[PATCH V4 2/2] cpufreq: cppc: Add support for frequency invariance

From: Viresh Kumar
Date: Mon Feb 22 2021 - 06:20:00 EST


The Frequency Invariance Engine (FIE) is providing a frequency scaling
correction factor that helps achieve more accurate load-tracking.

Normally, this scaling factor can be obtained directly with the help of
the cpufreq drivers as they know the exact frequency the hardware is
running at. But that isn't the case for CPPC cpufreq driver.

Another way of obtaining that is using the arch specific counter
support, which is already present in kernel, but that hardware is
optional for platforms.

This patch thus obtains this scaling factor using the existing logic
present in the cppc driver. Note that the arch specific counters have
higher priority than CPPC counters if available, though the CPPC driver
doesn't need to have any special handling for that.

To allow platforms to disable frequency invariance support if they want,
this is all done under CONFIG_ACPI_CPPC_CPUFREQ_FIE, which is enabled by
default.

This also exports sched_setattr_nocheck() as the CPPC driver can be
built as a module.
