Subject: [PATCH v5 0/2] x86/fpu: Make AMX state ready for CPU idle

Here is the fifth version of this series.

I've addressed Dave's comment [2] assuming that the change makes sense to
folks:
* Check the AMX_TILE feature bit instead of XGETBV1.
* Massage the changelog accordingly.

While many people had their eyeballs on this, Rafael's ACK was given so
far. Hopefully this can attracts more acknowledgment or endorsement if it
looks fine.

=== Cover Letter ===

AMX state is a large state (at least 8KB or more). Entering CPU idle with
this non-initialized large state may result in shallow states while a
deeper low-power state is available.

We can confirm this behavior is implementation-specific. Section 3.3 in [3]
will be updated to clarify this.

This patch set ensures the AMX state is initialized before entering the CPU
idle state.

The patch set is based on 5.19-rc1. It is also available here:

Subject: [PATCH v5 2/2] intel_idle: Add a new flag to initialize the AMX state

The non-initialized AMX state can be the cause of C-state demotion from C6
to C1E. This low-power idle state may improve power savings and thus result
in a higher available turbo frequency budget.

This behavior is implementation-specific. Initialize the state for the C6
entrance of Sapphire Rapids as needed.

Subject: [PATCH v5 1/2] x86/fpu: Add a helper to prepare AMX state for low-power CPU idle

When a CPU enters an idle state, a non-initialized AMX register state may
be the cause of preventing a deeper low-power state. Other extended
register states whether initialized or not do not impact the CPU idle
state.

The new helper can ensure the AMX state is initialized before the CPU is
idle, and it will be used by the intel idle driver.

Check the AMX_TILE feature bit before using XGETBV1 as a chain of
dependencies was established via cpuid_deps[]: AMX->XFD->XGETBV1.

Changes from v2:

Changes from v1:

x86/fpu: Add a helper to prepare AMX state for low-power CPU idle

When a CPU enters an idle state, a non-initialized AMX register state may
be the cause of preventing a deeper low-power state. Other extended
register states whether initialized or not do not impact the CPU idle
state.

The new helper can ensure the AMX state is initialized before the CPU is
idle, and it will be used by the intel idle driver.

Check the AMX_TILE feature bit before using XGETBV1 as a chain of
dependencies was established via cpuid_deps[]: AMX->XFD->XGETBV1.

intel_idle: Add a new flag to initialize the AMX state

The non-initialized AMX state can be the cause of C-state demotion from C6
to C1E. This low-power idle state may improve power savings and thus result
in a higher available turbo frequency budget.

This behavior is implementation-specific. Initialize the state for the C6
entrance of Sapphire Rapids as needed.

Hi,

this is conflicting with the retbleed changes which went upstream and
resolving those conflicts would practically mean rewriting your patches.

Can you please redo them ontop of -rc7 and send them again?

This is not something we normally do but retbleed is not something
normal so..

Thanks!

x86/fpu: Add a helper to prepare AMX state for low-power CPU idle

When a CPU enters an idle state, a non-initialized AMX register state may
be the cause of preventing a deeper low-power state. Other extended
register states whether initialized or not do not impact the CPU idle
state.

The new helper can ensure the AMX state is initialized before the CPU is
idle, and it will be used by the intel idle driver.

Check the AMX_TILE feature bit before using XGETBV1 as a chain of
dependencies was established via cpuid_deps[]: AMX->XFD->XGETBV1.
