H A D | sysfs-firmware-papr-energy-scale-info | 3c14b73454cf9f6e2146443fdfbdfb912c0efed3 Thu Feb 17 11:53:20 CET 2022 Pratik R. Sampat <psampat@linux.ibm.com> powerpc/pseries: Interface to represent PAPR firmware attributes
Adds a syscall interface to represent the energy and frequency related PAPR attributes on the system using the new H_CALL "H_GET_ENERGY_SCALE_INFO".
H_GET_EM_PARMS H_CALL was previously responsible for exporting this information in the lparcfg, however the H_GET_EM_PARMS H_CALL will be deprecated P10 onwards.
The H_GET_ENERGY_SCALE_INFO H_CALL is of the following call format: hcall( uint64 H_GET_ENERGY_SCALE_INFO, // Get energy scale info uint64 flags, // Per the flag request uint64 firstAttributeId,// The attribute id uint64 bufferAddress, // Guest physical address of the output buffer uint64 bufferSize // The size in bytes of the output buffer ); As specified in PAPR+ v2.11, section 14.14.3.
This H_CALL can query either all the attributes at once with firstAttributeId = 0, flags = 0 as well as query only one attribute at a time with firstAttributeId = id, flags = 1.
The output buffer consists of the following 1. number of attributes - 8 bytes 2. array offset to the data location - 8 bytes 3. version info - 1 byte 4. A data array of size num attributes, which contains the following: a. attribute ID - 8 bytes b. attribute value in number - 8 bytes c. attribute name in string - 64 bytes d. attribute value in string - 64 bytes
The new H_CALL exports information in direct string value format, hence a new interface has been introduced in /sys/firmware/papr/energy_scale_info to export this information to userspace so that the firmware can add new values without the need for the kernel to be changed.
The H_CALL returns the name, numeric value and string value (if exists)
The format of exposing the sysfs information is as follows: /sys/firmware/papr/energy_scale_info/ |-- <id>/ |-- desc |-- value |-- value_desc (if exists) |-- <id>/ |-- desc |-- value |-- value_desc (if exists) ...
The energy information that is exported is useful for userspace tools such as powerpc-utils. Currently these tools infer the "power_mode_data" value in the lparcfg, which in turn is obtained from the to be deprecated H_GET_EM_PARMS H_CALL.
On future platforms, such userspace utilities will have to look at the data returned from the new H_CALL being populated in this new sysfs interface and report this information directly without the need of interpretation.
