[ Upstream commit 9c0b4bb7f6303c9c4e2e34984c46f5a86478f84d ]
The current method to take into account uclamp hints when estimating the target frequency can end in a situation where the selected target frequency is finally higher than uclamp hints, whereas there are no real needs. Such cases mainly happen because we are currently mixing the traditional scheduler utilization signal with the uclamp performance hints. By adding these 2 metrics, we loose an important information when it comes to select the target frequency, and we have to make some assumptions which can't fit all cases.
Rework the interface between the scheduler and schedutil governor in order to propagate all information down to the cpufreq governor.
effective_cpu_util() interface changes and now returns the actual utilization of the CPU with 2 optional inputs:
- The minimum performance for this CPU; typically the capacity to handle the deadline task and the interrupt pressure. But also uclamp_min request when available.
- The maximum targeting performance for this CPU which reflects the maximum level that we would like to not exceed. By default it will be the CPU capacity but can be reduced because of some performance hints set with uclamp. The value can be lower than actual utilization and/or min performance level.
A new sugov_effective_cpu_perf() interface is also available to compute the final performance level that is targeted for the CPU, after applying some cpufreq headroom and taking into account all inputs.
With these 2 functions, schedutil is now able to decide when it must go above uclamp hints. It now also has a generic way to get the min performance level.
The dependency between energy model and cpufreq governor and its headroom policy doesn't exist anymore.
eenv_pd_max_util() asks schedutil for the targeted performance after applying the impact of the waking task.
