cpufreq: schedutil: New governor based on scheduler utilization data Add a new cpufreq scaling governor, called "schedutil", that uses scheduler-provided CPU utilization information as input for making its decisions. Doing that is possible after commit 34e2c555f3e1 (cpufreq: Add mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks) that introduced cpufreq_update_util() called by the scheduler on utilization changes (from CFS) and RT/DL task status updates. In particular, CPU frequency scaling decisions may be based on the the utilization data passed to cpufreq_update_util() by CFS. The new governor is relatively simple. The frequency selection formula used by it depends on whether or not the utilization is frequency-invariant. In the frequency-invariant case the new CPU frequency is given by next_freq = 1.25 * max_freq * util / max where util and max are the last two arguments of cpufreq_update_util(). In turn, if util is not frequency-invariant, the maximum frequency in the above formula is replaced with the current frequency of the CPU: next_freq = 1.25 * curr_freq * util / max The coefficient 1.25 corresponds to the frequency tipping point at (util / max) = 0.8. All of the computations are carried out in the utilization update handlers provided by the new governor. One of those handlers is used for cpufreq policies shared between multiple CPUs and the other one is for policies with one CPU only (and therefore it doesn't need to use any extra synchronization means). The governor supports fast frequency switching if that is supported by the cpufreq driver in use and possible for the given policy. In the fast switching case, all operations of the governor take place in its utilization update handlers. If fast switching cannot be used, the frequency switch operations are carried out with the help of a work item which only calls __cpufreq_driver_target() (under a mutex) to trigger a frequency update (to a value already computed beforehand in one of the utilization update handlers). Currently, the governor treats all of the RT and DL tasks as "unknown utilization" and sets the frequency to the allowed maximum when updated from the RT or DL sched classes. That heavy-handed approach should be replaced with something more subtle and specifically targeted at RT and DL tasks. The governor shares some tunables management code with the "ondemand" and "conservative" governors and uses some common definitions from cpufreq_governor.h, but apart from that it is stand-alone.

ANDROID: cpufreq: schedutil: add up/down frequency transition rate limits The rate-limit tunable in the schedutil governor applies to transitions to both lower and higher frequencies. On several platforms it is not the ideal tunable though, as it is difficult to get best power/performance figures using the same limit in both directions. It is common on mobile platforms with demanding user interfaces to want to increase frequency rapidly for example but decrease slowly. One of the example can be a case where we have short busy periods followed by similar or longer idle periods. If we keep the rate-limit high enough, we will not go to higher frequencies soon enough. On the other hand, if we keep it too low, we will have too many frequency transitions, as we will always reduce the frequency after the busy period. It would be very useful if we can set low rate-limit while increasing the frequency (so that we can respond to the short busy periods quickly) and high rate-limit while decreasing frequency (so that we don't reduce the frequency immediately after the short busy period and that may avoid frequency transitions before the next busy period). Implement separate up/down transition rate limits. Note that the governor avoids frequency recalculations for a period equal to minimum of up and down rate-limit. A global mutex is also defined to protect updates to min_rate_limit_us via two separate sysfs files. Note that this wouldn't change behavior of the schedutil governor for the platforms which wish to keep same values for both up and down rate limits. This is tested with the rt-app [1] on ARM Exynos, dual A15 processor platform. Testcase: Run a SCHED_OTHER thread on CPU0 which will emulate work-load for X ms of busy period out of the total period of Y ms, i.e. Y - X ms of idle period. The values of X/Y taken were: 20/40, 20/50, 20/70, i.e idle periods of 20, 30 and 50 ms respectively. These were tested against values of up/down rate limits as: 10/10 ms and 10/40 ms. For every test we noticed a performance increase of 5-10% with the schedutil governor, which was very much expected. [Viresh]: Simplified user interface and introduced min_rate_limit_us + mutex, rewrote commit log and included test results.

cpufreq: schedutil: New governor based on scheduler utilization data Add a new cpufreq scaling governor, called "schedutil", that uses scheduler-provided CPU utilization information as input for making its decisions. Doing that is possible after commit 34e2c555f3e1 (cpufreq: Add mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks) that introduced cpufreq_update_util() called by the scheduler on utilization changes (from CFS) and RT/DL task status updates. In particular, CPU frequency scaling decisions may be based on the the utilization data passed to cpufreq_update_util() by CFS. The new governor is relatively simple. The frequency selection formula used by it depends on whether or not the utilization is frequency-invariant. In the frequency-invariant case the new CPU frequency is given by next_freq = 1.25 * max_freq * util / max where util and max are the last two arguments of cpufreq_update_util(). In turn, if util is not frequency-invariant, the maximum frequency in the above formula is replaced with the current frequency of the CPU: next_freq = 1.25 * curr_freq * util / max The coefficient 1.25 corresponds to the frequency tipping point at (util / max) = 0.8. All of the computations are carried out in the utilization update handlers provided by the new governor. One of those handlers is used for cpufreq policies shared between multiple CPUs and the other one is for policies with one CPU only (and therefore it doesn't need to use any extra synchronization means).

UPSTREAM: cpufreq: schedutil: Make iowait boost more energy efficient Currently the iowait_boost feature in schedutil makes the frequency go to max on iowait wakeups. This feature was added to handle a case that Peter described where the throughput of operations involving continuous I/O requests [1] is reduced due to running at a lower frequency, however the lower throughput itself causes utilization to be low and hence causing frequency to be low hence its "stuck". Instead of going to max, its also possible to achieve the same effect by ramping up to max if there are repeated in_iowait wakeups happening. This patch is an attempt to do that. We start from a lower frequency (policy->min) and double the boost for every consecutive iowait update until we reach the maximum iowait boost frequency (iowait_boost_max). I ran a synthetic test (continuous O_DIRECT writes in a loop) on an x86 machine with intel_pstate in passive mode using schedutil. In this test the iowait_boost value ramped from 800MHz to 4GHz in 60ms. The patch achieves the desired improved throughput as the existing behavior.

UPSTREAM: cpufreq: schedutil: Avoid reducing frequency of busy CPUs prematurely The way the schedutil governor uses the PELT metric causes it to underestimate the CPU utilization in some cases. That can be easily demonstrated by running kernel compilation on a Sandy Bridge Intel processor, running turbostat in parallel with it and looking at the values written to the MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL register. Namely, the expected result would be that when all CPUs were 100% busy, all of them would be requested to run in the maximum P-state, but observation shows that this clearly isn't the case. The CPUs run in the maximum P-state for a while and then are requested to run slower and go back to the maximum P-state after a while again. That causes the actual frequency of the processor to visibly oscillate below the sustainable maximum in a jittery fashion which clearly is not desirable. That has been attributed to CPU utilization metric updates on task migration that cause the total utilization value for the CPU to be reduced by the utilization of the migrated task. If that happens, the schedutil governor may see a CPU utilization reduction and will attempt to reduce the CPU frequency accordingly right away. That may be premature, though, for example if the system is generally busy and there are other runnable tasks waiting to be run on that CPU already. This is unlikely to be an issue on systems where cpufreq policies are shared between multiple CPUs, because in those cases the policy utilization is computed as the maximum of the CPU utilization values over the whole policy and if that turns out to be low, reducing the frequency for the policy most likely is a good idea anyway. On systems with one CPU per policy, however, it may affect performance adversely and even lead to increased energy consumption in some cases. On those systems it may be addressed by taking another utilization metric into consideration, like whether or not the CPU whose frequency is about to be reduced has been idle recently, because if that's not the case, the CPU is likely to be busy in the near future and its frequency should not be reduced. To that end, use the counter of idle calls in the timekeeping code. Namely, make the schedutil governor look at that counter for the current CPU every time before its frequency is about to be reduced. If the counter has not changed since the previous iteration of the governor computations for that CPU, the CPU has been busy for all that time and its frequency should not be decreased, so if the new frequency would be lower than the one set previously, the governor will skip the frequency update.

cpufreq: schedutil: New governor based on scheduler utilization data Add a new cpufreq scaling governor, called "schedutil", that uses scheduler-provided CPU utilization information as input for making its decisions. Doing that is possible after commit 34e2c555f3e1 (cpufreq: Add mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks) that introduced cpufreq_update_util() called by the scheduler on utilization changes (from CFS) and RT/DL task status updates. In particular, CPU frequency scaling decisions may be based on the the utilization data passed to cpufreq_update_util() by CFS. The new governor is relatively simple. The frequency selection formula used by it depends on whether or not the utilization is frequency-invariant. In the frequency-invariant case the new CPU frequency is given by next_freq = 1.25 * max_freq * util / max where util and max are the last two arguments of cpufreq_update_util(). In turn, if util is not frequency-invariant, the maximum frequency in the above formula is replaced with the current frequency of the CPU: next_freq = 1.25 * curr_freq * util / max The coefficient 1.25 corresponds to the frequency tipping point at (util / max) = 0.8. All of the computations are carried out in the utilization update handlers provided by the new governor. One of those handlers is used for cpufreq policies shared between multiple CPUs and the other one is for policies with one CPU only (and therefore it doesn't need to use any extra synchronization means). The governor supports fast frequency switching if that is supported by the cpufreq driver in use and possible for the given policy. In the fast switching case, all operations of the governor take place in its utilization update handlers. If fast switching cannot be used, the frequency switch operations are carried out with the help of a work item which only calls __cpufreq_driver_target() (under a mutex) to trigger a frequency update (to a value already computed beforehand in one of the utilization update handlers). Currently, the governor treats all of the RT and DL tasks as "unknown utilization" and sets the frequency to the allowed maximum when updated from the RT or DL sched classes. That heavy-handed approach should be replaced with something more subtle and specifically targeted at RT and DL tasks. The governor shares some tunables management code with the "ondemand" and "conservative" governors and uses some common definitions from cpufreq_governor.h, but apart from that it is stand-alone.

ANDROID: cpufreq: schedutil: add up/down frequency transition rate limits The rate-limit tunable in the schedutil governor applies to transitions to both lower and higher frequencies. On several platforms it is not the ideal tunable though, as it is difficult to get best power/performance figures using the same limit in both directions. It is common on mobile platforms with demanding user interfaces to want to increase frequency rapidly for example but decrease slowly. One of the example can be a case where we have short busy periods followed by similar or longer idle periods. If we keep the rate-limit high enough, we will not go to higher frequencies soon enough. On the other hand, if we keep it too low, we will have too many frequency transitions, as we will always reduce the frequency after the busy period. It would be very useful if we can set low rate-limit while increasing the frequency (so that we can respond to the short busy periods quickly) and high rate-limit while decreasing frequency (so that we don't reduce the frequency immediately after the short busy period and that may avoid frequency transitions before the next busy period). Implement separate up/down transition rate limits. Note that the governor avoids frequency recalculations for a period equal to minimum of up and down rate-limit. A global mutex is also defined to protect updates to min_rate_limit_us via two separate sysfs files. Note that this wouldn't change behavior of the schedutil governor for the platforms which wish to keep same values for both up and down rate limits. This is tested with the rt-app [1] on ARM Exynos, dual A15 processor platform. Testcase: Run a SCHED_OTHER thread on CPU0 which will emulate work-load for X ms of busy period out of the total period of Y ms, i.e. Y - X ms of idle period. The values of X/Y taken were: 20/40, 20/50, 20/70, i.e idle periods of 20, 30 and 50 ms respectively. These were tested against values of up/down rate limits as: 10/10 ms and 10/40 ms. For every test we noticed a performance increase of 5-10% with the schedutil governor, which was very much expected. [Viresh]: Simplified user interface and introduced min_rate_limit_us + mutex, rewrote commit log and included test results.

cpufreq: schedutil: New governor based on scheduler utilization data Add a new cpufreq scaling governor, called "schedutil", that uses scheduler-provided CPU utilization information as input for making its decisions. Doing that is possible after commit 34e2c555f3e1 (cpufreq: Add mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks) that introduced cpufreq_update_util() called by the scheduler on utilization changes (from CFS) and RT/DL task status updates. In particular, CPU frequency scaling decisions may be based on the the utilization data passed to cpufreq_update_util() by CFS. The new governor is relatively simple. The frequency selection formula used by it depends on whether or not the utilization is frequency-invariant. In the frequency-invariant case the new CPU frequency is given by next_freq = 1.25 * max_freq * util / max where util and max are the last two arguments of cpufreq_update_util(). In turn, if util is not frequency-invariant, the maximum frequency in the above formula is replaced with the current frequency of the CPU: next_freq = 1.25 * curr_freq * util / max The coefficient 1.25 corresponds to the frequency tipping point at (util / max) = 0.8. All of the computations are carried out in the utilization update handlers provided by the new governor. One of those handlers is used for cpufreq policies shared between multiple CPUs and the other one is for policies with one CPU only (and therefore it doesn't need to use any extra synchronization means). The governor supports fast frequency switching if that is supported by the cpufreq driver in use and possible for the given policy.

* @util: Current CPU utilization.

* If the utilization is frequency-invariant, choose the new frequency to be
* proportional to it, that is
*
* next_freq = C * max_freq * util / max
*
* Otherwise, approximate the would-be frequency-invariant utilization by
* util_raw * (curr_freq / max_freq) which leads to
*
* next_freq = C * curr_freq * util_raw / max
*
* Take C = 1.25 for the frequency tipping point at (util / max) = 0.8.
*
* The lowest driver-supported frequency which is equal or greater than the raw
* next_freq (as calculated above) is returned, subject to policy min/max and

cpufreq: schedutil: Fix iowait boost reset A more energy efficient update of the IO wait boosting mechanism has been introduced in: commit a5a0809bc58e ("cpufreq: schedutil: Make iowait boost more energy efficient") where the boost value is expected to be: - doubled at each successive wakeup from IO staring from the minimum frequency supported by a CPU - reset when a CPU is not updated for more then one tick by either disabling the IO wait boost or resetting its value to the minimum frequency if this new update requires an IO boost. This approach is supposed to "ignore" boosting for sporadic wakeups from IO, while still getting the frequency boosted to the maximum to benefit long sequence of wakeup from IO operations. However, these assumptions are not always satisfied. For example, when an IO boosted CPU enters idle for more the one tick and then wakes up after an IO wait, since in sugov_set_iowait_boost() we first check the IOWAIT flag, we keep doubling the iowait boost instead of restarting from the minimum frequency value. This misbehavior could happen mainly on non-shared frequency domains, thus defeating the energy efficiency optimization, but it can also happen on shared frequency domain systems. Let fix this issue in sugov_set_iowait_boost() by: - first check the IO wait boost reset conditions to eventually reset the boost value - then applying the correct IO boost value if required by the caller Fixes: a5a0809bc58e (cpufreq: schedutil: Make iowait boost more energy efficient) Reported-by: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Patrick Bellasi <patrick.bellasi@arm.com> Reviewed-by: Joel Fernandes (Google) <joel@joelfernandes.org> Acked-by: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org> Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

UPSTREAM: cpufreq: schedutil: Make iowait boost more energy efficient Currently the iowait_boost feature in schedutil makes the frequency go to max on iowait wakeups. This feature was added to handle a case that Peter described where the throughput of operations involving continuous I/O requests [1] is reduced due to running at a lower frequency, however the lower throughput itself causes utilization to be low and hence causing frequency to be low hence its "stuck". Instead of going to max, its also possible to achieve the same effect by ramping up to max if there are repeated in_iowait wakeups happening. This patch is an attempt to do that. We start from a lower frequency (policy->min) and double the boost for every consecutive iowait update until we reach the maximum iowait boost frequency (iowait_boost_max). I ran a synthetic test (continuous O_DIRECT writes in a loop) on an x86 machine with intel_pstate in passive mode using schedutil. In this test the iowait_boost value ramped from 800MHz to 4GHz in 60ms. The patch achieves the desired improved throughput as the existing behavior.

UPSTREAM: cpufreq: schedutil: Avoid reducing frequency of busy CPUs prematurely The way the schedutil governor uses the PELT metric causes it to underestimate the CPU utilization in some cases. That can be easily demonstrated by running kernel compilation on a Sandy Bridge Intel processor, running turbostat in parallel with it and looking at the values written to the MSR_IA32_PERF_CTL register. Namely, the expected result would be that when all CPUs were 100% busy, all of them would be requested to run in the maximum P-state, but observation shows that this clearly isn't the case. The CPUs run in the maximum P-state for a while and then are requested to run slower and go back to the maximum P-state after a while again. That causes the actual frequency of the processor to visibly oscillate below the sustainable maximum in a jittery fashion which clearly is not desirable. That has been attributed to CPU utilization metric updates on task migration that cause the total utilization value for the CPU to be reduced by the utilization of the migrated task. If that happens, the schedutil governor may see a CPU utilization reduction and will attempt to reduce the CPU frequency accordingly right away. That may be premature, though, for example if the system is generally busy and there are other runnable tasks waiting to be run on that CPU already. This is unlikely to be an issue on systems where cpufreq policies are shared between multiple CPUs, because in those cases the policy utilization is computed as the maximum of the CPU utilization values over the whole policy and if that turns out to be low, reducing the frequency for the policy most likely is a good idea anyway. On systems with one CPU per policy, however, it may affect performance adversely and even lead to increased energy consumption in some cases. On those systems it may be addressed by taking another utilization metric into consideration, like whether or not the CPU whose frequency is about to be reduced has been idle recently, because if that's not the case, the CPU is likely to be busy in the near future and its frequency should not be reduced. To that end, use the counter of idle calls in the timekeeping code. Namely, make the schedutil governor look at that counter for the current CPU every time before its frequency is about to be reduced. If the counter has not changed since the previous iteration of the governor computations for that CPU, the CPU has been busy for all that time and its frequency should not be decreased, so if the new frequency would be lower than the one set previously, the governor will skip the frequency update.

cpufreq: schedutil: New governor based on scheduler utilization data Add a new cpufreq scaling governor, called "schedutil", that uses scheduler-provided CPU utilization information as input for making its decisions. Doing that is possible after commit 34e2c555f3e1 (cpufreq: Add mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks) that introduced cpufreq_update_util() called by the scheduler on utilization changes (from CFS) and RT/DL task status updates. In particular, CPU frequency scaling decisions may be based on the the utilization data passed to cpufreq_update_util() by CFS. The new governor is relatively simple. The frequency selection formula used by it depends on whether or not the utilization is frequency-invariant. In the frequency-invariant case the new CPU frequency is given by next_freq = 1.25 * max_freq * util / max where util and max are the last two arguments of cpufreq_update_util(). In turn, if util is not frequency-invariant, the maximum frequency in the above formula is replaced with the current frequency of the CPU: next_freq = 1.25 * curr_freq * util / max The coefficient 1.25 corresponds to the frequency tipping point at (util / max) = 0.8. All of the computations are carried out in the utilization update handlers provided by the new governor. One of those handlers is used for cpufreq policies shared between multiple CPUs and the other one is for policies with one CPU only (and therefore it doesn't need to use any extra synchronization means). The governor supports fast frequency switching if that is supported by the cpufreq driver in use and possible for the given policy. In the fast switching case, all operations of the governor take place in its utilization update handlers. If fast switching cannot be used, the frequency switch operations are carried out with the help of a work item which only calls __cpufreq_driver_target() (under a mutex) to trigger a frequency update (to a value already computed beforehand in one of the utilization update handlers). Currently, the governor treats all of the RT and DL tasks as "unknown utilization" and sets the frequency to the allowed maximum when updated from the RT or DL sched classes. That heavy-handed approach should be replaced with something more subtle and specifically targeted at RT and DL tasks. The governor shares some tunables management code with the "ondemand" and "conservative" governors and uses some common definitions from cpufreq_governor.h, but apart from that it is stand-alone.

cpufreq: schedutil: New governor based on scheduler utilization data Add a new cpufreq scaling governor, called "schedutil", that uses scheduler-provided CPU utilization information as input for making its decisions. Doing that is possible after commit 34e2c555f3e1 (cpufreq: Add mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks) that introduced cpufreq_update_util() called by the scheduler on utilization changes (from CFS) and RT/DL task status updates. In particular, CPU frequency scaling decisions may be based on the the utilization data passed to cpufreq_update_util() by CFS. The new governor is relatively simple. The frequency selection formula used by it depends on whether or not the utilization is frequency-invariant. In the frequency-invariant case the new CPU frequency is given by next_freq = 1.25 * max_freq * util / max where util and max are the last two arguments of cpufreq_update_util(). In turn, if util is not frequency-invariant, the maximum frequency in the above formula is replaced with the current frequency of the CPU: next_freq = 1.25 * curr_freq * util / max The coefficient 1.25 corresponds to the frequency tipping point at (util / max) = 0.8. All of the computations are carried out in the utilization update handlers provided by the new governor. One of those handlers is used for cpufreq policies shared between multiple CPUs and the other one is for policies with one CPU only (and therefore it doesn't need to use any extra synchronization means). The governor supports fast frequency switching if that is supported by the cpufreq driver in use and possible for the given policy. In the fast switching case, all operations of the governor take place in its utilization update handlers. If fast switching cannot be used, the frequency switch operations are carried out with the help of a work item which only calls __cpufreq_driver_target() (under a mutex) to trigger a frequency update (to a value already computed beforehand in one of the utilization update handlers). Currently, the governor treats all of the RT and DL tasks as "unknown utilization" and sets the frequency to the allowed maximum when updated from the RT or DL sched classes. That heavy-handed approach should be replaced with something more subtle and specifically targeted at RT and DL tasks. The governor shares some tunables management code with the "ondemand" and "conservative" governors and uses some common definitions from cpufreq_governor.h, but apart from that it is stand-alone.

UPSTREAM: cpufreq: schedutil: Make iowait boost more energy efficient Currently the iowait_boost feature in schedutil makes the frequency go to max on iowait wakeups. This feature was added to handle a case that Peter described where the throughput of operations involving continuous I/O requests [1] is reduced due to running at a lower frequency, however the lower throughput itself causes utilization to be low and hence causing frequency to be low hence its "stuck". Instead of going to max, its also possible to achieve the same effect by ramping up to max if there are repeated in_iowait wakeups happening. This patch is an attempt to do that. We start from a lower frequency (policy->min) and double the boost for every consecutive iowait update until we reach the maximum iowait boost frequency (iowait_boost_max). I ran a synthetic test (continuous O_DIRECT writes in a loop) on an x86 machine with intel_pstate in passive mode using schedutil. In this test the iowait_boost value ramped from 800MHz to 4GHz in 60ms. The patch achieves the desired improved throughput as the existing behavior.

In turn, if util is not frequency-invariant, the maximum frequency in the above formula is replaced with the current frequency of the CPU: next_freq = 1.25 * curr_freq * util / max The coefficient 1.25 corresponds to the frequency tipping point at (util / max) = 0.8. All of the computations are carried out in the utilization update handlers provided by the new governor. One of those handlers is used for cpufreq policies shared between multiple CPUs and the other one is for policies with one CPU only (and therefore it doesn't need to use any extra synchronization means). The governor supports fast frequency switching if that is supported by the cpufreq driver in use and possible for the given policy. In the fast switching case, all operations of the governor take place in its utilization update handlers. If fast switching cannot be used, the frequency switch operations are carried out with the help of a work item which only calls __cpufreq_driver_target() (under a mutex) to trigger a frequency update (to a value already computed beforehand in one of the utilization update handlers). Currently, the governor treats all of the RT and DL tasks as "unknown utilization" and sets the frequency to the allowed maximum when updated from the RT or DL sched classes. That heavy-handed approach should be replaced with something more subtle and specifically targeted at RT and DL tasks. The governor shares some tunables management code with the "ondemand" and "conservative" governors and uses some common definitions from cpufreq_governor.h, but apart from that it is stand-alone.

Doing that is possible after commit 34e2c555f3e1 (cpufreq: Add mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks) that introduced cpufreq_update_util() called by the scheduler on utilization changes (from CFS) and RT/DL task status updates. In particular, CPU frequency scaling decisions may be based on the the utilization data passed to cpufreq_update_util() by CFS. The new governor is relatively simple. The frequency selection formula used by it depends on whether or not the utilization is frequency-invariant. In the frequency-invariant case the new CPU frequency is given by next_freq = 1.25 * max_freq * util / max where util and max are the last two arguments of cpufreq_update_util(). In turn, if util is not frequency-invariant, the maximum frequency in the above formula is replaced with the current frequency of the CPU: next_freq = 1.25 * curr_freq * util / max The coefficient 1.25 corresponds to the frequency tipping point at (util / max) = 0.8. All of the computations are carried out in the utilization update handlers provided by the new governor. One of those handlers is used for cpufreq policies shared between multiple CPUs and the other one is for policies with one CPU only (and therefore it doesn't need to use any extra synchronization means). The governor supports fast frequency switching if that is supported by the cpufreq driver in use and possible for the given policy. In the fast switching case, all operations of the governor take place in its utilization update handlers. If fast switching cannot be used, the frequency switch operations are carried out with the help of a work item which only calls __cpufreq_driver_target() (under a mutex) to trigger a frequency update (to a value already computed beforehand in one of the utilization update handlers). Currently, the governor treats all of the RT and DL tasks as "unknown utilization" and sets the frequency to the allowed maximum when updated from the RT or DL sched classes. That heavy-handed approach should be replaced with something more subtle and specifically targeted at RT and DL tasks. The governor shares some tunables management code with the "ondemand" and "conservative" governors and uses some common definitions from cpufreq_governor.h, but apart from that it is stand-alone.

ANDROID: cpufreq: schedutil: add up/down frequency transition rate limits The rate-limit tunable in the schedutil governor applies to transitions to both lower and higher frequencies. On several platforms it is not the ideal tunable though, as it is difficult to get best power/performance figures using the same limit in both directions. It is common on mobile platforms with demanding user interfaces to want to increase frequency rapidly for example but decrease slowly. One of the example can be a case where we have short busy periods followed by similar or longer idle periods. If we keep the rate-limit high enough, we will not go to higher frequencies soon enough. On the other hand, if we keep it too low, we will have too many frequency transitions, as we will always reduce the frequency after the busy period. It would be very useful if we can set low rate-limit while increasing the frequency (so that we can respond to the short busy periods quickly) and high rate-limit while decreasing frequency (so that we don't reduce the frequency immediately after the short busy period and that may avoid frequency transitions before the next busy period). Implement separate up/down transition rate limits. Note that the governor avoids frequency recalculations for a period equal to minimum of up and down rate-limit. A global mutex is also defined to protect updates to min_rate_limit_us via two separate sysfs files. Note that this wouldn't change behavior of the schedutil governor for the platforms which wish to keep same values for both up and down rate limits. This is tested with the rt-app [1] on ARM Exynos, dual A15 processor platform. Testcase: Run a SCHED_OTHER thread on CPU0 which will emulate work-load for X ms of busy period out of the total period of Y ms, i.e. Y - X ms of idle period. The values of X/Y taken were: 20/40, 20/50, 20/70, i.e idle periods of 20, 30 and 50 ms respectively. These were tested against values of up/down rate limits as: 10/10 ms and 10/40 ms. For every test we noticed a performance increase of 5-10% with the schedutil governor, which was very much expected.

On the other hand, if we keep it too low, we will have too many frequency transitions, as we will always reduce the frequency after the busy period. It would be very useful if we can set low rate-limit while increasing the frequency (so that we can respond to the short busy periods quickly) and high rate-limit while decreasing frequency (so that we don't reduce the frequency immediately after the short busy period and that may avoid frequency transitions before the next busy period). Implement separate up/down transition rate limits. Note that the governor avoids frequency recalculations for a period equal to minimum of up and down rate-limit. A global mutex is also defined to protect updates to min_rate_limit_us via two separate sysfs files. Note that this wouldn't change behavior of the schedutil governor for the platforms which wish to keep same values for both up and down rate limits. This is tested with the rt-app [1] on ARM Exynos, dual A15 processor platform. Testcase: Run a SCHED_OTHER thread on CPU0 which will emulate work-load for X ms of busy period out of the total period of Y ms, i.e. Y - X ms of idle period. The values of X/Y taken were: 20/40, 20/50, 20/70, i.e idle periods of 20, 30 and 50 ms respectively. These were tested against values of up/down rate limits as: 10/10 ms and 10/40 ms. For every test we noticed a performance increase of 5-10% with the schedutil governor, which was very much expected.

cpufreq: schedutil: New governor based on scheduler utilization data Add a new cpufreq scaling governor, called "schedutil", that uses scheduler-provided CPU utilization information as input for making its decisions. Doing that is possible after commit 34e2c555f3e1 (cpufreq: Add mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks) that introduced cpufreq_update_util() called by the scheduler on utilization changes (from CFS) and RT/DL task status updates. In particular, CPU frequency scaling decisions may be based on the the utilization data passed to cpufreq_update_util() by CFS. The new governor is relatively simple. The frequency selection formula used by it depends on whether or not the utilization is frequency-invariant. In the frequency-invariant case the new CPU frequency is given by next_freq = 1.25 * max_freq * util / max where util and max are the last two arguments of cpufreq_update_util(). In turn, if util is not frequency-invariant, the maximum frequency in the above formula is replaced with the current frequency of the CPU: next_freq = 1.25 * curr_freq * util / max The coefficient 1.25 corresponds to the frequency tipping point at (util / max) = 0.8. All of the computations are carried out in the utilization update handlers provided by the new governor. One of those handlers is used for cpufreq policies shared between multiple CPUs and the other one is for policies with one CPU only (and therefore it doesn't need to use any extra synchronization means). The governor supports fast frequency switching if that is supported by the cpufreq driver in use and possible for the given policy. In the fast switching case, all operations of the governor take place in its utilization update handlers. If fast switching cannot be used, the frequency switch operations are carried out with the help of a work item which only calls __cpufreq_driver_target() (under a mutex) to trigger a frequency update (to a value already computed beforehand in one of the utilization update handlers). Currently, the governor treats all of the RT and DL tasks as "unknown utilization" and sets the frequency to the allowed maximum when updated from the RT or DL sched classes. That heavy-handed approach should be replaced with something more subtle and specifically targeted at RT and DL tasks. The governor shares some tunables management code with the "ondemand" and "conservative" governors and uses some common definitions from cpufreq_governor.h, but apart from that it is stand-alone.

ANDROID: cpufreq: schedutil: add up/down frequency transition rate limits The rate-limit tunable in the schedutil governor applies to transitions to both lower and higher frequencies.

cpufreq: schedutil: New governor based on scheduler utilization data Add a new cpufreq scaling governor, called "schedutil", that uses scheduler-provided CPU utilization information as input for making its decisions. Doing that is possible after commit 34e2c555f3e1 (cpufreq: Add mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks) that introduced cpufreq_update_util() called by the scheduler on utilization changes (from CFS) and RT/DL task status updates. In particular, CPU frequency scaling decisions may be based on the the utilization data passed to cpufreq_update_util() by CFS. The new governor is relatively simple. The frequency selection formula used by it depends on whether or not the utilization is frequency-invariant. In the frequency-invariant case the new CPU frequency is given by next_freq = 1.25 * max_freq * util / max where util and max are the last two arguments of cpufreq_update_util(). In turn, if util is not frequency-invariant, the maximum frequency in the above formula is replaced with the current frequency of the CPU: next_freq = 1.25 * curr_freq * util / max The coefficient 1.25 corresponds to the frequency tipping point at (util / max) = 0.8. All of the computations are carried out in the utilization update handlers provided by the new governor. One of those handlers is used for cpufreq policies shared between multiple CPUs and the other one is for policies with one CPU only (and therefore it doesn't need to use any extra synchronization means).

ANDROID: cpufreq: schedutil: add up/down frequency transition rate limits The rate-limit tunable in the schedutil governor applies to transitions to both lower and higher frequencies. On several platforms it is not the ideal tunable though, as it is difficult to get best power/performance figures using the same limit in both directions. It is common on mobile platforms with demanding user interfaces to want to increase frequency rapidly for example but decrease slowly. One of the example can be a case where we have short busy periods followed by similar or longer idle periods. If we keep the rate-limit high enough, we will not go to higher frequencies soon enough. On the other hand, if we keep it too low, we will have too many frequency transitions, as we will always reduce the frequency after the busy period. It would be very useful if we can set low rate-limit while increasing the frequency (so that we can respond to the short busy periods quickly) and high rate-limit while decreasing frequency (so that we don't reduce the frequency immediately after the short busy period and that may avoid frequency transitions before the next busy period). Implement separate up/down transition rate limits. Note that the governor avoids frequency recalculations for a period equal to minimum of up and down rate-limit. A global mutex is also defined to protect updates to min_rate_limit_us via two separate sysfs files. Note that this wouldn't change behavior of the schedutil governor for the platforms which wish to keep same values for both up and down rate limits. This is tested with the rt-app [1] on ARM Exynos, dual A15 processor platform. Testcase: Run a SCHED_OTHER thread on CPU0 which will emulate work-load for X ms of busy period out of the total period of Y ms, i.e. Y - X ms of idle period. The values of X/Y taken were: 20/40, 20/50, 20/70, i.e idle periods of 20, 30 and 50 ms respectively. These were tested against values of up/down rate limits as: 10/10 ms and 10/40 ms. For every test we noticed a performance increase of 5-10% with the schedutil governor, which was very much expected. [Viresh]: Simplified user interface and introduced min_rate_limit_us + mutex, rewrote commit log and included test results.

In particular, CPU frequency scaling decisions may be based on the the utilization data passed to cpufreq_update_util() by CFS. The new governor is relatively simple. The frequency selection formula used by it depends on whether or not the utilization is frequency-invariant. In the frequency-invariant case the new CPU frequency is given by next_freq = 1.25 * max_freq * util / max where util and max are the last two arguments of cpufreq_update_util(). In turn, if util is not frequency-invariant, the maximum frequency in the above formula is replaced with the current frequency of the CPU: next_freq = 1.25 * curr_freq * util / max The coefficient 1.25 corresponds to the frequency tipping point at (util / max) = 0.8. All of the computations are carried out in the utilization update handlers provided by the new governor. One of those handlers is used for cpufreq policies shared between multiple CPUs and the other one is for policies with one CPU only (and therefore it doesn't need to use any extra synchronization means). The governor supports fast frequency switching if that is supported by the cpufreq driver in use and possible for the given policy. In the fast switching case, all operations of the governor take place in its utilization update handlers. If fast switching cannot be used, the frequency switch operations are carried out with the help of a work item which only calls __cpufreq_driver_target() (under a mutex) to trigger a frequency update (to a value already computed beforehand in one of the utilization update handlers). Currently, the governor treats all of the RT and DL tasks as "unknown utilization" and sets the frequency to the allowed maximum when updated from the RT or DL sched classes. That heavy-handed approach should be replaced with something more subtle and specifically targeted at RT and DL tasks. The governor shares some tunables management code with the "ondemand" and "conservative" governors and uses some common definitions from cpufreq_governor.h, but apart from that it is stand-alone.

ANDROID: cpufreq: schedutil: add up/down frequency transition rate limits The rate-limit tunable in the schedutil governor applies to transitions to both lower and higher frequencies. On several platforms it is not the ideal tunable though, as it is difficult to get best power/performance figures using the same limit in both directions. It is common on mobile platforms with demanding user interfaces to want to increase frequency rapidly for example but decrease slowly. One of the example can be a case where we have short busy periods followed by similar or longer idle periods. If we keep the rate-limit high enough, we will not go to higher frequencies soon enough. On the other hand, if we keep it too low, we will have too many frequency transitions, as we will always reduce the frequency after the busy period. It would be very useful if we can set low rate-limit while increasing the frequency (so that we can respond to the short busy periods quickly) and high rate-limit while decreasing frequency (so that we don't reduce the frequency immediately after the short busy period and that may avoid frequency transitions before the next busy period). Implement separate up/down transition rate limits. Note that the governor avoids frequency recalculations for a period equal to minimum of up and down rate-limit. A global mutex is also defined to protect updates to min_rate_limit_us via two separate sysfs files. Note that this wouldn't change behavior of the schedutil governor for the platforms which wish to keep same values for both up and down rate limits. This is tested with the rt-app [1] on ARM Exynos, dual A15 processor platform. Testcase: Run a SCHED_OTHER thread on CPU0 which will emulate work-load for X ms of busy period out of the total period of Y ms, i.e. Y - X ms of idle period. The values of X/Y taken were: 20/40, 20/50, 20/70, i.e idle periods of 20, 30 and 50 ms respectively. These were tested against values of up/down rate limits as: 10/10 ms and 10/40 ms. For every test we noticed a performance increase of 5-10% with the schedutil governor, which was very much expected. [Viresh]: Simplified user interface and introduced min_rate_limit_us + mutex, rewrote commit log and included test results.

cpufreq: schedutil: New governor based on scheduler utilization data Add a new cpufreq scaling governor, called "schedutil", that uses scheduler-provided CPU utilization information as input for making its decisions. Doing that is possible after commit 34e2c555f3e1 (cpufreq: Add mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks) that introduced cpufreq_update_util() called by the scheduler on utilization changes (from CFS) and RT/DL task status updates. In particular, CPU frequency scaling decisions may be based on the the utilization data passed to cpufreq_update_util() by CFS. The new governor is relatively simple. The frequency selection formula used by it depends on whether or not the utilization is frequency-invariant. In the frequency-invariant case the new CPU frequency is given by next_freq = 1.25 * max_freq * util / max where util and max are the last two arguments of cpufreq_update_util(). In turn, if util is not frequency-invariant, the maximum frequency in the above formula is replaced with the current frequency of the CPU: next_freq = 1.25 * curr_freq * util / max The coefficient 1.25 corresponds to the frequency tipping point at (util / max) = 0.8. All of the computations are carried out in the utilization update handlers provided by the new governor. One of those handlers is used for cpufreq policies shared between multiple CPUs and the other one is for policies with one CPU only (and therefore it doesn't need to use any extra synchronization means). The governor supports fast frequency switching if that is supported by the cpufreq driver in use and possible for the given policy. In the fast switching case, all operations of the governor take place in its utilization update handlers. If fast switching cannot be used, the frequency switch operations are carried out with the help of a work item which only calls __cpufreq_driver_target() (under a mutex) to trigger a frequency update (to a value already computed beforehand in one of the utilization update handlers). Currently, the governor treats all of the RT and DL tasks as "unknown utilization" and sets the frequency to the allowed maximum when updated from the RT or DL sched classes. That heavy-handed approach should be replaced with something more subtle and specifically targeted at RT and DL tasks. The governor shares some tunables management code with the "ondemand" and "conservative" governors and uses some common definitions from cpufreq_governor.h, but apart from that it is stand-alone.

cpufreq: schedutil: New governor based on scheduler utilization data Add a new cpufreq scaling governor, called "schedutil", that uses scheduler-provided CPU utilization information as input for making its decisions. Doing that is possible after commit 34e2c555f3e1 (cpufreq: Add mechanism for registering utilization update callbacks) that introduced cpufreq_update_util() called by the scheduler on utilization changes (from CFS) and RT/DL task status updates. In particular, CPU frequency scaling decisions may be based on the the utilization data passed to cpufreq_update_util() by CFS. The new governor is relatively simple. The frequency selection formula used by it depends on whether or not the utilization is frequency-invariant. In the frequency-invariant case the new CPU frequency is given by next_freq = 1.25 * max_freq * util / max where util and max are the last two arguments of cpufreq_update_util(). In turn, if util is not frequency-invariant, the maximum frequency in the above formula is replaced with the current frequency of the CPU: next_freq = 1.25 * curr_freq * util / max The coefficient 1.25 corresponds to the frequency tipping point at (util / max) = 0.8. All of the computations are carried out in the utilization update handlers provided by the new governor. One of those handlers is used for cpufreq policies shared between multiple CPUs and the other one is for policies with one CPU only (and therefore it doesn't need to use any extra synchronization means). The governor supports fast frequency switching if that is supported by the cpufreq driver in use and possible for the given policy. In the fast switching case, all operations of the governor take place in its utilization update handlers. If fast switching cannot be used, the frequency switch operations are carried out with the help of a work item which only calls __cpufreq_driver_target() (under a mutex) to trigger a frequency update (to a value already computed beforehand in one of the utilization update handlers). Currently, the governor treats all of the RT and DL tasks as "unknown utilization" and sets the frequency to the allowed maximum when updated from the RT or DL sched classes. That heavy-handed approach should be replaced with something more subtle and specifically targeted at RT and DL tasks. The governor shares some tunables management code with the "ondemand" and "conservative" governors and uses some common definitions from cpufreq_governor.h, but apart from that it is stand-alone.
