ASoC: msm: Reduce min buffer size for low latency

The current low latency driver has 512 bytes as
the min buffer size threshold. With this reducing
the playback time to lower values is not possible.
Setting it to 128 bytes gives us more room
to try out lower buffer sizes from the user space

There were variations in the time taken to
return from each write. This was due
to the delay in switching in and out of
power collapse. To manage this set QOS

block: add FIOPS i/o scheduler

squash of the following:

block: fiops ioscheduler core

FIOPS (Fair IOPS) ioscheduler is IOPS based ioscheduler, so only targets
for drive without I/O seek. It's quite similar like CFQ, but the dispatch
decision is made according to IOPS instead of slice.

The algorithm is simple. Drive has a service tree, and each task lives in
the tree. The key into the tree is called vios (virtual I/O). Every request
has vios, which is calculated according to its ioprio, request size and so
on. Task's vios is the sum of vios of all requests it dispatches. FIOPS
always selects task with minimum vios in the service tree and let the task
dispatch request. The dispatched request's vios is then added to the task's
vios and the task is repositioned in the sevice tree.

Unlike CFQ, FIOPS doesn't have separate sync/async queues, because with I/O
less writeback, usually a task can only dispatch either sync or async requests.
Bias read or write request can still be done with read/write scale.

One issue is if workload iodepth is lower than drive queue_depth, IOPS
share of a task might not be strictly according to its priority, request
size and so on. In this case, the drive is in idle actually. Solving the
problem need make drive idle, so impact performance. I believe CFQ isn't
completely fair between tasks in such case too.

block: fiops read/write request scale

read/write speed of Flash based storage usually is different. For example,
in my SSD maxium thoughput of read is about 3 times faster than that of
write. Add a scale to differenate read and write. Also add a tunable, so
user can assign different scale for read and write.

By default, the scale is 1:1, which means the scale is a noop.

CFQ gives 2.5 times more share to sync workload. This matches CFQ.

Note this is different with the read/write scale. We have 3 types of
requests:
1. read
2. sync write
3. write
CFQ doesn't differentitate type 1 and 2, but request cost of 1 and 2
are usually different for flash based storage. So we have both sync/async
and read/write scale here.

PM: Introduce suspend state PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE

PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE state is a general state that
does not need any platform specific support, it equals
frozen processes + suspended devices + idle processors.

Compared with PM_SUSPEND_MEMORY,
PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE saves less power
because the system is still in a running state.
PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE has less resume latency because it does not
touch BIOS, and the processors are in idle state.

Compared with RTPM/idle,
PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE saves more power as
1. the processor has longer sleep time because processes are frozen.
   The deeper c-state the processor supports, more power saving we can get.
2. PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE uses system suspend code path, thus we can get
   more power saving from the devices that does not have good RTPM support.

This state is useful for
1) platforms that do not have STR, or have a broken STR.
2) platforms that have an extremely low power idle state,
   which can be used to replace STR.

The following describes how PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE state works.
1. echo freeze > /sys/power/state
2. the processes are frozen.
3. all the devices are suspended.
4. all the processors are blocked by a wait queue
5. all the processors idles and enters (Deep) c-state.
6. an interrupt fires.
7. a processor is woken up and handles the irq.
8. if it is a general event,
   a) the irq handler runs and quites.
   b) goto step 4.
9. if it is a real wake event, say, power button pressing, keyboard touch, mouse moving,
   a) the irq handler runs and activate the wakeup source
   b) wakeup_source_activate() notifies the wait queue.
   c) system starts resuming from PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE
10. all the devices are resumed.
11. all the processes are unfrozen.
12. system is back to working.

Known Issue:
The wakeup of this new PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE state may behave differently
from the previous suspend state.
Take ACPI platform for example, there are some GPEs that only enabled
when the system is in sleep state, to wake the system backk from S3/S4.
But we are not touching these GPEs during transition to PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE.
This means we may lose some wake event.
But on the other hand, as we do not disable all the Interrupts during
PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE, we may get some extra "wakeup" Interrupts, that are
not available for S3/S4.

The patches has been tested on an old Sony laptop, and here are the results:

Average Power:
1. RPTM/idle for half an hour:
   14.8W, 12.6W, 14.1W, 12.5W, 14.4W, 13.2W, 12.9W
2. Freeze for half an hour:
   11W, 10.4W, 9.4W, 11.3W 10.5W
3. RTPM/idle for three hours:
   11.6W
4. Freeze for three hours:
   10W
5. Suspend to Memory:
   0.5~0.9W

Average Resume Latency:
1. RTPM/idle with a black screen: (From pressing keyboard to screen back)
   Less than 0.2s
2. Freeze: (From pressing power button to screen back)
   2.50s
3. Suspend to Memory: (From pressing power button to screen back)
   4.33s

>From the results, we can see that all the platforms should benefit from
this patch, even if it does not have Low Power S0.

Writeback will run until there is a new flush work queued.  This may cause

cpuidle: move field disable from per-driver to per-cpu

Andrew J.Schorr raises a question.  When he changes the disable setting on
a single CPU, it affects all the other CPUs.  Basically, currently, the
disable field is per-driver instead of per-cpu.  All the C states of the
same driver are shared by all CPU in the same machine.

The patch changes the `disable' field to per-cpu, so we could set this
separately for each cpu.

cpuidle: Quickly notice prediction failure for repeat mode

The prediction for future is difficult and when the cpuidle governor prediction
fails and govenor possibly choose the shallower C-state than it should. How to
quickly notice and find the failure becomes important for power saving.

cpuidle menu governor has a method to predict the repeat pattern if there are 8
C-states residency which are continuous and the same or very close, so it will
predict the next C-states residency will keep same residency time.

There is a real case that turbostat utility (tools/power/x86/turbostat)
at kernel 3.3 or early. turbostat utility will read 10 registers one by one at
Sandybridge, so it will generate 10 IPIs to wake up idle CPUs. So cpuidle menu
 governor will predict it is repeat mode and there is another IPI wake up idle
 CPU soon, so it keeps idle CPU stay at C1 state even though CPU is totally
idle. However, in the turbostat, following 10 registers reading is sleep 5
seconds by default, so the idle CPU will keep at C1 for a long time though it is
 idle until break event occurs.
In a idle Sandybridge system, run "./turbostat -v", we will notice that deep
C-state dangles between "70% ~ 99%". After patched the kernel, we will notice
deep C-state stays at >99.98%.

In the patch, a timer is added when menu governor detects a repeat mode and
choose a shallow C-state. The timer is set to a time out value that greater
than predicted time, and we conclude repeat mode prediction failure if timer is
triggered. When repeat mode happens as expected, the timer is not triggered
and CPU waken up from C-states and it will cancel the timer initiatively.
When repeat mode does not happen, the timer will be time out and menu governor
will quickly notice that the repeat mode prediction fails and then re-evaluates
deeper C-states possibility.

Below is another case which will clearly show the patch much benefit:

volatile int * shutdown;
volatile long * count;
int delay = 20;
int loop = 8;

void usage(void)
{
	fprintf(stderr,
		"Usage: idle_predict [options]\n"
		"  --help	-h  Print this help\n"
		"  --thread	-n  Thread number\n"
		"  --loop     	-l  Loop times in shallow Cstate\n"
		"  --delay	-t  Sleep time (uS)in shallow Cstate\n");
}

void *simple_loop() {
	int idle_num = 1;
	while (!(*shutdown)) {
		*count = *count + 1;

		if (idle_num % loop)
			usleep(delay);
		else {
			/* sleep 1 second */
			usleep(1000000);
			idle_num = 0;
		}
		idle_num++;
	}

}

static void sighand(int sig)
{
	*shutdown = 1;
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
	sigset_t sigset;
	int signum = SIGALRM;
	int i, c, er = 0, thread_num = 8;
	pthread_t pt[1024];

	static char optstr[] = "n:l:t:h:";

	while ((c = getopt(argc, argv, optstr)) != EOF)
		switch (c) {
			case 'n':
				thread_num = atoi(optarg);
				break;
			case 'l':
				loop = atoi(optarg);
				break;
			case 't':
				delay = atoi(optarg);
				break;
			case 'h':
			default:
				usage();
				exit(1);
		}

	printf("thread=%d,loop=%d,delay=%d\n",thread_num,loop,delay);
	count = malloc(sizeof(long));
	shutdown = malloc(sizeof(int));
	*count = 0;
	*shutdown = 0;

	sigemptyset(&sigset);
	sigaddset(&sigset, signum);
	sigprocmask (SIG_BLOCK, &sigset, NULL);
	signal(SIGINT, sighand);
	signal(SIGTERM, sighand);

	for(i = 0; i < thread_num ; i++)
		pthread_create(&pt[i], NULL, simple_loop, NULL);

	for (i = 0; i < thread_num; i++)
		pthread_join(pt[i], NULL);

	exit(0);
}

Get powertop V2 from git://github.com/fenrus75/powertop, build powertop.
After build the above test application, then run it.
Test plaform can be Intel Sandybridge or other recent platforms.

We will find that deep C-state will dangle between 40%~100% and much time spent
on C1 state. It is because menu governor wrongly predict that repeat mode
is kept, so it will choose the C1 shallow C-state even though it has chance to
sleep 1 second in deep C-state.

While after patched the kernel, we find that deep C-state will keep >99.6%.

cpuidle: Quickly notice prediction failure in general case

The prediction for future is difficult and when the cpuidle governor prediction
fails and govenor possibly choose the shallower C-state than it should. How to
quickly notice and find the failure becomes important for power saving.

The patch extends to general case that prediction logic get a small predicted
residency, so it choose a shallow C-state though the expected residency is large
. Once the prediction will be fail, the CPU will keep staying at shallow C-state
for a long time. Acutally, the CPU has change enter into deep C-state.
So when the expected residency is long enough but governor choose a shallow
C-state, an timer will be added in order to monitor if the prediction failure.

When C-state is waken up prior to the adding timer, the timer will be cancelled
initiatively. When the timer is triggered and menu governor will quickly notice
prediction failure and re-evaluates deeper C-states possibility.
