CPUIDLE + * provides us this duration in the "target_residency" field. So all that we + * need is a good prediction of how long we'll be idle. Like the traditional + * menu governor, we start with the actual known "next timer event" time. + * + * Since there are other source of wakeups (interrupts for example) than + * the next timer event, this estimation is rather optimistic. To get a + * more realistic estimate, a correction factor is applied to the estimate, + * that is based on historic behavior. For example, if in the past the actual + * duration always was 50% of the next timer tick, the correction factor will + * be 0.5. + * + * menu uses a running average for this correction factor, however it uses a + * set of factors, not just a single factor. This stems from the realization + * that the ratio is dependent on the order of magnitude of the expected + * duration; if we expect 500 milliseconds of idle time the likelihood of + * getting an interrupt very early is much higher than if we expect 50 micro + * seconds of idle time. A second independent factor that has big impact on + * the actual factor is if there is (disk) IO outstanding or not. + * (as a special twist, we consider every sleep longer than 50 milliseconds + * as perfect; there are no power gains for sleeping longer than this) + * + * For these two reasons we keep an array of 12 independent factors, that gets + * indexed based on the magnitude of the expected duration as well as the + * "is IO outstanding" property. + * + * Repeatable-interval-detector + * ---------------------------- + * There are some cases where "next timer" is a completely unusable predictor: + * Those cases where the interval is fixed, for example due to hardware + * interrupt mitigation, but also due to fixed transfer rate devices such as + * mice. + * For this, we use a different predictor: We track the duration of the last 8 + * intervals and if the stand deviation of these 8 intervals is below a + * threshold value, we use the average of these intervals as prediction. + * + * Limiting Performance Impact + * --------------------------- + * C states, especially those with large exit latencies, can have a real + * noticeable impact on workloads, which is not acceptable for most sysadmins, + * and in addition, less performance has a power price of its own. + * + * As a general rule of thumb, menu assumes that the following heuristic + * holds: + * The busier the system, the less impact of C states is acceptable + * + * This rule-of-thumb is implemented using a performance-multiplier: + * If the exit latency times the performance multiplier is longer than + * the predicted duration, the C state is not considered a candidate + * for selection due to a too high performance impact. So the higher + * this multiplier is, the longer we need to be idle to pick a deep C + * state, and thus the less likely a busy CPU will hit such a deep + * C state. + * + * Two factors are used in determing this multiplier: + * a value of 10 is added for each point of "per cpu load average" we have. + * a value of 5 points is added for each process that is waiting for + * IO on this CPU. + * (these values are experimentally determined) + * + * The load average factor gives a longer term (few seconds) input to the + * decision, while the iowait value gives a cpu local instantanious input. + * The iowait factor may look low, but realize that this is also already + * represented in the system load average. + * + */ + +struct menu_device { + int last_state_idx; + int needs_update; + + unsigned int next_timer_us; + unsigned int predicted_us; + unsigned int bucket; + unsigned int correction_factor[BUCKETS]; + unsigned int intervals[INTERVALS]; + int interval_ptr; +}; + + +#define LOAD_INT(x) ((x) >> FSHIFT) +#define LOAD_FRAC(x) LOAD_INT(((x) & (FIXED_1-1)) * 100) + +static inline int get_loadavg(unsigned long load) +{ + return LOAD_INT(load) * 10 + LOAD_FRAC(load) / 10; +} + +static inline int which_bucket(unsigned int duration, unsigned long nr_iowaiters) +{ + int bucket = 0; + + /* + * We keep two groups of stats; one with no + * IO pending, one without. + * This allows us to calculate + * E(duration)|iowait + */ + if (nr_iowaiters) + bucket = BUCKETS/2; + + if (duration < 10) + return bucket; + if (duration < 100) + return bucket + 1; + if (duration < 1000) + return bucket + 2; + if (duration < 10000) + return bucket + 3; + if (duration < 100000) + return bucket + 4; + return bucket + 5; +} + +/* + * Return a multiplier for the exit latency that is intended + * to take performance requirements into account. + * The more performance critical we estimate the system + * to be, the higher this multiplier, and thus the higher + * the barrier to go to an expensive C state. + */ +static inline int performance_multiplier(unsigned long nr_iowaiters, unsigned long load) +{ + int mult = 1; + + /* for higher loadavg, we are more reluctant */ + + mult += 2 * get_loadavg(load); + + /* for IO wait tasks (per cpu!) we add 5x each */ + mult += 10 * nr_iowaiters; + + return mult; +} + +static DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct menu_device, menu_devices); + +static void menu_update(struct cpuidle_driver *drv, struct cpuidle_device *dev); + +/* + * Try detecting repeating patterns by keeping track of the last 8 + * intervals, and checking if the standard deviation of that set + * of points is below a threshold.
