[PATCH v4 0/2] Add stop callback to the cpufreq_driver interface.

[PATCH v4 0/2] Add stop callback to the cpufreq_driver interface.

[dirk.brandewie]

From: Dirk Brandewie <dirk.j.brandewie@intel.com>

Changes: 
v3->v4
Change to only call ->stop() callback for drivers exposing the
->set_policy() callback.

v2->v3
Changed the calling of the ->stop() callback to be conditional on the
core being the last core controlled by a given policy.

v1->2
Change name of callback function added to cpufreq_driver interface.

Some drivers (intel_pstate) need to modify state on a core before it
is completely offline.  The ->exit() callback is executed during the
CPU_POST_DEAD phase of the cpu offline process which is too late to
change the state of the core.

Patch 1 adds an optional callback function to the cpufreq_driver
interface which is called by the core during the CPU_DOWN_PREPARE
phase of cpu offline in __cpufreq_remove_dev_prepare().

Patch 2 changes intel_pstate to use the ->stop callback to do
its cleanup during cpu offline.

[PATCH 1/2] cpufreq: Add stop callback to cpufreq_driver interface

[dirk.brandewie]

From: Dirk Brandewie <dirk.j.brandewie@intel.com>

This callback allows the driver to do clean up before the CPU is
completely down and its state cannot be modified.  This is used
by the intel_pstate driver to reduce the requested P state prior to
the core going away.  This is required because the requested P state
of the offline core is used to select the package P state. This
effectively sets the floor package P state to the requested P state on
the offline core.

Nit: Why is it an int function if the only caller doesn't check the
return value?  It should be void.

To speed up things a bit I changed the name of the new callback to ->stop_cpu
and made it void.

I also modified patch [2/2] accordingly and queued the both of them up for 3.15.

Please check the bleeding-edge branch.

I wouldn't like to need to do anything like that any more in the future, though.

[PATCH 2/2] intel_pstate: Set core to min P state during core offline

[dirk.brandewie]

From: Dirk Brandewie <dirk.j.brandewie@intel.com>

Change to use ->exit_prepare() callback to do clean up during CPU
hotplug. The requested P state for an offline core will be used by the
hardware coordination function to select the package P state. If the
core is under load when it is offlined it will fix the package P state
floor to the requested P state of offline core.

exit_prepare() ?? Probably rename it to cpu_stop as well, as Rafael
suggested in another thread.

[PATCH v2 0/2] Add exit_prepare callback to the cpufreq_driver interface.

[dirk.brandewie]

From: Dirk Brandewie <dirk.j.brandewie@intel.com>

Some drivers (intel_pstate) need to modify state on a core before it
is completely offline.  The ->exit() callback is executed during the
CPU_POST_DEAD phase of the cpu offline process which is too late to
change the state of the core.

Patch 1 adds an optional callback function to the cpufreq_driver
interface which is called by the core during the CPU_DOWN_PREPARE
phase of cpu offline in __cpufreq_remove_dev_prepare().

Patch 2 changes intel_pstate to use the ->stop callback to do
its cleanup during cpu offline.

is completely offline.  The ->exit() callback is executed during the
CPU_POST_DEAD phase of the cpu offline process which is too late to
change the state of the core.

Patch 1 adds an optional callback function to the cpufreq_driver
interface which is called by the core during the CPU_DOWN_PREPARE
phase of cpu offline in __cpufreq_remove_dev_prepare().

Patch 2 changes intel_pstate to use the ->stop callback to do
its cleanup during cpu offline. 

Dirk Brandewie (2):
  cpufreq: Add exit_prepare callback to cpufreq_driver interface
  intel_pstate: Set core to min P state during core offline

[PATCH 1/2] cpufreq: Add stop callback to cpufreq_driver interface

[dirk.brandewie]

From: Dirk Brandewie <dirk.j.brandewie@intel.com>

This callback allows the driver to do clean up before the CPU is
completely down and its state cannot be modified.  This is used
by the intel_pstate driver to reduce the requested P state prior to
the core going away.  This is required because the requested P state
of the offline core is used to select the package P state. This
effectively sets the floor package P state to the requested P state on
the offline core.
