Introduce a virtualized cpufreq driver for guest kernels to improve
performance and power of workloads within VMs.
This driver does two main things:
1. Sends the frequency of vCPUs as a hint to the host. The host uses the
hint to schedule the vCPU threads and decide physical CPU frequency.
2. If a VM does not support a virtualized FIE(like AMUs), it queries the
host CPU frequency by reading a MMIO region of a virtual cpufreq device
to update the guest's frequency scaling factor periodically. This enables
accurate Per-Entity Load Tracking for tasks running in the guest.

Some of LoongArch processors (Loongson-3 series) support DVFS, their
IOCSR.FEATURES has IOCSRF_FREQSCALE set. And they has a micro-core in
the package called SMC (System Management Controller), which can be
used to detect temperature, control fans, scale frequency and voltage,
etc.
The Loongson-3 CPUFreq driver is very simple now, it communicate with
SMC, get DVFS info, set target frequency from CPUFreq core, and so on.
There is a command list to interact with SMC, widely-used commands in
the CPUFreq driver include:
CMD_GET_VERSION: Get SMC firmware version.
CMD_GET_FEATURE: Get enabled SMC features.
CMD_SET_FEATURE: Enable SMC features, such as basic DVFS, BOOST.
CMD_GET_FREQ_LEVEL_NUM: Get the number of all frequency levels.
CMD_GET_FREQ_BOOST_LEVEL: Get the first boost frequency level.
CMD_GET_FREQ_LEVEL_INFO: Get the detail info of a frequency level.
CMD_GET_FREQ_INFO: Get the current frequency.
CMD_SET_FREQ_INFO: Set the target frequency.
In future we will add automatic frequency scaling, which is similar to
Intel's HWP (HardWare P-State).

The Itanium architecture is obsolete, and an informal survey [0] reveals
that any residual use of Itanium hardware in production is mostly HP-UX
or OpenVMS based. The use of Linux on Itanium appears to be limited to
enthusiasts that occasionally boot a fresh Linux kernel to see whether
things are still working as intended, and perhaps to churn out some
distro packages that are rarely used in practice.
None of the original companies behind Itanium still produce or support
any hardware or software for the architecture, and it is listed as
'Orphaned' in the MAINTAINERS file, as apparently, none of the engineers
that contributed on behalf of those companies (nor anyone else, for that
matter) have been willing to support or maintain the architecture
upstream or even be responsible for applying the odd fix. The Intel
firmware team removed all IA-64 support from the Tianocore/EDK2
reference implementation of EFI in 2018. (Itanium is the original
architecture for which EFI was developed, and the way Linux supports it
deviates significantly from other architectures.) Some distros, such as
Debian and Gentoo, still maintain [unofficial] ia64 ports, but many have
dropped support years ago.
While the argument is being made [1] that there is a 'for the common
good' angle to being able to build and run existing projects such as the
Grid Community Toolkit [2] on Itanium for interoperability testing, the
fact remains that none of those projects are known to be deployed on
Linux/ia64, and very few people actually have access to such a system in
the first place. Even if there were ways imaginable in which Linux/ia64
could be put to good use today, what matters is whether anyone is
actually doing that, and this does not appear to be the case.
There are no emulators widely available, and so boot testing Itanium is
generally infeasible for ordinary contributors. GCC still supports IA-64
but its compile farm [3] no longer has any IA-64 machines. GLIBC would
like to get rid of IA-64 [4] too because it would permit some overdue
code cleanups. In summary, the benefits to the ecosystem of having IA-64
be part of it are mostly theoretical, whereas the maintenance overhead
of keeping it supported is real.
So let's rip off the band aid, and remove the IA-64 arch code entirely.
This follows the timeline proposed by the Debian/ia64 maintainer [5],
which removes support in a controlled manner, leaving IA-64 in a known
good state in the most recent LTS release. Other projects will follow
once the kernel support is removed.

Commit 33aa46f252 ("cpufreq: intel_pstate: Use passive mode by
default without HWP") was meant to cause intel_pstate to be used
in the passive mode with the schedutil governor on top of it, but
it missed the case in which either "ondemand" or "conservative"
was selected as the default governor in the existing kernel config,
in which case the previous old governor configuration would be used,
causing the default legacy governor to be used on top of intel_pstate
instead of schedutil.
Address this by preventing "ondemand" and "conservative" from being
configured as the default cpufreq governor in the case when schedutil
is the default choice for the default governor setting.
[Note that the default cpufreq governor can still be set via the
kernel command line if need be and that choice is not limited,
so if anyone really wants to use one of the legacy governors by
default, it can be achieved this way.]

schedutil is already a hard-requirement for EAS, which has lead to making
it default on arm (when CONFIG_BIG_LITTLE), see:
commit 8fdcca8e25 ("cpufreq: Select schedutil when using big.LITTLE")
One thing worth pointing out is that schedutil isn't only relevant for
asymmetric CPU capacity systems; for instance, schedutil is the only
governor that honours util-clamp performance requests. Another good example
of this is x86 switching to using it by default in:
commit a00ec3874e ("cpufreq: intel_pstate: Select schedutil as the default governor")
Arguably it should be made the default for all architectures, but it seems
better to wait for them to also gain frequency invariance powers. Make it
the default for arm && arm64 for now.

When we are using a system with big.LITTLE HMP
configuration, we need to use EAS to schedule the
system.
As can be seen from kernel/sched/topology.c:
"EAS can be used on a root domain if it meets all the following conditions:
1. an Energy Model (EM) is available;
2. the SD_ASYM_CPUCAPACITY flag is set in the sched_domain hierarchy.
3. no SMT is detected.
4. the EM complexity is low enough to keep scheduling overheads low;
5. schedutil is driving the frequency of all CPUs of the rd;"
This means that at the very least, schedutil needs to be
available as a scheduling policy for EAS to work on these
systems. Make this explicit by defaulting to the schedutil
governor if BIG_LITTLE is selected.
Currently users of the TC2 board (like me) has to figure these
dependencies out themselves and it is not helpful.

The CPU cooling driver (cpu_cooling.c) allows the platform's cpufreq
driver to register as a cooling device and cool down the platform by
throttling the CPU frequency. In order to be able to auto-register a
cpufreq driver as a cooling device from the cpufreq core, we need access
to code inside cpu_cooling.c which, in turn, accesses code inside
thermal core.
CPU_FREQ is a bool while THERMAL is tristate. In some configurations
(e.g. allmodconfig), CONFIG_THERMAL ends up as a module while
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ is compiled in. This leads to following error:
drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.o: In function `cpufreq_offline':
cpufreq.c:(.text+0x407c): undefined reference to `cpufreq_cooling_unregister'
drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq.o: In function `cpufreq_online':
cpufreq.c:(.text+0x70c0): undefined reference to `of_cpufreq_cooling_register'
Given that platforms using CPU_THERMAL usually want it compiled-in so it
is available early in boot, make CPU_THERMAL depend on THERMAL being
compiled-in instead of allowing it to be a module.
As a result of this change, get rid of the ugly (!CPU_THERMAL ||
THERMAL) dependency in all cpufreq drivers using CPU_THERMAL.

The MIPS loongson cpufreq drivers don't build unless configured for the

More specifically loongson1-cpufreq.c uses RST_CPU_EN and RST_CPU,
neither of which is defined in asm/mach-loongson32/regs-clk.h unless
CONFIG_LOONGSON1_LS1B=y, and loongson2_cpufreq.c references

This doesn't have any benefit apart from saving a small amount of memory
when it is disabled. The ifdef hackery in the code makes it dirty
unnecessarily.
Clean it up by removing the Kconfig option completely. Few defconfigs
are also updated and CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_STAT_DETAILS is replaced with
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_STAT now in them, as users wanted stats to be enabled.

It is useful to know the reason why cpufreq_update_util() has just
been called and that can be passed as flags to cpufreq_update_util()
and to the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data. However,
doing that in addition to passing the util and max arguments they
already take would be clumsy, so avoid it.
Instead, use the observation that the schedutil governor is part
of the scheduler proper, so it can access scheduler data directly.
This allows the util and max arguments of cpufreq_update_util()
and the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data to be replaced
with a flags one, but schedutil has to be modified to follow.
Thus make the schedutil governor obtain the CFS utilization
information from the scheduler and use the "RT" and "DL" flags
instead of the special utilization value of ULONG_MAX to track
updates from the RT and DL sched classes. Make it non-modular
too to avoid having to export scheduler variables to modules at
large.
Next, update all of the other users of cpufreq_update_util()
and the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data accordingly.

The modularity of cpufreq_stats is quite problematic.
First off, the usage of policy notifiers for the initialization
and cleanup in the cpufreq_stats module is inherently racy with
respect to CPU offline/online and the initialization and cleanup
of the cpufreq driver.
Second, fast frequency switching (used by the schedutil governor)
cannot be enabled if any transition notifiers are registered, so
if the cpufreq_stats module (that registers a transition notifier
for updating transition statistics) is loaded, the schedutil governor
cannot use fast frequency switching.
On the other hand, allowing cpufreq_stats to be built as a module
doesn't really add much value. Arguably, there's not much reason
for that code to be modular at all.
For the above reasons, make the cpufreq stats code non-modular,
modify the core to invoke functions provided by that code directly
and drop the notifiers from it.
Make the stats sysfs attributes appear empty if fast frequency
switching is enabled as the statistics will not be updated in that
case anyway (and returning -EBUSY from those attributes breaks
powertop).
While at it, clean up Kconfig help for the CPU_FREQ_STAT and
CPU_FREQ_STAT_DETAILS options.

Multiple platforms are using the generic cpufreq-dt driver now, and all
of them are required to create a platform device with name "cpufreq-dt",
in order to get the cpufreq-dt probed.
Many of them do it from platform code, others have special drivers just
to do that.
It would be more sensible to do this at a generic place, where all such
platform can mark their entries.
This patch adds a separate file to get this device created. Currently
the compat list of platforms that we support is empty, and will be
filled in as and when we move platforms to use it.
It always compiles as part of the kernel and so doesn't need a
module-exit operation.

Add a new cpufreq scaling governor, called "schedutil", that uses
scheduler-provided CPU utilization information as input for making
its decisions.
Doing that is possible after commit 34e2c555f3 (cpufreq: Add
mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks) that
introduced cpufreq_update_util() called by the scheduler on
utilization changes (from CFS) and RT/DL task status updates.
In particular, CPU frequency scaling decisions may be based on
the the utilization data passed to cpufreq_update_util() by CFS.
The new governor is relatively simple.
The frequency selection formula used by it depends on whether or not
the utilization is frequency-invariant. In the frequency-invariant
case the new CPU frequency is given by
next_freq = 1.25 * max_freq * util / max
where util and max are the last two arguments of cpufreq_update_util().
In turn, if util is not frequency-invariant, the maximum frequency in
the above formula is replaced with the current frequency of the CPU:
next_freq = 1.25 * curr_freq * util / max
The coefficient 1.25 corresponds to the frequency tipping point at
(util / max) = 0.8.
All of the computations are carried out in the utilization update
handlers provided by the new governor. One of those handlers is
used for cpufreq policies shared between multiple CPUs and the other
one is for policies with one CPU only (and therefore it doesn't need
to use any extra synchronization means).
The governor supports fast frequency switching if that is supported
by the cpufreq driver in use and possible for the given policy.
In the fast switching case, all operations of the governor take
place in its utilization update handlers. If fast switching cannot
be used, the frequency switch operations are carried out with the
help of a work item which only calls __cpufreq_driver_target()
(under a mutex) to trigger a frequency update (to a value already
computed beforehand in one of the utilization update handlers).
Currently, the governor treats all of the RT and DL tasks as
"unknown utilization" and sets the frequency to the allowed
maximum when updated from the RT or DL sched classes. That
heavy-handed approach should be replaced with something more
subtle and specifically targeted at RT and DL tasks.
The governor shares some tunables management code with the
"ondemand" and "conservative" governors and uses some common
definitions from cpufreq_governor.h, but apart from that it
is stand-alone.

Instead of using a per-CPU deferrable timer for queuing up governor
work items, register a utilization update callback that will be
invoked from the scheduler on utilization changes.
The sampling rate is still the same as what was used for the
deferrable timers and the added irq_work overhead should be offset by
the eliminated timers overhead, so in theory the functional impact of
this patch should not be significant.

efforts not compiling SRCU unless necessary is desirable.
The current patch tries to make compiling SRCU optional by introducing a new
Kconfig option CONFIG_SRCU which is selected when any of the components making
use of SRCU are selected.
If we do not select CONFIG_SRCU, srcu.o will not be compiled at all.

[ paulmck: resolve conflict due to removal of arch/ia64/kvm/Kconfig. ]
CPUFreq driver's Kconfig entries are added in Kconfig.<arch> files and they are
all included from the main Kconfig file using a menu entry. This creates another
level of (unnecessary) hierarchy within the menuconfig entries.
The problem occurs when there are drivers usable across architectures. Either
their config entry is duplicated in all the supported architectures or is put
into the main Kconfig entry. With the later one, we have menuconfig entries for
drivers at two levels then.
Fix these issues by getting rid of another level of menuconfig hierarchy and
populate all drivers within the main cpufreq menu. To clearly distinguish where
the drivers start from, also add a comment that will appear in menuconfig.

The intel_pstate driver only supports the performance and the powersave
governors. With the performance governor ensuring the highest possible
performance settings, userspace tools fail to make any lasting changes.
In order to allow userspace tools to make modifications to the settings,
the powersave governor must be in use. This makes having the powersave
governor as the default convenient for systems where the intel_pstate
driver is being employed. Having to enable expert mode in the kernel
configuration is just a headache for such a trivial task.
This patch applies to all kernel versions 2.6.38 or greater after the
migration from CONFIG_EMBEDDED to CONFIG_EXPERT (6a108a14fa). Most
importantly, this applies to kernel versions 3.9 or greater when the
intel_pstate driver was introduced.

Also, in future it will be modified to support any number of clusters with

Lets rename it to 'cpufreq_dt' from 'cpufreq_cpu0'.
