[PATCH] sched,x86: export percpu arch_freq_scale
Posted by Phil Auld 1 year, 6 months ago
Commit 7bc263840bc3 ("sched/topology: Consolidate and clean up
access to a CPU's max compute capacity") removed rq->cpu_capacity_orig
in favor of using arch_scale_freq_capacity() calls. Export the
underlying percpu symbol on x86 so that external trace point helper
modules can be made to work again.

To expand. The problem here is that arch_scale_cpu/freq_capacity() are defined
in headers, but they rely on per cpu variables that are not exported for x86,
but are exported for arm (and riscv at least) in drivers/base/arch_topology.c

One user is sched_tp to help create trace events to track when capacity
changes. Not critical user, but this brings x86 inline with the rest of the
code.

x86 uses the generic arch_scale_cpu_capacity() in sched/topology.h, so this
should make arch_scale_freq_capacity() 'work' for x86 too.

sched/x86: Export 'percpu arch_freq_scale'

Commit:

  7bc263840bc3 ("sched/topology: Consolidate and clean up access to a CPU's max compute capacity")

removed rq->cpu_capacity_orig in favor of using arch_scale_freq_capacity()
calls. Export the underlying percpu symbol on x86 so that external trace
point helper modules can be made to work again.
