Subject: [PATCH v2 0/9] Implement AMD Pstate EPP Driver
Hi all,
This patchset implements one new AMD CPU frequency driver
"amd-pstate-epp” instance for better performance and power control.
CPPC has a parameter called energy preference performance (EPP).
The EPP is used in the CCLK DPM controller to drive the frequency that a core
is going to operate during short periods of activity.
EPP values will be utilized for different OS profiles (balanced, performance, power savings).
AMD Energy Performance Preference (EPP) provides a hint to the hardware
if software wants to bias toward performance (0x0) or energy efficiency (0xff)
The lowlevel power firmware will calculate the runtime frequency according to the EPP preference
value. So the EPP hint will impact the CPU cores frequency responsiveness.
We use the RAPL interface with "perf" tool to get the energy data of the package power.
Performance Per Watt (PPW) Calculation:
The PPW calculation is referred by below paper:
https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fsoftware.intel.com%2Fcontent%2Fdam%2Fdevelop%2Fexternal%2Fus%2Fen%2Fdocuments%2Fperformance-per-what-paper.pdf&data=04%7C01%7CPerry.Yuan%40amd.com%7Cac66e8ce98044e9b062708d9ab47c8d8%7C3dd8961fe4884e608e11a82d994e183d%7C0%7C0%7C637729147708574423%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=TPOvCE%2Frbb0ptBreWNxHqOi9YnVhcHGKG88vviDLb00%3D&reserved=0
Below formula is referred from below spec to measure the PPW:
(F / t) / P = F * t / (t * E) = F / E,
"F" is the number of frames per second.
"P" is power measured in watts.
"E" is energy measured in joules.

changes from v1:
* rebased to v6.0
* drive feedbacks from Mario for the suspend/resume patch
* drive feedbacks from Nathan for the EPP support on msr type
* fix some typos and code style indent problems
* update commit comments for patch 4/7
* change the `epp_enabled` module param name to `epp`
* set the default epp mode to be false
* try to move energy_perf_strings[] and epp_values[] into `msr-index.h`,
but this change will cause compiler errors "no such instruction...",
* add testing for the x86_energy_perf_policy utility patchset(will
send that utility patchset with another thread)
