Subject: [PATCH 2/4] thermal: intel: hfi: Tune the HFI thermal netlink event delay via debugfs
Date: Mon, 29 Apr 2024 16:41:50 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240429234152.16230-3-ricardo.neri-calderon@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240429234152.16230-1-ricardo.neri-calderon@linux.intel.com>

THe delay between an HFI interrupt and its corresponding thermal netlink
event has so far been hard-coded to CONFIG_HZ jiffies. This may not suit
the needs of all hardware configurations or listeners of events.

If the update delay is too long, much of the information of consecutive
hardware updates will be lost as the HFI delayed workqueue posts a new
thermal netlink event only when there are no previous pending events. If
the delay is too short, multiple, events may overwhelm listeners.

Listeners are better placed to determine the delay of events. They know how
quickly they can act on them effectively. They may also want to experiment
with different values.

Start a debugfs interface to tune the notification delay.

Keep things simple and do not add extra locking or memory barriers. This
may result in the HFI interrupt ocassionally queueing work using stale
delay values, if at all. This should not be a problem: the debugfs file
will update the delay value atomically, we do not expect users to update
the delay value frequently, and the delayed workqueue operates in jiffies
resolution.
