<id>urn:sha1:6dbf5cea05a7098a69f294c96b6d76f08562cae5</id>
<content type='text'>
After commit 9908859acaa9 (cpuidle/menu: add per CPU PM QoS resume
latency consideration) the cpuidle menu governor calls
dev_pm_qos_read_value() on CPU devices to read the current resume
latency QoS constraint values for them.  That function takes a spinlock
to prevent the device's power.qos pointer from becoming NULL during
the access which is a problem for the RT patchset where spinlocks are
converted into mutexes and the idle loop stops working.

However, it is not even necessary for the menu governor to take
that spinlock, because the power.qos pointer accessed under it
cannot be modified during the access anyway.

For this reason, introduce a "raw" routine for accessing device
QoS resume latency constraints without locking and use it in the
menu governor.

Fixes: 9908859acaa9 (cpuidle/menu: add per CPU PM QoS resume latency consideration)

<title>PM / QoS: Make it possible to expose device latency tolerance to userspace</title>

<content type='text'>
Typically when a device is created the bus core it belongs to (for example
PCI) does not know if the device supports things like latency tolerance.
This is left to the driver that binds to the device in question. However,
at that time the device has already been created and there is no way to set
its dev-&gt;power.set_latency_tolerance anymore.

So follow what has been done for other PM QoS attributes as well and allow
drivers to expose and hide latency tolerance from userspace, if the device
supports it.

<title>PM: Drop CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME from the driver core</title>

<content type='text'>
After commit b2b49ccbdd54 (PM: Kconfig: Set PM_RUNTIME if PM_SLEEP is
selected) PM_RUNTIME is always set if PM is set, so quite a few
depend on CONFIG_PM or even may be dropped entirely in some cases.

Replace CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME with CONFIG_PM in the PM core code.

Also adds a class type PM_QOS_SUM that aggregates the values by summing them.

It can be used by memory controllers to calculate the optimum clock frequency
based on the bandwidth needs of the different memory clients.

<title>PM / QoS: Add type to dev_pm_qos_add_ancestor_request() arguments</title>

Rework dev_pm_qos_add_ancestor_request() so that device PM QoS type
is passed to it as the third argument and make it support the
DEV_PM_QOS_LATENCY_TOLERANCE device PM QoS type (in addition to
DEV_PM_QOS_RESUME_LATENCY).

That will allow the drivers of devices without latency tolerance
hardware support to use their ancestors having it as proxies for
their latency tolerance requirements.

<title>PM / QoS: Introcuce latency tolerance device PM QoS type</title>

<id>urn:sha1:2d984ad132a87ca2112f81f21039493176a8bca0</id>
<content type='text'>
Add a new latency tolerance device PM QoS type to be use for
specifying active state (RPM_ACTIVE) memory access (DMA) latency
tolerance requirements for devices.  It may be used to prevent
hardware from choosing overly aggressive energy-saving operation
modes (causing too much latency to appear) for the whole platform.

This feature reqiures hardware support, so it only will be
available for devices having a new .set_latency_tolerance()
callback in struct dev_pm_info populated, in which case the
routine pointed to by it should implement whatever is necessary
to transfer the effective requirement value to the hardware.

Whenever the effective latency tolerance changes for the device,
its .set_latency_tolerance() callback will be executed and the
effective value will be passed to it.  If that value is negative,
which means that the list of latency tolerance requirements for
the device is empty, the callback is expected to switch the
underlying hardware latency tolerance control mechanism to an
autonomous mode if available.  If that value is PM_QOS_LATENCY_ANY,
in turn, and the hardware supports a special "no requirement"
setting, the callback is expected to use it.  That allows software
to prevent the hardware from automatically updating the device's
latency tolerance in response to its power state changes (e.g. during
transitions from D3cold to D0), which generally may be done in the
autonomous latency tolerance control mode.

If .set_latency_tolerance() is present for the device, a new
pm_qos_latency_tolerance_us attribute will be present in the
devivce's power directory in sysfs.  Then, user space can use
that attribute to specify its latency tolerance requirement for
the device, if any.  Writing "any" to it means "no requirement, but
do not let the hardware control latency tolerance" and writing
"auto" to it allows the hardware to be switched to the autonomous
mode if there are no other requirements from the kernel side in the
device's list.

This changeset includes a fix from Mika Westerberg.

Add a new field, no_constraints_value, to struct pm_qos_constraints
representing a list of PM QoS constraint requests to be returned by
pm_qos_get_value() when that list of requests is empty.

That field will be equal to default_value for all of the existing
global PM QoS classes and for the resume latency device PM QoS type,
but it will be different from default_value for the new latency
tolerance device PM QoS type introduced by the next changeset.
