[PATCH v3 1/2] cpufreq: Don't destroy/realloc policy/sysfs on hotplug/suspend

Saravana Kannan skannan at codeaurora.org
Tue Jul 15 15:47:52 PDT 2014


The CPUfreq core moves the cpufreq policy ownership between CPUs when CPUs
within a cluster (CPUs sharing same policy) go ONLINE/OFFLINE. When moving
policy ownership between CPUs, it also moves the cpufreq sysfs directory
between CPUs and also fixes up the symlinks of the other CPUs in the
cluster.

Also, when all the CPUs in a cluster go OFFLINE, all the sysfs nodes and
directories are deleted, the kobject is released and the policy is freed.
And when the first CPU in a cluster comes up, the policy is reallocated and
initialized, kobject is acquired, the sysfs nodes are created or symlinked,
etc.

All these steps end up creating unnecessarily complicated code and locking.
There's no real benefit to adding/removing/moving the sysfs nodes and the
policy between CPUs. Other per CPU sysfs directories like power and cpuidle
are left alone during hotplug. So there's some precedence to what this
patch is trying to do.

This patch simplifies a lot of the code and locking by removing the
adding/removing/moving of policy/sysfs/kobj and just leaves the cpufreq
directory and policy in place irrespective of whether the CPUs are
ONLINE/OFFLINE.

Leaving the policy, sysfs and kobject in place also brings these additional
benefits:
* Faster suspend/resume
* Faster hotplug
* Sysfs file permissions maintained across hotplug
* Policy settings and governor tunables maintained across hotplug
* Cpufreq stats would be maintained across hotplug for all CPUs and can be
  queried even after CPU goes OFFLINE
