the CPU teardown in the cpufreq subsystem are done in the CPU_POST_DEAD stage, with cpu_hotplug.lock *released*. So, using the get/put_online_cpus() functions alone is insufficient; we should also ensure that we don't race with those latter steps in the hotplug sequence. We can easily achieve this by checking if the CPU is online before proceeding with the store, since the CPU would have been marked offline by the time the CPU_POST_DEAD notifiers are executed.

2013-09-10cpufreq: Invoke __cpufreq_remove_dev_finish() after releasing cpu_hotplug.lockSrivatsa S. Bhat
__cpufreq_remove_dev_finish() handles the kobject cleanup for a CPU going offline. But because we destroy the kobject towards the end of the CPU offline phase, there are certain race windows where a task can try to write to a cpufreq sysfs file (eg: using store_scaling_max_freq()) while we are taking that CPU offline, and this can bump up the kobject refcount, which in turn might hinder the CPU offline task from running to completion. (It can also cause other more serious problems such as trying to acquire a destroyed timer-mutex etc., depending on the exact stage of the cleanup at which the task managed to take a new refcount). To fix the race window, we will need to synchronize those store_*() call-sites with CPU hotplug, using get_online_cpus()/put_online_cpus(). However, that in turn can cause a total deadlock because it can end up waiting for the CPU offline task to complete, with incremented refcount! Write to sysfs CPU offline task -------------- ---------------- kobj_refcnt++ Acquire cpu_hotplug.lock get_online_cpus(); Wait for kobj_refcnt to drop to zero **DEADLOCK** A simple way to avoid this problem is to perform the kobject cleanup in the CPU offline path, with the cpu_hotplug.lock *released*. That is, we can perform the wait-for-kobj-refcnt-to-drop as well as the subsequent cleanup in the CPU_POST_DEAD stage of CPU offline, which is run with cpu_hotplug.lock released. Doing this helps us avoid deadlocks due to holding kobject refcounts and waiting on each other on the cpu_hotplug.lock. (Note: We can't move all of the cpufreq CPU offline steps to the CPU_POST_DEAD stage, because certain things such as stopping the governors have to be done before the outgoing CPU is marked offline. So retain those parts in the CPU_DOWN_PREPARE stage itself). Reported-by: Stephen Boyd <sboyd@codeaurora.org> Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.

2013-09-10cpufreq: Split __cpufreq_remove_dev() into two partsSrivatsa S. Bhat
During CPU offline, the cpufreq core invokes __cpufreq_remove_dev() to perform work such as stopping the cpufreq governor, clearing the CPU from the policy structure etc, and finally cleaning up the kobject. There are certain subtle issues related to the kobject cleanup, and it would be much easier to deal with them if we separate that part from the rest of the cleanup-work in the CPU offline phase. So split the __cpufreq_remove_dev() function into 2 parts: one that handles the kobject cleanup, and the other that handles the rest of the work.

2013-09-10cpufreq: serialize calls to __cpufreq_governor()Viresh Kumar
We can't take a big lock around __cpufreq_governor() as this causes recursive locking for some cases. But calls to this routine must be serialized for every policy. Otherwise we can see some unpredictable events. For example, consider following scenario: __cpufreq_remove_dev() __cpufreq_governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP); policy->governor->governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP); cpufreq_governor_dbs() case CPUFREQ_GOV_STOP: mutex_destroy(&cpu_cdbs->timer_mutex) cpu_cdbs->cur_policy = NULL; <PREEMPT> store() __cpufreq_set_policy() __cpufreq_governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS); policy->governor->governor(policy, CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS); case CPUFREQ_GOV_LIMITS: mutex_lock(&cpu_cdbs->timer_mutex); <-- Warning (destroyed mutex) if (policy->max < cpu_cdbs->cur_policy->cur) <- cur_policy == NULL And so store() will eventually result in a crash if cur_policy is NULL at this point.

2013-08-07cpufreq: Do not hold driver module references for additional policy CPUsRafael J. Wysocki
The cpufreq core is a little inconsistent in the way it uses the driver module refcount. Namely, if __cpufreq_add_dev() is called for a CPU that doesn't share the policy object with any other CPUs, the driver module refcount it grabs to start with will be dropped by it before returning and will be equal to whatever it had been before that function was invoked. However, if the given CPU does share the policy object with other CPUs, either cpufreq_add_policy_cpu() is called to link the new CPU to the existing policy, or cpufreq_add_dev_symlink() is used to link the other CPUs sharing the policy with it to the just created policy object. In that case, because both cpufreq_add_policy_cpu() and cpufreq_add_dev_symlink() call cpufreq_cpu_get() for the given policy (the latter possibly many times) without the balancing cpufreq_cpu_put() (unless there is an error), the driver module refcount will be left by __cpufreq_add_dev() with a nonzero value (different from the initial one). To remove that inconsistency make cpufreq_add_policy_cpu() execute cpufreq_cpu_put() for the given policy before returning, which decrements the driver module refcount so that it will be equal to its initial value after __cpufreq_add_dev() returns. Also remove the cpufreq_cpu_get() call from cpufreq_add_dev_symlink(), since both the policy refcount and the driver module refcount are nonzero when it is called and they don't need to be bumped up by it. Accordingly, drop the cpufreq_cpu_put() from __cpufreq_remove_dev(), since it is only necessary to balance the cpufreq_cpu_get() called by cpufreq_add_policy_cpu() or cpufreq_add_dev_symlink().

2013-08-07cpufreq: Preserve policy structure across suspend/resumeSrivatsa S. Bhat
To perform light-weight cpu-init and teardown in the cpufreq subsystem during suspend/resume, we need to separate out the 2 main functionalities of the cpufreq CPU hotplug callbacks, as outlined below: 1. Init/tear-down of core cpufreq and CPU-specific components, which are critical to the correct functioning of the cpufreq subsystem. 2. Init/tear-down of cpufreq sysfs files during suspend/resume. The first part requires accurate updates to the policy structure such as its ->cpus and ->related_cpus masks, whereas the second part requires that the policy->kobj structure is not released or re-initialized during suspend/resume. To handle both these requirements, we need to allow updates to the policy structure throughout suspend/resume, but prevent the structure from getting freed up. Also, we must have a mechanism by which the cpu-up callbacks can restore the policy structure, without allocating things afresh. (That also helps avoid memory leaks). To achieve this, we use 2 schemes: a. Use a fallback per-cpu storage area for preserving the policy structures during suspend, so that they can be restored during resume appropriately. b. Use the 'frozen' flag to determine when to free or allocate the policy structure vs when to restore the policy from the saved fallback storage. Thus we can successfully preserve the structure across suspend/resume. Effectively, this helps us complete the separation of the 'light-weight' and the 'full' init/tear-down sequences in the cpufreq subsystem, so that this can be made use of in the suspend/resume scenario.

2013-08-07cpufreq: Fix misplaced call to cpufreq_update_policy()Srivatsa S. Bhat
The call to cpufreq_update_policy() is placed in the CPU hotplug callback of cpufreq_stats, which has a higher priority than the CPU hotplug callback of cpufreq-core. As a result, during CPU_ONLINE/CPU_ONLINE_FROZEN, we end up calling cpufreq_update_policy() *before* calling cpufreq_add_dev() ! And for uninitialized CPUs, it just returns silently, not doing anything. To add to that, cpufreq_stats is not even the right place to call cpufreq_update_policy() to begin with. The cpufreq core ought to handle this in its own callback, from an elegance/relevance perspective. So move the invocation of cpufreq_update_policy() to cpufreq_cpu_callback, and place it *after* cpufreq_add_dev(). Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.

2013-07-30cpufreq: Fix cpufreq driver module refcount balance after suspend/resumeRafael J. Wysocki
Since cpufreq_cpu_put() called by __cpufreq_remove_dev() drops the driver module refcount, __cpufreq_remove_dev() causes that refcount to become negative for the cpufreq driver after a suspend/resume cycle. This is not the only bad thing that happens there, however, because kobject_put() should only be called for the policy kobject at this point if the CPU is not the last one for that policy. Namely, if the given CPU is the last one for that policy, the policy kobject's refcount should be 1 at this point, as set by cpufreq_add_dev_interface(), and only needs to be dropped once for the kobject to go away. This actually happens under the cpu == 1 check, so it need not be done before by cpufreq_cpu_put(). On the other hand, if the given CPU is not the last one for that policy, this means that cpufreq_add_policy_cpu() has been called at least once for that policy and cpufreq_cpu_get() has been called for it too. To balance that cpufreq_cpu_get(), we need to call cpufreq_cpu_put() in that case. Thus, to fix the described problem and keep the reference counters balanced in both cases, move the cpufreq_cpu_get() call in __cpufreq_remove_dev() to the code path executed only for CPUs that share the policy with other CPUs.

2013-07-14cpufreq: delete __cpuinit usage from all cpufreq filesPaul Gortmaker
The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time") is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created with improper use of the various __init prefixes. After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone, we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h. This removes all the drivers/cpufreq uses of the __cpuinit macros from all C files.

2013-07-15cpufreq: Revert commit a66b2e to fix suspend/resume regressionSrivatsa S. Bhat
commit a66b2e (cpufreq: Preserve sysfs files across suspend/resume) has unfortunately caused several things in the cpufreq subsystem to break subtly after a suspend/resume cycle. The intention of that patch was to retain the file permissions of the cpufreq related sysfs files across suspend/resume. To achieve that, the commit completely removed the calls to cpufreq_add_dev() and __cpufreq_remove_dev() during suspend/resume transitions. But the problem is that those functions do 2 kinds of things: 1. Low-level initialization/tear-down that are critical to the correct functioning of cpufreq-core. 2. Kobject and sysfs related initialization/teardown. Ideally we should have reorganized the code to cleanly separate these two responsibilities, and skipped only the sysfs related parts during suspend/resume. Since we skipped the entire callbacks instead (which also included some CPU and cpufreq-specific critical components), cpufreq subsystem started behaving erratically after suspend/resume. So revert the commit to fix the regression. We'll revisit and address the original goal of that commit separately, since it involves quite a bit of careful code reorganization and appears to be non-trivial. (While reverting the commit, note that another commit f51e1eb (cpufreq: Fix cpufreq regression after suspend/resume) already reverted part of the original set of changes. So revert only the remaining ones). Signed-off-by: Srivatsa S.

Commit 7c30ed ("cpufreq: make sure frequency transitions are serialized") interacts poorly with systems that have a single core freqency for all cores. On such systems we have a single policy for all cores with several CPUs. When we do a frequency transition the governor calls the pre and post change notifiers which causes cpufreq_notify_transition() per CPU. Since the policy is the same for all of them all CPUs after the first and the warnings added are generated by checking a per-policy flag the warnings will be triggered for all cores after the first. Fix this by allowing notifier to be called for n times. Where n is the number of cpus in policy->cpus.
