2020-10-12thermal/idle_inject: Fix comment of idle_duration_us and name of latency_nszhuguangqing
The comment of idle_duration_us and the name of latency_ns can be misleading, so fix them. Signed-off-by: zhuguangqing <zhuguangqing@xiaomi.com> Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano <daniel.lezcano@linaro.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200917073553.898-1-zhuguangqing83@gmail.com
2020-05-19powercap/drivers/idle_inject: Specify idle state max latencyDaniel Lezcano
Currently the idle injection framework uses the play_idle() function which puts the current CPU in an idle state. The idle state is the deepest one, as specified by the latency constraint when calling the subsequent play_idle_precise() function with the INT_MAX. The idle_injection is used by the cpuidle_cooling device which computes the idle / run duration to mitigate the temperature by injecting idle cycles. The cooling device has no control on the depth of the idle state. Allow finer control of the idle injection mechanism by allowing to specify the latency for the idle state. Thus the cooling device has the ability to have a guarantee on the exit latency of the idle states it is injecting. Acked-by: Rafael J.

2019-09-03powercap: idle_inject: Use higher resolution for idle injectionDaniel Lezcano
The resolution of the idle injection is limited to 1ms. If there is a need for an injection of 1.2 ms, it is not possible. The idle injection API is not yet used, so it is safe to convert the existing API to the new time unit instead of adding more functions. Convert to microsecond in order to use a finer grain time unit when injecting idle cycles. Signed-off-by: Daniel Lezcano <daniel.lezcano@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2018-07-02powercap / idle_inject: Add an idle injection frameworkDaniel Lezcano
Initially, the cpu_cooling device for ARM was changed by adding a new policy inserting idle cycles. The intel_powerclamp driver does a similar action. Instead of implementing idle injections privately in the cpu_cooling device, move the idle injection code in a dedicated framework and give the opportunity to other frameworks to make use of it. The framework relies on the smpboot kthreads which handles via its main loop the common code for hotplugging and [un]parking. This code was previously tested with the cpu cooling device and went through several iterations. It results now in split code and API exported in the header file. It was tested with the cpu cooling device with success.
