cpuidle: Add RISC-V SBI CPU idle driver

The RISC-V SBI HSM extension provides HSM suspend call which can
be used by Linux RISC-V to enter platform specific low-power state.

This patch adds a CPU idle driver based on RISC-V SBI calls which
will populate idle states from device tree and use SBI calls to
entry these idle states.

cpuidle: Factor-out power domain related code from PSCI domain driver

The generic power domain related code in PSCI domain driver is largely
independent of PSCI and can be shared with RISC-V SBI domain driver
hence we factor-out this code into dt_idle_genpd.c and dt_idle_genpd.h.

cpuidle: psci: Split into two separate build objects

The combined build object for the PSCI cpuidle driver and the PSCI PM
domain, is a bit messy. Therefore let's split it up by adding a new Kconfig
ARM_PSCI_CPUIDLE_DOMAIN and convert into two separate objects.

cpuidle: Convert Qualcomm SPM driver to a generic CPUidle driver

The Qualcomm SPM cpuidle driver seems to be the last driver still
using the generic ARM CPUidle infrastructure.

Converting it actually allows us to simplify the driver,
and we end up being able to remove more lines than adding new ones:

- We can parse the CPUidle states in the device tree directly
with dt_idle_states (and don't need to duplicate that
functionality into the spm driver).

- Each "saw" device managed by the SPM driver now directly
registers its own cpuidle driver, removing the need for
any global (per cpu) state.

The device tree binding is the same, so the driver stays
compatible with all old device trees.

cpuidle: psci: Add a helper to attach a CPU to its PM domain

Introduce a PSCI DT helper function, psci_dt_attach_cpu(), which takes a
CPU number as an in-parameter and tries to attach the CPU's struct device
to its corresponding PM domain.

Let's makes use of dev_pm_domain_attach_by_name(), as it allows us to
specify "psci" as the "name" of the PM domain to attach to. Additionally,
let's also prepare the attached device to be power managed via runtime PM.

Note that, the implementation of the new helper function is in a new
separate c-file, which may seems a bit too much at this point. However,
subsequent changes that implements the remaining part of the PM domain
support for cpuidle-psci, helps to justify this split.

ARM: psci: cpuidle: Introduce PSCI CPUidle driver

PSCI firmware is the standard power management control for
all ARM64 based platforms and it is also deployed on some
ARM 32 bit platforms to date.

Idle state entry in PSCI is currently achieved by calling
arm_cpuidle_init() and arm_cpuidle_suspend() in a generic
idle driver, which in turn relies on ARM/ARM64 CPUidle back-end
to relay the call into PSCI firmware if PSCI is the boot method.

Given that PSCI is the standard idle entry method on ARM64 systems
(which means that no other CPUidle driver are expected on ARM64
platforms - so PSCI is already a generic idle driver), in order to
simplify idle entry and code maintenance, it makes sense to have a PSCI
specific idle driver so that idle code that it is currently living in
drivers/firmware directory can be hoisted out of it and moved
where it belongs, into a full-fledged PSCI driver, leaving PSCI code
in drivers/firmware as a pure firmware interface, as it should be.

Implement a PSCI CPUidle driver. By default it is a silent Kconfig entry
which is left unselected, since it selection would clash with the
generic ARM CPUidle driver that provides a PSCI based idle driver
through the arm/arm64 arches back-ends CPU operations.

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

drivers: cpuidle: CPU idle ARM64 driver

This patch implements a generic CPU idle driver for ARM64 machines.

It relies on the DT idle states infrastructure to initialize idle
states count and respective parameters. Current code assumes the driver
is managing idle states on all possible CPUs but can be easily
generalized to support heterogenous systems and build cpumasks at
runtime using MIDRs or DT cpu nodes compatible properties.

The driver relies on the arm64 CPU operations to call the idle
initialization hook used to parse and save suspend back-end specific
idle states information upon probing.

Idle state index 0 is always initialized as a simple wfi state, ie always
considered present and functional on all ARM64 platforms.

Idle state indices higher than 0 trigger idle state entry by calling
the cpu_suspend function, that triggers the suspend operation through
the CPU operations suspend back-end hook. cpu_suspend passes the idle
state index as a parameter so that the CPU operations suspend back-end
can retrieve the required idle state data by using the idle state
index to execute a look-up on its internal data structures.

drivers: cpuidle: implement DT based idle states infrastructure

On most common ARM systems, the low-power states a CPU can be put into are
not discoverable in HW and require device tree bindings to describe
power down suspend operations and idle states parameters.

In order to enable DT based idle states and configure idle drivers, this
patch implements the bulk infrastructure required to parse the device tree
idle states bindings and initialize the corresponding CPUidle driver states
data.

The parsing API accepts a start index that defines the first idle state
that should be initialized by the parsing code in order to give new and
legacy driver flexibility over which states should be parsed using the
new DT mechanism.

The idle states node(s) is obtained from the phandle list of the first cpu
in the driver cpumask; the kernel checks that the idle state node phandle
is the same for all CPUs in the driver cpumask before declaring the idle state
as valid and start parsing its content.

The idle state enter function pointer is initialized through DT match
structures passed in by the CPUidle driver, so that ARM legacy code can
cope with platform specific idle entry method based on compatible
string matching and the code used to initialize the enter function pointer
can be moved to the DT generic layer.

this patch renames the driver and its symbols.

It also changes the driver name from cpuidle-armada-370-xp to
cpuidle-armada-xp, because separate platform drivers will be
registered for the other SoC types. This change must be done
simultaneously in the cpuidle driver and in the PMSU code in order to

cpuidle: cpuidle-cps: add MIPS CPS cpuidle driver

This patch adds a cpuidle driver for systems based around the MIPS
Coherent Processing System (CPS) architecture. It supports four idle
states:

- The standard MIPS wait instruction.

- The non-coherent wait, clock gated & power gated states exposed by
the recently added pm-cps layer.

The pm-cps layer is used to enter all the deep idle states. Since cores
in the clock or power gated states cannot service interrupts, the
gic_send_ipi_single function is modified to send a power up command for
the appropriate core to the CPC in cases where the target CPU has marked
itself potentially incoherent.

cpuidle: big.LITTLE: vexpress-TC2 CPU idle driver

The big.LITTLE architecture is composed of two clusters of cpus. One cluster
contains less powerful but more energy efficient processors and the other
cluster groups the powerful but energy-intensive cpus.

The TC2 testchip implements two clusters of CPUs (A7 and A15 clusters in
a big.LITTLE configuration) connected through a CCI interconnect that manages
coherency of their respective L2 caches and intercluster distributed
virtual memory messages (DVM).

TC2 testchip integrates a power controller that manages cores resets, wake-up
IRQs and cluster low-power states. Power states are managed at cluster
level, which means that voltage is removed from a cluster iff all cores
in a cluster are in a wfi state. Single cores can enter a reset state
which is identical to wfi in terms of power consumption but simplifies the
way cluster states are entered.

This patch provides a multiple driver CPU idle implementation for TC2
which paves the way for a generic big.LITTLE idle driver for all
upcoming big.LITTLE based systems on chip.

The driver relies on the MCPM infrastructure to coordinate and manage
core power states; in particular MCPM allows to suspend specific cores
and hides the CPUs coordination required to shut-down clusters of CPUs.

Power down sequences for the respective clusters are implemented in the
MCPM TC2 backend, with all code needed to clean caches and exit coherency.

The multiple driver CPU idle infrastructure allows to define different
C-states for big and little cores, determined at boot by checking the
part id of the possible CPUs and initializing the respective logical
masks in the big and little drivers.

Current big.little systems are composed of A7 and A15 clusters, as
implemented in TC2, but in the future that may change and the driver
will have evolve to retrieve what is a 'big' cpu and what is a 'little'
cpu in order to build the correct topology.

When the CPU_IDLE and the ARCH_KIRKWOOD options are set it is
pointless to define a new option CPU_IDLE_KIRKWOOD because it
is redundant.

The Makefile drivers directory contains a condition to compile
the cpuidle drivers:

obj-$(CONFIG_CPU_IDLE) += cpuidle/

Hence, if CPU_IDLE is not set we won't enter this directory.

This patch removes the useless Kconfig option and replaces the
condition in the Makefile by CONFIG_ARCH_KIRKWOOD.

cpuidle: add support for states that affect multiple cpus

On some ARM SMP SoCs (OMAP4460, Tegra 2, and probably more), the
cpus cannot be independently powered down, either due to
sequencing restrictions (on Tegra 2, cpu 0 must be the last to
power down), or due to HW bugs (on OMAP4460, a cpu powering up
will corrupt the gic state unless the other cpu runs a work
around). Each cpu has a power state that it can enter without
coordinating with the other cpu (usually Wait For Interrupt, or
WFI), and one or more "coupled" power states that affect blocks
shared between the cpus (L2 cache, interrupt controller, and
sometimes the whole SoC). Entering a coupled power state must
be tightly controlled on both cpus.

The easiest solution to implementing coupled cpu power states is
to hotplug all but one cpu whenever possible, usually using a
cpufreq governor that looks at cpu load to determine when to
enable the secondary cpus. This causes problems, as hotplug is an
expensive operation, so the number of hotplug transitions must be
minimized, leading to very slow response to loads, often on the
order of seconds.

This file implements an alternative solution, where each cpu will
wait in the WFI state until all cpus are ready to enter a coupled
state, at which point the coupled state function will be called
on all cpus at approximately the same time.

Once all cpus are ready to enter idle, they are woken by an smp
cross call. At this point, there is a chance that one of the
cpus will find work to do, and choose not to enter idle. A
final pass is needed to guarantee that all cpus will call the
power state enter function at the same time. During this pass,
each cpu will increment the ready counter, and continue once the
ready counter matches the number of online coupled cpus. If any
cpu exits idle, the other cpus will decrement their counter and
retry.

To use coupled cpuidle states, a cpuidle driver must:

Set struct cpuidle_device.coupled_cpus to the mask of all
coupled cpus, usually the same as cpu_possible_mask if all cpus
are part of the same cluster. The coupled_cpus mask must be
set in the struct cpuidle_device for each cpu.

Set struct cpuidle_device.safe_state to a state that is not a
coupled state. This is usually WFI.

Set CPUIDLE_FLAG_COUPLED in struct cpuidle_state.flags for each
state that affects multiple cpus.

Provide a struct cpuidle_state.enter function for each state
that affects multiple cpus. This function is guaranteed to be
called on all cpus at approximately the same time. The driver
should ensure that the cpus all abort together if any cpu tries
to abort once the function is called.

update1:

cpuidle: coupled: fix count of online cpus

online_count was never incremented on boot, and was also counting
cpus that were not part of the coupled set. Fix both issues by
introducting a new function that counts online coupled cpus, and
call it from register as well as the hotplug notifier.

update2:

cpuidle: coupled: fix decrementing ready count

cpuidle_coupled_set_not_ready sometimes refuses to decrement the
ready count in order to prevent a race condition. This makes it
unsuitable for use when finished with idle. Add a new function
cpuidle_coupled_set_done that decrements both the ready count and
waiting count, and call it after idle is complete.

CPUIDLE: handle BM detection inside the ACPI Processor driver

Update the ACPI processor driver to detect BM activity and

activity is now handled much more aggressively than it was in the
original implementation, so some testing coverage may be needed to
verify that this doesn't introduce any DMA buffer under-run issues.

cpuidle: re-write

Some portions have been rewritten to make the code cleaner and lighter
weight. The following is a list of changes:

1.) the state name is now included in the sysfs interface
2.) detection, hotplug, and available state modifications are handled by
CPUIDLE drivers directly
3.) the CPUIDLE idle handler is only ever installed when at least one
cpuidle_device is enabled and ready
4.) the menu governor BM code no longer overflows
5.) the sysfs attributes are now printed as unsigned integers, avoiding
negative values
6.) a variety of other small cleanups

Also, Idle drivers are no longer swappable during runtime through the
CPUIDLE sysfs inteface. On i386 and x86_64 most idle handlers (e.g.
poll, mwait, halt, etc.) don't benefit from an infrastructure that
supports multiple states, so I think using a more general case idle
handler selection mechanism would be cleaner.

cpuidle: add the 'menu' governor

Here is my first take at implementing an idle PM governor that takes
full advantage of NO_HZ. I call it the 'menu' governor because it
considers the full list of idle states before each entry.

I've kept the implementation fairly simple. It attempts to guess the
next residency time and then chooses a state that would meet at least
the break-even point between power savings and entry cost. To this end,
it selects the deepest idle state that satisfies the following
constraints:
1. If the idle time elapsed since bus master activity was detected
is below a threshold (currently 20 ms), then limit the selection
to C2-type or above.
2. Do not choose a state with a break-even residency that exceeds
the expected time remaining until the next timer interrupt.
3. Do not choose a state with a break-even residency that exceeds
the elapsed time between the last pair of break events,
excluding timer interrupts.

This governor has an advantage over "ladder" governor because it
proactively checks how much time remains until the next timer interrupt
using the tick infrastructure. Also, it handles device interrupt
activity more intelligently by not including timer interrupts in break
event calculations. Finally, it doesn't make policy decisions using the
number of state entries, which can have variable residency times (NO_HZ
makes these potentially very large), and instead only considers sleep
time deltas.

The menu governor can be selected during runtime using the cpuidle sysfs
interface like so:
"echo "menu" > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuidle/current_governor"

Also modify the main idle loop to allow dynticks to handle

cpuidle: governor API changes

This patch prepares cpuidle for the menu governor. It adds an optional
stage after idle state entry to give the governor an opportunity to
check why the state was exited. Also it makes sure the idle loop

cpuidle: hang fix

Prevent hang on x86-64, when ACPI processor driver is added as a module on
a system that does not support C-states.

x86-64 expects all idle handlers to enable interrupts before returning from
idle handler. This is due to enter_idle(), exit_idle() races. Make
cpuidle_idle_call() confirm to this when there is no pm_idle_old.

Also, cpuidle look at the return values of attch_driver() and set
current_driver to NULL if attach fails on all CPUs.

cpuidle: add support for max_cstate limit

With CPUIDLE framework, the max_cstate (to limit max cpu c-state)
parameter is ingored. Some systems require it to ignore C2/C3
and some drivers like ipw require it too.

cpuidle take2: Hookup ACPI C-states driver with cpuidle

Hookup ACPI C-states onto generic cpuidle infrastructure.

drivers/acpi/procesor_idle.c is now a ACPI C-states driver that registers as
a driver in cpuidle infrastructure and the policy part is removed from
drivers/acpi/processor_idle.c. We use governor in cpuidle instead.

cpuidle take2: Core cpuidle infrastructure

Announcing 'cpuidle', a new CPU power management infrastructure to manage
idle CPUs in a clean and efficient manner.
cpuidle separates out the drivers that can provide support for multiple types
of idle states and policy governors that decide on what idle state to use
at run time.
A cpuidle driver can support multiple idle states based on parameters like
varying power consumption, wakeup latency, etc (ACPI C-states for example).
A cpuidle governor can be usage model specific (laptop, server,
laptop on battery etc).
Main advantage of the infrastructure being, it allows independent development
of drivers and governors and allows for better CPU power management.

A huge thanks to Adam Belay and Shaohua Li who were part of this mini-project
since its beginning and are greatly responsible for this patchset.

This patch:

Core cpuidle infrastructure.
Introduces a new abstraction layer for cpuidle:
* which manages drivers that can support multiple idles states. Drivers
can be generic or particular to specific hardware/platform
* allows pluging in multiple policy governors that can take idle state policy
decision
* The core also has a set of sysfs interfaces with which administrato can know
about supported drivers and governors and switch them at run time.
