cpuidle: make a single register function for all

2013-04-23T11:45:22Z

The usual scheme to initialize a cpuidle driver on a SMP is: cpuidle_register_driver(drv); for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) { device = &per_cpu(cpuidle_dev, cpu); cpuidle_register_device(device); } This code is duplicated in each cpuidle driver. On UP systems, it is done this way: cpuidle_register_driver(drv); device = &per_cpu(cpuidle_dev, cpu); cpuidle_register_device(device); On UP, the macro 'for_each_cpu' does one iteration: #define for_each_cpu(cpu, mask) \ for ((cpu) = 0; (cpu) < 1; (cpu)++, (void)mask) Hence, the initialization loop is the same for UP than SMP. Beside, we saw different bugs / mis-initialization / return code unchecked in the different drivers, the code is duplicated including bugs. After fixing all these ones, it appears the initialization pattern is the same for everyone. Please note, some drivers are doing dev->state_count = drv->state_count. This is not necessary because it is done by the cpuidle_enable_device function in the cpuidle framework. This is true, until you have the same states for all your devices. Otherwise, the 'low level' API should be used instead with the specific initialization for the driver. Let's add a wrapper function doing this initialization with a cpumask parameter for the coupled idle states and use it for all the drivers. That will save a lot of LOC, consolidate the code, and the modifications in the future could be done in a single place. Another benefit is the consolidation of the cpuidle_device variable which is now in the cpuidle framework and no longer spread accross the different arch specific drivers.

cpuidle: remove en_core_tk_irqen flag

2013-04-23T11:45:22Z

The en_core_tk_irqen flag is set in all the cpuidle driver which means it is not necessary to specify this flag. Remove the flag and the code related to it. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano Acked-by: Kevin Hilman # for mach-omap2/* Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

cpuidle: initialize the broadcast timer framework

2013-03-31T23:10:28Z

The commit 89878baa73f0f1c679355006bd8632e5d78f96c2 introduced the CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP flag where we specify a specific idle state stops the local timer. Now use this flag to check at init time if one state will need the broadcast timer and, in this case, setup the broadcast timer framework. That prevents multiple code duplication in the drivers.

cpuidle : handle clockevent notify from the cpuidle framework

2013-03-31T23:10:27Z

When a cpu enters a deep idle state, the local timers are stopped and the time framework falls back to the timer device used as a broadcast timer. The different cpuidle drivers are calling clockevents_notify ENTER/EXIT when the idle state stops the local timer. Add a new flag CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP which can be set by the cpuidle drivers. If the flag is set, the cpuidle core code takes care of the notification on behalf of the driver to avoid pointless code duplication.

cpuidle: remove the power_specified field in the driver

2013-01-15T13:18:04Z

We realized that the power usage field is never filled and when it is filled for tegra, the power_specified flag is not set causing all of these values to be reset when the driver is initialized with set_power_state(). However, the power_specified flag can be simply removed under the assumption that the states are always backward sorted, which is the case with the current code. This change allows the menu governor select function and the cpuidle_play_dead() to be simplified. Moreover, the set_power_states() function can removed as it does not make sense any more. Drop the power_specified flag from struct cpuidle_driver and make the related changes as described above. As a consequence, this also fixes the bug where on the dynamic C-states system, the power fields are not initialized.

cpuidle: support multiple drivers

2012-11-14T23:34:23Z

With the tegra3 and the big.LITTLE [1] new architectures, several cpus with different characteristics (latencies and states) can co-exists on the system. The cpuidle framework has the limitation of handling only identical cpus. This patch removes this limitation by introducing the multiple driver support for cpuidle. This option is configurable at compile time and should be enabled for the architectures mentioned above. So there is no impact for the other platforms if the option is disabled. The option defaults to 'n'. Note the multiple drivers support is also compatible with the existing drivers, even if just one driver is needed, all the cpu will be tied to this driver using an extra small chunk of processor memory. The multiple driver support use a per-cpu driver pointer instead of a global variable and the accessor to this variable are done from a cpu context. In order to keep the compatibility with the existing drivers, the function 'cpuidle_register_driver' and 'cpuidle_unregister_driver' will register the specified driver for all the cpus. The semantic for the output of /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuidle/current_driver remains the same except the driver name will be related to the current cpu. The /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu[0-9]/cpuidle/driver/name files are added allowing to read the per cpu driver name.

cpuidle: move driver's refcount to cpuidle
