intel_pstate: Update frequencies of policy->cpus only from ->set_policy()
The intel-pstate driver is using intel_pstate_hwp_set() from two separate paths, i.e. ->set_policy() callback and sysfs update path for the files present in /sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/ directory. While an update to the sysfs path applies to all the CPUs being managed by the driver (which essentially means all the online CPUs), the update via the ->set_policy() callback applies to a smaller group of CPUs managed by the policy for which ->set_policy() is called. And so, intel_pstate_hwp_set() should update frequencies of only the CPUs that are part of policy->cpus mask, while it is called from ->set_policy() callback. In order to do that, add a parameter (cpumask) to intel_pstate_hwp_set() and apply the frequency changes only to the concerned CPUs. For ->set_policy() path, we are only concerned about policy->cpus, and so policy->rwsem lock taken by the core prior to calling ->set_policy() is enough to take care of any races. The larger lock acquired by get_online_cpus() is required only for the updates to sysfs files. Add another routine, intel_pstate_hwp_set_online_cpus(), and call it from the sysfs update paths. This also fixes a lockdep reported recently, where policy->rwsem and get_online_cpus() could have been acquired in any order causing an ABBA deadlock. The sequence of events leading to that was: intel_pstate_init(...) ...cpufreq_online(...) down_write(&policy->rwsem); // Locks policy->rwsem ... cpufreq_init_policy(policy); ...intel_pstate_hwp_set(); get_online_cpus(); // Temporarily locks cpu_hotplug.lock ... up_write(&policy->rwsem); pm_suspend(...) ...disable_nonboot_cpus() _cpu_down() cpu_hotplug_begin(); // Locks cpu_hotplug.lock __cpu_notify(CPU_DOWN_PREPARE, ...); ...cpufreq_offline_prepare(); down_write(&policy->rwsem); // Locks policy->rwsem Reported-and-tested-by: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org> Reviewed-by: Joonas Lahtinen <joonas.lahtinen@linux.intel.com> Acked-by: Srinivas Pandruvada <srinivas.pandruvada@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
