[PATCH v3 13/24] thermal: intel: hfi: Store per-CPU IPCC scores

From: Ricardo Neri
Date: Tue Feb 07 2023 - 00:03:07 EST


The scheduler reads the IPCC scores when balancing load. These reads can
be quite frequent. Hardware can also update the HFI table frequently.
Concurrent access may cause a lot of lock contention. It gets worse as the
number of CPUs increases.

Instead, create separate per-CPU IPCC scores that the scheduler can read
without the HFI table lock.

Changes since v2:
* Only create these per-CPU variables when Intel Thread Director is
supported.

Changes since v1:
* Added this patch.
