95235ca2c2 [CPUFREQ] CPU frequency display in /proc/cpuinfo
What is the value shown in "cpu MHz" of /proc/cpuinfo when CPUs are capable of
changing frequency?

Today the answer is: It depends.
On i386:
SMP kernel - It is always the boot frequency
UP kernel - Scales with the frequency change and shows that was last set.

On x86_64:
There is one single variable cpu_khz that gets written by all the CPUs. So,
the frequency set by last CPU will be seen on /proc/cpuinfo of all the
CPUs in the system. What you see also depends on whether you have constant_tsc
capable CPU or not.

On ia64:
It is always boot time frequency of a particular CPU that gets displayed.

The patch below changes this to:
Show the last known frequency of the particular CPU, when cpufreq is present. If
cpu doesnot support changing of frequency through cpufreq, then boot frequency
will be shown. The patch affects i386, x86_64 and ia64 architectures.

001893cda2 [PATCH] cpufreq_conservative/ondemand: invert meaning of 'ignore nice'
The use of the 'ignore_nice' sysfs file is confusing to anyone using it.
This removes the sysfs file 'ignore_nice' and in its place creates a
'ignore_nice_load' entry that defaults to '0'; meaning nice'd processes
_are_ counted towards the 'business' calculation.

WARNING: this obvious breaks any userland tools that expected ignore_nice'
to exist, to draw attention to this fact it was concluded on the mailing
list that the entry should be removed altogether so the userland app breaks
and so the author can build simple to detect workaround.  Having said that
it seems currently very few tools even make use of this functionality; all
I could find was a Gentoo Wiki entry.

a9d9baa1e8 [PATCH] clean up lock_cpu_hotplug() in cpufreq
There are some callers in cpufreq hotplug notify path that the lowest
function calls lock_cpu_hotplug().  The lock is already held during
cpu_up() and cpu_down() calls when the notify calls are broadcast to
registered clients.

Ideally if possible, we could disable_preempt() at the highest caller and
make sure we dont sleep in the path down in cpufreq->driver_target() calls
but the calls are so intertwined and cumbersome to cleanup.

Hence we consistently use lock_cpu_hotplug() and unlock_cpu_hotplug() in
all places.

 - Removed export of cpucontrol semaphore and made it static.
 - removed explicit uses of up/down with lock_cpu_hotplug()
   so we can keep track of the the callers in same thread context and
   just keep refcounts without calling a down() that causes a deadlock.
 - Removed current_in_hotplug() uses
 - Removed PF_HOTPLUG_CPU in sched.h introduced for the current_in_hotplug()
   temporary workaround.

Tested with insmod of cpufreq_stat.ko, and logical online/offline
to make sure we dont have any hang situations.

90d45d17f3 [PATCH] cpu hotplug: fix locking in cpufreq drivers
When calling target drivers to set frequency, we take cpucontrol lock.
When we modified the code to accomodate CPU hotplug, there was an attempt
to take a double lock of cpucontrol leading to a deadlock.  Since the
current thread context is already holding the cpucontrol lock, we dont need
to make another attempt to acquire it.

Now we leave a trace in current->flags indicating current thread already is
under cpucontrol lock held, so we dont attempt to do this another time.

Thanks to Andrew Morton for the beating:-)

c32b6b8e52 [PATCH] create and destroy cpufreq sysfs entries based on cpu notifiers
cpufreq entries in sysfs should only be populated when CPU is online state.
 When we either boot with maxcpus=x and then boot the other cpus by echoing
to sysfs online file, these entries should be created and destroyed when
CPU_DEAD is notified.  Same treatement as cache entries under sysfs.

We place the processor in the lowest frequency, so hw managed P-State
transitions can still work on the other threads to save power.

Primary goal was to just make these directories appear/disapper dynamically.

There is one in this patch i had to do, which i really dont like myself but
probably best if someone handling the cpufreq infrastructure could give
this code right treatment if this is not acceptable.  I guess its probably
good for the first cut.

- Converting lock_cpu_hotplug()/unlock_cpu_hotplug() to disable/enable preempt.
  The locking was smack in the middle of the notification path, when the
  hotplug is already holding the lock. I tried another solution to avoid this
  so avoid taking locks if we know we are from notification path. The solution
  was getting very ugly and i decided this was probably good for this iteration
  until someone who understands cpufreq could do a better job than me.

(akpm: export cpucontrol to GPL modules: drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_stats.c now
does lock_cpu_hotplug())

df8b59be09 [CPUFREQ] Avoid the ondemand cpufreq governor to use a too high frequency for stats.
The problem is in the ondemand governor, there is a periodic measurement
of the CPU usage. This CPU usage is updated by the scheduler after every
tick (basically, by adding 1 either to "idle" or to "user" or to
"system"). So if the frequency of the governor is too high, the stat
will be meaningless (as mostly no number have changed).

So this patch checks that the measurements are separated by at least 10
ticks. It means that by default, stats will have about 5% error (20
ticks). Of course those numbers can be argued but, IMHO, they look sane.
The patch also includes a small clean-up to check more explictly the
result of the conversion from ns to µs being null.

Let's note that (on x86) this has never been really needed before 2.6.13
because HZ was always 1000. Now that HZ can be 100, some CPU might be
affected by this problem. For instance when HZ=100, the centrino ,which
has a 10µs transition latency, would lead to the governor allowing to
read stats every tick (10ms)!

(200MHz IIRC)"; so AMD64 users would probably benefit from this too.
