commit 72f2ecb7ece7 ("ACPI: bus: Set CPPC _OSC bits for all and
when CPPC_LIB is supported") added support for claiming to
support CPPC in _OSC on non-Intel platforms.

This unfortunately caused a regression on a vartiety of AMD
platforms in the field because a number of AMD platforms don't set
the `_OSC` bit 5 or 6 to indicate CPPC or CPPC v2 support.

As these AMD platforms already claim CPPC support via `X86_FEATURE_CPPC`,
use this enable this feature rather than requiring the `_OSC`.

Fixes: 72f2ecb7ece7 ("Set CPPC _OSC bits for all and when CPPC_LIB is supported")

I don't think that would compile on non-X86.  X86_FEATURE_CPPC comes as part of
arch/x86/include/asm/cpufeatures.h, which I wouldn't expect is included on !x86.

Well actually doing that through _OSC wouldn't have worked before 72f2ecb7ece7 either.
If desirable - a platform could avoid populating _CPC objects in ACPI tables in this case.

I do know of OEM platforms that the underlying APU supports CPPC but the OEM doesn't
populate _CPC.  Presumably for this exact reason.

Good point.

Something like this would still look better though IMO:

if (!osc_sb_cppc_not_supported)
        return true;

#ifdef CONFIG_X86
        return boot_cpu_has(X86_FEATURE_CPPC);
#else
        return false;
#endif
}

That is an option, but there is no requirement that _CPC must not be
populated when CPPC is not supported.

_OSC is the proper mechanism for negotiating CPPC support.

Still, if you know for a fact that on AMD systems X86_FEATURE_CPPC
always means that CPPC is supported, I can live with an extra vendor
check in the code above.

Thanks, I'll respin it with something similar to that.

Right; I agree this should have been the proper mechanism.  I'll talk to
our internal BIOS team to double check reference BIOS is populated
with this correctly for programs going forward too.

Thanks.  The definition of that CPUID 8000_0008 EBX bit 27 used
to populate X86_FEATURE_CPPC indicates whether the CPU/APU
supports the dedicated MSR.  There are also technically designs that can
work in shared memory mode that I think the only way to "safely" discover
will be via the _OSC.  If this same regression from 72f2ecb7ece7 crops up
on those we might need to look at changing the amd-pstate module parameter
override that enables it for shared memory into a general kernel command line
override for users to use.
