/*
* Concepts and ideas behind the menu governor
*
* For the menu governor, there are 3 decision factors for picking a C
* state:
* 1) Energy break even point
* 2) Performance impact
* 3) Latency tolerance (from pmqos infrastructure)
* These these three factors are treated independently.
*
* Energy break even point
* -----------------------
* C state entry and exit have an energy cost, and a certain amount of time in
* the C state is required to actually break even on this cost. CPUIDLE
* provides us this duration in the "target_residency" field. So all that we
* need is a good prediction of how long we'll be idle. Like the traditional
* menu governor, we start with the actual known "next timer event" time.
*
* Since there are other source of wakeups (interrupts for example) than
* the next timer event, this estimation is rather optimistic. To get a
* more realistic estimate, a correction factor is applied to the estimate,
* that is based on historic behavior. For example, if in the past the actual
* duration always was 50% of the next timer tick, the correction factor will
* be 0.5.
*
* menu uses a running average for this correction factor, however it uses a
* set of factors, not just a single factor. This stems from the realization
* that the ratio is dependent on the order of magnitude of the expected
* duration; if we expect 500 milliseconds of idle time the likelihood of
* getting an interrupt very early is much higher than if we expect 50 micro
* seconds of idle time. A second independent factor that has big impact on
* the actual factor is if there is (disk) IO outstanding or not.
* (as a special twist, we consider every sleep longer than 50 milliseconds
* as perfect; there are no power gains for sleeping longer than this)
*
* For these two reasons we keep an array of 12 independent factors, that gets
* indexed based on the magnitude of the expected duration as well as the
* "is IO outstanding" property.
*
* Repeatable-interval-detector
* ----------------------------
* There are some cases where "next timer" is a completely unusable predictor:
* Those cases where the interval is fixed, for example due to hardware
* interrupt mitigation, but also due to fixed transfer rate devices such as
* mice.
* For this, we use a different predictor: We track the duration of the last 8
* intervals and if the stand deviation of these 8 intervals is below a
* threshold value, we use the average of these intervals as prediction.
*
* Limiting Performance Impact
* ---------------------------
* C states, especially those with large exit latencies, can have a real
* noticeable impact on workloads, which is not acceptable for most sysadmins,
* and in addition, less performance has a power price of its own.
*
* As a general rule of thumb, menu assumes that the following heuristic
* holds:
* The busier the system, the less impact of C states is acceptable
*
* This rule-of-thumb is implemented using a performance-multiplier:
* If the exit latency times the performance multiplier is longer than
* the predicted duration, the C state is not considered a candidate
* for selection due to a too high performance impact. So the higher
* this multiplier is, the longer we need to be idle to pick a deep C
* state, and thus the less likely a busy CPU will hit such a deep
* C state.
*
* Two factors are used in determing this multiplier:
* a value of 10 is added for each point of "per cpu load average" we have.
* a value of 5 points is added for each process that is waiting for
* IO on this CPU.
* (these values are experimentally determined)
*
* The load average factor gives a longer term (few seconds) input to the
* decision, while the iowait value gives a cpu local instantanious input.
* The iowait factor may look low, but realize that this is also already
* represented in the system load average.
*
