git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki: "This includes some infrastructure changes in the PM core, mostly related to integration between runtime PM and system-wide suspend and hibernation, plus some driver changes depending on them and fixes for issues in that area which have become quite apparent recently. Also included are changes making more x86-based systems use the Low Power Sleep S0 _DSM interface by default, which turned out to be necessary to handle power button wakeups from suspend-to-idle on Surface Pro3. On the cpufreq front we have fixes and cleanups in the core, some new hardware support, driver updates and the removal of some unused code from the CPU cooling thermal driver. Apart from this, the Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework is prepared to be used with power domains in the future and there is a usual bunch of assorted fixes and cleanups. Specifics: - Define a PM driver flag allowing drivers to request that their devices be left in suspend after system-wide transitions to the working state if possible and add support for it to the PCI bus type and the ACPI PM domain (Rafael Wysocki). - Make the PM core carry out optimizations for devices with driver PM flags set in some cases and make a few drivers set those flags (Rafael Wysocki). - Fix and clean up wrapper routines allowing runtime PM device callbacks to be re-used for system-wide PM, change the generic power domains (genpd) framework to stop using those routines incorrectly and fix up a driver depending on that behavior of genpd (Rafael Wysocki, Ulf Hansson, Geert Uytterhoeven). - Fix and clean up the PM core's device wakeup framework and re-factor system-wide PM core code related to device wakeup (Rafael Wysocki, Ulf Hansson, Brian Norris). - Make more x86-based systems use the Low Power Sleep S0 _DSM interface by default (to fix power button wakeup from suspend-to-idle on Surface Pro3) and add a kernel command line switch to tell it to ignore the system sleep blacklist in the ACPI core (Rafael Wysocki). - Fix a race condition related to cpufreq governor module removal and clean up the governor management code in the cpufreq core (Rafael Wysocki). - Drop the unused generic code related to the handling of the static power energy usage model in the CPU cooling thermal driver along with the corresponding documentation (Viresh Kumar). - Add mt2712 support to the Mediatek cpufreq driver (Andrew-sh Cheng). - Add a new operating point to the imx6ul and imx6q cpufreq drivers and switch the latter to using clk_bulk_get() (Anson Huang, Dong Aisheng). - Add support for multiple regulators to the TI cpufreq driver along with a new DT binding related to that and clean up that driver somewhat (Dave Gerlach). - Fix a powernv cpufreq driver regression leading to incorrect CPU frequency reporting, fix that driver to deal with non-continguous P-states correctly and clean it up (Gautham Shenoy, Shilpasri Bhat). - Add support for frequency scaling on Armada 37xx SoCs through the generic DT cpufreq driver (Gregory CLEMENT). - Fix error code paths in the mvebu cpufreq driver (Gregory CLEMENT). - Fix a transition delay setting regression in the longhaul cpufreq driver (Viresh Kumar). - Add Skylake X (server) support to the intel_pstate cpufreq driver and clean up that driver somewhat (Srinivas Pandruvada). - Clean up the cpufreq statistics collection code (Viresh Kumar). - Drop cluster terminology and dependency on physical_package_id from the PSCI driver and drop dependency on arm_big_little from the SCPI cpufreq driver (Sudeep Holla). - Add support for system-wide suspend and resume to the RAPL power capping driver and drop a redundant semicolon from it (Zhen Han, Luis de Bethencourt). - Make SPI domain validation (in the SCSI SPI transport driver) and system-wide suspend mutually exclusive as they rely on the same underlying mechanism and cannot be carried out at the same time (Bart Van Assche). - Fix the computation of the amount of memory to preallocate in the hibernation core and clean up one function in there (Rainer Fiebig, Kyungsik Lee). - Prepare the Operating Performance Points (OPP) framework for being used with power domains and clean up one function in it (Viresh Kumar, Wei Yongjun). - Clean up the generic sysfs interface for device PM (Andy Shevchenko). - Fix several minor issues in power management frameworks and clean them up a bit (Arvind Yadav, Bjorn Andersson, Geert Uytterhoeven, Gustavo Silva, Julia Lawall, Luis de Bethencourt, Paul Gortmaker, Sergey Senozhatsky, gaurav jindal). - Make it easier to disable PM via Kconfig (Mark Brown). - Clean up the cpupower and intel_pstate_tracer utilities (Doug Smythies, Laura Abbott)" * tag 'pm-4.16-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (89 commits) PCI / PM: Remove spurious semicolon cpufreq: scpi: remove arm_big_little dependency drivers: psci: remove cluster terminology and dependency on physical_package_id powercap: intel_rapl: Fix trailing semicolon dmaengine: rcar-dmac: Make DMAC reinit during system resume explicit PM / runtime: Allow no callbacks in pm_runtime_force_suspend|resume() PM / hibernate: Drop unused parameter of enough_swap PM / runtime: Check ignore_children in pm_runtime_need_not_resume() PM / runtime: Rework pm_runtime_force_suspend/resume() PM / genpd: Stop/start devices without pm_runtime_force_suspend/resume() cpufreq: powernv: Dont assume distinct pstate values for nominal and pmin cpufreq: intel_pstate: Add Skylake servers support cpufreq: intel_pstate: Replace bxt_funcs with core_funcs platform/x86: surfacepro3: Support for wakeup from suspend-to-idle ACPI / PM: Use Low Power S0 Idle on more systems PM / wakeup: Print warn if device gets enabled as wakeup source during sleep PM / domains: Don't skip driver's ->suspend|resume_noirq() callbacks PM / core: Propagate wakeup_path status flag in __device_suspend_late() PM / core: Re-structure code for clearing the direct_complete flag powercap: add suspend and resume mechanism for SOC power limit ...

2018-01-03PM / core: Direct DPM_FLAG_LEAVE_SUSPENDED handlingRafael J. Wysocki
Make the PM core handle DPM_FLAG_LEAVE_SUSPENDED directly for devices whose "noirq", "late" and "early" driver callbacks are invoked directly by it. Namely, make it skip all of the system-wide resume callbacks for such devices with DPM_FLAG_LEAVE_SUSPENDED set if they are in runtime suspend during the "noirq" phase of system-wide suspend (or analogous) transitions or the system transition under way is a proper suspend (rather than anything related to hibernation) and the device's wakeup settings are compatible with runtime PM (that is, the device cannot generate wakeup signals at all or it is allowed to wake up the system from sleep). Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
2018-01-03PM / core: Direct DPM_FLAG_SMART_SUSPEND optimizationRafael J. Wysocki
Make the PM core avoid invoking the "late" and "noirq" system-wide suspend (or analogous) callbacks provided by device drivers directly for devices with DPM_FLAG_SMART_SUSPEND set that are in runtime suspend during the "late" and "noirq" phases of system-wide suspend (or analogous) transitions. That is only done for devices without any middle-layer "late" and "noirq" suspend callbacks (to avoid confusing the middle layer if there is one). The underlying observation is that runtime PM is disabled for devices during the "late" and "noirq" system-wide suspend phases, so if they remain in runtime suspend from the "late" phase forward, it doesn't make sense to invoke the "late" and "noirq" callbacks provided by the drivers for them (arguably, the device is already suspended and in the right state). Thus, if the remaining driver suspend callbacks are to be invoked directly by the core, they can be skipped. This change really makes it possible for, say, platform device drivers to re-use runtime PM suspend and resume callbacks by pointing ->suspend_late and ->resume_early, respectively (and possibly the analogous hibernation-related callback pointers too), to them without adding any extra "is the device already suspended?" type of checks to the callback routines, as long as they will be invoked directly by the core.

2017-11-27PM / core: Add LEAVE_SUSPENDED driver flagRafael J. Wysocki
Define and document a new driver flag, DPM_FLAG_LEAVE_SUSPENDED, to instruct the PM core and middle-layer (bus type, PM domain, etc.) code that it is desirable to leave the device in runtime suspend after system-wide transitions to the working state (for example, the device may be slow to resume and it may be better to avoid resuming it right away). Generally, the middle-layer code involved in the handling of the device is expected to indicate to the PM core whether or not the device may be left in suspend with the help of the device's power.may_skip_resume status bit. That has to happen in the "noirq" phase of the preceding system suspend (or analogous) transition. The middle layer is then responsible for handling the device as appropriate in its "noirq" resume callback which is executed regardless of whether or not the device may be left suspended, but the other resume callbacks (except for ->complete) will be skipped automatically by the core if the device really can be left in suspend. The additional power.must_resume status bit introduced for the implementation of this mechanisn is used internally by the PM core to track the requirement to resume the device (which may depend on its children etc).

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/linusw/linux-pinctrl Pull pin control updates from Linus Walleij: "This is the bulk of pin control changes for the v4.15 kernel cycle: Core: - The pin control Kconfig entry PINCTRL is now turned into a menuconfig option. This obviously has the implication of making the subsystem menu visible in menuconfig. This is happening because of two things: (a) Intel have started to deploy and depend on pin controllers in a way that is affecting users directly. This happens on the highly integrated laptop chipsets named after geographical places: baytrail, broxton, cannonlake, cedarfork, cherryview, denverton, geminilake, lewisburg, merrifield, sunrisepoint... It started a while back and now it is ever more evident that this is crucial infrastructure for x86 laptops and not an embedded obscurity anymore. Users need to be aware. (b) Pin control expanders on I2C and SPI that are arch-agnostic. Currently Semtech SX150X and Microchip MCP28x08 but more are expected. Users will have to be able to configure these in directly for their set-up. - Just go and select GPIOLIB now that we made sure that GPIOLIB is a very vanilla subsystem.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki: "There are no real big ticket items here this time. The most noticeable change is probably the relocation of the OPP (Operating Performance Points) framework to its own directory under drivers/ as it has grown big enough for that. Also Viresh is now going to maintain it and send pull requests for it to me, so you will see this change in the git history going forward (but still not right now). Another noticeable set of changes is the modifications of the PM core, the PCI subsystem and the ACPI PM domain to allow of more integration between system-wide suspend/resume and runtime PM. For now it's just a way to avoid resuming devices from runtime suspend unnecessarily during system suspend (if the driver sets a flag to indicate its readiness for that) and in the works is an analogous mechanism to allow devices to stay suspended after system resume. In addition to that, we have some changes related to supporting frequency-invariant CPU utilization metrics in the scheduler and in the schedutil cpufreq governor on ARM and changes to add support for device performance states to the generic power domains (genpd) framework. The rest is mostly fixes and cleanups of various sorts. Specifics: - Relocate the OPP (Operating Performance Points) framework to its own directory under drivers/ and add support for power domain performance states to it (Viresh Kumar). - Modify the PM core, the PCI bus type and the ACPI PM domain to support power management driver flags allowing device drivers to specify their capabilities and preferences regarding the handling of devices with enabled runtime PM during system suspend/resume and clean up that code somewhat (Rafael Wysocki, Ulf Hansson). - Add frequency-invariant accounting support to the task scheduler on ARM and ARM64 (Dietmar Eggemann). - Fix PM QoS device resume latency framework to prevent "no restriction" requests from overriding requests with specific requirements and drop the confusing PM_QOS_FLAG_REMOTE_WAKEUP device PM QoS flag (Rafael Wysocki). - Drop legacy class suspend/resume operations from the PM core and drop legacy bus type suspend and resume callbacks from ARM/locomo (Rafael Wysocki). - Add min/max frequency support to devfreq and clean it up somewhat (Chanwoo Choi). - Rework wakeup support in the generic power domains (genpd) framework and update some of its users accordingly (Geert Uytterhoeven). - Convert timers in the PM core to use timer_setup() (Kees Cook). - Add support for exposing the SLP_S0 (Low Power S0 Idle) residency counter based on the LPIT ACPI table on Intel platforms (Srinivas Pandruvada). - Add per-CPU PM QoS resume latency support to the ladder cpuidle governor (Ramesh Thomas). - Fix a deadlock between the wakeup notify handler and the notifier removal in the ACPI core (Ville Syrjälä). - Fix a cpufreq schedutil governor issue causing it to use stale cached frequency values sometimes (Viresh Kumar). - Fix an issue in the system suspend core support code causing wakeup events detection to fail in some cases (Rajat Jain). - Fix the generic power domains (genpd) framework to prevent the PM core from using the direct-complete optimization with it as that is guaranteed to fail (Ulf Hansson). - Fix a minor issue in the cpuidle core and clean it up a bit (Gaurav Jindal, Nicholas Piggin). - Fix and clean up the intel_idle and ARM cpuidle drivers (Jason Baron, Len Brown, Leo Yan). - Fix a couple of minor issues in the OPP framework and clean it up (Arvind Yadav, Fabio Estevam, Sudeep Holla, Tobias Jordan). - Fix and clean up some cpufreq drivers and fix a minor issue in the cpufreq statistics code (Arvind Yadav, Bhumika Goyal, Fabio Estevam, Gautham Shenoy, Gustavo Silva, Marek Szyprowski, Masahiro Yamada, Robert Jarzmik, Zumeng Chen). - Fix minor issues in the system suspend and hibernation core, in power management documentation and in the AVS (Adaptive Voltage Scaling) framework (Helge Deller, Himanshu Jha, Joe Perches, Rafael Wysocki). - Fix some issues in the cpupower utility and document that Shuah Khan is going to maintain it going forward (Prarit Bhargava, Shuah Khan)" * tag 'pm-4.15-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm: (88 commits) tools/power/cpupower: add libcpupower.so.0.0.1 to .gitignore tools/power/cpupower: Add 64 bit library detection intel_idle: Graceful probe failure when MWAIT is disabled cpufreq: schedutil: Reset cached_raw_freq when not in sync with next_freq freezer: Fix typo in freezable_schedule_timeout() comment PM / s2idle: Clear the events_check_enabled flag cpufreq: stats: Handle the case when trans_table goes beyond PAGE_SIZE cpufreq: arm_big_little: make cpufreq_arm_bL_ops structures const cpufreq: arm_big_little: make function arguments and structure pointer const cpuidle: Avoid assignment in if () argument cpuidle: Clean up cpuidle_enable_device() error handling a bit ACPI / PM: Fix acpi_pm_notifier_lock vs flush_workqueue() deadlock PM / Domains: Fix genpd to deal with drivers returning 1 from ->prepare() cpuidle: ladder: Add per CPU PM QoS resume latency support PM / QoS: Fix device resume latency framework PM / domains: Rework governor code to be more consistent PM / Domains: Remove gpd_dev_ops.active_wakeup() callback soc: rockchip: power-domain: Use GENPD_FLAG_ACTIVE_WAKEUP soc: mediatek: Use GENPD_FLAG_ACTIVE_WAKEUP ARM: shmobile: pm-rmobile: Use GENPD_FLAG_ACTIVE_WAKEUP ...

2017-11-06PM / core: Add SMART_SUSPEND driver flagRafael J. Wysocki
Define and document a SMART_SUSPEND flag to instruct bus types and PM domains that the system suspend callbacks provided by the driver can cope with runtime-suspended devices, so from the driver's perspective it should be safe to leave devices in runtime suspend during system suspend. Setting that flag may also cause middle-layer code (bus types, PM domains etc.) to skip invocations of the ->suspend_late and ->suspend_noirq callbacks provided by the driver if the device is in runtime suspend at the beginning of the "late" phase of the system-wide suspend transition, in which case the driver's system-wide resume callbacks may be invoked back-to-back with its ->runtime_suspend callback, so the driver has to be able to cope with that too.

2017-11-06PM / core: Add NEVER_SKIP and SMART_PREPARE driver flagsRafael J. Wysocki
The motivation for this change is to provide a way to work around a problem with the direct-complete mechanism used for avoiding system suspend/resume handling for devices in runtime suspend. The problem is that some middle layer code (the PCI bus type and the ACPI PM domain in particular) returns positive values from its system suspend ->prepare callbacks regardless of whether the driver's ->prepare returns a positive value or 0, which effectively prevents drivers from being able to control the direct-complete feature. Some drivers need that control, however, and the PCI bus type has grown its own flag to deal with this issue, but since it is not limited to PCI, it is better to address it by adding driver flags at the core level. To that end, add a driver_flags field to struct dev_pm_info for flags that can be set by device drivers at the probe time to inform the PM core and/or bus types, PM domains and so on on the capabilities and/or preferences of device drivers. Also add two static inline helpers for setting that field and testing it against a given set of flags and make the driver core clear it automatically on driver remove and probe failures. Define and document two PM driver flags related to the direct- complete feature: NEVER_SKIP and SMART_PREPARE that can be used, respectively, to indicate to the PM core that the direct-complete mechanism should never be used for the device and to inform the middle layer code (bus types, PM domains etc) that it can only request the PM core to use the direct-complete mechanism for the device (by returning a positive value from its ->prepare callback) if it also has been requested by the driver. While at it, make the core check pm_runtime_suspended() when setting power.direct_complete so that it doesn't need to be checked by ->prepare callbacks. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2017-09-23PM: Document rules on using pm_runtime_resume() in system suspend callbacksRafael J. Wysocki
It quite often is necessary to resume devices from runtime suspend during system suspend for various reasons (for example, if their wakeup settings need to be changed), but that requires middle-layer or subsystem code to follow additional rules which currently are not clearly documented. Namely, if a driver calls pm_runtime_resume() for the device from its ->suspend (or equivalent) system sleep callback, that may not work if the middle layer above it has updated the state of the device from its ->prepare or ->suspend callbacks already in an incompatible way. For this reason, all middle layers must follow the rule that, until the ->suspend callback provided by the device's driver is invoked, the only way in which the device's state can be updated is by calling pm_runtime_resume() for it, if necessary. Fortunately enough, all middle layers in the code base today follow this rule, but it is not explicitly stated anywhere, so do that. Note that calling pm_runtime_resume() from the ->suspend callback of a driver will cause the ->runtime_resume callback provided by the middle layer to be invoked, but the rule above guarantees that this callback will nest properly with the middle layer's ->suspend callback and it will play well with the ->prepare one invoked before.
