From e43dcf20215f0287ea113102617ca04daa76b70e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" Date: Thu, 10 Oct 2019 23:36:15 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] cpuidle: teo: Consider hits and misses metrics of disabled states The TEO governor uses idle duration "bins" defined in accordance with the CPU idle states table provided by the driver, so that each "bin" covers the idle duration range between the target residency of the idle state corresponding to it and the target residency of the closest deeper idle state. The governor collects statistics for each bin regardless of whether or not the idle state corresponding to it is currently enabled. In particular, the "hits" and "misses" metrics measure the likelihood of a situation in which both the time till the next timer (sleep length) and the idle duration measured after wakeup fall into the given bin. Namely, if the "hits" value is greater than the "misses" one, that situation is more likely than the one in which the sleep length falls into the given bin, but the idle duration measured after wakeup falls into a bin corresponding to one of the shallower idle states. If the idle state corresponding to the given bin is disabled, it cannot be selected and if it turns out to be the one that should be selected, a shallower idle state needs to be used instead of it. Nevertheless, the metrics collected for the bin corresponding to it are still valid and need to be taken into account as though that state had not been disabled. For this reason, make teo_select() always use the "hits" and "misses" values of the idle duration range that the sleep length falls into even if the specific idle state corresponding to it is disabled and if the "hits" values is greater than the "misses" one, select the closest enabled shallower idle state in that case.
