It is reported that, with CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC=y cpu stays at the
lowest frequency even if the usage goes to 100%, neither ondemand
nor conservative governor works, however performance and
userspace work as expected. If set with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL=y,
everything goes well.
This problem is caused by improper calculation of the idle_time
when the load is extremely high(near 100%). Firstly, cpufreq_governor
uses get_cpu_idle_time to get the total idle time for specific cpu, then:
1.If the system is configured with CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL, the idle time is
returned by ktime_get, which is always increasing, it's OK.
2.However, if the system is configured with CONFIG_HZ_PERIODIC,
get_cpu_idle_time might not guarantee to be always increasing,
because it will leverage get_cpu_idle_time_jiffy to calculate the
idle_time, consider the following scenario:
At T1:
idle_tick_1 = total_tick_1 - user_tick_1
sample period(80ms)...
At T2: ( T2 = T1 + 80ms):
idle_tick_2 = total_tick_2 - user_tick_2
Currently the algorithm is using (idle_tick_2 - idle_tick_1) to
get the delta idle_time during the past sample period, however
it CAN NOT guarantee that idle_tick_2 >= idle_tick_1, especially
when cpu load is high.
(Yes, total_tick_2 >= total_tick_1, and user_tick_2 >= user_tick_1,
but how about idle_tick_2 and idle_tick_1? No guarantee.)
So governor might get a negative value of idle_time during the past
sample period, which might mislead the system that the idle time is
very big(converted to unsigned int), and the busy time is nearly zero,
which causes the governor to always choose the lowest cpufreq,
then cause this problem.
In theory there are two solutions:
1.The logic should not rely on the idle tick during every sample period,
but be based on the busy tick directly, as this is how 'top' is
implemented.
2.Or the logic must make sure that the idle_time is strictly increasing
during each sample period, then there would be no negative idle_time
anymore. This solution requires minimum modification to current code
and this patch uses method 2.

Notice that the boost_supported field in struct cpufreq_driver is
redundant, because the driver's ->set_boost callback may be left
unset if "boost" is not supported. Moreover, the only driver
populating the ->set_boost callback is acpi_cpufreq, so make it
avoid populating that callback if "boost" is not supported, rework
the core to check ->set_boost instead of boost_supported to
verify "boost" support and drop boost_supported which isn't
used any more.

This driver is the only one that calls regulator_sync_voltage(), but it
can currently be built with CONFIG_REGULATOR disabled, producing
this build error:
drivers/cpufreq/tegra124-cpufreq.c: In function 'tegra124_cpu_switch_to_pllx':
drivers/cpufreq/tegra124-cpufreq.c:68:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'regulator_sync_voltage' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
regulator_sync_voltage(priv->vdd_cpu_reg);
My first attempt was to implement a helper for this function
for regulator_sync_voltage, but Mark Brown explained:
We don't do this for *all* regulator API functions - there's some where
using them strongly suggests that there is actually a dependency on
the regulator API. This does seem like it might be falling into the
specialist category [...]
Looking at the code I'm pretty unclear on what the authors think the
use of _sync_voltage() is doing in the first place so it may be even
better to just remove the call. It seems to have been included in the
first commit so there's not changelog explaining things and there's
no comment either. I'd *expect* it to be a noop as far as I can see.
This adds the dependency to make the driver always build successfully
or not be enabled at all. Alternatively, we could investigate if the
driver should stop calling regulator_sync_voltage instead.

In cases where we have many IOs, the global load becomes low and the
load algorithm will decrease the requested P-State. Because of that,
the IOs overheads will increase and impact the IO performances.
To improve IO bound work, we can count the io-wait time as busy time
in calculating CPU busy.
This change uses get_cpu_iowait_time_us() to obtain the IO wait time value
and converts time into number of cycles spent waiting on IO at the TSC
rate. At the moment, this trick is only used for Atom.

The current function to calculate cpu utilization uses the average P-state
ratio (APerf/Mperf) scaled by the ratio of the current P-state to the
max available non-turbo one. This leads to an overestimation of
utilization which causes higher-performance P-states to be selected more
often and that leads to increased energy consumption.
This is a problem for low-power systems, so it is better to use a
different utilization calculation algorithm for them.
Namely, the Percent Busy value (or load) can be estimated as the ratio of the
MPERF counter that runs at a constant rate only during active periods (C0) to
the time stamp counter (TSC) that also runs (at the same rate) during idle.
That is:
Percent Busy = 100 * (delta_mperf / delta_tsc)
Use this algorithm for platforms with SoCs based on the Airmont and Silvermont
Atom cores.

Target systems using different cpus have different power and performance
requirements. They may use different algorithms to get the next P-state
based on their power or performance preference.
For example, power-constrained systems may not want to use
high-performance P-states as aggressively as a full-size desktop or a
server platform. A server platform may want to run close to the max to
achieve better performance, while laptop-like systems may prefer
sacrificing performance for longer battery lifes.
For the above reasons, modify intel_pstate to allow the target P-state
selection algorithm to be depend on the CPU ID.
