The CPU which came first should get the ownership by default, instead
of the first one in the mask.

Normally at boot, all CPUs come up first and then only cpufreq init starts.
But in case all other CPUs fail to come up, then policy->cpu *might* point
to a failed cpu.

And so, we should simply use policy->cpu here instead of finding the
first one in the mask.


Replied to this in a different email.

Also, its not the duty of this routine to find which one is the policy cpu as
that is done by __cpufreq_add_dev(). And so in case we need to make
first cpu of a mask as policy->cpu, it should be done in __cpufreq_add_dev()
and not here. This one should just follow the orders :)

This is a new function. And that split up might have made sense earlier. But not so much anymore since I'm sharing a lot of code between __cpufreq_add_dev() and __cpufreq_remove_dev(). There's not reason to stick with the previous split of up work if it doesn't apply well anymore.

Please give this a second thought. Maybe it'll make more sense after I split this up into smaller patches.


@Srivatsa: What happens to the sysfs directory if a CPU fails to come up?
Is it exactly similar to how it happens in hotplug? i.e. we do have a directory
there?

                         continue;

Keep this please, it might be useful while debugging.

Reluctant ok. We don't add/remove these files anymore in a common scenario. So, it's not going to be very helpful. I'll also have to do a add ? Add : Remove blurb for the print.

Again, deciding which cpu is policy->cpu here is wrong. Just follow

@Srivatsa: I will try this but you also take care of this. These
ifdefs might go wrong,
i.e. we are surely using it in the current patch without HOTPLUG as well. See
cpufreq_add_dev()..

Also, how does suspend/resume work without CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU ?
What's the sequence of events?

We aren't using cpus at multiple places and so probably it would
be better to using cpumask_empty() directly.

I may get the answer later in reviews, but when will cpus be 0 here?
Probably for non-boot cluster during suspend/resume, or forceful
hotplugging off all CPUs of a cluster. Right?

Yup!

No, we don't have to consider changing policy->cpu for every change
in policy->cpus. We need to do that only when policy->cpu goes down.

Ok, I agree I could improve the check to reduce the unnecessary notification even more.

Also pcpu can't be < nr_cpu_ids, right?

This is for the case when all CPUs in a cluster have been taken down. We don't want to send the notifier at that point. When the mask is empty, the function returns a value >= nr_cpu_ids to indicate an error.

Why? And also, these are unrelated changes and must be added as separate

This is because we call this with policy rwsem read lock held and lockdep throws a warning. So, it's related to this patch.

Where is this gone? There are several instances of code just being
removed, this is the third one. Its really really tough to catch these
in this big of a patch. Believe me.

You have to break this patch into multiple ones, see this on how to
break even simplest of the changes into multiple patches:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/9/6/400

Its just impossible to catch bugs that you might have introduced here due
to the size of this patch. And its taking a LOT of time for me to review this.
As I have to keep diff in one tab, new cpufreq.c in one and the old cpufreq.c
in one and then compare..

Will do. With Srivatsa point about just making sure every patch compiles, it should be easy to break it up. But to answer your original question, it's again not needed to save/restore since we don't destroy it.

Why is the if block kept outside of #ifdef? And should we really call
change_*() from inside a #ifdef here?

Yeah, it can be inside.

You might still call this attempt a showcase of idea, but I am reviewing it
at my full capacity.

Oh, at this point this is not an RFC at all. I want it merged. So, that's for the thorough review.

And these small things just break my flow.

- Don't add {} for single liner blocks
- Add comments with proper comment style
- Run checkpatch --strict before sending patches.

Will do.

Which part? Just removing the offline check? I should move it to 2/2 (or the split ups of it) probably.

separated for some purpose and I am just not able to concentrate enough
to think of that, just too many cases running in my mind :)

I am still not sure if everything will work as expected as I seriously doubt
my reviewing capabilities. There might be corner cases which I am still
missing.
