Subject: [PATCH v3 0/6] consolidate and cleanup CPU capacity
This is the 1st part of consolidating how the max compute capacity is
used in the scheduler and how we calculate the frequency for a level of
utilization.
Fix some unconsistancy when computing frequency for an utilization. There
can be a mismatch between energy model and schedutil.
Next step will be to make a difference between the original
max compute capacity of a CPU and what is currently available when
there is a capping applying forever (i.e. seconds or more).
Changes since v2:
- Remove the 1st patch which has been queued in tip
- Rework how to initialize the reference frequency for cppc_cpufreq and
change topology_init_cpu_capacity_cppc() to also set capacity_ref_freq
- Add a RFC to convert AMU to use arch_scale_freq_ref and move the config
of the AMU ratio to be done when intializing cpu capacity and
capacity_ref_freq
- Added some tags
Changes since v1:
- Fix typos
- Added changes in cpufreq to use arch_scale_freq_ref() when calling
arch_set_freq_scale (patch 3).
- arch_scale_freq_ref() is always defined and returns 0 (as proposed
by Ionela) when not defined by the arch. This simplifies the code with
the addition of patch 3.
- Simplify Energy Model which always uses arch_scale_freq_ref(). The
latter returns 0 when not defined by arch instead of last item of the
perf domain. This is not a problem because the function is only defined
for compilation purpose in this case and we don't care about the
returned value. (patch 5)
- Added changes in cppc cpufreq to set capacity_ref_freq (patch 6)
- Added reviewed tag for patch 1 which got a minor change but not for
others as I did some changes which could make previous reviewed tag
no more relevant.
Vincent Guittot (6):
topology: add a new arch_scale_freq_reference
cpufreq: use the fixed and coherent frequency for scaling capacity
cpufreq/schedutil: use a fixed reference frequency
energy_model: use a fixed reference frequency
cpufreq/cppc: set the frequency used for computing the capacity
arm64/amu: use capacity_ref_freq to set AMU ratio
