[Xen-devel] [PATCH v4 03/11] x86/intel_pstate: add new policy fields and a new driver interface



In order to better support future Intel processors, intel_pstate
changes to use percentage values to tune P-states. The setpolicy
driver interface is used to configure the intel_pstate internal
policy. The __cpufreq_set_policy needs to be intercepted to use
the setpolicy driver if it exists.

The perf_limts struct is included in the per-CPU policy struct, so
that each CPU can be managed individually by the xenpm tool.

The internal_governor struct is used by the driver that implements
its own internal governor, without going through the old acpi
governor framework.

v4 changes:
1) "data->limits = policy->limits", also moved it outside the if{};
2) introduced a new struct "internal_governor", which describes the
   internal governors, to "struct cpufreq_policy";
3) removed the "policy" field in "struct cpufreq_policy" - it's not
   used anymore;
4) renamed "CPUFREQ_POLICY_xx" to "INTERNAL_GOV_xx". "INTERNAL_GOV_xx"
   are macros for internal governors. Future other new internally
   implemented governors are expected to be added here;
5) no_turbo and turbo_disabled, were changed to be the "bool" type.
