[PATCH] cpufreq: Record stats when fast switching is enabled

From: Matthias Kaehlcke
Date: Wed Jan 30 2019 - 20:51:53 EST


When fast switching is enabled currently no cpufreq stats are
recorded and the corresponding sysfs attributes appear empty (see
also commit 1aefc75b2449 ("cpufreq: stats: Make the stats code
non-modular")).

Record the stats after a successful fast switch and re-enable access
through sysfs when fast switching is enabled. Since
cpufreq_stats_update() can now be called in interrupt context (during
a fast switch) disable local IRQs while holding the stats spinlock.

The change is so simple that I wonder if I'm missing some important
reason why the stats can't/shouldn't be updated during/after a fast
switch ...

I would expect that holding the stats spinlock briefly in
cpufreq_stats_update() shouldn't be a problem. In theory it would
also be an option to have a per stats lock, though it seems overkill
from my (possibly ignorant) point of view.
