big.LITTLE switching complicates the setting of a correct cpufreq-based
frequency invariance scale factor due to (as observed in
drivers/cpufreq/vexpress-spc-cpufreq.c):
- Incorrect current and maximum frequencies as a result of the
exposure of a virtual frequency table to the cpufreq core,
- Missed updates as a result of asynchronous frequency adjustments
caused by frequency changes in other CPU pairs.
Given that its functionality is atypical in regards to frequency
invariance and this is an old technology, disable frequency
invariance for when big.LITTLE switching is configured in to prevent
incorrect scale setting.

Compared to other arch_* functions, arch_set_freq_scale() has an atypical
weak definition that can be replaced by a strong architecture specific
implementation.
The more typical support for architectural functions involves defining
an empty stub in a header file if the symbol is not already defined in
architecture code. Some examples involve:
- #define arch_scale_freq_capacity topology_get_freq_scale
- #define arch_scale_freq_invariant topology_scale_freq_invariant
- #define arch_scale_cpu_capacity topology_get_cpu_scale
- #define arch_update_cpu_topology topology_update_cpu_topology
- #define arch_scale_thermal_pressure topology_get_thermal_pressure
- #define arch_set_thermal_pressure topology_set_thermal_pressure
Bring arch_set_freq_scale() in line with these functions by renaming it to
topology_set_freq_scale() in the arch topology driver, and by defining the
arch_set_freq_scale symbol to point to the new function for arm and arm64.
While there are other users of the arch_topology driver, this patch defines
arch_set_freq_scale for arm and arm64 only, due to their existing
definitions of arch_scale_freq_capacity. This is the getter function of the
frequency invariance scale factor and without a getter function, the
setter function - arch_set_freq_scale() has not purpose.

arch_scale_freq_invariant() is used by schedutil to determine whether
the scheduler's load-tracking signals are frequency invariant. Its
definition is overridable, though by default it is hardcoded to 'true'
if arch_scale_freq_capacity() is defined ('false' otherwise).
This behaviour is not overridden on arm, arm64 and other users of the
generic arch topology driver, which is somewhat precarious:
arch_scale_freq_capacity() will always be defined, yet not all cpufreq
drivers are guaranteed to drive the frequency invariance scale factor
setting. In other words, the load-tracking signals may very well *not*
be frequency invariant.
Now that cpufreq can be queried on whether the current driver is driving
the Frequency Invariance (FI) scale setting, the current situation can
be improved. This combines the query of whether cpufreq supports the
setting of the frequency scale factor, with whether all online CPUs are
counter-based FI enabled.
While cpufreq FI enablement applies at system level, for all CPUs,
counter-based FI support could also be used for only a subset of CPUs to
set the invariance scale factor. Therefore, if cpufreq-based FI support
is present, we consider the system to be invariant. If missing, we
require all online CPUs to be counter-based FI enabled in order for the
full system to be considered invariant.
If the system ends up not being invariant, a new condition is needed in
the counter initialization code that disables all scale factor setting
based on counters.
Precedence of counters over cpufreq use is not important here. The
invariant status is only given to the system if all CPUs have at least
one method of setting the frequency scale factor.

The following commit:
14533a16c46d ("thermal/cpu-cooling, sched/core: Move the arch_set_thermal_pressure() API to generic scheduler code")
moved the definition of arch_set_thermal_pressure() to sched/core.c, but
kept its declaration in linux/arch_topology.h. When building e.g. an x86
kernel with CONFIG_SCHED_THERMAL_PRESSURE=y, cpufreq_cooling.c ends up
getting the declaration of arch_set_thermal_pressure() from
include/linux/arch_topology.h, which is somewhat awkward.
On top of this, sched/core.c unconditionally defines
o The thermal_pressure percpu variable
o arch_set_thermal_pressure()
while arch_scale_thermal_pressure() does nothing unless redefined by the
architecture.
arch_*() functions are meant to be defined by architectures, so revert the
aforementioned commit and re-implement it in a way that keeps
arch_set_thermal_pressure() architecture-definable, and doesn't define the
thermal pressure percpu variable for kernels that don't need
it (CONFIG_SCHED_THERMAL_PRESSURE=n).

Currently, ARM32 and ARM64 uses different data structures to represent
their cpu topologies. Since, we are moving the ARM64 topology to common
code to be used by other architectures, we can reuse that for ARM32 as
well.
Take this opprtunity to remove the redundant functions from ARM32 and
reuse the common code instead.

Asymmetric CPU capacity can not necessarily be determined accurately at
the time the initial sched_domain hierarchy is built during boot. It is
therefore necessary to be able to force a full rebuild of the hierarchy
later triggered by the arch_topology driver. A full rebuild requires the
arch-code to implement arch_update_cpu_topology() which isn't yet
implemented for arm. This patch points the arm implementation to
arch_topology driver to ensure that full hierarchy rebuild happens when
needed.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Define arch_scale_cpu_capacity to use the arch_topology "driver"
function topology_get_cpu_scale() for the task scheduler's cpu-invariant

The affinity between ARM processors is defined in the MPIDR register.
We can identify which processors are in the same cluster,
and which ones have performance interdependency. We can define the
cpu topology of ARM platform, that is then used by sched_mc and sched_smt.
The default state of sched_mc and sched_smt config is disable.
When enabled, the behavior of the scheduler can be modified with
sched_mc_power_savings and sched_smt_power_savings sysfs interfaces.
