commit c0f7f5b6c69107ca92909512533e70258ee19188 upstream.

gpstate_timer_handler() uses synchronous smp_call to set the pstate
on the requested core. This causes the below hard lockup:

  smp_call_function_single+0x110/0x180 (unreliable)
  smp_call_function_any+0x180/0x250
  gpstate_timer_handler+0x1e8/0x580

  timer_interrupt+0x9c/0xe0
  decrementer_common+0x114/0x120
  -- interrupt: 901 at doorbell_global_ipi+0x34/0x50
  LR = arch_send_call_function_ipi_mask+0x120/0x130
  arch_send_call_function_ipi_mask+0x4c/0x130

  mprotect_fixup+0x140/0x340
  SyS_mprotect+0x1b4/0x350
  system_call+0x58/0x6c

One way to avoid this is removing the smp-call. We can ensure that the
timer always runs on one of the policy-cpus. If the timer gets
migrated to a cpu outside the policy then re-queue it back on the
policy-&gt;cpus. This way we can get rid of the smp-call which was being
used to set the pstate on the policy-&gt;cpus.

[ Upstream commit 70f6bf2a3b7e40c3f802b0ea837762a8bc6c1430 ]

When maxcpus=1 is in the kernel command line, the BP is responsible
for re-enabling the HWP - because currently only the APs invoke
intel_pstate_hwp_enable() during their online process - which might
put the system into unstable state after resume.

Fix this by enabling the HWP explicitly on BP during resume.

commit 3d41386d556db9f720e00de3e11e45f39cb5071c upstream.

With commit e948bc8fbee0 (cpufreq: Cap the default transition delay
value to 10 ms)  the cpufreq was not honouring the delay passed via
ACPI (PCCT). Due to which on ARM based platforms using CPPC the
cpufreq governor tries to change the frequency of CPUs faster than
expected.

This leads to continuous error messages like the following.
" ACPI CPPC: PCC check channel failed. Status=0 "

Earlier (without above commit) the default transition delay was
taken form the value passed from PCCT. Use the same value provided
by PCCT to set the transition_delay_us.

<title>powernv-cpufreq: Add helper to extract pstate from PMSR</title>

[ Upstream commit ee1f4a7dafa997816ff3de96155c6f3edc21c1e6 ]

On POWERNV platform, the fields for pstates in the Power Management
Status Register (PMSR) and the Power Management Control Register
(PMCR) are 8-bits wide. On POWER8 the pstates are negatively numbered
while on POWER9 they are positively numbered.

The device-tree exports pstates as 32-bit entries. The device-tree
implementation sign-extends the 8-bit pstate values to obtain the
corresponding 32-bit entry.

Eg: On POWER8, a pstate value 0x82 [-126] is represented in the
device-tree as 0xfffffff82 while on POWER9, the same value 0x82 [130]
is represented in the device-tree as 0x00000082.

The powernv-cpufreq driver implementation represents pstates using the
integer type. In multiple places in the driver, the code interprets
the pstates extracted from the PMSR as a signed byte and assigns it to
a integer variable to get the sign-extention.

On POWER9 platforms which have greater than 128 pstates, this results
in the driver performing incorrect sign-extention, and thereby
treating a legitimate pstate (say 130) as an invalid pstates (since it
is interpreted as -126).

This patch fixes the issue by implementing a helper function to
extract Pstates from PMSR register, and correctly sign-extend it to be
consistent with the values provided by the device-tree.

[ Upstream commit 1d0d064307cbfd8546841f6e9d94d02c55e45e1e ]

The commit e948bc8fbee0 ("cpufreq: Cap the default transition delay
value to 10 ms") caused a regression on EPIA-M min-ITX computer where
shutdown or reboot hangs occasionally with a print message like:

longhaul: Warning: Timeout while waiting for idle PCI bus
cpufreq: __target_index: Failed to change cpu frequency: -16

This probably happens because the cpufreq governor tries to change the
frequency of the CPU faster than allowed by the hardware.

Before the above commit, the default transition delay was set to 200 ms
for a transition_latency of 200000 ns. Lets revert back to that
transition delay value to fix it. Note that several other transition
delay values were tested like 20 ms and 30 ms and none of them have
resolved system hang issue completely.

[ Upstream commit a8b149d32b663c1a4105273295184b78f53d33cf ]

It is possible to remove a cpufreq governor module after
cpufreq_parse_governor() has returned success in
store_scaling_governor() and before cpufreq_set_policy()
acquires a reference to it, because the governor list is
not protected during that period and nothing prevents the
governor from being unregistered then.

Prevent that from happening by acquiring an extra reference
to the governor module temporarily in cpufreq_parse_governor(),
under cpufreq_governor_mutex, and dropping it in
store_scaling_governor(), when cpufreq_set_policy() returns.

Note that the second cpufreq_parse_governor() call site is fine,
because it only cares about the policy member of new_policy.

Prevent that from happening by acquiring an extra reference
to the governor module temporarily in cpufreq_parse_governor(),
under cpufreq_governor_mutex, and dropping it in
store_scaling_governor(), when cpufreq_set_policy() returns.

Note that the second cpufreq_parse_governor() call site is fine,
because it only cares about the policy member of new_policy.

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.

<title>x86/cpu: Rename cpu_data.x86_mask to cpu_data.x86_stepping</title>

<content type='text'>
commit b399151cb48db30ad1e0e93dd40d68c6d007b637 upstream.

x86_mask is a confusing name which is hard to associate with the
processor's stepping.

Additionally, correct an indent issue in lib/cpu.c.

commit 3fa4680b860bf48b437d6a2c039789c4abe202ae upstream.

Some OpenPOWER boxes can have same pstate values for nominal and
pmin pstates. In these boxes the current code will not initialize
'powernv_pstate_info.min' variable and result in erroneous CPU
frequency reporting. This patch fixes this problem.
