SLPC (Single Loop Power Controller) is a replacement for some host-based power management features. The SLPC implementation runs in firmware on GuC. This series has been tested with SKL GuC firmware version 9.18 which is yet to be released. Performance and power testing with these patches and 9.18 firmware is at parity and in some cases better than host solution today on various Linux benchmarks. The graphics power management features in SLPC in this version are called GTPERF, BALANCER, and DCC. GTPERF is a combination of DFPS (Dynamic FPS) and Turbo. DFPS adjusts requested graphics frequency to maintain target framerate. Turbo adjusts requested graphics frequency to maintain target GT busyness; this includes an adaptive boost turbo method. BALANCER adjusts balance between power budgets for IA and GT in power limited scenarios. BALANCER is only active when all display pipes are in "game" mode. DCC (Duty Cycle Control) adjusts requested graphics frequency and stalls guc-scheduler to maintain actual graphics frequency in efficient range. The last series can be found in the archive at " [PATCH v4 00/21] Add support for GuC-based SLPC" https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/intel-gfx/2016-April/094445.html This series incorporates feedback from code reviews on earlier series. It drops the display mode notification patches as it is not needed for Turbo part of GTPERF. This series also adds new interface changes for SLPC support on 9.18 GuC Firmware which is not yet published. Will like to get review started prior to firmware is published. With SLPC disabled by default, this series should be safe to merge now and it can be enabled when 9.18 firmware is released. v2: Addressed review comments on v1. Removed patch to enable SLPC by default.
