The information about idle state of shared resources(Cache, interconnect ...) which cannot be deduced from the cpuidle stats is quite useful. We can use this to analyze newer workloads and to explain their power consumption, especially as the amount of time some of these shared resources spends in different LPI states can be influenced by changes to workload, kernel or firmware. And for auto promote-able states this is the only way to capture idle stats. Regarding 2, since these stats are clearly defined by ACPI spec and maintained by platform, I think it is reasonable to expect them to be accurate. If it is not accurate, it is likely that platform is breaking the spec. Given above, I don't see much room for user-space applications to misuse this. Given these are defined as optional in spec, user-space application should use only if/when available and use it as complementary to cpuidle stats. Sounds reasonable? >> LPI described in section 8.4.4 of ACPI spec 6.1 provides different >> methods to obtain idle statistics maintained by the platform.

What's the need to reduce the no. of file accesses ? When we have a large number of cores, with multiple idle state + few auto-promotable states. The amount of files we need to access to get a snapshot before/after a running a workload is quite high. It gets worse if we want to keep the file handles open to sample it little more frequently, to get breakdown of idle state distribution during different phases of a workload. >> Signed-off-by: Prashanth Prakash <pprakash@codeaurora.org> >> --- >> drivers/acpi/acpi_processor.c | 11 ++ >> drivers/acpi/processor_idle.c | 345 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- >> include/acpi/processor.h | 27 ++++ >> 3 files changed, 381 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) >> >> diff --git a/drivers/acpi/acpi_processor.c b/drivers/acpi/acpi_processor.c >> index 0143135..a01368d 100644 >> --- a/drivers/acpi/acpi_processor.c >> +++ b/drivers/acpi/acpi_processor.c >> @@ -570,9 +570,19 @@ void __init acpi_early_processor_osc(void) >> static int acpi_processor_container_attach(struct acpi_device *dev, >> const struct acpi_device_id *id) >> { >> + if (dev->status.present && dev->status.functional && >> + dev->status.enabled && dev->status.show_in_ui) >> + acpi_lpi_sysfs_init(dev->handle, >> + (struct acpi_lpi_sysfs_data **)&dev->driver_data); > Why not register it only if LPIs are detected/initialized as active ?

Sorry for just raising issue without solution. Given the hierarchical nature of LPI and presence of auto promote-able states, it was hard to fit it to cpuidle model. I will take a look at it again, though I am not confident about finding a solution to avoid duplication. > >> +int acpi_lpi_sysfs_init(acpi_handle h, >> + struct acpi_lpi_sysfs_data **lpi_sysfs_data) >> +{ >> + struct acpi_device *d; >> + struct acpi_lpi_states_array info; >> + struct acpi_lpi_sysfs_state *sysfs_state = NULL; >> + struct acpi_lpi_sysfs_data *data = NULL; >> + int ret, i; >> + >> + if (!lpi_sysfs_data) >> + return -EINVAL; >> + >> + ret = acpi_bus_get_device(h, &d); >> + if (ret) >> + return ret; >> + >> + ret = acpi_processor_evaluate_lpi(h, &info); > Why do we need to reevaluate _LPI here ? Since I am calling acpi_lpi_sysfs_init( ) from processor_driver and processor_container, calling reevaluate made the code much simpler. Refactoring code to initialize LPI sysfs as part of LPI init in processor driver should likely remove the need to call reevaluate here.

If f/w tracks and updates these statistics, it may not be so accurate in the future if more controls that are today done in f/w will be done automatically done in h/w.

On the contrary agreeing with you on issue with large no. of file handles, why not we have single stat file that provides all the information you need and be done with it ? Why do we need all this hierarchy of sysfs if the summary_stats can provide all those information broken down.

The only example I can think of is cpufreq stats that does something like this, though I am not sure of exact motivation(s) behind it. I think one could have made the similar case with cpuidle sysfs as well. Moreover summary_stats only mitigates some of the overhead with frequent reading of stats and doesn't really fix it in a scalable manner. So, I suppose the current reasoning to have summary_stats is quite weak to start with. >> It gets worse if we want to keep the file handles open to sample it little more frequently, >> to get breakdown of idle state distribution during different phases of a workload. > On the contrary agreeing with you on issue with large no. of file > handles, why not we have single stat file that provides all the > information you need and be done with it ?

With hierarchy, it is possible to get information about relationship between cpus and higher order shared resources. If we flatten the hierarchy we lose information about relationships and it gets a little hard to clearly represent the idle states of shared resources and which cpus share those resources. -- Thanks, Prashanth -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

No I was not saying to control it.

IIUC, you had some format already for summary_stat file, just extend to get all the information you would get reading individual sysfs files organized hierarchically. I don't think that should matter much as you would have all these information, just the representation differs. I am assuming all this data is not used/interpreted on the fly, but mostly used offline for analysis. Otherwise it's already misuse and we don't want to expose such user ABI IMO. Just to summarize, though I agree this LPI stats are more accurate and more representative summary, I think it may fade away as we move towards hardware controlled lower power states. Since we already have cpuidle stats, I prefer to keep this LPI stats interface to userspace as simple and minimal as possible and yet helpful to get all the information.

I will remove summary_stats and make other changes based on feedback and post next rev.

I am sorry if I was not clear earlier, I was infact asking you what if we just have single summary_stat file with all statistics broken down to minuet details you want instead of creating the hierarchy of individual files which you say has overhead to read. Do you process the stats on the fly when workload is running, I assume not.

I don't see any use-cases for on the fly analysis. The most we might want to do it capture this data periodically and then post-process it to see how different phases of a workload did. The overhead of reading multiple files comes down what could be the duration between reads to this sysfs without drastically impacting the workload - so it is probably not such a big issue. While it is possible to simplify by having all the data aggregated into a single file at each level in the hierarchy, we end up trading some inefficiencies: - We are reducing the number of file access but increasing the amount of data read (which user-space may or may not be interested in), including re-reading the constant fields(desc, latency etc..) every time. - Adding all info on the same file increases the probability we might break userspace parsing of this single file when we want add a new piece of information. While this was possible earlier, the probability was little lower as it was restricted to only time and usage. - Another reason to avoid collapsing all the fields to single file is to keep it consistent with cpudile interface I was thinking about some of the above issues and when you mentioned simple and minimal, I interpreted it as lets keep the interface simple by removing summary_stats and few other fields we discussed.

Add support to expose idle statistics maintained by platform to userspace via sysfs in addition to other data of interest from each LPI(Low Power Idle) state. LPI described in section 8.4.4 of ACPI spec 6.1 provides different methods to obtain idle statistics maintained by the platform. These show a granular view of how each of the LPI state is being used at different level of hierarchy. sysfs data is exposed at each level in the hierarchy by creating a directory named 'lpi' at each level and the LPI state information is presented under it. Below is the representation of LPI information at one such level in the hierarchy .../ACPI00XX: XX/lpi |-> summary_stats |-> state0 | |-> desc | |-> time | |-> usage | |-> latency | |-> min_residency | |-> flags | |-> arch_flags | <<more states>> ACPI00XX can be ACPI0007(processor) or ACPI0010(processor container) stateX contains information related to a specific LPI state defined in the LPI ACPI tables. summary_stats shows the stats(usage and time) from all the LPI states under a device. The summary_stats are provided to reduce the number' of files to be accessed by the userspace to capture a snapshot of the' idle statistics.
