Subject: [RFT][PATCH v1 2/8] cpufreq/sched: Move cpufreq-specific EAS checks to cpufreq
Date: Wed, 16 Apr 2025 19:59:12 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <6039220.MhkbZ0Pkbq@rjwysocki.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <3344336.aeNJFYEL58@rjwysocki.net>

From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

Doing cpufreq-specific EAS checks that require accessing policy
internals directly from sched_is_eas_possible() is a bit unfortunate,
so introduce cpufreq_ready_for_eas() in cpufreq, move those checks
into that new function and make sched_is_eas_possible() call it.

While at it, address a possible race between the EAS governor check
and governor change by doing the former under the policy rwsem.

Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
---

v0.3 -> v1
     * Add a new helper called cpufreq_policy_is_good_for_eas() which is
       properly synchronized with governor changes.
     * Slightly modify debug messages.

This patch is regarded as a cleanup for 6.16.
