On modern Intel platforms, the intel_pstate driver is commonly used and
it provides turbo boost control via
/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/no_turbo.
However, cpupower doesn't handle this. it
1. shows turbo boost as "active" blindly for Intel platforms
2. controls turbo boost functionality via the generic
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost sysfs interface only.
Enhance the cpupower tool to ensure the "--boost" command works
seamlessly on Intel platforms with intel_pstate driver running.

cpupower currently installs a cpupower.service unit file into unitdir
unconditionally, regardless of whether systemd is used by the host.
Improve the installation procedure by making this systemd step optional:
a 'SYSTEMD' build parameter that defaults to 'true' and can be set to
'false' to disable the installation of systemd's unit file.
Since 'SYSTEMD' defaults to true, the current behavior is kept as the
default.

The cpuidle sysfs monitor printed the previous sample’s counter
value in cpuidle_stop() instead of the freshly read one. The dprint
line used previous_count[cpu][state] while current_count[cpu][state]
had just been populated. This caused misleading debug output.
Switch the logging to current_count so the post-interval snapshot
matches the displayed value.

The cpupower Makefile built and installed libcpupower as a shared
library (libcpupower.so) without passing `STATIC=true`, but did not
build a static version of the library even with `STATIC=true`. (Only the
programs were static). Thus, out-of-tree programs using libcpupower
were unable to link statically against the library without having access
to intermediate object files produced during the build.
This fixes that situation by ensuring that libcpupower.a is built and
installed when `STATIC=true` is specified.

Fix incorrect size parameter passed to cpuidle_state_write_file() in
cpuidle_state_disable().
The function was incorrectly using sizeof(disable) which returns the
size of the unsigned int variable (4 bytes) instead of the actual
length of the string stored in the 'value' buffer.
Since 'value' is populated with snprintf() to contain the string
representation of the disable value, we should use the length
returned by snprintf() to get the correct string length for
writing to the sysfs file.
This ensures the correct number of bytes is written to the cpuidle
state disable file in sysfs.

The cpupower_write_sysfs() function currently returns -1 on
write failure, but the function signature indicates it should
return an unsigned int. Returning -1 from an unsigned function
results in a large positive value rather than indicating
an error condition.
Fix this by returning 0 on failure, which is more appropriate
for an unsigned return type and maintains consistency with typical
success/failure semantics where 0 indicates failure and non-zero
indicates success (bytes written).

The cpufreq subsystem has a generic sysfs interface for controlling boost
(/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/boost).
The sysfs interface can be used to enable boost control from the cpupower
command on non-x86 platforms as well. So, allow boost controlling
on non-x86 system if boost sysfs file exists.
The set subcommand enables/disables the boost feature using the following
syntax:
cpupower set --boost 1
cpupower set --boost 0
The --boost option is an alias for --turbo-boost. We provided the neutral
option name because the name "turbo boost" is specific to Intel technology.
The frequency-info subcommand displays the enabled/disabled state of
the boost feature as follows:
boost state support:

compile_commands.json can be used with clangd to enable language server
protocol-based assistance. For kernel itself this can be built with
scripts/gen_compile_commands.py, but other projects (e.g., libbpf, or
BPF selftests) can benefit from their own compilation database file,
which can be generated successfully using external tools, like bear [0].
So, instead of adding compile_commands.json to .gitignore in respective
individual projects, let's just ignore it globally anywhere in Linux repo.
While at it, remove exactly such a local .gitignore rule under
tools/power/cpupower.

After the commit 0014f65e3d ("pm: cpupower: remove hard-coded
topology depth values"), "cpupower monitor" output ceased to print the
CORE and the CPU fields on a multi-socket platform.
The reason for this is that the patch changed the behaviour to break
out of the switch-case after printing the PKG details, while prior to
the patch, the CORE and the CPU details would also get printed since
the "if" condition check would pass for any level whose topology depth
was lesser than that of a package.
Fix this ensuring all the details below a desired topology depth are
printed in the cpupower monitor output.

In the function mperf_start(), mperf_monitor snapshots the time, tsc
and finally the aperf,mperf MSRs. However, this order of snapshotting
in is reversed in mperf_stop(). As a result, the C0 residency (which
is computed as delta_mperf * 100 / delta_tsc) is under-reported on
CPUs that is 100% busy.
Fix this by snapshotting time, tsc and then aperf,mperf in
mperf_stop() in the same order as in mperf_start().

One of the most typical use cases of the 'cpupower' utility works as
follows: run 'cpupower' at boot with the desired command-line options
and then forget about it.
Add a systemd service (disabled by default) that automates this use
case (for environments where the initialization system is 'systemd'),
by running 'cpupower' at boot with the settings read from a default
configuration file.
The systemd service, the associated support script and the
corresponding default configuration file are derived from what is
provided by the Arch Linux package (under "GPL-2.0-or-later" terms),
modernized and enhanced in various ways (the script has also been
checked with 'shellcheck').

Inspiration was taken from psutil to implement this by querying
core_cpu_list. Instead of using a hashmap, I used a sorted array, and
counted the number of valid unique strings. The counting of this takes
place before the qsort for .pkg as the following code says it is
dependent on the order of that sort.
The previous code claimed Intel CPUs are not numbered correctly. I was
not able to reproduce that issue and removed that comment and the code.

changes TSC counter reads per cpu, but left time diff global (from start
