After recent cpuidle updates the "disabled" field in struct
cpuidle_state is only used by two drivers (intel_idle and shmobile
cpuidle) for marking unusable idle states, but that may as well be
achieved with the help of a state flag, so define an "unusable" idle
state flag, CPUIDLE_FLAG_UNUSABLE, make the drivers in question use
it instead of the "disabled" field and make the core set
CPUIDLE_STATE_DISABLED_BY_DRIVER for the idle states with that flag
set.
After the above changes, the "disabled" field in struct cpuidle_state
is not used any more, so drop it.
No intentional functional impact.

In some cases it may be useful to specify an exit latency limit for
the idle state to be used during CPU idle time injection.
Instead of duplicating the information in struct cpuidle_device
or propagating the latency limit in the call stack, replace the
use_deepest_state field with forced_latency_limit_ns to represent
that limit, so that the deepest idle state with exit latency within
that limit is forced (i.e. no governors) when it is set.
A zero exit latency limit for forced idle means to use governors in
the usual way (analogous to use_deepest_state equal to "false" before
this change).
Additionally, add play_idle_precise() taking two arguments, the
duration of forced idle and the idle state exit latency limit, both
in nanoseconds, and redefine play_idle() as a wrapper around that
new function.
This change is preparatory, no functional impact is expected.

Currently, the cpuidle subsystem uses microseconds as the unit of
time which (among other things) causes the idle loop to incur some
integer division overhead for no clear benefit.
In order to allow cpuidle to measure time in nanoseconds, add two
new fields, exit_latency_ns and target_residency_ns, to represent the
exit latency and target residency of an idle state in nanoseconds,
respectively, to struct cpuidle_state and initialize them with the
help of the corresponding values in microseconds provided by drivers.
Additionally, change cpuidle_governor_latency_req() to return the
idle state exit latency constraint in nanoseconds.
Also meeasure idle state residency (last_residency_ns in struct
cpuidle_device and time_ns in struct cpuidle_driver) in nanoseconds
and update the cpuidle core and governors accordingly.
However, the menu governor still computes typical intervals in
microseconds to avoid integer overflows.

There are two reasons why CPU idle states may be disabled: either
because the driver has disabled them or because they have been
disabled by user space via sysfs.
In the former case, the state's "disabled" flag is set once during
the initialization of the driver and it is never cleared later (it
is read-only effectively). In the latter case, the "disable" field
of the given state's cpuidle_state_usage struct is set and it may be
changed via sysfs. Thus checking whether or not an idle state has
been disabled involves reading these two flags every time.
In order to avoid the additional check of the state's "disabled" flag
(which is effectively read-only anyway), use the value of it at the
init time to set a (new) flag in the "disable" field of that state's
cpuidle_state_usage structure and use the sysfs interface to
manipulate another (new) flag in it. This way the state is disabled
whenever the "disable" field of its cpuidle_state_usage structure is
nonzero, whatever the reason, and it is the only place to look into
to check whether or not the state has been disabled.

To be able to predict the sleep duration for a CPU entering idle, it
is essential to know the expiration time of the next timer. Both the
teo and the menu cpuidle governors already use this information for
CPU idle state selection.
Moving forward, a similar prediction needs to be made for a group of
idle CPUs rather than for a single one and the following changes
implement a new genpd governor for that purpose.
In order to support that feature, add a new function called
tick_nohz_get_next_hrtimer() that will return the next hrtimer
expiration time of a given CPU to be invoked after deciding
whether or not to stop the scheduler tick on that CPU.
Make the cpuidle core call tick_nohz_get_next_hrtimer() right
before invoking the ->enter() callback provided by the cpuidle
driver for the given state and store its return value in the
per-CPU struct cpuidle_device, so as to make it available to code
outside of cpuidle.
Note that at the point when cpuidle calls tick_nohz_get_next_hrtimer(),
the governor's ->select() callback has already returned and indicated
whether or not the tick should be stopped, so in fact the value
returned by tick_nohz_get_next_hrtimer() always is the next hrtimer
expiration time for the given CPU, possibly including the tick (if
it hasn't been stopped).

Add a new pointer argument to cpuidle_select() and to the ->select
cpuidle governor callback to allow a boolean value indicating
whether or not the tick should be stopped before entering the
selected state to be returned from there.
Make the ladder governor ignore that pointer (to preserve its
current behavior) and make the menu governor return 'false" through
it if:
(1) the idle exit latency is constrained at 0, or
(2) the selected state is a polling one, or
(3) the expected idle period duration is within the tick period
range.
In addition to that, the correction factor computations in the menu
governor need to take the possibility that the tick may not be
stopped into account to avoid artificially small correction factor
values. To that end, add a mechanism to record tick wakeups, as
suggested by Peter Zijlstra, and use it to modify the menu_update()
behavior when tick wakeup occurs. Namely, if the CPU is woken up by
the tick and the return value of tick_nohz_get_sleep_length() is not
within the tick boundary, the predicted idle duration is likely too
short, so make menu_update() try to compensate for that by updating
the governor statistics as though the CPU was idle for a long time.
Since the value returned through the new argument pointer of
cpuidle_select() is not used by its caller yet, this change by
itself is not expected to alter the functionality of the code.

Snooze is a poll idle state in powernv and pseries platforms. Snooze
has a timeout so that if a CPU stays in snooze for more than target
residency of the next available idle state, then it would exit
thereby giving chance to the cpuidle governor to re-evaluate and
promote the CPU to a deeper idle state. Therefore whenever snooze
exits due to this timeout, its last_residency will be target_residency
of the next deeper state.
Commit e93e59ce5b "cpuidle: Replace ktime_get() with local_clock()"
changed the math around last_residency calculation. Specifically,
while converting last_residency value from nano- to microseconds, it
carries out right shift by 10. Because of that, in snooze timeout
exit scenarios last_residency calculated is roughly 2.3% less than
target_residency of the next available state. This pattern is picked
up by get_typical_interval() in the menu governor and therefore
expected_interval in menu_select() is frequently less than the
target_residency of any state other than snooze.
Due to this we are entering snooze at a higher rate, thereby
affecting the single thread performance.
Fix this by using more precise division via ktime_us_delta().

Commit 0b89e9aa28 (cpuidle: delay enabling interrupts until all
coupled CPUs leave idle) rightfully fixed a regression by letting
the coupled idle state framework to handle local interrupt enabling
when the CPU is exiting an idle state.
The current code checks if the idle state is coupled and, if so, it
will let the coupled code to enable interrupts. This way, it can
decrement the ready-count before handling the interrupt. This
mechanism prevents the other CPUs from waiting for a CPU which is
handling interrupts.
But the check is done against the state index returned by the back
end driver's ->enter functions which could be different from the
initial index passed as parameter to the cpuidle_enter_state()
function.
entered_state = target_state->enter(dev, drv, index);
[ ... ]
if (!cpuidle_state_is_coupled(drv, entered_state))
local_irq_enable();
[ ... ]
If the 'index' is referring to a coupled idle state but the
'entered_state' is *not* coupled, then the interrupts are enabled
again. All CPUs blocked on the sync barrier may busy loop longer
if the CPU has interrupts to handle before decrementing the
ready-count. That's consuming more energy than saving.

The ktime_get() can have a non negligeable overhead, use local_clock()
instead.
In order to test the difference between ktime_get() and local_clock(),
a quick hack has been added to trigger, via debugfs, 10000 times a
call to ktime_get() and local_clock() and measure the elapsed time.
Then the average value, the min and max is computed for each call.
From userspace, the test above was called 100 times every 2 seconds.
So, ktime_get() and local_clock() have been called 1000000 times in
total.
The results are:
ktime_get():
============
* average: 101 ns (stddev: 27.4)
* maximum: 38313 ns
* minimum: 65 ns
local_clock():
==============
* average: 60 ns (stddev: 9.8)
* maximum: 13487 ns
* minimum: 46 ns
The local_clock() is faster and more stable.
Even if it is a drop in the ocean, changing the ktime_get() by the
local_clock() allows to save 80ns at idle time (entry + exit). And
in some circumstances, especially when there are several CPUs racing
for the clock access, we save tens of microseconds.
The idle duration resulting from a diff is converted from nanosec to
microsec. This could be done with integer division (div 1000) - which is
an expensive operation or by 10 bits shifting (div 1024) - which is fast
but unprecise.
The following table gives some results at the limits.
------------------------------------------
| nsec | div(1000) | div(1024) |
------------------------------------------
| 1e3 | 1 usec | 976 nsec |
------------------------------------------
| 1e6 | 1000 usec | 976 usec |
------------------------------------------
| 1e9 | 1000000 usec | 976562 usec |
------------------------------------------
There is a linear deviation of 2.34%. This loss of precision is acceptable
in the context of the resulting diff which is used for statistics. These
ones are processed to guess estimate an approximation of the duration of the
next idle period which ends up into an idle state selection. The selection
criteria takes into account the next duration based on large intervals,
represented by the idle state's target residency.
The 2^10 division is enough because the approximation regarding the 1e3
division is lost in all the approximations done for the next idle duration
computation.

On the cpufreq front, there are many cleanups and minor fixes in the
core and governors, driver updates etc. We also have a new cpufreq
driver for Mediatek MT8173 chips.
ACPICA mostly updates its debug infrastructure and adds a number of
fixes and cleanups for a good measure.
The Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework is updated with new
DT bindings and support for them among other things.
We have a few updates of the generic power domains framework and a
reorganization of the ACPI device enumeration code and bus type
operations.

Pull scheduler updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The biggest change in this cycle is the rewrite of the main SMP load
balancing metric: the CPU load/utilization. The main goal was to make
the metric more precise and more representative - see the changelog of
this commit for the gory details:
9d89c257df ("sched/fair: Rewrite runnable load and utilization average tracking")
It is done in a way that significantly reduces complexity of the code:
5 files changed, 249 insertions(+), 494 deletions(-)
and the performance testing results are encouraging. Nevertheless we
need to keep an eye on potential regressions, since this potentially
affects every SMP workload in existence.

Make sure to stop tracing only once we are past a point where
all latency tracing events have been processed (irqs are not
enabled again). This has the slight advantage of capturing more
latency related events in the idle path, but most importantly it
makes sure that latency tracing doesn't get re-enabled
inadvertently when new events are coming in.
This makes the irqsoff latency tracer useful again, as we stop
capturing CPU sleep time as IRQ latency.

The CPUIDLE_DRIVER_STATE_START symbol is defined as 1 only if
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPU_RELAX is set, otherwise it is defined as 0.
However, if CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPU_RELAX is set, the first (index 0)
entry in the cpuidle driver's table of states is overwritten with
the default "poll" entry by the core. The "state" defined by the
"poll" entry doesn't provide ->enter_dead and ->enter_freeze
callbacks and its exit_latency is 0.
For this reason, it is not necessary to use CPUIDLE_DRIVER_STATE_START
in cpuidle_play_dead() (->enter_dead is NULL, so the "poll state"
will be skipped by the loop).
It also is arguably unuseful to return states with exit_latency
equal to 0 from find_deepest_state(), so the function can be modified
to start the loop from index 0 and the "poll state" will be skipped by
it as a result of the check against latency_req.

Avoid calling the governor's ->reflect method if the state index

This allows the analogous check to be dropped from menu_reflect(),

Commit 335f49196f (sched/idle: Use explicit broadcast oneshot
control function) replaced clockevents_notify() invocations in
cpuidle_idle_call() with direct calls to tick_broadcast_enter()
and tick_broadcast_exit(), but it overlooked the fact that
interrupts were already enabled before calling the latter which
led to functional breakage on systems using idle states with the
CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP flag set.
Fix that by moving the invocations of tick_broadcast_enter()
and tick_broadcast_exit() down into cpuidle_enter_state() where
interrupts are still disabled when tick_broadcast_exit() is
called. Also ensure that interrupts will be disabled before
running tick_broadcast_exit() even if they have been enabled by
the idle state's ->enter callback. Trigger a WARN_ON_ONCE() in
that case, as we generally don't want that to happen for states
with CPUIDLE_FLAG_TIMER_STOP set.

Thomas Schlichter reports the following issue on his Samsung NC20:
"The C-states C1 and C2 to the OS when connected to AC, and additionally
provides the C3 C-state when disconnected from AC. However, the number
of C-states shown in sysfs is fixed to the number of C-states present
at boot.
If I boot with AC connected, I always only see the C-states up to C2
even if I disconnect AC.
The reason is commit 130a5f6924 (ACPI / cpuidle: remove dev->state_count
setting). It removes the update of dev->state_count, but sysfs uses
exactly this variable to show the C-states.
The fix is to use drv->state_count in sysfs. As this is currently the
last user of dev->state_count, this variable can be completely removed."
Remove dev->state_count as per the above.

Commit 3810631332 (PM / sleep: Re-implement suspend-to-idle handling)
overlooked the fact that entering some sufficiently deep idle states
by CPUs may cause their local timers to stop and in those cases it
is necessary to switch over to a broadcast timer prior to entering
the idle state. If the cpuidle driver in use does not provide
the new ->enter_freeze callback for any of the idle states, that
problem affects suspend-to-idle too, but it is not taken into account
after the changes made by commit 3810631332.
Fix that by changing the definition of cpuidle_enter_freeze() and
re-arranging of the code in cpuidle_idle_call(), so the former does
not call cpuidle_enter() any more and the fallback case is handled
by cpuidle_idle_call() directly.

Disabling interrupts at the end of cpuidle_enter_freeze() is not
useful, because its caller, cpuidle_idle_call(), re-enables them
right away after invoking it.
To avoid that unnecessary back and forth dance with interrupts,
make cpuidle_enter_freeze() enable interrupts after calling
enter_freeze_proper() and drop the local_irq_disable() at its
end, so that all of the code paths in it end up with interrupts
enabled. Then, cpuidle_idle_call() will not need to re-enable
interrupts after calling cpuidle_enter_freeze() any more, because
the latter will return with interrupts enabled, in analogy with
cpuidle_enter().

The efficiency of suspend-to-idle depends on being able to keep CPUs
in the deepest available idle states for as much time as possible.
Ideally, they should only be brought out of idle by system wakeup
interrupts.
However, timer interrupts occurring periodically prevent that from
happening and it is not practical to chase all of the "misbehaving"
timers in a whack-a-mole fashion. A much more effective approach is
to suspend the local ticks for all CPUs and the entire timekeeping
along the lines of what is done during full suspend, which also
helps to keep suspend-to-idle and full suspend reasonably similar.
The idea is to suspend the local tick on each CPU executing
cpuidle_enter_freeze() and to make the last of them suspend the
entire timekeeping. That should prevent timer interrupts from
triggering until an IO interrupt wakes up one of the CPUs. It
needs to be done with interrupts disabled on all of the CPUs,
though, because otherwise the suspended clocksource might be
accessed by an interrupt handler which might lead to fatal
consequences.
Unfortunately, the existing ->enter callbacks provided by cpuidle
drivers generally cannot be used for implementing that, because some
of them re-enable interrupts temporarily and some idle entry methods
cause interrupts to be re-enabled automatically on exit. Also some
of these callbacks manipulate local clock event devices of the CPUs
which really shouldn't be done after suspending their ticks.
To overcome that difficulty, introduce a new cpuidle state callback,
->enter_freeze, that will be guaranteed (1) to keep interrupts
disabled all the time (and return with interrupts disabled) and (2)
not to touch the CPU timer devices. Modify cpuidle_enter_freeze() to
look for the deepest available idle state with ->enter_freeze present
and to make the CPU execute that callback with suspended tick (and the
last of the online CPUs to execute it with suspended timekeeping).

In preparation for adding support for quiescing timers in the final
stage of suspend-to-idle transitions, rework the freeze_enter()
function making the system wait on a wakeup event, the freeze_wake()
function terminating the suspend-to-idle loop and the mechanism by
which deep idle states are entered during suspend-to-idle.
First of all, introduce a simple state machine for suspend-to-idle
and make the code in question use it.
Second, prevent freeze_enter() from losing wakeup events due to race
conditions and ensure that the number of online CPUs won't change
while it is being executed. In addition to that, make it force
all of the CPUs re-enter the idle loop in case they are in idle
states already (so they can enter deeper idle states if possible).
Next, drop cpuidle_use_deepest_state() and replace use_deepest_state
checks in cpuidle_select() and cpuidle_reflect() with a single
suspend-to-idle state check in cpuidle_idle_call().
Finally, introduce cpuidle_enter_freeze() that will simply find the
deepest idle state available to the given CPU and enter it using
cpuidle_enter().

When the cpu enters idle, it stores the cpuidle state pointer in its
struct rq instance which in turn could be used to make a better decision
when balancing tasks.
As soon as the cpu exits its idle state, the struct rq reference is
cleared.
There are a couple of situations where the idle state pointer could be changed
while it is being consulted:
1. For x86/acpi with dynamic c-states, when a laptop switches from battery
to AC that could result on removing the deeper idle state. The acpi driver
triggers:
'acpi_processor_cst_has_changed'
'cpuidle_pause_and_lock'
'cpuidle_uninstall_idle_handler'
'kick_all_cpus_sync'.
All cpus will exit their idle state and the pointed object will be set to
NULL.
2. The cpuidle driver is unloaded. Logically that could happen but not
in practice because the drivers are always compiled in and 95% of them are
not coded to unregister themselves. In any case, the unloading code must
call 'cpuidle_unregister_device', that calls 'cpuidle_pause_and_lock'
leading to 'kick_all_cpus_sync' as mentioned above.
A race can happen if we use the pointer and then one of these two scenarios
occurs at the same moment.
In order to be safe, the idle state pointer stored in the rq must be
used inside a rcu_read_lock section where we are protected with the
'rcu_barrier' in the 'cpuidle_uninstall_idle_handler' function. The
idle_get_state() and idle_put_state() accessors should be used to that
effect.

idle_exit event is the first event after a core exits
