<content type='text'>
TPMI-specific RAPL primitives differ from those used by MSR and MMIO
interfaces. Keeping them in the common RAPL driver requires
interface-specific handling logic and makes the common layer
unnecessarily complex.

Move the TPMI primitive definitions and associated bitmasks into the
TPMI interface driver. This change includes:

 1. Move TPMI-specific bitmask definitions from intel_rapl_common.c to
    intel_rapl_tpmi.c.
 2. Add TPMI-local struct rapl_primitive_info instance and assign it to
    priv-&gt;rpi during TPMI probe.
 3. Remove the RAPL TPMI related definitions from the common driver.

No functional changes are intended.

TPMI-specific RAPL defaults differ from those used by MSR and MMIO
interfaces. Keeping them in RAPL common driver introduces unnecessary
complexity.

Move the TPMI defaults into the TPMI interface driver. This change
includes the following updates:

1. Add a TPMI-local struct rapl_defaults instance and assign it to
priv-&gt;defaults during TPMI probe.
2. Move rapl_check_unit_tpmi() and related unit-field definitions from
the common driver into the TPMI driver.
3. In rapl_check_unit_tpmi(), replace the generic get_rid() usage with
direct access to the TPMI package ID, since the function is now
interface-specific.

No functional changes are intended.

<title>powercap: intel_rapl: Add a symbol namespace for intel_rapl exports</title>

<content type='text'>
Cleanup of the intel_rapl common driver requires introducing additional
exported helper and lifecycle functions. Before adding new exports,
create a dedicated symbol namespace for intel_rapl and update the
relevant interface drivers to explicitly import it.

This makes the intended usage of these symbols explicit, avoids
polluting the global namespace, and prepares the codebase for the
ongoing RAPL refactoring.

No functional changes are intended.

<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

<title>powercap: intel_rapl_tpmi: Remove FW_BUG from invalid version check</title>

<content type='text'>
On partitioned systems, multiple TPMI instances may exist per package,
but RAPL registers are only valid on one instance since RAPL has
package-scope control. Other instances return invalid versions during
domain parsing, which is expected behavior on such systems.

Currently this generates a firmware bug warning:

  intel_rapl_tpmi: [Firmware Bug]: Invalid version

Remove the FW_BUG tag, downgrade to pr_debug(), and update the message
to clarify that invalid versions are expected on partitioned systems
where only one instance can be valid.

<title>powercap: intel_rapl: Prepare read_raw() interface for atomic-context callers</title>

<id>urn:sha1:1d6c915819f5b805c35487b6ce5923e31a28266b</id>
<content type='text'>
The current read_raw() implementation of the TPMI, MMIO and MSR
interfaces does not distinguish between atomic and non-atomic callers.

rapl_msr_read_raw() uses rdmsrq_safe_on_cpu(), which can sleep and
issue cross CPU calls. When MSR-based RAPL PMU support is enabled, PMU
event handlers can invoke this function from atomic context where
sleeping or rescheduling is not allowed. In atomic context, the caller
is already executing on the target CPU, so a direct rdmsrq() is
sufficient.

To support such usage, introduce an atomic flag to the read_raw()
interface to allow callers pass the context information. Modify the
common RAPL code to propagate this flag, and set the flag to reflect
the calling contexts.

Utilize the atomic flag in rapl_msr_read_raw() to perform direct MSR
read with rdmsrq() when running in atomic context, and a sanity check
to ensure target CPU matches the current CPU for such use cases.

The TPMI and MMIO implementations do not require special atomic
handling, so the flag is ignored in those paths.

This is a preparatory patch for adding MSR-based RAPL PMU support.

<content type='text'>
The TPMI platform information provides a mapping of OOBMSM PCI devices to
logical CPUs. Since this mapping is consistent across all OOBMSM features
(e.g., TPMI, PMT, SDSi), it can be leveraged by multiple drivers. To
facilitate reuse, relocate the struct intel_tpmi_plat_info to intel_vsec.h,
renaming it to struct oobmsm_plat_info, making it accessible to other
features. While modifying headers, place them in alphabetical order.

<id>urn:sha1:1d390923974cc233245649cf23833e06b15a9ef7</id>
<content type='text'>
The hardware definition of every TPMI feature contains a major and minor
version. When there is a change in the MMIO offset or change in the
definition of a field, hardware will change major version. For addition
of new fields without modifying existing MMIO offsets or fields, only
the minor version is changed.

If the driver has not been updated to recognize a new hardware major
version, it cannot provide the RAPL interface to users due to possible
register layout incompatibilities. However, the driver does not need to
be updated every time the hardware minor version changes because in that
case it will just miss some new functionality exposed by the hardware.

The current implementation causes the driver to refuse to work for any
hardware version change which is unnecessarily restrictive.

If there is a minor version mismatch, log an information message and
continue, but if there is a major version mismatch, log a warning and
exit (as before).
