From d3c3db41df7e1bdefc9c68073070b62ce3b260bd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pierre Gondois Date: Mon, 25 Apr 2022 14:38:07 +0200 Subject: cpufreq: CPPC: Add per_cpu efficiency_class MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit In ACPI, describing power efficiency of CPUs can be done through the following arm specific field: ACPI 6.4, s5.2.12.14 'GIC CPU Interface (GICC) Structure', 'Processor Power Efficiency Class field': Describes the relative power efficiency of the associated pro- cessor. Lower efficiency class numbers are more efficient than higher ones (e.g. efficiency class 0 should be treated as more efficient than efficiency class 1). However, absolute values of this number have no meaning: 2 isn’t necessarily half as efficient as 1. The efficiency_class field is stored in the GicC structure of the ACPI MADT table and it's currently supported in Linux for arm64 only. Thus, this new functionality is introduced for arm64 only. To allow the cppc_cpufreq driver to know and preprocess the efficiency_class values of all the CPUs, add a per_cpu efficiency_class variable to store them. At least 2 different efficiency classes must be present, otherwise there is no use in creating an Energy Model. The efficiency_class values are squeezed in [0:#efficiency_class-1] while conserving the order. For instance, efficiency classes of: [111, 212, 250] will be mapped to: [0 (was 111), 1 (was 212), 2 (was 250)]. Each policy being independently registered in the driver, populating the per_cpu efficiency_class is done only once at the driver initialization. This prevents from having each policy re-searching the efficiency_class values of other CPUs. The EM will be registered in a following patch. The patch also exports acpi_cpu_get_madt_gicc() to fetch the GicC structure of the ACPI MADT table for each CPU.
