commit 9505b98ccddc454008ca7efff90044e3e857c827 upstream.

pxa_cpufreq_init_voltages() is marked __init but usually inlined into
the non-__init pxa_cpufreq_init() function. When building with clang,
it can stay as a standalone function in a discarded section, and produce
this warning:

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x616a00): Section mismatch in reference from the function pxa_cpufreq_init() to the function .init.text:pxa_cpufreq_init_voltages()
The function pxa_cpufreq_init() references
the function __init pxa_cpufreq_init_voltages().
This is often because pxa_cpufreq_init lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of pxa_cpufreq_init_voltages is wrong.

commit 0373ca74831b0f93cd4cdbf7ad3aec3c33a479a5 upstream.

commit a307a1e6bc0d "cpufreq: s3c: use cpufreq_generic_init()"
accidentally broke cpufreq on s3c2410 and s3c2412.

These two platforms don't have a CPU frequency table and used to skip
calling cpufreq_table_validate_and_show() for them.  But with the
above commit, we started calling it unconditionally and that will
eventually fail as the frequency table pointer is NULL.

Fix this by calling cpufreq_table_validate_and_show() conditionally
again.

commit b8e11f7d2791bd9320be1c6e772a60b2aa093e45 upstream.

Commit 27ed3cd2ebf4 (cpufreq: conservative: Fix the logic in frequency
decrease checking) removed the 10 point substraction when comparing the
load against down_threshold but did not remove the related limit for the
down_threshold value.  As a result, down_threshold lower than 11 is not
allowed even though values from 1 to 10 do work correctly too. The
comment ("cannot be lower than 11 otherwise freq will not fall") also
does not apply after removing the substraction.

For this reason, allow down_threshold to take any value from 1 to 99
and fix the related comment.

The "goto err_armclk;" error path already does a clk_put(s3c_freq-&gt;hclk);

<title>cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix -&gt;set_policy() interface for no_turbo</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 983e600e88835f0321d1a0ea06f52d48b7b5a544 upstream.

When turbo is disabled, the -&gt;set_policy() interface is broken.

For example, when turbo is disabled and cpuinfo.max = 2900000 (full
max turbo frequency), setting the limits results in frequency less
than the requested one:
Set 1000000 KHz results in 0700000 KHz
Set 1500000 KHz results in 1100000 KHz
Set 2000000 KHz results in  1500000 KHz

This is because the limits-&gt;max_perf fraction is calculated using
the max turbo frequency as the reference, but when the max P-State is
capped in intel_pstate_get_min_max(), the reference is not the max
turbo P-State. This results in reducing max P-State.

One option is to always use max turbo as reference for calculating
limits. But this will not be correct. By definition the intel_pstate
sysfs limits, shows percentage of available performance. So when
BIOS has disabled turbo, the available performance is max non turbo.
So the max_perf_pct should still show 100%.

<title>cpufreq: Fix GOV_LIMITS handling for the userspace governor</title>

commit e43e94c1eda76dabd686ddf6f7825f54d747b310 upstream.

Currently, the userspace governor only updates frequency on GOV_LIMITS
if policy-&gt;cur falls outside policy-&gt;{min/max}. However, it is also
necessary to update current frequency on GOV_LIMITS to match the user
requested value if it can be achieved within the new policy-&gt;{max/min}.

This was previously the behaviour in the governor until commit d1922f0
("cpufreq: Simplify userspace governor") which incorrectly assumed that
policy-&gt;cur == user requested frequency via scaling_setspeed. This won't
be true if the user requested frequency falls outside policy-&gt;{min/max}.
Ex: a temporary thermal cap throttled the user requested frequency.

Fix this by storing the user requested frequency in a seperate variable.
The governor will then try to achieve this request on every GOV_LIMITS
change.

commit 7180dddf7c32c49975c7e7babf2b60ed450cb760 upstream.

The kernel may delay interrupts for a long time which can result in timers
being delayed. If this occurs the intel_pstate driver will crash with a
divide by zero error:

The kernel values for cpudata for CPU 113 were:

struct cpudata {
  cpu = 113,
  timer = {
    entry = {
      next = 0x0,
      prev = 0xdead000000200200
    },

    base = 0xffff883fe84ec001,
    function = 0xffffffff814a9100 &lt;intel_pstate_timer_func&gt;,
    data = 18446612406765768960,
&lt;snip&gt;
    i_gain = 0,
    d_gain = 0,
    deadband = 0,
    last_err = 22489
  },
  last_sample_time = {
    tv64 = 4063132438017305
  },
  prev_aperf = 287326796397463,
  prev_mperf = 251427432090198,
  sample = {
    core_pct_busy = 23081,
    aperf = 2937407,
    mperf = 3257884,
    freq = 2524484,
    time = {
      tv64 = 4063149215234118
    }
  }
}

which results in the time between samples = last_sample_time - sample.time
= 4063149215234118 - 4063132438017305 = 16777216813 which is 16.777 seconds.

The duration between reads of the APERF and MPERF registers overflowed a s32
sized integer in intel_pstate_get_scaled_busy()'s call to div_fp().  The result
is that int_tofp(duration_us) == 0, and the kernel attempts to divide by 0.

While the kernel shouldn't be delaying for a long time, it can and does
happen and the intel_pstate driver should not panic in this situation.  This
patch changes the div_fp() function to use div64_s64() to allow for "long"
division.  This will avoid the overflow condition on long delays.

[v2]: use div64_s64() in div_fp()

commit 7180dddf7c32c49975c7e7babf2b60ed450cb760 upstream.

The kernel may delay interrupts for a long time which can result in timers
being delayed. If this occurs the intel_pstate driver will crash with a
divide by zero error:

commit fa30dff9a81ea9fdc2e985a14fe14ce6393a3214 upstream.

div_s64() accepts the divisor parameter as s32. Helper div_fp()
also accepts divisor as int32_t.

So, remove the unnecessary int64_t type casting.

Commit 007bea098b86 (intel_pstate: Add setting voltage value for
baytrail P states.) introduced byt_set_pstate() with the assumption that
it would always be run by the CPU whose MSR is to be written by it.  It
turns out, however, that is not always the case in practice, so modify
byt_set_pstate() to enforce the MSR write done by it to always happen on
the right CPU.

commit cb57720bf79688d64854a0a43565aa52303c1f3f upstream.

If ACPI _PPC changed notification happens before governor was initiated
while kernel is booting, a NULL pointer dereference will be triggered:

The root cause is a race conditon -- cpufreq core and acpi-cpufreq driver
were initiated, but cpufreq_governor wasn't and _PPC changed notification
happened, __cpufreq_governor() was called within acpi_os_execute_deferred
kernel thread context.

To fix this panic issue, add pointer checking code in __cpufreq_governor()
before pointer policy-&gt;governor is to be dereferenced.

commit cb57720bf79688d64854a0a43565aa52303c1f3f upstream.

If ACPI _PPC changed notification happens before governor was initiated
while kernel is booting, a NULL pointer dereference will be triggered:
