Dropped the per core idle injection patch from this series. Hence the
subject of this series is changed. Now it is just for using
idle inject framework for intel_powerclamp.
Add additionl patch for module paramters to set cpumask and max idle percent.

The old cover letter:
This series introduces per CPU idle injection. In preparation for this
enhance the existing powercap/idle_inject and modify intel_powerclamp
to use this. Then add per core idle injection driver.

v5:
- additionl patch for module paramters to set cpumask and max idle percent
- One fix for update callback
- Rebased on top of patch 
 "thermal: intel_powerclamp: Fix cur_state for multi package system"

v4:
- Dropped the per core idle inject patch

v3
- Change callback from per CPU to per device and use in intel_powerclamp
- Remove unused var in per cpu idle injection module

v2
- Update based on feedback from Rafael on patch 2/4
- Kconfig dependency issue
Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com>

Srinivas Pandruvada (4):
  powercap: idle_inject: Export symbols
  powercap: idle_inject: Add update callback
  thermal/drivers/intel_powerclamp: Use powercap idle-inject framework
  thermal/drivers/intel_powerclamp: Add additional module params

Patches [1-3/4] have been applied as 6.3 material and I'll comment
patch [4/4] separately.

First, I would say "Add two module parameters" in the subject.

I'm not sure if this is driver-api.  It's admin-guide rather IMO.

I would do

if (idle_injection_cpu_mask)
         return 0;

here and rearrange the rest of the function accordingly.

Could it be allocated by powerclamp_init(), though?  It is not useful
before that function runs anyway.

So this would replace the existing idle_injection_cpu_mask even if it
is going to fail later.

Should this check be against cpu_online_mask instead?  Arguably
offline CPUs don't matter here.

I would return -ENODEV here.

new_max_idle would be slightly better I think.

The same check is done here and in cpumask_set().  Could it be done in
a separate function called from here and from there?

Why is the additional check needed here?

This whole file can be moved to admin_guide as there is no API.

It is required when passed as module param. For example:

#insmod drivers/thermal/intel/intel_powerclamp.ko cpumask=f

If you return error, module will not be loaded at all.

	insmod: ERROR: could not insert
module	drivers/thermal/intel/intel_powerclamp.ko: Invalid parameters

You have to return success then module parameters will be silently
ignored.

Yes, when user sets 0s in mask. Otherwise I have to keep a separate
cpumask and then copy. The size of cpumask type is 1024 bytes.

I will fix this.

It is present mask which takes care of case when you started idle
injection on CPUS when some CPUs were offline and then online while the
session is going on. The idle-inject core takes care of online during
session. Othewise online CPUs don't get idle injection and will run at
100%.

poll_pkg_cstate_enable is true for single package system, the
additional check prevents starting package c-state polling thread.
But poll_pkg_cstate_enable can be set to false to avoid this check.
