From user space, there is no way to know the target residency for each idle
state. If we want to write tools to measure the accuracy of the idle state
selection from the governor, we need this info.
As the exit latency is exported through sysfs, exporting the target residency
in the same place makes sense.

Pull ACPI and power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
"The majority of this material spent some time in linux-next, some of
it even several weeks. There are a few relatively fresh commits in
it, but they are mostly fixes and simple cleanups.
ACPI took the lead this time, both in terms of the number of commits
and the number of modified lines of code, cpufreq follows and there
are a few changes in the PM core and in cpuidle too.
A new feature that already got some LWN.net's attention is the device
PM QoS extension allowing latency tolerance requirements to be
propagated from leaf devices to their ancestors with hardware
interfaces for specifying latency tolerance. That should help systems
with hardware-driven power management to avoid going too far with it
in cases when there are latency tolerance constraints.
There also are some significant changes in the ACPI core related to
the way in which hotplug notifications are handled. They affect PCI
hotplug (ACPIPHP) and the ACPI dock station code too. The bottom line
is that all those notification now go through the root notify handler
and are propagated to the interested subsystems by means of callbacks
instead of having to install a notify handler for each device object
that we can potentially get hotplug notifications for.
In addition to that ACPICA will now advertise "Windows 2013"
compatibility for _OSI, because some systems out there don't work
correctly if that is not done (some of them don't even boot).
On the system suspend side of things, all of the device suspend and
resume callbacks, except for ->prepare() and ->complete(), are now
going to be executed asynchronously as that turns out to speed up
system suspend and resume on some platforms quite significantly and we
have a few more optimizations in that area.
Apart from that, there are some new device IDs and fixes and cleanups
all over. In particular, the system suspend and resume handling by
cpufreq should be improved and the cpuidle menu governor should be a
bit more robust now.
Specifics:
- Device PM QoS support for latency tolerance constraints on systems
with hardware interfaces allowing such constraints to be specified.
That is necessary to prevent hardware-driven power management from
becoming overly aggressive on some systems and to prevent power
management features leading to excessive latencies from being used
in some cases.
- Consolidation of the handling of ACPI hotplug notifications for
device objects. This causes all device hotplug notifications to go
through the root notify handler (that was executed for all of them
anyway before) that propagates them to individual subsystems, if
necessary, by executing callbacks provided by those subsystems
(those callbacks are associated with struct acpi_device objects
during device enumeration). As a result, the code in question
becomes both smaller in size and more straightforward and all of
those changes should not affect users.
- ACPICA update, including fixes related to the handling of _PRT in
cases when it is broken and the addition of "Windows 2013" to the
list of supported "features" for _OSI (which is necessary to
support systems that work incorrectly or don't even boot without
it). Changes from Bob Moore and Lv Zheng.

As described by a comment at the end of cpuidle_enter_state_coupled it
can be inefficient for coupled idle states to return with IRQs enabled
since they may proceed to service an interrupt instead of clearing the
coupled idle state. Until they have finished & cleared the idle state
all CPUs coupled with them will spin rather than being able to enter a
safe idle state.
Commits e1689795a7 "cpuidle: Add common time keeping and irq
enabling" and 554c06ba3e "cpuidle: remove en_core_tk_irqen flag" led
to the cpuidle_enter_state enabling interrupts for all idle states,
including coupled ones, making this inefficiency unavoidable by drivers
& the local_irq_enable near the end of cpuidle_enter_state_coupled
redundant. This patch avoids enabling interrupts in cpuidle_enter_state
after a coupled state has been entered, allowing them to remain disabled
until all coupled CPUs have exited the idle state and
cpuidle_enter_state_coupled re-enables them.

In order to allow better integration between the cpuidle framework and the

facilitate this integration by moving part of the cpuidle code in the idle
task file and, because idle.c is in the sched directory, we have access to
the scheduler's private structures.
This patch splits the cpuidle_idle_call main entry function into 3 calls
to a newly added API:
1. select the idle state
2. enter the idle state
3. reflect the idle state
The cpuidle_idle_call calls these three functions to implement the main

The menu governor performance multiplier defines a minimum predicted
idle duration to latency ratio. Instead of checking this separately
in every iteration of the state selection loop, adjust the overall
latency restriction for the whole loop if this restriction is tighter
than what is set by the QoS subsystem.
The original test
s->exit_latency * multiplier > data->predicted_us
becomes
s->exit_latency > data->predicted_us / multiplier
by dividing both sides of the comparison by "multiplier".
While division is likely to be several times slower than multiplication,
the minor performance hit allows making a generic sleep state selection
function based on (sleep duration, maximum latency) tuple.

The menu governor statistics update function tries to determine the
amount of time between entry to low power state and the occurrence
of the wakeup event. However, the time measured by the framework
includes exit latency on top of the desired value. This exit latency
is substracted from the measured value to obtain the desired value.
When measured value is not available, the menu governor assumes
the wakeup was caused by the timer and the time is equal to remaining
timer length. No exit latency should be substracted from this value.
This patch prevents the erroneous substraction and clarifies the
associated comment. It also removes one intermediate variable that
serves no purpose.

The menu governor uses coefficients as one method of actual idle
period length estimation. The coefficients are, as detailed below,
multipliers giving expected idle period length from time until next
timer expiry. The multipliers are supposed to have domain of (0..1].
The coefficients are fractions where only the numerators are stored
and denominators are a shared constant RESOLUTION*DECAY. Since the
value of the coefficient should always be greater than 0 and less
than or equal to 1, the numerator must have a value greater than
0 and less than or equal to RESOLUTION*DECAY.
If the coefficients are updated with measured idle durations exceeding
timer length, the multiplier may reach values exceeding unity (i.e.
the stored numerator exceeds RESOLUTION*DECAY). This patch ensures that
the multipliers are updated with durations capped to timer length.

Currently menu governor records the exit latency of the state it has
chosen for the idle period. The stored latency value is then later
used to calculate the actual length of the idle period. This value
may however be incorrect, as the entered state may not be the one
chosen by the governor. The entered state information is available,
so we can use that to obtain the real exit latency.

The field expected_us is used to store the time remaining until next

remaining until any wakeup source being active.

The name __smp_call_function_single() doesn't tell much about the
properties of this function, especially when compared to
smp_call_function_single().
The comments above the implementation are also misleading. The main
point of this function is actually not to be able to embed the csd
in an object. This is actually a requirement that result from the
purpose of this function which is to raise an IPI asynchronously.
As such it can be called with interrupts disabled. And this feature
comes at the cost of the caller who then needs to serialize the
IPIs on this csd.
Lets rename the function and enhance the comments so that they reflect
these properties.

The main point of calling __smp_call_function_single() is to send
an IPI in a pure asynchronous way. By embedding a csd in an object,
a caller can send the IPI without waiting for a previous one to complete
as is required by smp_call_function_single() for example. As such,
sending this kind of IPI can be safe even when irqs are disabled.
This flexibility comes at the expense of the caller who then needs to
synchronize the csd lifecycle by himself and make sure that IPIs on a
single csd are serialized.
This is how __smp_call_function_single() works when wait = 0 and this
usecase is relevant.
Now there don't seem to be any usecase with wait = 1 that can't be
covered by smp_call_function_single() instead, which is safer. Lets look
at the two possible scenario:
1) The user calls __smp_call_function_single(wait = 1) on a csd embedded
in an object. It looks like a nice and convenient pattern at the first
sight because we can then retrieve the object from the IPI handler easily.
But actually it is a waste of memory space in the object since the csd
can be allocated from the stack by smp_call_function_single(wait = 1)
and the object can be passed an the IPI argument.
Besides that, embedding the csd in an object is more error prone
because the caller must take care of the serialization of the IPIs
for this csd.
2) The user calls __smp_call_function_single(wait = 1) on a csd that
is allocated on the stack. It's ok but smp_call_function_single()
can do it as well and it already takes care of the allocation on the
stack. Again it's more simple and less error prone.
Therefore, using the underscore prepend API version with wait = 1
is a bad pattern and a sign that the caller can do safer and more
simple.
There was a single user of that which has just been converted.
So lets remove this option to discourage further users.
