Subject: [PATCH v5 0/6] AMD Pstate Fixes And Enhancements

The patch series adds some fixes and enhancements to the AMD pstate
driver.
It enables CPPC v2 for certain processors in the family 17H, as
requested
by TR40 processor users who expect improved performance and lower system
temperature.

Additionally, it fixes the initialization of nominal_freq for each
cpudata
and changes latency and delay values to be read from platform firmware
firstly
for more accurate timing.

A new quirk is also added for legacy processors that lack CPPC
capabilities which caused the pstate driver to fail loading.

I would greatly appreciate any feedbacks.

Thank you!

Changes from v4:
* improve the dmi matching rule with zen2 flag only

Changes from v3:
* change quirk matching broken BIOS with family/model ID and Zen2
flag to fix the CPPC definition issue
* fix typo in quirk

Changes from v2:
* change quirk matching to BIOS version and release (Mario)
* pick up RB flag from Mario

Changes from v1:
* pick up the RB flags from Mario
* address review comment of patch #6 for amd_get_nominal_freq()
* rebased the series to linux-pm/bleeding-edge v6.8.0-rc2
* update debug log for patch #5 as Mario suggested.
* fix some typos and format problems
* tested on 7950X platform

Subject: [PATCH v5 3/6] cpufreq:amd-pstate: initialize nominal_freq of each cpudata

Optimizes the process of retrieving the nominal frequency by utilizing
'cpudata->nominal_freq' instead of repeatedly accessing the cppc_acpi interface.

To enhance efficiency and reduce the CPU load, shifted to using
'cpudata->nominal_freq'. It allows for the nominal frequency to be accessed
directly from the cached data in 'cpudata' of each CPU.
It will also slightly reduce the frequency change latency while using pstate
driver passive mode.

make pstate driver initially retrieve the P-state transition delay and latency
values from the BIOS ACPI tables which has more reasonable delay and latency
values according to the platform design and requirements.

Previously there values were hardcoded at specific value which may
have conflicted with platform and it might not reflect the most accurate or
optimized setting for the processor.

Subject: [PATCH v5 5/6] cppc_acpi: print error message if CPPC is unsupported

to be more clear what is wrong with CPPC when pstate driver failed to
load which has dependency on the CPPC capabilities.

Add one more debug message to notify user if CPPC is not supported by
the CPU, then it will be easy to find out what need to fix for pstate
driver loading issue.

[ 0.477523] amd_pstate: the _CPC object is not present in SBIOS or ACPI disabled

Above message is not clear enough to verify whether CPPC is not supported.

Subject: [PATCH v5 6/6] cpufreq:amd-pstate: add quirk for the pstate CPPC capabilities missing

Add quirks table to get CPPC capabilities issue fixed by providing
correct perf or frequency values while driver loading.

If CPPC capabilities are not defined in the ACPI tables or wrongly
defined by platform firmware, it needs to use quick to get those
issues fixed with correct workaround values to make pstate driver
can be loaded even though there are CPPC capabilities errors.

The workaround will match the broken BIOS which lack of CPPC capabilities
nominal_freq and lowest_freq definition in the ACPI table.

Thank you help to review the patchset.
As the quirk is not only added for CPPC v2 support but also we can use it to fix other CPPC problems, it makes sense to implement it in this series.

Hi Gautham,
The frequency table support will be in next improvement items we can make if it is workable, as the quick support for end user, the quirk table
Is a good way to release in short term.

Perry.
