Subject: [PATCH v4 7/7] thermal: intel: hfi: Notify user space for HFI events

From: Srinivas Pandruvada <srinivas.pandruvada@...ux.intel.com>

When the hardware issues an HFI event, relay a notification to user space.
This allows user space to respond by reading performance and efficiency of
each CPU and take appropriate action.

For example, when performance and efficiency of a CPU is 0, user space can
either offline the CPU or inject idle. Also, if user space notices a
downward trend in performance, it may proactively adjust power limits to
avoid future situations in which performance drops to 0.

To avoid excessive notifications, the rate is limited by one HZ per event.
To limit the netlink message size, parameters for only 16 CPUs at max are
sent in one message. If there are more than 16 CPUs, issue as many messages
as needed to notify the status of all CPUs.

In the HFI specification, both performance and efficiency capabilities are
set in the [0, 255] range. The existing implementations of HFI hardware
do not scale the maximum values to 255. Since userspace cares about
capability values that are either 0 or show a downward/upward trend, this
fact does not matter much. Relative changes in capabilities are enough. To
comply with the thermal netlink ABI, scale both performance and efficiency
capabilities to the [0, 1023] interval.

Changes since v3:
  * None

Changes since v2:
  * None

Changes since v1:
  * Made get_one_hfi_cap() return void. Removed unnecessary checks.
    (Rafael)
  * Replaced raw_spin_[un]lock_irq[restore|save]() with raw_spin_
    [un]lock_irq() in get_one_hfi_cap(). This function is only called from
    a workqueue and there is no need to save and restore irq flags.
  * Scaled performance and energy efficiency values to a [0, 1023] interval
    when reporting values to user space via thermal netlink notifications.
    (Lucasz).
  * Reworded commit message to comment on the scaling of HFI capabilities
    to comply with the proposed thermal netlink ABI.
