[PATCH V2] cpufreq: Call transition notifier only once for each policy

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently we call these notifiers once for each CPU of the policy->cpus
cpumask. It would be more optimal if the notifier can be called only
once and all the relevant information be provided to it. Out of the 24
drivers that register for the transition notifiers today, only 5 of them
do per-cpu updates and the callback for the rest can be called only once
for the policy without any impact.

This would also avoid multiple function calls to the notifier callbacks
and reduce multiple iterations of notifier core's code (which does
locking as well).

This patch adds pointer to the cpufreq policy to the struct
cpufreq_freqs, so the notifier callback has all the information
available to it with a single call. The five drivers which perform
per-cpu updates are updated to use the cpufreq policy. The freqs->cpu
field is redundant now and is removed.

V1->V2:
- Add cpufreq policy instead of cpus in struct cpufreq_freqs.
- Use policy->cpus instead of related_cpus everywhere in order not to
  change the existing behavior.
- Merged all 7 patches into a single patch.
- Updated changlog and included Ack from David.
