ACPI / processor: Request native thermal interrupt handling via _OSC

2016-05-11T09:21:26+00:00

commit a21211672c9a1d730a39aa65d4a5b3414700adfb upstream. There are several reports of freeze on enabling HWP (Hardware PStates) feature on Skylake-based systems by the Intel P-states driver. The root cause is identified as the HWP interrupts causing BIOS code to freeze. HWP interrupts use the thermal LVT which can be handled by Linux natively, but on the affected Skylake-based systems SMM will respond to it by default. This is a problem for several reasons: - On the affected systems the SMM thermal LVT handler is broken (it will crash when invoked) and a BIOS update is necessary to fix it. - With thermal interrupt handled in SMM we lose all of the reporting features of the arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mcheck/therm_throt driver. - Some thermal drivers like x86-package-temp depend on the thermal threshold interrupts signaled via the thermal LVT. - The HWP interrupts are useful for debugging and tuning performance (if the kernel can handle them). The native handling of thermal interrupts needs to be enabled because of that. This requires some way to tell SMM that the OS can handle thermal interrupts. That can be done by using _OSC/_PDC in processor scope very early during ACPI initialization. The meaning of _OSC/_PDC bit 12 in processor scope is whether or not the OS supports native handling of interrupts for Collaborative Processor Performance Control (CPPC) notifications. Since on HWP-capable systems CPPC is a firmware interface to HWP, setting this bit effectively tells the firmware that the OS will handle thermal interrupts natively going forward. For details on _OSC/_PDC refer to: http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/standards/processor-vendor-specific-acpi-specification.html To implement the _OSC/_PDC handshake as described, introduce a new function, acpi_early_processor_osc(), that walks the ACPI namespace looking for ACPI processor objects and invokes _OSC for them with bit 12 in the capabilities buffer set and terminates the namespace walk on the first success. Also modify intel_thermal_interrupt() to clear HWP status bits in the HWP_STATUS MSR to acknowledge HWP interrupts (which prevents them from firing continuously).

debugfs: Pass bool pointer to debugfs_create_bool()

2015-10-04T10:36:07+00:00

Its a bit odd that debugfs_create_bool() takes 'u32 *' as an argument, when all it needs is a boolean pointer. It would be better to update this API to make it accept 'bool *' instead, as that will make it more consistent and often more convenient. Over that bool takes just a byte. That required updates to all user sites as well, in the same commit updating the API. regmap core was also using debugfs_{read|write}_file_bool(), directly and variable types were updated for that to be bool as well.

ACPI / EC: Fix broken 64bit big-endian users of 'global_lock'

2015-10-04T10:36:07+00:00

global_lock is defined as an unsigned long and accessing only its lower 32 bits from sysfs is incorrect, as we need to consider other 32 bits for big endian 64-bit systems. There are no such platforms yet, but the code needs to be robust for such a case. Fix that by changing type of 'global_lock' to u32. Signed-off-by: Viresh Kumar Acked-by: Rafael J.

ACPI: fix acpi_debugfs_init prototype

2015-08-07T00:55:18+00:00

acpi_debugfs_init function is declared with return type int in drivers/acpi/internal.h when CONFIG_DEBUG_FS is enabled, but its definition in drivers/acpi/debugfs.c has return type void. This is due to commit aecad432fd68 ("ACPI: Cleanup custom_method debug stuff"), which changed the return type from int to void without updating the declaration. Fix this inconsistency by updating acpi_debugfs_init prototype. While at it, include internal.h in debugfs.c so that the compiler can check that the declaration and definition remain compatible.

Merge branch 'acpi-scan' into acpi-pm

2015-07-29T21:57:51+00:00

Conflicts: drivers/acpi/scan.c The conflict is resolved by moving the just introduced acpi_device_is_first_physical_node() to bus.c and using the existing acpi_companion_match() from there. There will be an additional commit to combine the two.
