Wysocki First off, some cpufreq drivers (eg. intel_pstate) can pass hints beyond the current target frequency to the hardware and there are no provisions for doing that in the cpufreq framework. In particular, today the driver has to assume that it should allow the frequency to fall below the one requested by the governor (or the required capacity may not be provided) which may not be the case and which may lead to excessive energy usage in some scenarios. Second, the hints passed by these drivers to the hardware neeed not be in terms of the frequency, so representing the utilization numbers coming from the scheduler as frequency before passing them to those drivers is not really useful. Address the two points above by adding a special-purpose replacement for the ->fast_switch callback, called ->adjust_perf, allowing the governor to pass abstract performance level (rather than frequency) values for the minimum (required) and target (desired) performance along with the information whether or not the given CPU has been busy since the last update (which may allow the driver to skip the update in some cases). Also update the schedutil governor to use the new callback instead of ->fast_switch if present. Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
