 "Once again, cpufreq is the most active development area, mostly
  because of the new feature additions and documentation updates in the
  amd-pstate driver, but there are also changes in the cpufreq core
  related to boost support and other assorted updates elsewhere.

  Next up are power capping changes due to the major cleanup of the
  Intel RAPL driver.

  On the cpuidle front, a new C-states table for Intel Panther Lake is
  added to the intel_idle driver, the stopped tick handling in the menu
  and teo governors is updated, and there are a couple of cleanups.

  Apart from the above, support for Tegra114 is added to devfreq and
  there are assorted cleanups of that code, there are also two updates
  of the operating performance points (OPP) library, two minor updates
  related to hibernation, and cpupower utility man pages updates and
  cleanups.

  Specifics:

   - Update qcom-hw DT bindings to include Eliza hardware (Abel Vesa)

   - Update cpufreq-dt-platdev blocklist (Faruque Ansari)

   - Minor updates to driver and dt-bindings for Tegra (Thierry Reding,
     Rosen Penev)

   - Add MAINTAINERS entry for CPPC driver (Viresh Kumar)

   - Add support for new features: CPPC performance priority, Dynamic
     EPP, Raw EPP, and new unit tests for them to amd-pstate (Gautham
     Shenoy, Mario Limonciello)

   - Fix sysfs files being present when HW missing and broken/outdated
     documentation in the amd-pstate driver (Ninad Naik, Gautham Shenoy)

   - Pass the policy to cpufreq_driver-&gt;adjust_perf() to avoid using
     cpufreq_cpu_get() in the .adjust_perf() callback in amd-pstate
     which leads to a scheduling-while-atomic bug (K Prateek Nayak)

   - Clean up dead code in Kconfig for cpufreq (Julian Braha)

   - Remove max_freq_req update for pre-existing cpufreq policy and add
     a boost_freq_req QoS request to save the boost constraint instead
     of overwriting the last scaling_max_freq constraint (Pierre
     Gondois)

   - Embed cpufreq QoS freq_req objects in cpufreq policy so they all
     are allocated in one go along with the policy to simplify lifetime
     rules and avoid error handling issues (Viresh Kumar)

   - Use DMI max speed when CPPC is unavailable in the acpi-cpufreq
     scaling driver (Henry Tseng)

   - Switch policy_is_shared() in cpufreq to using cpumask_nth() instead
     of cpumask_weight() because the former is more efficient (Yury
     Norov)

   - Use sysfs_emit() in sysfs show functions for cpufreq governor
     attributes (Thorsten Blum)

   - Update intel_pstate to stop returning an error when "off" is
     written to its status sysfs attribute while the driver is already
     off (Fabio De Francesco)

   - Include current frequency in the debug message printed by
     __cpufreq_driver_target() (Pengjie Zhang)

   - Refine stopped tick handling in the menu cpuidle governor and
     rearrange stopped tick handling in the teo cpuidle governor (Rafael
     Wysocki)

   - Add Panther Lake C-states table to the intel_idle driver (Artem
     Bityutskiy)

   - Clean up dead dependencies on CPU_IDLE in Kconfig (Julian Braha)

   - Simplify cpuidle_register_device() with guard() (Huisong Li)

   - Use performance level if available to distinguish between rates in
     OPP debugfs (Manivannan Sadhasivam)

   - Fix scoped_guard in dev_pm_opp_xlate_required_opp() (Viresh Kumar)

   - Return -ENODATA if the snapshot image is not loaded (Alberto
     Garcia)

   - Remove inclusion of crypto/hash.h from hibernate_64.c on x86 (Eric
     Biggers)

   - Clean up and rearrange the intel_rapl power capping driver to make
     the respective interface drivers (TPMI, MSR, and MMOI) hold their
     own settings and primitives and consolidate PL4 and PMU support
     flags into rapl_defaults (Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan)

   - Correct kernel-doc function parameter names in the power capping
     core code (Randy Dunlap)

   - Remove unneeded casting for HZ_PER_KHZ in devfreq (Andy Shevchenko)

   - Use _visible attribute to replace create/remove_sysfs_files() in
     devfreq (Pengjie Zhang)

   - Add Tegra114 support to activity monitor device in tegra30-devfreq
     as a preparation to upcoming EMC controller support (Svyatoslav
     Ryhel)

   - Fix mistakes in cpupower man pages, add the boost and epp options
     to the cpupower-frequency-info man page, and add the perf-bias
     option to the cpupower-info man page (Roberto Ricci)

   - Remove unnecessary extern declarations from getopt.h in arguments
     parsing functions in cpufreq-set, cpuidle-info, cpuidle-set,
     cpupower-info, and cpupower-set utilities (Kaushlendra Kumar)"

<title>cpufreq: acpi-cpufreq: use DMI max speed when CPPC is unavailable</title>

<id>16fb8d8a0e050e8f151da7dd2e03ccc500dfd8da</id>
<content type='text'>
On AMD Ryzen Embedded V1780B (Family 17h, Zen 1), the BIOS does not
provide ACPI _CPC objects and the CPU does not support MSR-based CPPC
(X86_FEATURE_CPPC).  The _PSS table only lists nominal P-states
(P0 = 3350 MHz), so when get_max_boost_ratio() fails at
cppc_get_perf_caps(), cpuinfo_max_freq reports only the base frequency
instead of the rated boost frequency (3600 MHz).

  dmesg:
    ACPI CPPC: No CPC descriptor for CPU:0
    acpi_cpufreq: CPU0: Unable to get performance capabilities (-19)

cppc-cpufreq already has a DMI fallback (cppc_get_dmi_max_khz()) that
reads the processor max speed from SMBIOS Type 4.  Export it and reuse
it in acpi-cpufreq as a last-resort source for the boost frequency.

A sanity check ensures the DMI value is above the _PSS P0 frequency
and within 2x of it; values outside that range are ignored and the
existing arch_set_max_freq_ratio() path is taken instead.  The 2x
upper bound is based on a survey of the AMD Ryzen Embedded V1000
series, where the highest boost-to-base ratio is 1.8x (V1404I:
2.0 GHz base / 3.6 GHz boost).

The DMI lookup and sanity check are wrapped in a helper,
acpi_cpufreq_resolve_max_freq(), which falls through to
arch_set_max_freq_ratio() if the DMI value is absent or
out of range.

Tested on AMD Ryzen Embedded V1780B with v7.0-rc4:

  Before: cpuinfo_max_freq = 3350000 (base only)
  After:  cpuinfo_max_freq = 3600000 (includes boost)

Currently, the `Reference Performance` register is read every time
the CPU frequency is sampled in `cppc_get_perf_ctrs()`. This function
is on the hot path of the cppc_cpufreq driver.

Reference Performance indicates the performance level that corresponds
to the Reference Counter incrementing and is not expected to change
dynamically during runtime (unlike the Delivered and Reference counters).

Reading this register in the hot path incurs unnecessary overhead,
particularly on platforms where CPC registers are located in the PCC
(Platform Communication Channel) subspace. This patch moves
`reference_perf` from the dynamic feedback counters structure
(`cppc_perf_fb_ctrs`) to the static capabilities structure
(`cppc_perf_caps`).

<title>ACPI: CPPC: add APIs and sysfs interface for perf_limited</title>

<content type='text'>
Add sysfs interface to read/write the Performance Limited register.

The Performance Limited register indicates to the OS that an
unpredictable event (like thermal throttling) has limited processor
performance. It contains two sticky bits set by the platform:
  - Bit 0 (Desired_Excursion): Set when delivered performance is
    constrained below desired performance. Not used when Autonomous
    Selection is enabled.
  - Bit 1 (Minimum_Excursion): Set when delivered performance is
    constrained below minimum performance.

These bits remain set until OSPM explicitly clears them. The write
operation accepts a bitmask of bits to clear:
  - Write 0x1 to clear bit 0
  - Write 0x2 to clear bit 1
  - Write 0x3 to clear both bits

This enables users to detect if platform throttling impacted a workload.
Users clear the register before execution, run the workload, then check
afterward - if set, hardware throttling occurred during that time window.

The interface is exposed as:
  /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/cpufreq/perf_limited

Add cppc_get_perf() function to read values of performance control
registers including desired_perf, min_perf, max_perf, energy_perf,
and auto_sel.

This provides a read interface to complement the existing
cppc_set_perf() write interface for performance control registers.

Note that auto_sel is read by cppc_get_perf() but not written by
cppc_set_perf() to avoid unintended mode changes during performance
updates. It can be updated with existing dedicated cppc_set_auto_sel()
API.

Use cppc_get_perf() in cppc_cpufreq_get_cpu_data() to initialize
perf_ctrls with current hardware register values during cpufreq
policy initialization.

Add cppc_get_perf() function to read values of performance control
registers including desired_perf, min_perf, max_perf, energy_perf,
and auto_sel.

This provides a read interface to complement the existing
cppc_set_perf() write interface for performance control registers.

Note that auto_sel is read by cppc_get_perf() but not written by
cppc_set_perf() to avoid unintended mode changes during performance

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "By the number of commits, cpufreq is the leading party (again) and the
  most visible change there is the removal of the omap-cpufreq driver
  that has not been used for a long time (good riddance). There are also
  quite a few changes in the cppc_cpufreq driver, mostly related to
  fixing its frequency invariance engine in the case when the CPPC
  registers used by it are not in PCC. In addition to that, support for
  AM62L3 is added to the ti-cpufreq driver and the cpufreq-dt-platdev
  list is updated for some platforms. The remaining cpufreq changes are
  assorted fixes and cleanups.

  Next up is cpuidle and the changes there are dominated by intel_idle
  driver updates, mostly related to the new command line facility
  allowing users to adjust the list of C-states used by the driver.
  There are also a few updates of cpuidle governors, including two menu
  governor fixes and some refinements of the teo governor, and a
  MAINTAINERS update adding Christian Loehle as a cpuidle reviewer.
  [Thanks for stepping up Christian!]

  The most significant update related to system suspend and hibernation
  is the one to stop freezing the PM runtime workqueue during system PM
  transitions which allows some deadlocks to be avoided. There is also a
  fix for possible concurrent bit field updates in the core device
  suspend code and a few other minor fixes.

  Apart from the above, several drivers are updated to discard the
  return value of pm_runtime_put() which is going to be converted to a
  void function as soon as everybody stops using its return value, PL4
  support for Ice Lake is added to the Intel RAPL power capping driver,
  and there are assorted cleanups, documentation fixes, and some
  cpupower utility improvements.

  Specifics:

   - Remove the unused omap-cpufreq driver (Andreas Kemnade)

   - Optimize error handling code in cpufreq_boost_trigger_state() and
     make cpufreq_boost_trigger_state() return -EOPNOTSUPP if no policy
     supports boost (Lifeng Zheng)

   - Update cpufreq-dt-platdev list for tegra, qcom, TI (Aaron Kling,
     Dhruva Gole, and Konrad Dybcio)

   - Minor improvements to the cpufreq and cpumask rust implementation
     (Alexandre Courbot, Alice Ryhl, Tamir Duberstein, and Yilin Chen)

   - Add support for AM62L3 SoC to the ti-cpufreq driver (Dhruva Gole)

   - Update arch_freq_scale in the CPPC cpufreq driver's frequency
     invariance engine (FIE) in scheduler ticks if the related CPPC
     registers are not in PCC (Jie Zhan)

   - Assorted minor cleanups and improvements in ARM cpufreq drivers
     (Juan Martinez, Felix Gu, Luca Weiss, and Sergey Shtylyov)

   - Add generic helpers for sysfs show/store to cppc_cpufreq (Sumit
     Gupta)

   - Make the scaling_setspeed cpufreq sysfs attribute return the actual
     requested frequency to avoid confusion (Pengjie Zhang)

   - Simplify the idle CPU time granularity test in the ondemand cpufreq
     governor (Frederic Weisbecker)

   - Enable asym capacity in intel_pstate only when CPU SMT is not
     possible (Yaxiong Tian)

   - Update the description of rate_limit_us default value in cpufreq
     documentation (Yaxiong Tian)

   - Add a command line option to adjust the C-states table in the
     intel_idle driver, remove the 'preferred_cstates' module parameter
     from it, add C-states validation to it and clean it up (Artem
     Bityutskiy)

   - Make the menu cpuidle governor always check the time till the
     closest timer event when the scheduler tick has been stopped to
     prevent it from mistakenly selecting the deepest available idle
     state (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Update the teo cpuidle governor to avoid making suboptimal
     decisions in certain corner cases and generally improve idle state
     selection accuracy (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Remove an unlikely() annotation on the early-return condition in
     menu_select() that leads to branch misprediction 100% of the time
     on systems with only 1 idle state enabled, like ARM64 servers
     (Breno Leitao)

   - Add Christian Loehle to MAINTAINERS as a cpuidle reviewer
     (Christian Loehle)

   - Stop flagging the PM runtime workqueue as freezable to avoid system
     suspend and resume deadlocks in subsystems that assume asynchronous
     runtime PM to work during system-wide PM transitions (Rafael
     Wysocki)

   - Drop redundant NULL pointer checks before acomp_request_free() from
     the hibernation code handling image saving (Rafael Wysocki)

   - Update wakeup_sources_walk_start() to handle empty lists of wakeup
     sources as appropriate (Samuel Wu)

   - Make dev_pm_clear_wake_irq() check the power.wakeirq value under
     power.lock to avoid race conditions (Gui-Dong Han)

   - Avoid bit field races related to power.work_in_progress in the core
     device suspend code (Xuewen Yan)

   - Make several drivers discard pm_runtime_put() return value in
     preparation for converting that function to a void one (Rafael
     Wysocki)

   - Add PL4 support for Ice Lake to the Intel RAPL power capping driver
     (Daniel Tang)

   - Replace sprintf() with sysfs_emit() in power capping sysfs show
     functions (Sumeet Pawnikar)

   - Make dev_pm_opp_get_level() return value match the documentation
     after a previous update of the latter (Aleks Todorov)

   - Use scoped for each OF child loop in the OPP code (Krzysztof
     Kozlowski)

   - Fix a bug in an example code snippet and correct typos in the
     energy model management documentation (Patrick Little)

   - Fix miscellaneous problems in cpupower (Kaushlendra Kumar):
      * idle_monitor: Fix incorrect value logged after stop
      * Fix inverted APERF capability check
      * Use strcspn() to strip trailing newline
      * Reset errno before strtoull()
      * Show C0 in idle-info dump

   - Improve cpupower installation procedure by making the systemd step
     optional and allowing users to disable the installation of
     systemd's unit file (João Marcos Costa)"
