2014-04-07cpufreq: powernv: cpufreq driver for powernv platformVaidyanathan Srinivasan
Backend driver to dynamically set voltage and frequency on IBM POWER non-virtualized platforms. Power management SPRs are used to set the required PState. This driver works in conjunction with cpufreq governors like 'ondemand' to provide a demand based frequency and voltage setting on IBM POWER non-virtualized platforms. PState table is obtained from OPAL v3 firmware through device tree. powernv_cpufreq back-end driver would parse the relevant device-tree nodes and initialise the cpufreq subsystem on powernv platform. The code was originally written by svaidy@linux.vnet.ibm.com. Over time it was modified to accomodate bug-fixes as well as updates to the the cpu-freq core. Relevant portions of the change logs corresponding to those modifications are noted below: * The policy->cpus needs to be populated in a hotplug-invariant manner instead of using cpu_sibling_mask() which varies with cpu-hotplug. This is because the cpufreq core code copies this content into policy->related_cpus mask which should not vary on cpu-hotplug. [Authored by srivatsa.bhat@linux.vnet.ibm.com] * Create a helper routine that can return the cpu-frequency for the corresponding pstate_id. Also, cache the values of the pstate_max, pstate_min and pstate_nominal and nr_pstates in a static structure so that they can be reused in the future to perform any validations. [Authored by ego@linux.vnet.ibm.com] * Create a driver attribute named cpuinfo_nominal_freq which creates a sysfs read-only file named cpuinfo_nominal_freq. Export the frequency corresponding to the nominal_pstate through this interface. Nominal frequency is the highest non-turbo frequency for the platform. This is generally used for setting governor policies from user space for optimal energy efficiency. [Authored by ego@linux.vnet.ibm.com] * Implement a powernv_cpufreq_get(unsigned int cpu) method which will return the current operating frequency. Export this via the sysfs interface cpuinfo_cur_freq by setting powernv_cpufreq_driver.get to powernv_cpufreq_get().

2013-10-16cpufreq: remove CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_TABLEViresh Kumar
CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_TABLE will be always enabled when cpufreq framework is used, as cpufreq core depends on it. So, we don't need this CONFIG option anymore as it is not configurable. Remove CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_TABLE and update its users. Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar <viresh.kumar@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>
