I think in an initial comment I mentioned you should store either highest_perf or nominal_perf, depending on whether boost is supported/enabled, but using highest_perf in all cases might be best. The only difference is when boost is supported but not enabled, which means the OS's requests will be capped to nominal_perf, but FW/HW could still give as much as highest_perf. Even if FW/HW never does exceed nominal_perf, there are mechanisms in the scheduler (after Vincent's PELT rewrite) that ensure utilization can still reach 1024. So if you always use highest_perf in cppc_scale_freq_workfn(), you should not need to store max_freq. > +}; > + > +static DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct cppc_freq_invariance, cppc_f_i); > + nit: I would like s/cppc_f_i/cppc_freq_inv better > struct cppc_workaround_oem_info { > char oem_id[ACPI_OEM_ID_SIZE + 1];

Because reading CPPC counters should be possible from any CPU, for any CPU. So as long as we take the CPU ID on the tick and pass it to the worker, that work does not have to specifically run on that CPU. Eliminating this restriction could speed up things.

If counters are not supported (reading the registers returns 0, for example), I think it might be best to cppc_freq_invariance_exit(). If they read 0 and we ignore this, we might end up doing all that work on the tick without any benefit, as we'd always use desired_perf instead of a current performance value obtained from counters. > + } > + > + /* Register for freq-invariance */ > + topology_set_scale_freq_source(&cppc_sftd, cpu_present_mask); > +} > + > static int __init cppc_cpufreq_init(void) > { > + int ret; > + > if ((acpi_disabled) || !acpi_cpc_valid()) > return -ENODEV; > > @@ -521,7 +671,11 @@ static int __init cppc_cpufreq_init(void) > > cppc_check_hisi_workaround(); > > - return cpufreq_register_driver(&cppc_cpufreq_driver); > + ret = cpufreq_register_driver(&cppc_cpufreq_driver); > + if (!ret) > + cppc_freq_invariance_init(); Should there be a way to disable this? I'm only thinking about the fact that reading some of these counters could be very expensive, and doing it for a large number of CPUs, every few ms on the tick, might be a cost that some platforms might now want to pay for the benefit of having somewhat more accurate FIE support.
