#1302480 — [PATCH v3 0/4] thermal: re-calculate k_po/k_pu when update sustainable power

k_po/k_pu are two proportional term constants and essentially they have
fixed ratio compared with sustainable power. In current implementation,
k_po and k_pu are absolute value after calculation and cannot represent
the ratio relationship with sustainable power; as a result, when change
sustainable power we cannot smoothly change proportional term constant.

So this patch series introduces k_po_ratio and k_pu_ratio, which
represent the ratio value compared against sustainable power. Also add
sys file system nodes for them for easily update them from userspace and
update a bit in documentation.

Changes from v2:
* According to Eduardo' comments, move code from thermal_core to
  power_allocator file
* According to Daniel's review, v1 will introduce accumulated rounding
  errors; v2 patches can dismiss this issue

Changes from v1:
* Fix compiling error

Leo Yan (4):
  thermal: power_allocator: rework proportional parameter
  thermal: power_allocator: change k_pu_ratio/k_po_ratio as percentage
  thermal: add sys node for k_pu_ratio/k_po_ratio

#1302484 — [PATCH v3 1/4] thermal: power_allocator: rework proportional parameter

fixed ratio compared with sustainable power. In current implementation,
k_po and k_pu are absolute value after calculation and cannot represent
the ratio relationship with sustainable power; as a result, when change
sustainable power we cannot smoothly change proportional term constant.

So this patch introduces variants k_po_ratio and k_pu_ratio, which
represent the ratio value compared against sustainable power, so smaller
ratio will result in thermal slower ramp. The formulas finally are as
below:

k_pu = k_pu_ratio * sustainable_power /
		(desired_temperature - switch_on_temp)

k_po = k_po_ratio * sustainable_power /
		(desired_temperature - switch_on_temp)

#1302485 — [PATCH v3 3/4] thermal: add sys node for k_pu_ratio/k_po_ratio

Add two sys nodes for k_pu_ratio and k_po_ratio, so user can set ratio
value from them. Also change k_pu/k_po as read only nodes, it will only
be used to show proportional term constants which are calculated by
ratio.

In v2 Daniel said that the use case was made up.  Can you elaborate on
why we need this?

Actually, it makes it harder to update from userspace.  Now userspace
can't set a k_po/k_pu any more, and it's forced to set them as ratios
of sustainable power. I'd rather not do this unless there is a good
reason for it.

When I did IPA profiling on Hikey, I tried to set different
sustainable power. But after changed sustainable power, k_po and k_pu
were stale value which calculated by old sustainable power.

So with this patch, it's more convinence for profiling and can avoid
confusion for k_po/k_pu after update sustainable power.

We use ratios of sustainable power to calculate k_po/k_pu, so if user
explicitly specify ratio values we can easily to update k_po/k_pu
after we change sustainable power.

Otherwise, it's hard to get to know the real ratio values of
sustainable power. Please review below case:

- If we set new sustainable power, then actually in kernel it should
  update k_po/k_pu so that can keep fixed ration;
- At the meantime, user can set k_po/k_pu from sys file node so that
  eventually change ratio;

So here has race condition with updating k_po/k_pu and the code is
hard to distinguish what is real real ratio. If have explicit parameters
for ratios, then will be much clear.

Thanks,
Leo Yan

To be clear, I didn't say Leo's use case was made up. In truth I've 
never asked Leo what his use case is.

It was simply the use case that I used to illustrate a bug in the v1 
implementation which was made up (and which you asked for more details of).

Sorry, I didn't mean to say that Leo had made it up.  I was just
asking for a use case and it looked to me that the "fan inhibitor
mode" was something that you guys had talked about.
