cpufreq: Remove CPUFREQ_STICKY flag

2021-02-04T18:23:20+00:00

During cpufreq driver's registration, if the ->init() callback for all the CPUs fail then there is not much point in keeping the driver around as it will only account for more of unnecessary noise, for example cpufreq core will try to suspend/resume the driver which never got registered properly. The removal of such a driver is avoided if the driver carries the CPUFREQ_STICKY flag. This was added way back [1] in 2004 and perhaps no one should ever need it now. A lot of drivers do set this flag, probably because they just copied it from other drivers. This was added earlier for some platforms [2] because their cpufreq drivers were getting registered before the CPUs were registered with subsys framework. And hence they used to fail. The same isn't true anymore though. The current code flow in the kernel is: start_kernel() -> kernel_init() -> kernel_init_freeable() -> do_basic_setup() -> driver_init() -> cpu_dev_init() -> subsys_system_register() //For CPUs -> do_initcalls() -> cpufreq_register_driver() Clearly, the CPUs will always get registered with subsys framework before any cpufreq driver can get probed. Remove the flag and update the relevant drivers.

OPP: refactor dev_pm_opp_of_register_em() and update related drivers

2020-06-24T15:16:42+00:00

The Energy Model framework supports not only CPU devices. Drop the CPU specific interface with cpumask and add struct device. Add also a return value, user might use it. This new interface provides easy way to create a simple Energy Model, which then might be used by e.g. thermal subsystem. Acked-by: Daniel Lezcano Signed-off-by: Lukasz Luba Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

cpufreq: Make cpufreq_generic_init() return void

2019-07-16T08:20:11+00:00

It always returns 0 (success) and its return type should really be void. Over that, many drivers have added error handling code based on its return value, which is not required at all. Change its return type to void and update all the callers. Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

PM / OPP: Update OPP users to put reference

2017-01-30T08:22:21+00:00

This patch updates dev_pm_opp_find_freq_*() routines to get a reference to the OPPs returned by them. Also updates the users of dev_pm_opp_find_freq_*() routines to call dev_pm_opp_put() after they are done using the OPPs. As it is guaranteed the that OPPs wouldn't get freed while being used, the RCU read side locking present with the users isn't required anymore. Drop it as well. This patch also updates all users of devfreq_recommended_opp() which was returning an OPP received from the OPP core. Note that some of the OPP core routines have gained rcu_read_{lock|unlock}() calls, as those still use RCU specific APIs within them.

remove lots of IS_ERR_VALUE abuses

2016-05-27T22:26:11+00:00

Most users of IS_ERR_VALUE() in the kernel are wrong, as they pass an 'int' into a function that takes an 'unsigned long' argument. This happens to work because the type is sign-extended on 64-bit architectures before it gets converted into an unsigned type. However, anything that passes an 'unsigned short' or 'unsigned int' argument into IS_ERR_VALUE() is guaranteed to be broken, as are 8-bit integers and types that are wider than 'unsigned long'. Andrzej Hajda has already fixed a lot of the worst abusers that were causing actual bugs, but it would be nice to prevent any users that are not passing 'unsigned long' arguments. This patch changes all users of IS_ERR_VALUE() that I could find on 32-bit ARM randconfig builds and x86 allmodconfig. For the moment, this doesn't change the definition of IS_ERR_VALUE() because there are probably still architecture specific users elsewhere. Almost all the warnings I got are for files that are better off using 'if (err)' or 'if (err < 0)'. The only legitimate user I could find that we get a warning for is the (32-bit only) freescale fman driver, so I did not remove the IS_ERR_VALUE() there but changed the type to 'unsigned long'. For 9pfs, I just worked around one user whose calling conventions are so obscure that I did not dare change the behavior. I was using this definition for testing: #define IS_ERR_VALUE(x) ((unsigned long*)NULL == (typeof (x)*)NULL && \ unlikely((unsigned long long)(x) >= (unsigned long long)(typeof(x))-MAX_ERRNO)) which ends up making all 16-bit or wider types work correctly with the most plausible interpretation of what IS_ERR_VALUE() was supposed to return according to its users, but also causes a compile-time warning for any users that do not pass an 'unsigned long' argument. I suggested this approach earlier this year, but back then we ended up deciding to just fix the users that are obviously broken. After the initial warning that caused me to get involved in the discussion (fs/gfs2/dir.c) showed up again in the mainline kernel, Linus asked me to send the whole thing again.
