PM / suspend: Fix missing KERN_CONT for suspend message
The only times at which intel_pstate checks the policy set for
a given CPU is the initialization of that CPU and updates of its
policy settings from cpufreq when intel_pstate_set_policy() is
invoked.
That is insufficient, however, because intel_pstate uses the same
P-state selection function for all CPUs regardless of the policy
setting for each of them and the P-state limits are shared between
them. Thus if the policy is set to "performance" for a particular
CPU, it may not behave as expected if the cpufreq settings are
changed subsequently for another CPU.
That can be easily demonstrated by writing "performance" to
scaling_governor for all CPUs and then switching it to "powersave"
for one of them in which case all of the CPUs will behave as though
their scaling_governor were all "powersave" (even though the policy
still appears to be "performance" for the remaining CPUs).
Fix this problem by modifying intel_pstate_adjust_busy_pstate() to
always set the P-state to the maximum allowed by the current limits
for all CPUs whose policy is set to "performance".
Note that it still is recommended to always change the policy setting
in the same way for all CPUs even with this fix applied to avoid
confusion.

After commit a4675fbc4a (cpufreq: intel_pstate: Replace timers with
utilization update callbacks) the cpufreq governor callbacks may not
be invoked on NOHZ_FULL CPUs and, in particular, switching to the
"performance" policy via sysfs may not have any effect on them. That
is a problem, because it usually is desirable to squeeze the last
bit of performance out of those CPUs, so work around it by setting
the maximum P-state (within the limits) in intel_pstate_set_policy()
upfront when the policy is CPUFREQ_POLICY_PERFORMANCE.

Commit d352cf47d9 (cpufreq: conservative: Do not use transition
notifications) overlooked the case when the "frequency step" used
by the conservative governor is small relative to the distances
between the available frequencies and broke the algorithm by
using policy->cur instead of the previously requested frequency
when computing the next one.
As a result, the governor may not be able to go outside of a narrow
range between two consecutive available frequencies.
Fix the problem by making the governor save the previously requested
frequency and select the next one relative that value (unless it is
out of range, in which case policy->cur will be used instead).

The PID algorithm used by the intel_pstate driver tends to drive
performance to the minimum for workloads with utilization below the
setpoint, which is undesirable, so replace it with a modified
"proportional" algorithm on Atom.
The new algorithm will set the new P-state to be 1.25 times the
available maximum times the (frequency-invariant) utilization during
the previous sampling period except when the target P-state computed
this way is lower than the average P-state during the previous
sampling period. In the latter case, it will increase the target by
50% of the difference between it and the average P-state to prevent
performance from dropping down too fast in some cases.

Testing indicates that it is possible to improve performace
significantly without increasing energy consumption too much by
teaching cpufreq governors to bump up the CPU performance level if
the in_iowait flag is set for the task in enqueue_task_fair().
For this purpose, define a new cpufreq_update_util() flag
SCHED_CPUFREQ_IOWAIT and modify enqueue_task_fair() to pass that
flag to cpufreq_update_util() in the in_iowait case. That generally
requires cpufreq_update_util() to be called directly from there,
because update_load_avg() may not be invoked in that case.

All of the callers of cpufreq_update_util() pass rq_clock(rq) to it

take a runqueue pointer as the argument and move the rq_clock(rq)
evaluation into it.
Additionally, provide a wrapper checking cpu_of(rq) against
smp_processor_id() for the cpufreq_update_util() callers that
need it.

It is useful to know the reason why cpufreq_update_util() has just
been called and that can be passed as flags to cpufreq_update_util()
and to the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data. However,
doing that in addition to passing the util and max arguments they
already take would be clumsy, so avoid it.
Instead, use the observation that the schedutil governor is part
of the scheduler proper, so it can access scheduler data directly.
This allows the util and max arguments of cpufreq_update_util()
and the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data to be replaced
with a flags one, but schedutil has to be modified to follow.
Thus make the schedutil governor obtain the CFS utilization
information from the scheduler and use the "RT" and "DL" flags
instead of the special utilization value of ULONG_MAX to track
updates from the RT and DL sched classes. Make it non-modular
too to avoid having to export scheduler variables to modules at
large.
Next, update all of the other users of cpufreq_update_util()
and the ->func() callback in struct update_util_data accordingly.

The low-level resume-from-hibernation code on x86-64 uses
kernel_ident_mapping_init() to create the temoprary identity mapping,
but that function assumes that the offset between kernel virtual
addresses and physical addresses is aligned on the PGD level.
However, with a randomized identity mapping base, it may be aligned
on the PUD level and if that happens, the temporary identity mapping
created by set_up_temporary_mappings() will not reflect the actual
kernel identity mapping and the image restoration will fail as a
result (leading to a kernel panic most of the time).
To fix this problem, rework kernel_ident_mapping_init() to support
unaligned offsets between KVA and PA up to the PMD level and make
set_up_temporary_mappings() use it as approprtiate.

If a PCI bridge (or PCIe port) that is runtime-suspended gets an ACPI
hotplug notification, such as a bus check, it has to be resumed before
re-scanning the devices below it, or those devices will not be
accessible and will be treated as hot-removed.
Make that happen and let the bridge suspend again after the bus below it
has been re-scanned.
This is a replacement for commit 16468c783c ("ACPI / hotplug / PCI:
Runtime resume bridge before rescan") that has been reverted, because it
introduced a system resume regression (due to missing bridge->pci_dev
checks that are necessary in case the notification is targeted at the
host bridge) and it is necessary for the code added by commit
006d44e49a ("PCI: Add runtime PM support for PCIe ports") to work as
expected.

When CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY is set on x86-64, __PAGE_OFFSET becomes
a variable and using it as a symbol in the image memory restoration
assembly code under core_restore_code is not correct any more.
To avoid that problem, modify set_up_temporary_mappings() to compute
the physical address of the temporary page tables and store it in
temp_level4_pgt, so that the value of that variable is ready to be
written into CR3. Then, the assembly code doesn't have to worry
about converting that value into a physical address and things work
regardless of whether or not CONFIG_RANDOMIZE_MEMORY is set.

Currently, intel_pstate only updates the cpu_frequency tracepoint
if the new P-state to set is different from the current one, but
that causes powertop to report 100% idle on an 100% loaded system
sometimes.

Acked-by: Srinivas Pandruvada <[email protected]>-
On Intel hardware, native_play_dead() uses mwait_play_dead() by
default and only falls back to the other methods if that fails.
That also happens during resume from hibernation, when the restore
(boot) kernel runs disable_nonboot_cpus() to take all of the CPUs
except for the boot one offline.
However, that is problematic, because the address passed to
__monitor() in mwait_play_dead() is likely to be written to in the
last phase of hibernate image restoration and that causes the "dead"
CPU to start executing instructions again. Unfortunately, the page
containing the address in that CPU's instruction pointer may not be
valid any more at that point.
First, that page may have been overwritten with image kernel memory
contents already, so the instructions the CPU attempts to execute may
simply be invalid. Second, the page tables previously used by that
CPU may have been overwritten by image kernel memory contents, so the
address in its instruction pointer is impossible to resolve then.
A report from Varun Koyyalagunta and investigation carried out by
Chen Yu show that the latter sometimes happens in practice.
To prevent it from happening, temporarily change the smp_ops.play_dead
pointer during resume from hibernation so that it points to a special
"play dead" routine which uses hlt_play_dead() and avoids the
inadvertent "revivals" of "dead" CPUs this way.
A slightly unpleasant consequence of this change is that if the
system is hibernated with one or more CPUs offline, it will generally
draw more power after resume than it did before hibernation, because
the physical state entered by CPUs via hlt_play_dead() is higher-power
than the mwait_play_dead() one in the majority of cases. It is
possible to work around this, but it is unclear how much of a problem
that's going to be in practice, so the workaround will be implemented
later if it turns out to be necessary.

Make it possible to protect all pages holding image data during
hibernate image restoration by setting them read-only (so as to
catch attempts to write to those pages after image data have been
stored in them).
This adds overhead to image restoration code (it may cause large
page mappings to be split as a result of page flags changes) and
the errors it protects against should never happen in theory, so
the feature is only active after passing hibernate=protect_image
to the command line of the restore kernel.
Also it only is built if CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is set.

One of the memory bitmaps used by the hibernation image restoration
code is freed after the image has been loaded.
That is not quite efficient, though, because the memory pages used
for building that bitmap are known to be safe (ie. they were not
used by the image kernel before hibernation) and the arch-specific
code finalizing the image restoration may need them. In that case
it needs to allocate those pages again via the memory management
subsystem, check if they are really safe again by consulting the
other bitmaps and so on.
To avoid that, recycle those pages by putting them into the global
list of known safe pages so that they can be given to the arch code
right away when necessary.

Rework mark_unsafe_pages() to use a simpler method of clearing
all bits in free_pages_map and to set the bits for the "unsafe"
pages (ie. pages that were used by the image kernel before
hibernation) with the help of duplicate_memory_bitmap().
For this purpose, move the pfn_valid() check from mark_unsafe_pages()
to unpack_orig_pfns() where the "unsafe" pages are discovered.

The core image restoration code preallocates some safe pages
(ie. pages that weren't used by the image kernel before hibernation)
for future use before allocating the bulk of memory for loading the
image data. Those safe pages are then freed so they can be allocated
again (with the memory management subsystem's help). That's done to
ensure that there will be enough safe pages for temporary data
structures needed during image restoration.
However, it is not really necessary to free those pages after they
have been allocated. They can be added to the (global) list of
safe pages right away and then picked up from there when needed
without freeing.
That reduces the overhead related to using safe pages, especially
in the arch-specific code, so modify the code accordingly.

Arjan reports that it takes a relatively long time to enable runtime
PM for multiple devices at system startup, because all writes to the
"control" attribute in sysfs are handled synchronously and if the
device is suspended as a result of the write, it will block until
that operation is complete.
That may be avoided by passing the RPM_ASYNC flag to rpm_idle()
in pm_runtime_allow() which will make it execute the device's
"idle" callback asynchronously, so writes to "control" changing
it from "on" to "auto" will return without waiting.

Logan Gunthorpe reports that hibernation stopped working reliably for
him after commit ab76f7b4ab (x86/mm: Set NX on gap between __ex_table
and rodata).
That turns out to be a consequence of a long-standing issue with the
64-bit image restoration code on x86, which is that the temporary
page tables set up by it to avoid page tables corruption when the
last bits of the image kernel's memory contents are copied into
their original page frames re-use the boot kernel's text mapping,
but that mapping may very well get corrupted just like any other
part of the page tables. Of course, if that happens, the final
jump to the image kernel's entry point will go to nowhere.
The exact reason why commit ab76f7b4ab matters here is that it
sometimes causes a PMD of a large page to be split into PTEs
that are allocated dynamically and get corrupted during image
restoration as described above.
To fix that issue note that the code copying the last bits of the
image kernel's memory contents to the page frames occupied by them
previoulsy doesn't use the kernel text mapping, because it runs from
a special page covered by the identity mapping set up for that code
from scratch. Hence, the kernel text mapping is only needed before
that code starts to run and then it will only be used just for the
final jump to the image kernel's entry point.
Accordingly, the temporary page tables set up in swsusp_arch_resume()
on x86-64 need to contain the kernel text mapping too. That mapping
is only going to be used for the final jump to the image kernel, so
it only needs to cover the image kernel's entry point, because the
first thing the image kernel does after getting control back is to
switch over to its own original page tables. Moreover, the virtual
address of the image kernel's entry point in that mapping has to be
the same as the one mapped by the image kernel's page tables.
With that in mind, modify the x86-64's arch_hibernation_header_save()
and arch_hibernation_header_restore() routines to pass the physical
address of the image kernel's entry point (in addition to its virtual
address) to the boot kernel (a small piece of assembly code involved
in passing the entry point's virtual address to the image kernel is
not necessary any more after that, so drop it). Update RESTORE_MAGIC
too to reflect the image header format change.
Next, in set_up_temporary_mappings(), use the physical and virtual
addresses of the image kernel's entry point passed in the image
header to set up a minimum kernel text mapping (using memory pages
that won't be overwritten by the image kernel's memory contents) that
will map those addresses to each other as appropriate.
This makes the concern about the possible corruption of the original
boot kernel text mapping go away and if the the minimum kernel text
mapping used for the final jump marks the image kernel's entry point
memory as executable, the jump to it is guaraneed to succeed.

Cc: 4.6+ <[email protected]> # 4.6+
intel_pstate_set_policy() is invoked by the cpufreq core during
driver initialization, on changes of policy attributes (minimim and
maximum frequency, for example) via sysfs and via CPU notifications
from the platform firmware. On some platforms the latter may occur
relatively often.
Commit bb6ab52f2b (intel_pstate: Do not set utilization update hook
too early) made intel_pstate_set_policy() clear the CPU's utilization
update hook before updating the policy attributes for it (and set the
hook again after doind that), but that involves invoking
synchronize_sched() and adds overhead to the CPU notifications
mentioned above and to the sched-RCU handling in general.
That extra overhead is arguably not necessary, because updating
policy attributes when the CPU's utilization update hook is active
should not lead to any adverse effects, so drop the clearing of
the hook from intel_pstate_set_policy() and make it check if
the hook has been set already when attempting to set it.
