The Frequency Invariance Engine (FIE) is providing a frequency scaling
correction factor that helps achieve more accurate load-tracking.
Normally, this scaling factor can be obtained directly with the help of
the cpufreq drivers as they know the exact frequency the hardware is
running at. But that isn't the case for CPPC cpufreq driver.
Another way of obtaining that is using the arch specific counter
support, which is already present in kernel, but that hardware is
optional for platforms.
This patch updates the CPPC driver to register itself with the topology
core to provide its own implementation (cppc_scale_freq_tick()) of
topology_scale_freq_tick() which gets called by the scheduler on every
tick. Note that the arch specific counters have higher priority than
CPPC counters, if available, though the CPPC driver doesn't need to have
any special handling for that.
On an invocation of cppc_scale_freq_tick(), we schedule an irq work
(since we reach here from hard-irq context), which then schedules a
normal work item and cppc_scale_freq_workfn() updates the per_cpu
arch_freq_scale variable based on the counter updates since the last
tick.
To allow platforms to disable this CPPC counter-based frequency
invariance support, this is all done under CONFIG_ACPI_CPPC_CPUFREQ_FIE,
which is enabled by default.
This also exports sched_setattr_nocheck() as the CPPC driver can be
built as a module.

Currently topology_scale_freq_tick() (which gets called from
scheduler_tick()) may end up using a pointer to "struct
scale_freq_data", which was previously cleared by
topology_clear_scale_freq_source(), as there is no protection in place
here. The users of topology_clear_scale_freq_source() though needs a
guarantee that the previously cleared scale_freq_data isn't used
anymore, so they can free the related resources.
Since topology_scale_freq_tick() is called from scheduler tick, we don't
want to add locking in there. Use the RCU update mechanism instead
(which is already used by the scheduler's utilization update path) to
guarantee race free updates here.
synchronize_rcu() makes sure that all RCU critical sections that started
before it is called, will finish before it returns. And so the callers
of topology_clear_scale_freq_source() don't need to worry about their
callback getting called anymore.

Commit 367dc4aa93 ("cpufreq: Add stop CPU callback to cpufreq_driver
interface") added the ->stop_cpu() callback to allow the drivers to do
clean up before the CPU is completely down and its state can't be
modified.
At that time the CPU hotplug framework used to call the cpufreq core's
registered notifier for different events like CPU_DOWN_PREPARE and
CPU_POST_DEAD. The ->stop_cpu() callback was called during the
CPU_DOWN_PREPARE event.
This is no longer the case, cpuhp_cpufreq_offline() is called only
once by the CPU hotplug core now and we don't really need two
separate callbacks for cpufreq drivers, i.e. ->stop_cpu() and
-<exit(), as everything can be done from the ->exit() callback
itself.
Migrate to using the ->exit() callback instead of ->stop_cpu().

"Time and clocksource/clockevent related updates:
Core changes:
- Infrastructure to support per CPU "broadcast" devices for per CPU
clockevent devices which stop in deep idle states. This allows us
to utilize the more efficient architected timer on certain ARM SoCs
for normal operation instead of permanentely using the slow to
access SoC specific clockevent device.
- Print the name of the broadcast/wakeup device in /proc/timer_list
- Make the clocksource watchdog more robust against delays between
reading the current active clocksource and the watchdog
clocksource. Such delays can be caused by NMIs, SMIs and vCPU
preemption.
Handle this by reading the watchdog clocksource twice, i.e. before
and after reading the current active clocksource. In case that the
two watchdog reads shows an excessive time delta, the read sequence
is repeated up to 3 times.
- Improve the debug output and add a test module for the watchdog
mechanism.
- Reimplementation of the venerable time64_to_tm() function with a
faster and significantly smaller version. Straight from the source,
i.e. the author of the related research paper contributed this!

Pull btrfs updates from David Sterba:
"A normal mix of improvements, core changes and features that user have
been missing or complaining about.
User visible changes:
- new sysfs exports:
- add sysfs knob to limit scrub IO bandwidth per device
- device stats are also available in
/sys/fs/btrfs/FSID/devinfo/DEVID/error_stats
- support cancellable resize and device delete ioctls
- change how the empty value is interpreted when setting a property,
so far we have only 'btrfs.compression' and we need to distinguish
a reset to defaults and setting "do not compress", in general the
empty value will always mean 'reset to defaults' for any other
property, for compression it's either 'no' or 'none' to forbid
compression
Performance improvements:
- no need for full sync when truncation does not touch extents,
reported run time change is -12%
- avoid unnecessary logging of xattrs during fast fsyncs (+17%
throughput, -17% runtime on xattr stress workload)
Core:
- preemptive flushing improvements and fixes
- adjust clamping logic on multi-threaded workloads to avoid
flushing too soon
- take into account global block reserve, may help on almost full
filesystems
- continue flushing when there are enough pending delalloc and
ordered bytes
- simplify logic around conditional transaction commit, a workaround
used in the past for throttling that's been superseded by ticket
reservations that manage the throttling in a better way
- subpage blocksize preparation:
- submit read time repair only for each corrupted sector
- scrub repair now works with sectors and not pages
- free space cache (v1) works with sectors and not pages
- more fine grained bio tracking for extents
- subpage support in page callbacks, extent callbacks, end io
callbacks
- simplify transaction abort logic and always abort and don't check
various potentially unreliable stats tracked by the transaction
- exclusive operations can do more checks when started and allow eg.
cancellation of the same running operation
- ensure relocation never runs while we have send operations running,
e.g. when zoned background auto reclaim starts
Fixes:
- zoned: more sanity checks of write pointer
- improve error handling in delayed inodes
- send:
- fix invalid path for unlink operations after parent
orphanization
- fix crash when memory allocations trigger reclaim
- skip compression of we have only one page (can't make things
better)
- empty value of a property newly means reset to default
Other:

Pull integrity subsystem updates from Mimi Zohar:
"The large majority of the changes are EVM portable & immutable
signature related: removing a dependency on loading an HMAC key,
safely allowing file metadata included in the EVM portable & immutable
signatures to be modified, allowing EVM signatures to fulfill IMA file
signature policy requirements, including the EVM file metadata
signature in lieu of an IMA file data signature in the measurement

In addition, in order to detect critical data or file change
reversions, duplicate measurement records are permitted in the IMA
measurement list.

Pull arm64 updates from Will Deacon:
"There's a reasonable amount here and the juicy details are all below.
It's worth noting that the MTE/KASAN changes strayed outside of our
usual directories due to core mm changes and some associated changes
to some other architectures; Andrew asked for us to carry these [1]
rather that take them via the -mm tree.
Summary:
- Optimise SVE switching for CPUs with 128-bit implementations.
- Fix output format from SVE selftest.
- Add support for versions v1.2 and 1.3 of the SMC calling
convention.
- Allow Pointer Authentication to be configured independently for
kernel and userspace.
- PMU driver cleanups for managing IRQ affinity and exposing event
attributes via sysfs.
- KASAN optimisations for both hardware tagging (MTE) and out-of-line
software tagging implementations.
- Relax frame record alignment requirements to facilitate 8-byte
alignment with KASAN and Clang.
- Cleanup of page-table definitions and removal of unused memory
types.
- Reduction of ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN back to 64 bytes.
- Refactoring of our instruction decoding routines and addition of
some missing encodings.
- Move entry code moved into C and hardened against harmful compiler
instrumentation.
- Update booting requirements for the FEAT_HCX feature, added to v8.7
of the architecture.
- Fix resume from idle when pNMI is being used.
- Additional CPU sanity checks for MTE and preparatory changes for
systems where not all of the CPUs support 32-bit EL0.
- Update our kernel string routines to the latest Cortex Strings
implementation.
- Big cleanup of our cache maintenance routines, which were
confusingly named and inconsistent in their implementations.
- Tweak linker flags so that GDB can understand vmlinux when using
RELR relocations.
- Boot path cleanups to enable early initialisation of per-cpu
operations needed by KCSAN.
- Non-critical fixes and miscellaneous cleanup"
