Legacy Documentation of CPU Performance Scaling Drivers
=======================================================
Included below are historic documents describing assorted
:doc:`CPU performance scaling <cpufreq>` drivers. They are reproduced verbatim,
with the original white space formatting and indentation preserved, except for
the added leading space character in every line of text.
AMD PowerNow! Drivers
=====================
::
PowerNow! and Cool'n'Quiet are AMD names for frequency
management capabilities in AMD processors. As the hardware
implementation changes in new generations of the processors,
there is a different cpu-freq driver for each generation.
Note that the driver's will not load on the "wrong" hardware,
so it is safe to try each driver in turn when in doubt as to
which is the correct driver.
Note that the functionality to change frequency (and voltage)
is not available in all processors. The drivers will refuse
to load on processors without this capability. The capability
is detected with the cpuid instruction.
The drivers use BIOS supplied tables to obtain frequency and
voltage information appropriate for a particular platform.
Frequency transitions will be unavailable if the BIOS does
not supply these tables.
6th Generation: powernow-k6
7th Generation: powernow-k7: Athlon, Duron, Geode.
8th Generation: powernow-k8: Athlon, Athlon 64, Opteron, Sempron.
Documentation on this functionality in 8th generation processors
is available in the "BIOS and Kernel Developer's Guide", publication
26094, in chapter 9, available for download from www.amd.com.
BIOS supplied data, for powernow-k7 and for powernow-k8, may be
from either the PSB table or from ACPI objects. The ACPI support
is only available if the kernel config sets CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR.
The powernow-k8 driver will attempt to use ACPI if so configured,
and fall back to PST if that fails.
The powernow-k7 driver will try to use the PSB support first, and
fall back to ACPI if the PSB support fails. A module parameter,
acpi_force, is provided to force ACPI support to be used instead
of PSB support.
``cpufreq-nforce2``
===================
::
The cpufreq-nforce2 driver changes the FSB on nVidia nForce2 platforms.
This works better than on other platforms, because the FSB of the CPU
can be controlled independently from the PCI/AGP clock.
The module has two options:
fid: multiplier * 10 (for example 8.5 = 85)
min_fsb: minimum FSB
If not set, fid is calculated from the current CPU speed and the FSB.
min_fsb defaults to FSB at boot time - 50 MHz.
IMPORTANT: The available range is limited downwards!
Also the minimum available FSB can differ, for systems
booting with 200 MHz, 150 should always work.
``pcc-cpufreq``

1. Introduction:
----------------
Processor Clocking Control (PCC) is an interface between the platform
firmware and OSPM. It is a mechanism for coordinating processor
performance (ie: frequency) between the platform firmware and the OS.
The PCC driver (pcc-cpufreq) allows OSPM to take advantage of the PCC
interface.
OS utilizes the PCC interface to inform platform firmware what frequency the
OS wants for a logical processor. The platform firmware attempts to achieve
the requested frequency. If the request for the target frequency could not be
satisfied by platform firmware, then it usually means that power budget
conditions are in place, and "power capping" is taking place.
1.1 PCC interface:
------------------
The complete PCC specification is available here:
https://acpica.org/sites/acpica/files/Processor-Clocking-Control-v1p0.pdf
PCC relies on a shared memory region that provides a channel for communication
between the OS and platform firmware. PCC also implements a "doorbell" that
is used by the OS to inform the platform firmware that a command has been
sent.
The ACPI PCCH() method is used to discover the location of the PCC shared
memory region. The shared memory region header contains the "command" and
"status" interface. PCCH() also contains details on how to access the platform
doorbell.
The following commands are supported by the PCC interface:
* Get Average Frequency
* Set Desired Frequency
The ACPI PCCP() method is implemented for each logical processor and is
used to discover the offsets for the input and output buffers in the shared
memory region.
When PCC mode is enabled, the platform will not expose processor performance
or throttle states (_PSS, _TSS and related ACPI objects) to OSPM. Therefore,
the native P-state driver (such as acpi-cpufreq for Intel, powernow-k8 for
AMD) will not load.
However, OSPM remains in control of policy. The governor (eg: "ondemand")
computes the required performance for each processor based on server workload.
The PCC driver fills in the command interface, and the input buffer and
communicates the request to the platform firmware. The platform firmware is
responsible for delivering the requested performance.
Each PCC command is "global" in scope and can affect all the logical CPUs in
the system. Therefore, PCC is capable of performing "group" updates. With PCC
the OS is capable of getting/setting the frequency of all the logical CPUs in
the system with a single call to the BIOS.
1.1.1 Get Average Frequency:
----------------------------
This command is used by the OSPM to query the running frequency of the
processor since the last time this command was completed. The output buffer
indicates the average unhalted frequency of the logical processor expressed as
a percentage of the nominal (ie: maximum) CPU frequency. The output buffer
also signifies if the CPU frequency is limited by a power budget condition.
1.1.2 Set Desired Frequency:
----------------------------
This command is used by the OSPM to communicate to the platform firmware the
desired frequency for a logical processor. The output buffer is currently
ignored by OSPM. The next invocation of "Get Average Frequency" will inform
OSPM if the desired frequency was achieved or not.
1.2 Platforms affected:
-----------------------
The PCC driver will load on any system where the platform firmware:
* supports the PCC interface, and the associated PCCH() and PCCP() methods
* assumes responsibility for managing the hardware clocking controls in order
to deliver the requested processor performance
Currently, certain HP ProLiant platforms implement the PCC interface. On those
platforms PCC is the "default" choice.
However, it is possible to disable this interface via a BIOS setting. In
such an instance, as is also the case on platforms where the PCC interface
is not implemented, the PCC driver will fail to load silently.
2. Driver and /sys details:
---------------------------
When the driver loads, it merely prints the lowest and the highest CPU
frequencies supported by the platform firmware.
The PCC driver loads with a message such as:
pcc-cpufreq: (v1.00.00) driver loaded with frequency limits: 1600 MHz, 2933
MHz
This means that the OPSM can request the CPU to run at any frequency in
between the limits (1600 MHz, and 2933 MHz) specified in the message.
Internally, there is no need for the driver to convert the "target" frequency
to a corresponding P-state.
The VERSION number for the driver will be of the format v.xy.ab.
eg: 1.00.02
----- --
| |
| -- this will increase with bug fixes/enhancements to the driver
|-- this is the version of the PCC specification the driver adheres to
The following is a brief discussion on some of the fields exported via the
/sys filesystem and how their values are affected by the PCC driver:
2.1 scaling_available_frequencies:
----------------------------------
scaling_available_frequencies is not created in /sys. No intermediate
frequencies need to be listed because the BIOS will try to achieve any
frequency, within limits, requested by the governor. A frequency does not have
to be strictly associated with a P-state.
2.2 cpuinfo_transition_latency:
-------------------------------
The cpuinfo_transition_latency field is 0. The PCC specification does
not include a field to expose this value currently.
2.3 cpuinfo_cur_freq:
---------------------
A) Often cpuinfo_cur_freq will show a value different than what is declared
in the scaling_available_frequencies or scaling_cur_freq, or scaling_max_freq.
This is due to "turbo boost" available on recent Intel processors. If certain
conditions are met the BIOS can achieve a slightly higher speed than requested
by OSPM. An example:
scaling_cur_freq : 2933000
cpuinfo_cur_freq : 3196000
B) There is a round-off error associated with the cpuinfo_cur_freq value.
Since the driver obtains the current frequency as a "percentage" (%) of the
nominal frequency from the BIOS, sometimes, the values displayed by
scaling_cur_freq and cpuinfo_cur_freq may not match. An example:
scaling_cur_freq : 1600000
cpuinfo_cur_freq : 1583000
In this example, the nominal frequency is 2933 MHz. The driver obtains the
current frequency, cpuinfo_cur_freq, as 54% of the nominal frequency:
54% of 2933 MHz = 1583 MHz
Nominal frequency is the maximum frequency of the processor, and it usually
corresponds to the frequency of the P0 P-state.
2.4 related_cpus:
-----------------
The related_cpus field is identical to affected_cpus.
affected_cpus : 4
related_cpus : 4
Currently, the PCC driver does not evaluate _PSD. The platforms that support
PCC do not implement SW_ALL. So OSPM doesn't need to perform any coordination
to ensure that the same frequency is requested of all dependent CPUs.
3. Caveats:
-----------
The "cpufreq_stats" module in its present form cannot be loaded and
expected to work with the PCC driver. Since the "cpufreq_stats" module
provides information wrt each P-state, it is not applicable to the PCC driver.

3. Caveats
1. Introduction:
----------------
Processor Clocking Control (PCC) is an interface between the platform
firmware and OSPM. It is a mechanism for coordinating processor
performance (ie: frequency) between the platform firmware and the OS.
The PCC driver (pcc-cpufreq) allows OSPM to take advantage of the PCC
interface.
OS utilizes the PCC interface to inform platform firmware what frequency the
OS wants for a logical processor. The platform firmware attempts to achieve
the requested frequency. If the request for the target frequency could not be
satisfied by platform firmware, then it usually means that power budget
conditions are in place, and "power capping" is taking place.
1.1 PCC interface:
------------------
The complete PCC specification is available here:
http://www.acpica.org/download/Processor-Clocking-Control-v1p0.pdf
PCC relies on a shared memory region that provides a channel for communication
between the OS and platform firmware. PCC also implements a "doorbell" that
is used by the OS to inform the platform firmware that a command has been
sent.
The ACPI PCCH() method is used to discover the location of the PCC shared
memory region. The shared memory region header contains the "command" and
"status" interface. PCCH() also contains details on how to access the platform
doorbell.
The following commands are supported by the PCC interface:
* Get Average Frequency
* Set Desired Frequency
The ACPI PCCP() method is implemented for each logical processor and is
used to discover the offsets for the input and output buffers in the shared
memory region.
When PCC mode is enabled, the platform will not expose processor performance
or throttle states (_PSS, _TSS and related ACPI objects) to OSPM. Therefore,
the native P-state driver (such as acpi-cpufreq for Intel, powernow-k8 for
AMD) will not load.
However, OSPM remains in control of policy. The governor (eg: "ondemand")
computes the required performance for each processor based on server workload.
The PCC driver fills in the command interface, and the input buffer and
communicates the request to the platform firmware. The platform firmware is
responsible for delivering the requested performance.
Each PCC command is "global" in scope and can affect all the logical CPUs in
the system. Therefore, PCC is capable of performing "group" updates. With PCC
the OS is capable of getting/setting the frequency of all the logical CPUs in
the system with a single call to the BIOS.
1.1.1 Get Average Frequency:
----------------------------
This command is used by the OSPM to query the running frequency of the
processor since the last time this command was completed. The output buffer
indicates the average unhalted frequency of the logical processor expressed as
a percentage of the nominal (ie: maximum) CPU frequency. The output buffer
also signifies if the CPU frequency is limited by a power budget condition.
1.1.2 Set Desired Frequency:
----------------------------
This command is used by the OSPM to communicate to the platform firmware the
desired frequency for a logical processor. The output buffer is currently
ignored by OSPM. The next invocation of "Get Average Frequency" will inform
OSPM if the desired frequency was achieved or not.
1.2 Platforms affected:
-----------------------
The PCC driver will load on any system where the platform firmware:
* supports the PCC interface, and the associated PCCH() and PCCP() methods
* assumes responsibility for managing the hardware clocking controls in order
to deliver the requested processor performance
Currently, certain HP ProLiant platforms implement the PCC interface. On those
platforms PCC is the "default" choice.
However, it is possible to disable this interface via a BIOS setting. In
such an instance, as is also the case on platforms where the PCC interface
is not implemented, the PCC driver will fail to load silently.
2. Driver and /sys details:
---------------------------
When the driver loads, it merely prints the lowest and the highest CPU
frequencies supported by the platform firmware.
The PCC driver loads with a message such as:
pcc-cpufreq: (v1.00.00) driver loaded with frequency limits: 1600 MHz, 2933
MHz
This means that the OPSM can request the CPU to run at any frequency in
between the limits (1600 MHz, and 2933 MHz) specified in the message.
Internally, there is no need for the driver to convert the "target" frequency
to a corresponding P-state.
The VERSION number for the driver will be of the format v.xy.ab.
eg: 1.00.02
----- --
| |
| -- this will increase with bug fixes/enhancements to the driver
|-- this is the version of the PCC specification the driver adheres to
The following is a brief discussion on some of the fields exported via the
/sys filesystem and how their values are affected by the PCC driver:
2.1 scaling_available_frequencies:
----------------------------------
scaling_available_frequencies is not created in /sys. No intermediate
frequencies need to be listed because the BIOS will try to achieve any
frequency, within limits, requested by the governor. A frequency does not have
to be strictly associated with a P-state.
2.2 cpuinfo_transition_latency:
-------------------------------
The cpuinfo_transition_latency field is 0. The PCC specification does
not include a field to expose this value currently.
2.3 cpuinfo_cur_freq:
---------------------
A) Often cpuinfo_cur_freq will show a value different than what is declared
in the scaling_available_frequencies or scaling_cur_freq, or scaling_max_freq.
This is due to "turbo boost" available on recent Intel processors. If certain
conditions are met the BIOS can achieve a slightly higher speed than requested
by OSPM. An example:
scaling_cur_freq : 2933000
cpuinfo_cur_freq : 3196000
B) There is a round-off error associated with the cpuinfo_cur_freq value.
Since the driver obtains the current frequency as a "percentage" (%) of the
nominal frequency from the BIOS, sometimes, the values displayed by
scaling_cur_freq and cpuinfo_cur_freq may not match. An example:
scaling_cur_freq : 1600000
cpuinfo_cur_freq : 1583000
In this example, the nominal frequency is 2933 MHz. The driver obtains the
current frequency, cpuinfo_cur_freq, as 54% of the nominal frequency:
54% of 2933 MHz = 1583 MHz
Nominal frequency is the maximum frequency of the processor, and it usually
corresponds to the frequency of the P0 P-state.
2.4 related_cpus:
-----------------
The related_cpus field is identical to affected_cpus.
affected_cpus : 4
related_cpus : 4
Currently, the PCC driver does not evaluate _PSD. The platforms that support
PCC do not implement SW_ALL. So OSPM doesn't need to perform any coordination
to ensure that the same frequency is requested of all dependent CPUs.
3. Caveats:
-----------
The "cpufreq_stats" module in its present form cannot be loaded and
expected to work with the PCC driver. Since the "cpufreq_stats" module
provides information wrt each P-state, it is not applicable to the PCC driver.

* timeout: usec
* throughput: kbs (kilo bit / sec)
* memory bandwidth: mbs (mega bit / sec)
The latency unit used in the PM QoS framework is the microsecond (usec).
1. PM QoS framework
===================
The infrastructure exposes multiple misc device nodes one per implemented
parameter. The set of parameters implement is defined by pm_qos_power_init()
and pm_qos_params.h. This is done because having the available parameters
being runtime configurable or changeable from a driver was seen as too easy to
abuse.
A global list of CPU latency QoS requests is maintained along with an aggregated
(effective) target value. The aggregated target value is updated with changes
to the request list or elements of the list. For CPU latency QoS, the
aggregated target value is simply the min of the request values held in the list
elements.
For each parameter a list of performance requests is maintained along with
an aggregated target value. The aggregated target value is updated with
changes to the request list or elements of the list. Typically the
aggregated target value is simply the max or min of the request values held
in the parameter list elements.
Note: the aggregated target value is implemented as an atomic variable so that
reading the aggregated value does not require any locking mechanism.
From kernel space the use of this interface is simple:
From kernel mode the use of this interface is simple:
void cpu_latency_qos_add_request(handle, target_value):
Will insert an element into the CPU latency QoS list with the target value.
Upon change to this list the new target is recomputed and any registered
notifiers are called only if the target value is now different.
Clients of PM QoS need to save the returned handle for future use in other
PM QoS API functions.
void pm_qos_add_request(handle, param_class, target_value):
Will insert an element into the list for that identified PM QoS class with the
target value. Upon change to this list the new target is recomputed and any
registered notifiers are called only if the target value is now different.

void cpu_latency_qos_update_request(handle, new_target_value):
Will update the list element pointed to by the handle with the new target
value and recompute the new aggregated target, calling the notification tree
if the target is changed.
void pm_qos_remove_request(handle):
void cpu_latency_qos_remove_request(handle):
Will remove the element. After removal it will update the aggregate target
and call the notification tree if the target was changed as a result of
removing the request.
int pm_qos_request(param_class):
Returns the aggregated value for a given PM QoS class.
int cpu_latency_qos_limit():
Returns the aggregated value for the CPU latency QoS.
int pm_qos_request_active(handle):
Returns if the request is still active, i.e. it has not been removed from a
PM QoS class constraints list.
int cpu_latency_qos_request_active(handle):
Returns if the request is still active, i.e. it has not been removed from the
CPU latency QoS list.
int pm_qos_add_notifier(param_class, notifier):
Adds a notification callback function to the PM QoS class. The callback is
called when the aggregated value for the PM QoS class is changed.
int cpu_latency_qos_add_notifier(notifier):
Adds a notification callback function to the CPU latency QoS. The callback is
called when the aggregated value for the CPU latency QoS is changed.
int pm_qos_remove_notifier(int param_class, notifier):
Removes the notification callback function for the PM QoS class.
int cpu_latency_qos_remove_notifier(notifier):
Removes the notification callback function from the CPU latency QoS.
From user mode:
From user space:
Only processes can register a pm_qos request. To provide for automatic
The infrastructure exposes one device node, /dev/cpu_dma_latency, for the CPU
latency QoS.
Only processes can register a PM QoS request. To provide for automatic
cleanup of a process, the interface requires the process to register its
parameter requests in the following way:
parameter requests as follows.
To register the default pm_qos target for the specific parameter, the process
must open /dev/cpu_dma_latency
To register the default PM QoS target for the CPU latency QoS, the process must
open /dev/cpu_dma_latency.
As long as the device node is held open that process has a registered
request on the parameter.
To change the requested target value the process needs to write an s32 value to
the open device node. Alternatively the user mode program could write a hex
string for the value using 10 char long format e.g. "0x12345678". This
translates to a pm_qos_update_request call.
To change the requested target value, the process needs to write an s32 value to
the open device node. Alternatively, it can write a hex string for the value
using the 10 char long format e.g. "0x12345678". This translates to a
cpu_latency_qos_update_request() call.
To remove the user mode request for a target value simply close the device
node.
