Subject: [PATCH v3 0/7] AMD Pstate Driver Core Performance Boost

Hi all,
The patchset series add core performance boost feature for AMD pstate
driver including passisve ,guide and active mode support.

User can change core frequency boost control with a new sysfs entry:

"/sys/devices/system/cpu/amd_pstate/cpb_boost"

The legancy boost interface has been removed due to the function
conflict with new cpb_boost which can support all modes.

1). enable core boost:
$ sudo bash -c "echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/amd_pstate/cpb_boost"
$ lscpu -ae
CPU NODE SOCKET CORE L1d:L1i:L2:L3 ONLINE MAXMHZ MINMHZ MHZ
0 0 0 0 0:0:0:0 yes 4201.0000 400.0000 2983.578
1 0 0 1 1:1:1:0 yes 4201.0000 400.0000 2983.578

4 0 0 4 4:4:4:0 yes 4201.0000 400.0000 2983.578

2). disabble core boost:
$ sudo bash -c "echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/amd_pstate/cpb_boost"
$ lscpu -ae
0 0 0 0 0:0:0:0 yes 5759.0000 400.0000 2983.578
1 0 0 1 1:1:1:0 yes 5759.0000 400.0000 2983.578
2 0 0 2 2:2:2:0 yes 5759.0000 400.0000 2983.578
3 0 0 3 3:3:3:0 yes 5759.0000 400.0000 2983.578
4 0 0 4 4:4:4:0 yes 5759.0000 400.0000 2983.578


The patches have been tested with the AMD 7950X processor and many users
would like to get core boost control enabled for power saving.

Perry.

Changes from v2:
* move global struct to amd-pstate.h
* fix the amd-pstate-ut with new cpb control interface

Changes from v1:
* drop suspend/resume fix patch 6/7 because of the fix should be in
another fix series instead of CPB feature
* move the set_boost remove patch to the last(Mario)
* Fix commit info with "Closes:" (Mario)
* simplified global.cpb_supported initialization(Mario)
* Add guide mode support for CPB control
* Fixed some Doc typos and add guide mode info to Doc as well.

Subject: [PATCH v3 1/7] cpufreq: amd-pstate: initialize new core precision boost state

From: Perry Yuan <[email protected]>

Add gloal global_params to represent current CPU Performance Boost(cpb)
state for cpu frequency scaling, both active and passive modes all can
support CPU cores frequency boosting control which is based on the BIOS
setting, while BIOS turn on the "Core Performance Boost", it will
allow OS control each core highest perf limitation from OS side.

If core performance boost is disabled while a core is in a boosted P-state,
the core transitions to the highest performance non-boosted P-state,
that is the same as the nominal frequency limit.

From: Perry Yuan <[email protected]>

With this new sysfs entry `cpb_boost`created, user can change CPU boost
state dynamically under `active`, `guided` and `passive` modes.
And the highest perf and frequency will also be updated as the boost
state changing.

0): check current boost state
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/amd_pstate/cpb_boost

1): disable CPU boost
sudo bash -c "echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/amd_pstate/cpb_boost"

2): enable CPU boost
sudo bash -c "echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/amd_pstate/cpb_boost"

As a result of this removal the kernel-doc for this struct should be amended too because even after this patch is applied the `boost_supported` field remains documented.

The set_boost is callback used by cpufreq.c, the boost_supported is not documented before the patch.
We just need to add new sysfs "cpb_boost" introduction in the "/Documentation/admin-guide/pm/amd-pstate.rst"
The legacy boost is not supported any more, we have no need to document it again as it is.

`boost_supported` as a field of `struct amd_cpudata` is documented in the kernel-doc right before the structure, and this bit should be removed like shown below:

```
--- a/include/linux/amd-pstate.h
+++ b/include/linux/amd-pstate.h

* @hw_prefcore: check whether HW supports preferred core featue.

You mean the comment in the amd-pstate.h, right?
I misunderstood that you are referring to amd-pstate.rst Doc.
The comment is removed from v4, will send it out after other feedback collected.
Thanks for the review!

Doesn't this require `EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(global)` then? Otherwise with v6.8 I get this:

```
ERROR: modpost: "global" [drivers/cpufreq/amd-pstate-ut.ko] undefined!
```

If so, I'd pretty mush rename this to be less generic, say, `amd_pstate_global_params_struct` for the struct name itself and `amd_pstate_global_params` for the actual variable name.
