In certain situations it may be useful to prevent some idle states
from being used by default while allowing user space to enable them
later on.
For this purpose, introduce a new state flag, CPUIDLE_FLAG_OFF, to
mark idle states that should be disabled by default, make the core
set CPUIDLE_STATE_DISABLED_BY_USER for those states at the
initialization time and add a new state attribute in sysfs,
"default_status", to inform user space of the initial status of
the given idle state ("disabled" if CPUIDLE_FLAG_OFF is set for it,
"enabled" otherwise).

It turns out that cpuidle_driver_state_disabled() can be called
before registering the cpufreq driver on some platforms, which
was not expected when it was introduced and which leads to a NULL
pointer dereference when trying to walk the CPUs associated with
the given cpuidle driver.
Fix the problem by making cpuidle_driver_state_disabled() check if
the driver's mask of CPUs associated with it is present and to set
CPUIDLE_FLAG_UNUSABLE for the given idle state in the driver's states
list if that is not the case to cause __cpuidle_register_device() to
set CPUIDLE_STATE_DISABLED_BY_DRIVER for that state for all cpuidle
devices registered by it later.

available sleep state to the last available sleep state (which should
be longer).

After recent cpuidle updates the "disabled" field in struct
cpuidle_state is only used by two drivers (intel_idle and shmobile
cpuidle) for marking unusable idle states, but that may as well be
achieved with the help of a state flag, so define an "unusable" idle
state flag, CPUIDLE_FLAG_UNUSABLE, make the drivers in question use
it instead of the "disabled" field and make the core set
CPUIDLE_STATE_DISABLED_BY_DRIVER for the idle states with that flag
set.
After the above changes, the "disabled" field in struct cpuidle_state
is not used any more, so drop it.
No intentional functional impact.

In some cases it may be useful to specify an exit latency limit for
the idle state to be used during CPU idle time injection.
Instead of duplicating the information in struct cpuidle_device
or propagating the latency limit in the call stack, replace the
use_deepest_state field with forced_latency_limit_ns to represent
that limit, so that the deepest idle state with exit latency within
that limit is forced (i.e. no governors) when it is set.
A zero exit latency limit for forced idle means to use governors in
the usual way (analogous to use_deepest_state equal to "false" before
this change).
Additionally, add play_idle_precise() taking two arguments, the
duration of forced idle and the idle state exit latency limit, both
in nanoseconds, and redefine play_idle() as a wrapper around that
new function.
This change is preparatory, no functional impact is expected.

Commit 99e98d3fb100 ("cpuidle: Consolidate disabled state checks")
overlooked the fact that the imx6q and tegra20 cpuidle drivers use
the "disabled" field in struct cpuidle_state for quirks which trigger
after the initialization of cpuidle, so reading the initial value of
that field is not sufficient for those drivers.
In order to allow them to implement the quirks without using the
"disabled" field in struct cpuidle_state, introduce a new helper
function and modify them to use it.

If the current state with the maximum "early hits" metric in
teo_select() is also the one "matching" the expected idle duration,
it will be used as the candidate one for selection even if its
"misses" metric is greater than its "hits" metric, which is not
correct.
In that case, the candidate state should be shallower than the
current one and its "early hits" metric should be the maximum
among the idle states shallower than the current one.
To make that happen, modify teo_select() to save the index of
the state whose "early hits" metric is the maximum for the
range of states below the current one and go back to that state
if it turns out that the current one should be rejected.

Currently, the cpuidle subsystem uses microseconds as the unit of
time which (among other things) causes the idle loop to incur some
integer division overhead for no clear benefit.
In order to allow cpuidle to measure time in nanoseconds, add two
new fields, exit_latency_ns and target_residency_ns, to represent the
exit latency and target residency of an idle state in nanoseconds,
respectively, to struct cpuidle_state and initialize them with the
help of the corresponding values in microseconds provided by drivers.
Additionally, change cpuidle_governor_latency_req() to return the
idle state exit latency constraint in nanoseconds.
Also meeasure idle state residency (last_residency_ns in struct
cpuidle_device and time_ns in struct cpuidle_driver) in nanoseconds
and update the cpuidle core and governors accordingly.
However, the menu governor still computes typical intervals in
microseconds to avoid integer overflows.

There are two reasons why CPU idle states may be disabled: either
because the driver has disabled them or because they have been
disabled by user space via sysfs.
In the former case, the state's "disabled" flag is set once during
the initialization of the driver and it is never cleared later (it
is read-only effectively). In the latter case, the "disable" field
of the given state's cpuidle_state_usage struct is set and it may be
changed via sysfs. Thus checking whether or not an idle state has
been disabled involves reading these two flags every time.
In order to avoid the additional check of the state's "disabled" flag
(which is effectively read-only anyway), use the value of it at the
init time to set a (new) flag in the "disable" field of that state's
cpuidle_state_usage structure and use the sysfs interface to
manipulate another (new) flag in it. This way the state is disabled
whenever the "disable" field of its cpuidle_state_usage structure is
nonzero, whatever the reason, and it is the only place to look into
to check whether or not the state has been disabled.

Currenly haltpoll isn't aware of the 'idle=' override, the priority is
'idle=poll' > haltpoll > 'idle=halt'. When 'idle=poll' is used, cpuidle
driver is bypassed but current_driver in sys still shows 'haltpoll'.
When 'idle=halt' is used, haltpoll takes precedence and makes
'idle=halt' have no effect.

The TEO governor uses idle duration "bins" defined in accordance with
the CPU idle states table provided by the driver, so that each "bin"
covers the idle duration range between the target residency of the
idle state corresponding to it and the target residency of the closest
deeper idle state. The governor collects statistics for each bin
regardless of whether or not the idle state corresponding to it is
currently enabled.
In particular, the "early hits" metric measures the likelihood of a
situation in which the idle duration measured after wakeup falls into
to given bin, but the time till the next timer (sleep length) falls
into a bin corresponding to one of the deeper idle states. It is
used when the "hits" and "misses" metrics indicate that the state
"matching" the sleep length should not be selected, so that the state
with the maximum "early hits" value is selected instead of it.
If the idle state corresponding to the given bin is disabled, it
cannot be selected and if it turns out to be the one that should be
selected, a shallower idle state needs to be used instead of it.
Nevertheless, the metrics collected for the bin corresponding to it
are still valid and need to be taken into account as though that
state had not been disabled.
As far as the "early hits" metric is concerned, teo_select() tries to
take disabled states into account, but the state index corresponding
to the maximum "early hits" value computed by it may be incorrect.
Namely, it always uses the index of the previous maximum "early hits"
state then, but there may be enabled idle states closer to the
disabled one in question. In particular, if the current candidate
state (whose index is the idx value) is closer to the disabled one
and the "early hits" value of the disabled state is greater than the
current maximum, the index of the current candidate state (idx)
should replace the "maximum early hits state" index.
Modify the code to handle that case correctly.

The downside of guest side polling is that polling is performed even
with other runnable tasks in the host. However, even if poll in kvm
can aware whether or not other runnable tasks in the same pCPU, it
can still incur extra overhead in over-subscribe scenario. Now we can
just enable guest polling when dedicated pCPUs are available.

cpuidle-haltpoll can be built as a module to allow optional late load.
Given we are setting @owner to THIS_MODULE, cpuidle will attempt to grab a
module reference every time a cpuidle_device is registered -- so
essentially all online cpus get a reference.
This prevents for the module to be unloaded later, which makes the
module_exit callback entirely unused. Thus remove the @owner and allow
module to be unloaded.

When a user loads cpuidle-haltpoll on a non KVM guest the module will
successfully load, even though idle driver registration didn't take
place.
We should instead return -ENODEV signaling the user that the driver can't
be loaded, like other error paths in haltpoll_init(). An example of such
error paths is when we return -EBUSY when attempting to register an idle
driver when it had one already (e.g. intel_idle loads at boot and then we
attempt to insert module cpuidle-haltpoll).

Right now, guest current governors have the following ratings:
* ladder -> 10
* teo -> 19
* menu -> 20
* haltpoll -> 21
* ladder + nohz=off -> 25
haltpoll governor got introduced and it is now the default governor given
its highest rating -- with ladder+nohz being the exception -- regardless of
idle driver in the guest. An example of an undesirable case is x86 KVM
guests with MWAIT which have intel_idle registered first, and consequently
will have haltpoll be used as governor which would get limited to a poll
state and state 1 and the other states wouldn't get used.
To keep the previous defaults we decrease rating of governor to 9 (below
current lowest rating) and thus rely on @governor switch on
cpuidle_register_driver() to tie in haltpoll idle driver and governor
together.

The recently introduced haltpoll driver is largely only useful with
haltpoll governor. To allow drivers to associate with a particular idle
behaviour, add a @governor property to 'struct cpuidle_driver' and thus
allow a cpuidle driver to switch to a *preferred* governor on idle driver
registration. We save the previous governor, and when an idle driver is
unregistered we switch back to that.
The @governor can be overridden by cpuidle.governor= boot param or
alternatively be ignored if the governor doesn't exist.

When cpus != maxcpus cpuidle-haltpoll will fail to register all vcpus
past the online ones and thus fail to register the idle driver.
This is because cpuidle_add_sysfs() will return with -ENODEV as a
consequence from get_cpu_device() return no device for a non-existing
CPU.
Instead switch to cpuidle_register_driver() and manually register each
of the present cpus through cpuhp_setup_state() callbacks and future
ones that get onlined or offlined. This mimmics similar logic that
intel_idle does.

Notice that setting measured_us to UINT_MAX in teo_update() earlier
doesn't change the behavior of the following code, so do that and
eliminate a redundant check used for setting measured_us to UINT_MAX.
This change is not expected to alter functionality.

Current PSCI code handles idle state entry through the
psci_cpu_suspend_enter() API, that takes an idle state index as a
parameter and convert the index into a previously initialized
power_state parameter before calling the PSCI.CPU_SUSPEND() with it.
This is unwieldly, since it forces the PSCI firmware layer to keep track
of power_state parameter for every idle state so that the
index->power_state conversion can be made in the PSCI firmware layer
instead of the CPUidle driver implementations.
Move the power_state handling out of drivers/firmware/psci
into the respective ACPI/DT PSCI CPUidle backends and convert
the psci_cpu_suspend_enter() API to get the power_state
parameter as input, which makes it closer to its firmware
interface PSCI.CPU_SUSPEND() API.
A notable side effect is that the PSCI ACPI/DT CPUidle backends
now can directly handle (and if needed update) power_state
parameters before handing them over to the PSCI firmware
interface to trigger PSCI.CPU_SUSPEND() calls.

Allow selection of the PSCI CPUidle in the kernel by updating
the respective Kconfig entry.
Remove PSCI callbacks from ARM/ARM64 generic CPU ops
to prevent the PSCI idle driver from clashing with the generic
ARM CPUidle driver initialization, that relies on CPU ops
to initialize and enter idle states.

PSCI firmware is the standard power management control for
all ARM64 based platforms and it is also deployed on some
ARM 32 bit platforms to date.
Idle state entry in PSCI is currently achieved by calling
arm_cpuidle_init() and arm_cpuidle_suspend() in a generic
idle driver, which in turn relies on ARM/ARM64 CPUidle back-end
to relay the call into PSCI firmware if PSCI is the boot method.
Given that PSCI is the standard idle entry method on ARM64 systems
(which means that no other CPUidle driver are expected on ARM64
platforms - so PSCI is already a generic idle driver), in order to
simplify idle entry and code maintenance, it makes sense to have a PSCI
specific idle driver so that idle code that it is currently living in
drivers/firmware directory can be hoisted out of it and moved
where it belongs, into a full-fledged PSCI driver, leaving PSCI code
in drivers/firmware as a pure firmware interface, as it should be.
Implement a PSCI CPUidle driver. By default it is a silent Kconfig entry
which is left unselected, since it selection would clash with the
generic ARM CPUidle driver that provides a PSCI based idle driver
through the arm/arm64 arches back-ends CPU operations.

CPUidle back-end operations are not implemented in some platforms
but this should not be considered an error serious enough to be
logged. Check the arm_cpuidle_init() return value to detect whether
the failure must be reported or not in the kernel log and do
not log it if the platform does not support CPUidle operations.

The TEO goveror prevents the scheduler tick from being stopped (unless
stopped already) if there is a PM QoS latency constraint for the given
CPU and the target residency of the deepest idle state matching that
constraint is below the tick boundary.
However, that is problematic if CPUs with PM QoS latency constraints
are idle for long times, because it effectively causes the tick to
run on them all the time which is wasteful. [It is also confusing
and questionable if they are full dynticks CPUs.]
To address that issue, modify the TEO governor to carry out the
entire search for the most suitable idle state (from the target
residency perspective) even if a latency constraint is present,
to allow it to determine the expected idle duration in all cases.
Also, when using the last several measured idle duration values
to refine the idle state selection, make it compare those values
with the current expected idle duration value (instead of
comparing them with the target residency of the idle state
selected so far) which should prevent the tick from being
retained when it makes sense to stop it sometimes (especially
in the presence of PM QoS latency constraints).

After commit 554c8aa8ecad ("sched: idle: Select idle state before
stopping the tick") the menu governor prevents the scheduler tick from
being stopped (unless stopped already) if there is a PM QoS latency
constraint for the given CPU and the target residency of the deepest
idle state matching that constraint is below the tick boundary.
However, that is problematic if CPUs with PM QoS latency constraints
are idle for long times, because it effectively causes the tick to
run on them all the time which is wasteful. [It is also confusing
and questionable if they are full dynticks CPUs.]
To address that issue, make the menu governor allow the tick to be
stopped only if the idle duration predicted by it is beyond the tick
boundary, except when the shallowest idle state is selected upfront
and it is not a "polling" one.

The cpuidle_haltpoll governor, in conjunction with the haltpoll cpuidle
driver, allows guest vcpus to poll for a specified amount of time before
halting.
This provides the following benefits to host side polling:
1) The POLL flag is set while polling is performed, which allows
a remote vCPU to avoid sending an IPI (and the associated
cost of handling the IPI) when performing a wakeup.
2) The VM-exit cost can be avoided.
The downside of guest side polling is that polling is performed
even with other runnable tasks in the host.
Results comparing halt_poll_ns and server/client application
where a small packet is ping-ponged:
host --> 31.33
halt_poll_ns=300000 / no guest busy spin --> 33.40 (93.8%)
halt_poll_ns=0 / guest_halt_poll_ns=300000 --> 32.73 (95.7%)
For the SAP HANA benchmarks (where idle_spin is a parameter
of the previous version of the patch, results should be the
same):
hpns == halt_poll_ns
idle_spin=0/ idle_spin=800/ idle_spin=0/
hpns=200000 hpns=0 hpns=800000
