5 dayscpufreq/amd-pstate: handle missing policy in dynamic EPP callbacksEDAMAMEX
cpufreq_cpu_get() returns NULL when no cpufreq policy is associated with the requested CPU, for example because the CPU is offline or the policy has already been torn down. Both amd_pstate_power_supply_notifier() and amd_pstate_profile_set() acquire a policy via cpufreq_cpu_get() and then pass that pointer to amd_pstate_get_balanced_epp() and amd_pstate_set_epp(), which dereference it unconditionally. A racing CPU hotplug or driver teardown can therefore lead to a NULL pointer dereference on either of these dynamic EPP paths. The third cpufreq_cpu_get() caller in this file, amd_pstate_verify(), already handles the NULL case. Bring the two new callers in line with that pattern: return NOTIFY_OK from the power-supply notifier (matching the other "nothing to do" exits) and -ENODEV from amd_pstate_profile_set() (the usual cpufreq error for a missing CPU policy). Found by code inspection; not tested on hardware.

5 dayscpufreq/amd-pstate: Cache the firmware programmed EPP valueMarco Scardovi
At CPU EPP initialization, the private cpudata structure is allocated via kzalloc, which means cpudata->cppc_req_cached is initialized to 0. This makes the default cached EPP value 0 (AMD_CPPC_EPP_PERFORMANCE). When initializing a system that defaults to performance EPP, the driver attempts to configure the EPP via amd_pstate_set_epp(). Because the requested EPP (0) matches the uninitialized cached value (0), the cache guard check triggers, and the driver skips writing to the hardware. Cache the firmware-programmed default EPP value in cppc_req_cached during CPU EPP initialization. This saves on an unnecessary reprogramming later when the EPP is first set.

5 dayscpufreq/amd-pstate: Toggle auto_sel in active mode on shared memory systemsMarco Scardovi
On shared memory systems, the EPP configuration path (handled via cppc_set_epp_perf()) is responsible for toggling on the CPPC autonomous selection register (auto_sel). Currently, shmem_init_perf() returns early without doing any of the auto_sel configuration steps if cppc_state is AMD_PSTATE_ACTIVE. This skips enabling auto_sel, leaving the CPU in non-autonomous mode. Remove the early return check in shmem_init_perf() when cppc_state is AMD_PSTATE_ACTIVE. Toggling auto_sel is necessary for the active mode on shared memory systems to function based on the ACPI spec for CPPC v2 and below.

5 dayscpufreq/amd-pstate: Fix EPP return type and handle errors during initializationMarco Scardovi
Currently, the EPP getter helper functions (msr_get_epp, shmem_get_epp, and the static call wrapper amd_pstate_get_epp) return u8 or s16. This makes it difficult to correctly propagate negative error values returned by the underlying MSR read or CPPC helpers (such as rdmsrq_on_cpu or cppc_get_epp_perf). Modify the return type of these functions to int, allowing them to return negative error codes properly. Additionally, in amd_pstate_epp_cpu_init(), fetch the firmware-programmed default EPP value and validate it before assigning it to the EPP variables. If amd_pstate_get_epp() returns an error code, propagate the error and abort the CPU initialization to prevent subsequent configuration failures.

This requirement was introduced by commit 8f8b42c1fcc93 ("cpufreq: amd-pstate: optimize the initial frequency values verification") specifically to aid in debugging BIOS issues with invalid _CPC tables on some older systems. This requirement is too tight for new systems though as some systems actually have lowest nonlinear frequency identical to minimum frequency. Allow that combo to work.

12 dayscpufreq: intel_pstate: Adjust the .adjust_perf() driver callbackRafael J. Wysocki
In some cases, the processor may not actually stick to the "desired" performance level programmed through the driver's .adjust_perf() callback and may go above it, which may not be desirable (for instance, there may be a UCLAMP_MAX limit set for the task currently running on the given CPU which should be respected). Address that by adjusting the .adjust_perf() callback to take an additional argument, max_perf, representing the maximum allowed performance level of the CPU and update the intel_pstate driver to take that argument into account as appropriate. Accordingly, adjust cpufreq_driver_adjust_perf() and the other existing user of .adjust_perf(), which is the amd-pstate driver (but the behavior of that driver is not changed). While at it, also update the cpufreq_driver_adjust_perf() documentation to reflect this change and some previous code changes that have not been taken into account in it. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace Pull tracing updates from Steven Rostedt: - Remove a redundant IS_ERR() check trace_pipe_open() already checks for IS_ERR() and does it again in the return path. Remove the return check. - Export seq_buf_putmem_hex() to allow kunit tests against them To add Kunit tests on seq_buf_putmem_hex(), it needs to be exported. - Replace strcat() and strcpy() with seq_buf() logic The code for synthetic events uses a series of strcat() and strcpy() which can be error prone. Replace them with seq_buf() logic that does all the necessary bound checking. - Add a lockdep rcu_is_watching() to trace_##event##_enabled() call The trace_##event##_enabled() is a static branch that is true if the "event" is enabled. But this can hide bugs if this logic is in a location where RCU is disabled and not "watching". It would only trigger if lockdep is enabled and the event is enabled. Add a "rcu_is_watching()" warning if lockdep is enabled in that helper function to trigger regardless if the event is enabled or not. - Remove the local variable in the trace_printk() macro For name space integrity, remove the _______STR variable in the trace_printk() macro for using the sizeof() macro directly. - Use guard()s for the trace_recursion_record.c file - Fix typo in a comment of eventfs_callback() kerneldoc - Use trace_call__##event() in events within trace_##event##_enabled() A couple of events are called within an if block guarded by trace_##event##_enabled(). That is a static key that is only enabled when the event is enabled. The trace_call_##event() calls the tracepoint code directly without adding a redundant static key for that check. - Allow perf to read synthetic events Currently, perf does not have the ability to enable a synthetic event. If it does, it will either cause a kernel warning or error with "No such device". Synthetic events are not much different than kprobes and perf can handle fine with a few modifications. - Replace printk(KERN_WARNING ...) with pr_warn() - Replace krealloc() on an array with krealloc_array() - Fix README file path name for synthetic events - Change tracing_map tracing_map_array to use a flexible array Instead of allocating a separate pointer to hold the pages field of tracing_map_array, allocate the pages field as a flexible array when allocating the structure. - Fold trace_iterator_increment() into trace_find_next_entry_inc() The function trace_iterator_increment() was only used by trace_find_next_entry_inc(). It's not big enough to be a helper function for one user. Fold it into its caller. - Make field_var_str field a flexible array of hist_elt_data Instead of allocating a separate pointer for the field_var_str array of the hist_elt_data structure, allocate it as a flexible array when allocating the structure. - Disable KCOV for trace_irqsoff.c Like trace_preemptirq.c, trace_irqsoff.c has code that will crash when KCOV is enabled on ARM. The irqsoff tracing can be called on ARM because the irqsoff tracing code can be run from early interrupt code and produce coverage unrelated to syscall inputs. - Fix warning in __unregister_ftrace_function() called by perf Perf calls unregister_ftrace_function() without checking if its ftrace_ops has already been unregistered. There's an error path where on clean up it will unregister the ftrace_ops even if it wasn't registered and causes a warning. * tag 'trace-v7.2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/trace/linux-trace: perf/ftrace: Fix WARNING in __unregister_ftrace_function tracing: Disable KCOV instrumentation for trace_irqsoff.o tracing: Turn hist_elt_data field_var_str into a flexible array tracing: Move trace_iterator_increment() into trace_find_next_entry_inc() tracing: Simplify pages allocation for tracing_map logic tracing: Fix README path for synthetic_events tracing: Use krealloc_array() for trace option array growth tracing/branch: Use pr_warn() instead of printk(KERN_WARNING) tracing: Allow perf to read synthetic events HID: Use trace_call__##name() at guarded tracepoint call sites cpufreq: amd-pstate: Use trace_call__##name() at guarded tracepoint call site tracefs: Fix typo in a comment of eventfs_callback() kerneldoc tracing: Switch trace_recursion_record.c code over to use guard() tracing: Remove local variable for argument detection from trace_printk() tracepoint: Add lockdep rcu_is_watching() check to trace_##name##_enabled() tracing: Bound synthetic-field strings with seq_buf seq_buf: Export seq_buf_putmem_hex() and add KUnit tests tracing: Remove redundant IS_ERR() check in trace_pipe_open()

2026-06-08cpufreq: Remove driver default policy->min/max initPierre Gondois
Prior to commit 521223d8b3ec ("cpufreq: Fix initialization of min and max frequency QoS requests"), drivers were setting policy->min/max and these values were used as initial policy QoS constraints. After the above commit, these values are only used temporarily, as cpufreq_set_policy() ultimately overrides them through: cpufreq_policy_online() \-cpufreq_init_policy() \-cpufreq_set_policy() \-/* Set policy->min/max */ A subsequent change will restore the previous behavior allowing drivers to request special min/max QoS frequencies instead of FREQ_QOS_MIN_DEFAULT_VALUE and FREQ_QOS_MAX_DEFAULT_VALUE, respectively, if desired. For instance, the CPPC driver wants to advertise the lowest non-linear frequency that should be used as the initial minimum frequency QoS request. However, for this purpose, all drivers setting policy->min/max to policy->cpuinfo.min/max_freq, respectively, need to be updated so their initial policy->min/max settings don't limit the frequency scaling unnecessarily going forward (which would defeat the purpose of commit 521223d8b3ec), so do that. This does not actually alter the observed behavior of all of the drivers in question because setting policy->min/max to policy->cpuinfo.min/max_freq, respectively, is not necessary or even useful any more after a previous change ("cpufreq: Set default policy->min/max values for all drivers").

2026-05-08cpufreq/amd-pstate: Use "epp_default_dc" as default when dynamic_epp is disabledK Prateek Nayak
If "dynamic_epp" is disabled, the driver initialization and the default EPP selection from sysfs currently sets the EPP based on the power supply state of the system at that time but there is no power supply callbacks registered to toggle it when the power supply state changes. This can lead to faster battery drain on platforms that start off while being plugged to the wall but later move to battery power since the EPP stays at AMD_CPPC_EPP_PERFORMANCE. Use "epp_default_dc" as the default EPP selection when dynamic_epp is disabled, restoring older behavior. On servers, this defaults to AMD_CPPC_EPP_PERFORMANCE and on other platforms, it defaults to AMD_CPPC_EPP_BALANCE_PERFORMANCE.

Concurrently changing driver mode and dynamic_epp with: echo passive > /sys/devices/system/cpu/amd_pstate/status& echo disable > /sys/devices/system/cpu/amd_pstate/dynamic_epp& hits the WARN_ON_ONCE() in static_key_disable_cpuslocked() and hangs the system since both sysfs writes are trying to do amd_pstate_change_driver_mode() without any synchronization. Grab the "amd_pstate_driver_lock" mutex when modifying "dynamic_epp" to prevent the two paths from racing with each other. Add a lockdep assertion for "amd_pstate_driver_lock" in amd_pstate_change_driver_mode() to formalize the dependency. Since "cppc_mode" is stable under "amd_pstate_driver_lock", only reload the driver when in "AMD_PSTATE_ACTIVE" mode and reject all writes when in passive or guided mode, or if the driver is not loaded, since only active mode operates on EPP.

Move the __printf() attribute around for when debugging is not enabled the warning will go away - Remove redundant check for EVENT_FILE_FL_FREED in event_filter_write() The FREED flag is checked in the call to event_file_file() and then checked again right afterward, which is unneeded - Clean up event_file_file() and event_file_data() helpers These helper functions played a different role in the past, but now with eventfs, the READ_ONCE() isn't needed. Simplify the code a bit and also add a warning to event_file_data() if the file or its data is not present - Remove updating file->private_data in tracing open All access to the file private data is handled by the helper functions, which do not use file->private_data. Stop updating it on open - Show ENUM names in function arguments via BTF in function tracing When showing the function arguments when func-args option is set for function tracing, if one of the arguments is found to be an enum, show the name of the enum instead of its number - Add new trace_call__##name() API for tracepoints Tracepoints are enabled via static_branch() blocks, where when not enabled, there's only a nop that is in the code where the execution will just skip over it. When tracing is enabled, the nop is converted to a direct jump to the tracepoint code. Sometimes more calculations are required to be performed to update the parameters of the tracepoint. In this case, trace_##name##_enabled() is called which is a static_branch() that gets enabled only when the tracepoint is enabled. This allows the extra calculations to also be skipped by the nop: if (trace_foo_enabled()) { x = bar(); trace_foo(x); } Where the x=bar() is only performed when foo is enabled. The problem with this approach is that there's now two static_branch() calls. One for checking if the tracepoint is enabled, and then again to know if the tracepoint should be called. The second one is redundant Introduce trace_call__foo() that will call the foo() tracepoint directly without doing a static_branch(): if (trace_foo_enabled()) { x = bar(); trace_call__foo(); } - Update various locations to use the new trace_call__##name() API - Move snapshot code out of trace.c Cleaning up trace.c to not be a "dump all", move the snapshot code out of it and into a new trace_snapshot.c file - Clean up some "%*.s" to "%*s" - Allow boot kernel command line options to be called multiple times Have options like: ftrace_filter=foo ftrace_filter=bar ftrace_filter=zoo Equal to: ftrace_filter=foo,bar,zoo - Fix ipi_raise event CPU field to be a CPU field The ipi_raise target_cpus field is defined as a __bitmask(). There is now a __cpumask() field definition. Update the field to use that - Have hist_field_name() use a snprintf() and not a series of strcat() It's safer to use snprintf() that a series of strcat() - Fix tracepoint regfunc balancing A tracepoint can define a "reg" and "unreg" function that gets called before the tracepoint is enabled, and after it is disabled respectively.

2026-04-02cpufreq: Pass the policy to cpufreq_driver->adjust_perf()K Prateek Nayak
cpufreq_cpu_get() can sleep on PREEMPT_RT in presence of concurrent writer(s), however amd-pstate depends on fetching the cpudata via the policy's driver data which necessitates grabbing the reference. Since schedutil governor can call "cpufreq_driver->update_perf()" during sched_tick/enqueue/dequeue with rq_lock held and IRQs disabled, fetching the policy object using the cpufreq_cpu_get() helper in the scheduler fast-path leads to "BUG: scheduling while atomic" on PREEMPT_RT [1]. Pass the cached cpufreq policy object in sg_policy to the update_perf() instead of just the CPU. The CPU can be inferred using "policy->cpu". The lifetime of cpufreq_policy object outlasts that of the governor and the cpufreq driver (allocated when the CPU is onlined and only reclaimed when the CPU is offlined / the CPU device is removed) which makes it safe to be referenced throughout the governor's lifetime.

2026-04-02amd-pstate-ut: Add a testcase to validate the visibility of driver attributesGautham R. Shenoy
amd-pstate driver has per-attribute visibility functions to dynamically control which sysfs freq_attrs are exposed based on the platform capabilities and the current amd_pstate mode. However, there is no test coverage to validate that the driver's live attribute list matches the expected visibility for each mode. Add amd_pstate_ut_check_freq_attrs() to the amd-pstate unit test module. For each enabled mode (passive, active, guided), the test independently derives the expected visibility of each attribute: - Core attributes (max_freq, lowest_nonlinear_freq, highest_perf) are always expected. - Prefcore attributes (prefcore_ranking, hw_prefcore) are expected only when cpudata->hw_prefcore indicates platform support. - EPP attributes (energy_performance_preference, energy_performance_available_preferences) are expected only in active mode. - Floor frequency attributes (floor_freq, floor_count) are expected only when X86_FEATURE_CPPC_PERF_PRIO is present. Compare these independent expectations against the live driver's attr array, catching bugs such as attributes leaking into wrong modes or visibility functions checking incorrect conditions.

2026-04-02amd-pstate: Add support for CPPC_REQ2 and FLOOR_PERFGautham R. Shenoy
Some future AMD processors have feature named "CPPC Performance Priority" which lets userspace specify different floor performance levels for different CPUs. The platform firmware takes these different floor performance levels into consideration while throttling the CPUs under power/thermal constraints. The presence of this feature is indicated by bit 16 of the EDX register for CPUID leaf 0x80000007. More details can be found in AMD Publication titled "AMD64 Collaborative Processor Performance Control (CPPC) Performance Priority" Revision 1.10. The number of distinct floor performance levels supported on the platform will be advertised through the bits 32:39 of the MSR_AMD_CPPC_CAP1. Bits 0:7 of a new MSR MSR_AMD_CPPC_REQ2 (0xc00102b5) will be used to specify the desired floor performance level for that CPU. Add support for the aforementioned MSR_AMD_CPPC_REQ2, and macros for parsing and updating the relevant bits from MSR_AMD_CPPC_CAP1 and MSR_AMD_CPPC_REQ2. On boot if the default value of the MSR_AMD_CPPC_REQ2[7:0] (Floor Perf) is lower than CPPC.lowest_perf, and thus invalid, initialize it to MSR_AMD_CPPC_CAP1.nominal_perf which is a sane default value. Save the boot-time floor_perf during amd_pstate_init_floor_perf(). In a subsequent patch it will be restored in the suspend, offline, and exit paths, mirroring how bios_min_perf is handled for MSR_AMD_CPPC_REQ.

2026-03-30cpufreq: Add boost_freq_req QoS requestPierre Gondois
The Power Management Quality of Service (PM QoS) allows to aggregate constraints from multiple entities. It is currently used to manage the min/max frequency of a given policy. Frequency constraints can come for instance from: - Thermal framework: acpi_thermal_cpufreq_init() - Firmware: _PPC objects: acpi_processor_ppc_init() - User: by setting policyX/scaling_[min|max]_freq The minimum of the max frequency constraints is used to compute the resulting maximum allowed frequency. When enabling boost frequencies, the same frequency request object (policy->max_freq_req) as to handle requests from users is used. As a result, when setting: - scaling_max_freq - boost The last sysfs file used overwrites the request from the other sysfs file. To avoid this, create a per-policy boost_freq_req to save the boost constraints instead of overwriting the last scaling_max_freq constraint. policy_set_boost() calls the cpufreq set_boost callback. Update the newly added boost_freq_req request from there: - whenever boost is toggled - to cover all possible paths In the existing .set_boost() callbacks: - Don't update policy->max as this is done through the qos notifier cpufreq_notifier_max() which calls cpufreq_set_policy(). - Remove freq_qos_update_request() calls as the qos request is now done in policy_set_boost() and updates the new boost_freq_req $ ## Init state scaling_max_freq:1000000 cpuinfo_max_freq:1000000 $ echo 700000 > scaling_max_freq scaling_max_freq:700000 cpuinfo_max_freq:1000000 $ echo 1 > ../boost scaling_max_freq:1200000 cpuinfo_max_freq:1200000 $ echo 800000 > scaling_max_freq scaling_max_freq:800000 cpuinfo_max_freq:1200000 $ ## Final step: $ ## Without the patches: $ echo 0 > ../boost scaling_max_freq:1000000 cpuinfo_max_freq:1000000 $ ## With the patches: $ echo 0 > ../boost scaling_max_freq:800000 cpuinfo_max_freq:1000000 Note: cpufreq_frequency_table_cpuinfo() updates policy->min and max from: A. cpufreq_boost_set_sw() \-cpufreq_frequency_table_cpuinfo() B. cpufreq_policy_online() \-cpufreq_table_validate_and_sort() \-cpufreq_frequency_table_cpuinfo() Keep these updates as some drivers expect policy->min and max to be set through B.

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 *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <kees@kernel.org>

2025-11-10cpufreq/amd-pstate: Call cppc_set_auto_sel() only for online CPUsGautham R. Shenoy
amd_pstate_change_mode_without_dvr_change() calls cppc_set_auto_sel() for all the present CPUs. However, this callpath eventually calls cppc_set_reg_val() which accesses the per-cpu cpc_desc_ptr object. This object is initialized only for online CPUs via acpi_soft_cpu_online() --> __acpi_processor_start() --> acpi_cppc_processor_probe(). Hence, restrict calling cppc_set_auto_sel() to only the online CPUs.
