| Series | PM / devfreq: Add sysfs attributes to simple_ondemand governor | expand |
Hi Lukasz, I has been developed[1] the sysfs attributes for upthreshold and downdifferential. But, I has not yet posted it[1]. I'll post my approach with some changes. [1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/chanwoo/linux.git/commit/?h=devfreq-testing&id=e7c59dfb4afebe0c96de54516e9be23d76d96492 On 1/16/21 2:05 AM, Lukasz Luba wrote: > The simple_ondemand devfreq governor is used by quite a few devices, like > GPUs, DSPs, memory controllers, etc. It implements algorithm which tries > to predict the device frequency based on past statistics.

I'll post my approach with some changes. Fair enough. Please add me on CC when you post it. I can help you with reviewing it. > > [1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/chanwoo/linux.git/commit/?h=devfreq-testing&id=e7c59dfb4afebe0c96de54516e9be23d76d96492 Thank you for the link. The code looks pretty good, just use kstrtouint() instead of sscanf() - checkpatch would not complain. Regards, Lukasz

Huge hint, when calling sysfs_* from a driver, that usually means you are doing something wrong. thanks, greg k-h

I should have used kobject_init_and_add() and the default devfreq sysfs group as a parent. Thank you for the comments and hints. I'll make use of them next time. This patch is abandoned, since Chanwoo is already trying to address the same issue. Regards, Lukasz > > thanks, > > greg k-h >

No, never use "raw" kobjects in the sys/devices/ tree, that is a sure way to ensure that userspace will never be notified or see your attributes. thanks, greg k-h

Interesting, I've seen it in the schedutil governor, but might in a different context. Regards, Lukasz

The simple_ondemand devfreq governor is used by quite a few devices, like GPUs, DSPs, memory controllers, etc. It implements algorithm which tries to predict the device frequency based on past statistics. There are two tunables for the algorithm: 'upthreshold' and 'downdifferential'. These tunables change the behavior of the decision, e.g. how fast to increase the frequency or how rapidly limit the frequency. These values might be different based on the application which is currently running, e.g. different behavior is needed for a game than for web browsing or clean desktop. The patch exports these two tunables so they can be adjusted based on current need. There is also a check with the allowed ranges to make sure the values are correct and safe.
