Subject: [PATCH v5 0/7] Thermal: Introduce the Hardware Feedback Interface for thermal and performance management

Hi,

This is v5 of this patchset after having incorporated the feedback from
reviewers. Please find v1, v2, v3, and v4 in [1], [2], [3], and [4],
respectively.

The Intel Hardware Feedback Interface (HFI) [5] provides information about
the performance and energy efficiency of each CPU in the system. It uses a
table that is shared between hardware and the operating system. The
contents of the table may be updated as a result of changes in the
operating conditions of the system (e.g., reaching a thermal limit) or the
action of external factors (e.g., changes in the thermal design power).

The information that HFI provides are specified as numeric, unit-less
capabilities relative to other CPUs in the system. These capabilities have
a range of [0-255] where higher numbers represent higher capabilities.
Energy efficiency and performance are reported in separate capabilities.
If either the performance or energy capabilities efficiency of a CPU are 0,
the hardware recommends to not schedule any tasks on such CPU for
performance, energy efficiency or thermal reasons, respectively.

The kernel or user space may use the information from the HFI to modify
task placement and/or adjust power limits. This patchset focuses on the
user space. The thermal notification framework is extended to relay
updates of CPU capacity. Thus, a userspace daemon can affinitize workloads
to certain CPUs and/or offline CPUs whose capabilities are zero.

The frequency of HFI updates is specific to each processor model. On some
systems, there is just a single HFI update at boot. On other systems, there
may be updates every tens of milliseconds. In order to not overwhelm
userspace with too many updates, they are limited to one update every
CONFIG_HZ jiffies.

Thanks and BR,
Ricardo

Changes since v4:
++ Unchanged patches: 1, 2.
* Reworded description hfi_instance::hdr and hfi_instance::data.
(Patch 3; Srinivas)
* Call intel_hfi_online() before enabling the thermal vector at the
local APIC is enabled. This makes sure that a CPU has an associated
HFI instance when an HFI event happens. Reworded the commit message to
reflect this change. (Patch 4; Srinivas)
* Set hfi_instances to NULL if we fail to allocate memory for
hfi_instance::cpus. (Patch 4; Srinivas)
* Delayed initialization of local variables until after the check for a
non-NULL hfi_instances in intel_hfi_online(). (Patch 4; Srinivas)
* Optimized the error path in init_hfi_init() to not needlessly
free the memory of cpumasks that have not been allocated. (Patch 4;
Srinivas)
* Removed pointless checks for X86_FEATURE_HFI in
intel_hfi_[on|off]line(). It is sufficient to check for a non-NULL
hfi_instances or a CPU's hfi_instance. (Patch 4)
* Added a dedicated (i.e., not system_wq) workqueue to process HFI updates.
Reworded commit message accordingly. (Patch 5; Rafael)
* Repurposed comment on possibly receiving an HFI event with a NULL
hfi_cpu_info::instance. Patch 4 fixed this potential issue. Instead,
add a debug statement. (Patch 5; Srinivas)
* Wrapped check for NULL hfi_cpu_info::instance in the unlikely macro.
(Patch 5; Srinivas)
* Renamed struct cpu_capability as struct thermal_genl_cpu_caps.
(Patch 6; Rafael)
* Removed automatic variable ret from
thermal_genl_event_cpu_capability_change() and instead always return
-EMSGSIZE on error. (Patch 6; Rafael)
* Reworked parsing of HFI capabilities into chunks of
HFI_MAX_THERM_NOTIFY_COUNT CPUs at a time to reduce the time
we spend with interrupts disabled. (Patch7; Srinivas)
* Protected hfi_instance::cpus when iterating over them. (Patch 7;
Rafael)

Changes since v3:
++ Unchanged patches: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7.
* Corrected bug when initializing a CPU's HFI instance in
intel_hfi_online(). (Patch 4)

Changes since v2:
++ Unchanged patches: 1, 6, 7.
* Replaced subject prefix to be "x86/cpu:". (Patch 2; Boris)
* Rename the INTEL_HFI Kconfig option as INTEL_HFI_THERMAL to reflect
better the nature of the feature. (Patch 3; Rafael)
* Removed hfi_instance::initialized. Instead, use hfi_instance::
hdr to determine if the instance has been initialized. (Patch 4; Rafael)
* Renamed hfi_lock as hfi_instance_lock to reflect the fact that it is
used to protect accesses to HFI instances. (Patch 4; Rafael)
* Removed unnecessary locking when linking a CPU to an HFI instance
in intel_hfi_online(). (Patch 4; Rafael)
* Unconditionally link the hfi_instance of a package/die to CPUs in
the same package in intel_hfi_online(). Initialization is taken care
of separately. (Patch 4)
* Improved locking in error paths in intel_hfi_online(). (Patch 4; Rafael)
* Removed a pointless check for NULL when taking a pointer of an element
of hfi_instances. (Patch 4)
* Added missing #include files. (Patches 3, 4, 5)

Changes since v1:
++ Unchanged patches: none
* Clarified that HFI capabilities are independent. (Patch 1; Daniel)
* Provided examples on changes reflected in the HFI table.
(Patch 1; Daniel)
* Renamed X86_FEATURE_INTEL_HFI as X86_FEATURE_HFI. (Patch 2, 3, 4, 5;
Boris)
* Reworked parsing of HFI features using bitfields instead of bitmasks.
(Patch 3; PeterZ).
* Removed hfi_instance::parsed. (Patch 3; Rafael)
* Converted pr_err() to pr_debug(). (Patch 3; Srinivas, Rafael)
* Removed unnecessary dependency on CONFIG_SCHED_MC. (Patch 3)
* Renamed hfi_instance::ts_counter as hfi_instance::timestamp.
(Patch 3)
* Renamed hfi_instance::table_base as hfi_instance::local_table and
relocated its definition to this patch. (Patch 3)
* Wrapped hfi_instance::timestamp and hfi_instance:local_table in an
anonymous union, since both point at the same location. (Patch 3)
* Relocated definitions of MSR bits from intel_hfi.h to intel_hfi.c.
(Patch 4)
* Renamed HFI_PTR_VALID_BIT as HW_FEEDBACK_PTR_VALID_BIT for clarity.
(Patch 4).
* Reworked init_hfi_cpu_index() to take a pointer of type struct
hfi_cpu_info. (Patch 4; Rafael)
* In intel_hfi_online(), check for null hfi_instances and improve checks
of the die_id. (Patch 4; Rafael)
* Use a local cpumask_var_t to keep track of the CPUs of each
hfi_instance. (Patch 4; Rafael)
* Removed hfi_instance::die_id. It is not used anywhere. (Patch 4)
* Renamed hfi_instance::table_base as hfi_instance::local_table for
clarity. (Patch 4)
* Repurposed hfi_instance::event_lock to handle HFI interrupt
events to avoid keeping CPUs spinning needlessly. Added a new
hfi_instance::table_lock to serialize access to an HFI table.
(Patch 5; PeterZ)
* Replaced raw_spin_[un]lock[restore|save]() with raw_spin_[un]lock().
intel_hfi_process_event() runs in interrupt context and hence there
is no need to save interrupt flags. (Patch 5)
* Renamed HFI_CONFIG_ENABLE_BIT as HW_FEEDBACK_CONFIG_HFI_ENABLE_BIT
for clarity. (Patch 5)
* Relaxed checks on timestamp to allow time wrap around. (Patch 5)
* Reworded the members of struct cpu_capacity for clarity. (Patch 6;
Lukasz)
* Defined the CPU capability attributes to be scaled in the [0, 1023]
interval. (Patch 6; Lukasz)
* Made get_one_hfi_cap() return void. Removed unnecessary checks.
(Patch 7; Rafael)
* Replaced raw_spin_[un]lock_irq[restore|save]() with raw_spin_
[un]lock_irq() in get_one_hfi_cap(). This function is only called from
a workqueue and there is no need to save and restore irq flags.
* Scaled performance and energy efficiency values to a [0, 1023] interval
when reporting values to user space via thermal netlink notifications.
(Patch 7; Lucasz).

Subject: [PATCH v5 3/7] thermal: intel: hfi: Minimally initialize the Hardware Feedback Interface

The Intel Hardware Feedback Interface provides guidance to the operating
system about the performance and energy efficiency capabilities of each
CPU in the system. Capabilities are numbers between 0 and 255 where a
higher number represents a higher capability. For each CPU, energy
efficiency and performance are reported as separate capabilities.

Hardware computes these capabilities based on the operating conditions of
the system such as power and thermal limits. These capabilities are shared
with the operating system in a table resident in memory. Each package in
the system has its own HFI instance. Every logical CPU in the package is
represented in the table. More than one logical CPUs may be represented in
a single table entry. When the hardware updates the table, it generates a
package-level thermal interrupt.

The size and format of the HFI table depend on the supported features and
can only be determined at runtime. To minimally initialize the HFI, parse
its features and allocate one instance per package of a data structure with
the necessary parameters to read and navigate a local copy (i.e., owned by
the driver) of individual HFI tables.

A subsequent changeset will provide per-CPU initialization and interrupt
handling.

Subject: [PATCH v5 4/7] thermal: intel: hfi: Handle CPU hotplug events

All CPUs in a package are represented in an HFI table. There exists an
HFI table per package. Thus, CPUs in a package need to coordinate to
initialize and access the table. Do such coordination during CPU hotplug.
Use the first CPU to come online in a package to initialize the HFI
instance and the data structure representing it. Other CPUs in the same
package need only to register or unregister themselves in that data
structure.

The HFI depends on both the package-level thermal management and the local
APIC thermal local vector. Thus, to ensure that a CPU coming online has an
associated HFI instance when the hardware issues an HFI event, enable the
HFI only after having enabled the local APIC thermal vector. The thermal
throttle driver takes care of the needed package-level initialization.

HFI instance when an HFI event happens. Reworded the commit message to
reflect this change. (Srinivas)
* Set hfi_instances to NULL if we fail to allocate memory for
hfi_instance::cpus. (Srinivas)
* Delayed initialization of local variables until after the check for a
non-NULL hfi_instances in intel_hfi_online(). (Srinivas)
* Optimized the error path in init_hfi_init() to not needlessly
free the memory of cpumasks that have not been allocated. (Srinivas)
* Removed pointless checks for X86_FEATURE_HFI in
intel_hfi_[on|off]line(). It is sufficient to check for a non-NULL
hfi_instances or a CPU's hfi_instance.

Changes since v3:
* Corrected bug when initializing a CPU's HFI instance in
intel_hfi_online().

Changes since v2:
* Removed hfi_instance::initialized. Instead, use hfi_instance::
hdr to determine if the instance has been initialized. (Rafael)
* Renamed hfi_lock as hfi_instance_lock to reflect the fact that it is
used to protect accesses to HFI instances. (Rafael)
* Removed unnecessary locking when linking a CPU to an HFI instance
in intel_hfi_online(). (Rafael)
* Improved locking in error paths in intel_hfi_online(). (Rafael)
* Unconditionally link the hfi_instance of a package/die to CPUs in
the same package in intel_hfi_online(). Initialization is taken care
of separately.
* Removed a pointless check for NULL when taking a pointer of an element
of hfi_instances.
* Added missing #include files.

Changes since v1:
* Renamed X86_FEATURE_INTEL_HFI as X86_FEATURE_HFI. (Boris)
* Relocated definitions of MSR bits from intel_hfi.h to intel_hfi.c.
* Renamed HFI_PTR_VALID_BIT as HW_FEEDBACK_PTR_VALID_BIT for clarity.
* Reworked init_hfi_cpu_index() to take a pointer of type struct
hfi_cpu_info. This makes the function more concise. (Rafael)
* In intel_hfi_online(), check for null hfi_instances and improve checks
of the die_id. (Rafael)
* Use a local cpumask_var_t to keep track of the CPUs of each
hfi_instance. (Rafael)
* Removed hfi_instance::die_id. It is not used anywhere.
* Renamed hfi_instance::table_base as hfi_instance::local_table for
clarity.

+============================================================
+Hardware-Feedback Interface for scheduling on Intel Hardware
+============================================================
+
+Overview
+--------
+
+Intel has described the Hardware Feedback Interface (HFI) in the Intel 64 and
+IA-32 Architectures Software Developer's Manual (Intel SDM) Volume 3 Section
+14.6 [1]_.
+
+The HFI gives the operating system a performance and energy efficiency
+capability data for each CPU in the system. Linux can use the information from
+the HFI to influence task placement decisions.
+
+The Hardware Feedback Interface
+-------------------------------
+
+The Hardware Feedback Interface provides to the operating system information
+about the performance and energy efficiency of each CPU in the system. Each
+capability is given as a unit-less quantity in the range [0-255]. Higher values
+indicate higher capability. Energy efficiency and performance are reported in
+separate capabilities. Even though on some systems these two metrics may be
+related, they are specified as independent capabilities in the Intel SDM.
+
+These capabilities may change at runtime as a result of changes in the
+operating conditions of the system or the action of external factors. The rate
+at which these capabilities are updated is specific to each processor model. On
+some models, capabilities are set at boot time and never change. On others,
+capabilities may change every tens of milliseconds. For instance, a remote
+mechanism may be used to lower Thermal Design Power. Such change can be
+reflected in the HFI. Likewise, if the system needs to be throttled due to
+excessive heat, the HFI may reflect reduced performance on specific CPUs.
+
+The kernel or a userspace policy daemon can use these capabilities to modify
+task placement decisions. For instance, if either the performance or energy
+capabilities of a given logical processor becomes zero, it is an indication that
+the hardware recommends to the operating system to not schedule any tasks on
+that processor for performance or energy efficiency reasons, respectively.
+
+Implementation details for Linux
+--------------------------------
+
+The infrastructure to handle thermal event interrupts has two parts. In the
+Local Vector Table of a CPU's local APIC, there exists a register for the
+Thermal Monitor Register. This register controls how interrupts are delivered
+to a CPU when the thermal monitor generates and interrupt. Further details
+can be found in the Intel SDM Vol. 3 Section 10.5 [1]_.
+
+The thermal monitor may generate interrupts per CPU or per package. The HFI
+generates package-level interrupts. This monitor is configured and initialized
+via a set of machine-specific registers. Specifically, the HFI interrupt and
+status are controlled via designated bits in the IA32_PACKAGE_THERM_INTERRUPT
+and IA32_PACKAGE_THERM_STATUS registers, respectively. There exists one HFI
+table per package. Further details can be found in the Intel SDM Vol. 3
+Section 14.9 [1]_.
+
+The hardware issues an HFI interrupt after updating the HFI table and is ready
+for the operating system to consume it. CPUs receive such interrupt via the
+thermal entry in the Local APIC's Local Vector Table.
+
+When servicing such interrupt, the HFI driver parses the updated table and
+relays the update to userspace using the thermal notification framework. Given
+that there may be many HFI updates every second, the updates relayed to
+userspace are throttled at a rate of CONFIG_HZ jiffies.

Subject: [PATCH v5 6/7] thermal: netlink: Add a new event to notify CPU capabilities change

From: Srinivas Pandruvada <[email protected]>

Add a new netlink event to notify change in CPU capabilities in terms of
performance and efficiency.

Firmware may change CPU capabilities as a result of thermal events in the
system or to account for changes in the TDP (thermal design power) level.

This notification type will allow user space to avoid running workloads
on certain CPUs or proactively adjust power limits to avoid future events.

The netlink message consists of a nested attribute
(THERMAL_GENL_ATTR_CPU_CAPABILITY) with three attributes:

* THERMAL_GENL_ATTR_CPU_CAPABILITY_ID (type u32):
-- logical CPU number
* THERMAL_GENL_ATTR_CPU_CAPABILITY_PERFORMANCE (type u32):
-- Scaled performance from 0-1023
* THERMAL_GENL_ATTR_CPU_CAPABILITY_EFFICIENCY (type u32):
-- Scaled efficiency from 0-1023

Subject: [PATCH v5 5/7] thermal: intel: hfi: Enable notification interrupt

When hardware wants to inform the operating system about updates in the HFI
table, it issues a package-level thermal event interrupt. For this,
hardware has new interrupt and status bits in the IA32_PACKAGE_THERM_
INTERRUPT and IA32_PACKAGE_THERM_STATUS registers. The existing thermal
throttle driver already handles thermal event interrupts: it initializes
the thermal vector of the local APIC as well as per-CPU and package-level
interrupt reporting. It also provides routines to service such interrupts.
Extend its functionality to also handle HFI interrupts.

The frequency of the thermal HFI interrupt is specific to each processor
model. On some processors, a single interrupt happens as soon as the HFI is
enabled and hardware will never update HFI capabilities afterwards. On
other processors, thermal and power constraints may cause thermal HFI
interrupts every tens of milliseconds.

To not overwhelm consumers of the HFI data, use delayed work to throttle
the rate at which HFI updates are processed. Use a dedicated workqueue to
not overload system_wq if hardware issues many HFI updates.

Changes since v4:
* Added a dedicated (i.e., not system_wq) workqueue to process HFI
updates. Reworded commit message accordingly. (Rafael)
* Repurposed comment on possibly receiving an HFI event with a NULL
hfi_cpu_info::instance. Patch 4 fixed this potential issue. Instead,
add a debug statement. (Srinivas)
* Wrapped check for NULL hfi_cpu_info::instance in the unlikely macro.
(Srinivas)

Changes since v3:
* None

Changes since v2:
* Added missing #include files.

Changes since v1:
* Renamed X86_FEATURE_INTEL_HFI as X86_FEATURE_HFI. (Boris)
* Repurposed hfi_instance::event_lock to handle HFI interrupt
events to avoid keeping CPUs spinning needlessly. Added a new
hfi_instance::table_lock to serialize access to an HFI table.
(PeterZ)
* Replaced raw_spin_[un]lock[restore|save]() with raw_spin_[un]lock().
intel_hfi_process_event() runs in interrupt context and hence there
is no need to save interrupt flags.
* Renamed HFI_CONFIG_ENABLE_BIT as HW_FEEDBACK_CONFIG_HFI_ENABLE_BIT
for clarity.
* Reworked timestamp updates for readability. Removed redundant
hfi_instance::timestamp.
* Relaxed timestamp check to allow time wrap-around.

Subject: [PATCH v5 7/7] thermal: intel: hfi: Notify user space for HFI events

From: Srinivas Pandruvada <[email protected]>

When the hardware issues an HFI event, relay a notification to user space.
This allows user space to respond by reading performance and efficiency of
each CPU and take appropriate action.

For example, when the performance and efficiency of a CPU is 0, user space
can either offline the CPU or inject idle. Also, if user space notices a
downward trend in performance, it may proactively adjust power limits to
avoid future situations in which performance drops to 0.

To avoid excessive notifications, the rate is limited by one HZ per event.
To limit the netlink message size, send parameters for up to 16 CPUs in a
single message. If there are more than 16 CPUs, issue as many messages as
needed to notify the status of all CPUs.

In the HFI specification, both performance and efficiency capabilities are
defined in the [0, 255] range. The existing implementations of HFI hardware
do not scale the maximum values to 255. Since userspace cares about
capability values that are either 0 or show a downward/upward trend, this
fact does not matter much. Relative changes in capabilities are enough. To
comply with the thermal netlink ABI, scale both performance and efficiency
capabilities to the [0, 1023] interval.

Changes since v4:
* Reworked parsing of HFI capabilities into chunks of
HFI_MAX_THERM_NOTIFY_COUNT CPUs at a time to reduce the time
we spend with interrupts disabled. (Srinivas)
* Protected hfi_instance::cpus when iterating over them. (Rafael)

Changes since v3:
* None

Changes since v2:
* None

Changes since v1:
* Made get_one_hfi_cap() return void. Removed unnecessary checks.
(Rafael)
* Replaced raw_spin_[un]lock_irq[restore|save]() with raw_spin_
[un]lock_irq() in get_one_hfi_cap(). This function is only called from
a workqueue and there is no need to save and restore irq flags.
* Scaled performance and energy efficiency values to a [0, 1023] interval
when reporting values to user space via thermal netlink notifications.
(Lucasz).
* Reworded commit message to comment on the scaling of HFI capabilities
to comply with the proposed thermal netlink ABI.
