cpufreq: remove redundant CPUFREQ_INCOMPATIBLE notifier event

2015-09-01T13:50:38+00:00

What's being done from CPUFREQ_INCOMPATIBLE, can also be done with
CPUFREQ_ADJUST. There is nothing special with CPUFREQ_INCOMPATIBLE
notifier.

Kill CPUFREQ_INCOMPATIBLE and fix its usage sites.

This also updates the numbering of notifier events to remove holes.

ACPI / processor: Drop an unused argument of a cleanup routine

2015-07-22T20:11:16+00:00

acpi_processor_unregister_performance() actually doesn't use its
first argument, so drop it and update the callers accordingly.

ACPI: Remove FSF mailing addresses

2015-07-08T00:27:32+00:00

There is no need to carry potentially outdated Free Software Foundation
mailing address in file headers since the COPYING file includes it.

ACPI / processor: use acpi_evaluate_ost() to replace open-coded version

Use public function acpi_evaluate_ost() to replace open-coded
version of evaluating ACPI _OST method.

ACPI: Clean up inclusions of ACPI header files

2013-12-07T00:03:14+00:00

Replace direct inclusions of ,  and
, which are incorrect, with 
inclusions and remove some inclusions of those files that aren't
necessary.

First of all, ,  and 
should not be included directly from any files that are built for
CONFIG_ACPI unset, because that generally leads to build warnings about
undefined symbols in !CONFIG_ACPI builds.  For CONFIG_ACPI set,
 includes those files and for CONFIG_ACPI unset it
provides stub ACPI symbols to be used in that case.

Second, there are ordering dependencies between those files that always
have to be met.  Namely, it is required that  be included
prior to  so that the acpi_pci_root declarations the
latter depends on are always there.  And  which provides
basic ACPICA type declarations should always be included prior to any other
ACPI headers in CONFIG_ACPI builds.  That also is taken care of including
 as appropriate.

ACPI / processor: Do not request ACPI cpufreq module directly

2013-10-29T23:00:30+00:00

Function acpi_processor_load_module() used by the ACPI processor
driver can only really work if the acpi-cpufreq module is available
when acpi_processor_start() is executed which usually is not the case
for systems loading the processor driver module from an initramfs.

Moreover, that used to be a hackish workaround for module autoloading
issues, but udev loads acpi-cpufreq just fine nowadays, so that
function isn't really necessary any more.  For this reason, drop
acpi_processor_load_module() entirely.

ACPI / processor: Drop unused variable from processor_perflib.c

2013-06-25T21:05:24+00:00

The count variable in acpi_processor_preregister_performance() is
only initalized as 1 for one CPU and incremented when another CPU
sharing the same dependency domain is found.  It isn't referenced
anywhere else, so drop it.

acpi: Export the acpi_processor_get_performance_info

2013-03-06T15:00:34+00:00

The git commit d5aaffa9dd531c978c6f3fea06a2972653bd7fc8
(cpufreq: handle cpufreq being disabled for all exported function)
tightens the cpufreq API by returning errors when disable_cpufreq()
had been called.

The problem we are hitting is that the module xen-acpi-processor which
uses the ACPI's functions: acpi_processor_register_performance,
acpi_processor_preregister_performance, and acpi_processor_notify_smm
fails at acpi_processor_register_performance with -22.

Note that earlier during bootup in arch/x86/xen/setup.c there is also
an call to cpufreq's API: disable_cpufreq().

This is b/c we want the Linux kernel to parse the ACPI data, but leave
the cpufreq decisions to the hypervisor.

In v3.9 all the checks that d5aaffa9dd531c978c6f3fea06a2972653bd7fc8
added are now hit and the calls to cpufreq_register_notifier will now
fail. This means that acpi_processor_ppc_init ends up printing:

"Warning: Processor Platform Limit not supported"

and the acpi_processor_ppc_status is not set.

The repercussions of that is that the call to
acpi_processor_register_performance fails right away at:

	if (!(acpi_processor_ppc_status & PPC_REGISTERED))

and we don't progress any further on parsing and extracting the _P*
objects.

The only reason the Xen code called that function was b/c it was
exported and the only way to gather the P-states. But we can also
just make acpi_processor_get_performance_info be exported and not
use acpi_processor_register_performance. This patch does so.
