@ -347,81 +347,8 @@ for tickless systems. It follows the same basic strategy as the ``menu`` `one
<menu-gov_>`_: it always tries to find the deepest idle state suitable for the
given conditions. However, it applies a different approach to that problem.
First, it does not use sleep length correction factors, but instead it attempts
to correlate the observed idle duration values with the available idle states
and use that information to pick up the idle state that is most likely to
"match" the upcoming CPU idle interval. Second, it does not take the tasks
that were running on the given CPU in the past and are waiting on some I/O
operations to complete now at all (there is no guarantee that they will run on
the same CPU when they become runnable again) and the pattern detection code in
it avoids taking timer wakeups into account. It also only uses idle duration
values less than the current time till the closest timer (with the scheduler
tick excluded) for that purpose.
Like in the ``menu`` governor `case <menu-gov_>`_, the first step is to obtain
the *sleep length*, which is the time until the closest timer event with the
assumption that the scheduler tick will be stopped (that also is the upper bound
on the time until the next CPU wakeup). That value is then used to preselect an
idle state on the basis of three metrics maintained for each idle state provided
by the ``CPUIdle`` driver: ``hits``, ``misses`` and ``early_hits``.
The ``hits`` and ``misses`` metrics measure the likelihood that a given idle
state will "match" the observed (post-wakeup) idle duration if it "matches" the
sleep length. They both are subject to decay (after a CPU wakeup) every time
the target residency of the idle state corresponding to them is less than or
equal to the sleep length and the target residency of the next idle state is
greater than the sleep length (that is, when the idle state corresponding to
them "matches" the sleep length). The ``hits`` metric is increased if the
former condition is satisfied and the target residency of the given idle state
is less than or equal to the observed idle duration and the target residency of
the next idle state is greater than the observed idle duration at the same time
(that is, it is increased when the given idle state "matches" both the sleep
length and the observed idle duration). In turn, the ``misses`` metric is
increased when the given idle state "matches" the sleep length only and the
observed idle duration is too short for its target residency.
The ``early_hits`` metric measures the likelihood that a given idle state will
"match" the observed (post-wakeup) idle duration if it does not "match" the
sleep length. It is subject to decay on every CPU wakeup and it is increased
when the idle state corresponding to it "matches" the observed (post-wakeup)
idle duration and the target residency of the next idle state is less than or
equal to the sleep length (i.e. the idle state "matching" the sleep length is
deeper than the given one).
The governor walks the list of idle states provided by the ``CPUIdle`` driver
and finds the last (deepest) one with the target residency less than or equal
to the sleep length. Then, the ``hits`` and ``misses`` metrics of that idle
state are compared with each other and it is preselected if the ``hits`` one is
greater (which means that that idle state is likely to "match" the observed idle
duration after CPU wakeup). If the ``misses`` one is greater, the governor
preselects the shallower idle state with the maximum ``early_hits`` metric
(or if there are multiple shallower idle states with equal ``early_hits``
metric which also is the maximum, the shallowest of them will be preselected).
[If there is a wakeup latency constraint coming from the `PM QoS framework
<cpu-pm-qos_>`_ which is hit before reaching the deepest idle state with the
target residency within the sleep length, the deepest idle state with the exit
latency within the constraint is preselected without consulting the ``hits``,
``misses`` and ``early_hits`` metrics.]
Next, the governor takes several idle duration values observed most recently
into consideration and if at least a half of them are greater than or equal to
the target residency of the preselected idle state, that idle state becomes the
final candidate to ask for. Otherwise, the average of the most recent idle
duration values below the target residency of the preselected idle state is
computed and the governor walks the idle states shallower than the preselected
one and finds the deepest of them with the target residency within that average.
That idle state is then taken as the final candidate to ask for.
Still, at this point the governor may need to refine the idle state selection if
it has not decided to `stop the scheduler tick <idle-cpus-and-tick_>`_. That
generally happens if the target residency of the idle state selected so far is
less than the tick period and the tick has not been stopped already (in a
previous iteration of the idle loop). Then, like in the ``menu`` governor
`case <menu-gov_>`_, the sleep length used in the previous computations may not
reflect the real time until the closest timer event and if it really is greater
than that time, a shallower state with a suitable target residency may need to
be selected.
