docs: power: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rst
Convert the PM documents to ReST, in order to allow them to build with Sphinx. The conversion is actually: - add blank lines and indentation in order to identify paragraphs; - fix tables markups; - add some lists markups; - mark literal blocks; - adjust title markups. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

Power Capping Framework
|
||||
=======================
|
||||
|
||||
The power capping framework provides a consistent interface between the kernel
|
||||
and the user space that allows power capping drivers to expose the settings to
|
||||
user space in a uniform way.
|
||||
|
||||
Terminology
|
||||
===========
|
||||
|
||||
The framework exposes power capping devices to user space via sysfs in the
|
||||
form of a tree of objects. The objects at the root level of the tree represent
|
||||
'control types', which correspond to different methods of power capping. For
|
||||
example, the intel-rapl control type represents the Intel "Running Average
|
||||
Power Limit" (RAPL) technology, whereas the 'idle-injection' control type
|
||||
corresponds to the use of idle injection for controlling power.
|
||||
|
||||
Power zones represent different parts of the system, which can be controlled and
|
||||
monitored using the power capping method determined by the control type the
|
||||
given zone belongs to. They each contain attributes for monitoring power, as
|
||||
well as controls represented in the form of power constraints. If the parts of
|
||||
the system represented by different power zones are hierarchical (that is, one
|
||||
bigger part consists of multiple smaller parts that each have their own power
|
||||
controls), those power zones may also be organized in a hierarchy with one
|
||||
parent power zone containing multiple subzones and so on to reflect the power
|
||||
control topology of the system. In that case, it is possible to apply power
|
||||
capping to a set of devices together using the parent power zone and if more
|
||||
fine grained control is required, it can be applied through the subzones.

The above example illustrates a case in which the Intel RAPL technology,
|
||||
available in Intel® IA-64 and IA-32 Processor Architectures, is used. There is one
|
||||
control type called intel-rapl which contains two power zones, intel-rapl:0 and
|
||||
intel-rapl:1, representing CPU packages. Each of these power zones contains
|
||||
two subzones, intel-rapl:j:0 and intel-rapl:j:1 (j = 0, 1), representing the
|
||||
"core" and the "uncore" parts of the given CPU package, respectively. All of
|
||||
the zones and subzones contain energy monitoring attributes (energy_uj,
|
||||
max_energy_range_uj) and constraint attributes (constraint_*) allowing controls
|
||||
to be applied (the constraints in the 'package' power zones apply to the whole
|
||||
CPU packages and the subzone constraints only apply to the respective parts of
|
||||
the given package individually). Since Intel RAPL doesn't provide instantaneous
|
||||
power value, there is no power_uw attribute.
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to that, each power zone contains a name attribute, allowing the
|
||||
part of the system represented by that zone to be identified.
|
||||
For example::
|
||||
|
||||
cat /sys/class/power_cap/intel-rapl/intel-rapl:0/name
|
||||
|
||||
package-0
|
||||
---------
|
||||
|
||||
The Intel RAPL technology allows two constraints, short term and long term,
|
||||
with two different time windows to be applied to each power zone. Thus for
|
||||
each zone there are 2 attributes representing the constraint names, 2 power
|
||||
limits and 2 attributes representing the sizes of the time windows. Such that,
|
||||
constraint_j_* attributes correspond to the jth constraint (j = 0,1).
|
||||
|
||||
For example::
|
||||
|
||||
constraint_0_name
|
||||
constraint_0_power_limit_uw
|
||||
constraint_0_time_window_us
|
||||
constraint_1_name
|
||||
constraint_1_power_limit_uw
|
||||
constraint_1_time_window_us
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
Monitoring attributes
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
energy_uj (rw)
|
||||
Current energy counter in micro joules. Write "0" to reset.
|
||||
If the counter can not be reset, then this attribute is read only.
|
||||
|
||||
max_energy_range_uj (ro)
|
||||
Range of the above energy counter in micro-joules.
|
||||
|
||||
power_uw (ro)

|
||||
|
||||
name (ro)
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
It is possible that some domains have both power ranges and energy counter ranges;
|
||||
however, only one is mandatory.
|
||||
|
||||
Constraints
|
||||
-----------
|
||||
|
||||
constraint_X_power_limit_uw (rw)
|
||||

|
||||
time window specified by "constraint_X_time_window_us".
|
||||
|
||||

||||
constraint_X_min_time_window_us(ro)
|
||||

Common zone and control type attributes
|
||||
---------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
enabled (rw): Enable/Disable controls at zone level or for all zones using
|
||||
a control type.

Power Cap Client Driver Interface
|
||||
=================================
|
||||
|
||||
The API summary:
|
||||
|
||||
Call powercap_register_control_type() to register control type object.
|
||||
Call powercap_register_zone() to register a power zone (under a given
|
||||
control type), either as a top-level power zone or as a subzone of another
|
||||
power zone registered earlier.
|
||||
The number of constraints in a power zone and the corresponding callbacks have
|
||||
to be defined prior to calling powercap_register_zone() to register that zone.
|
||||
|
||||
To Free a power zone call powercap_unregister_zone().
|
||||
To free a control type object call powercap_unregister_control_type().
|
||||
Detailed API can be generated using kernel-doc on include/linux/powercap.h.

Power Capping Framework
|
||||
==================================
|
||||
|

The power capping framework provides a consistent interface between the kernel
|
||||
and the user space that allows power capping drivers to expose the settings to
|
||||
user space in a uniform way.
|
||||
|
||||
Terminology
|
||||
=========================
|
||||
The framework exposes power capping devices to user space via sysfs in the
|
||||
form of a tree of objects. The objects at the root level of the tree represent
|
||||
'control types', which correspond to different methods of power capping. For
|
||||
example, the intel-rapl control type represents the Intel "Running Average
|
||||
Power Limit" (RAPL) technology, whereas the 'idle-injection' control type
|
||||
corresponds to the use of idle injection for controlling power.
|
||||
|
||||
Power zones represent different parts of the system, which can be controlled and
|
||||
monitored using the power capping method determined by the control type the
|
||||
given zone belongs to. They each contain attributes for monitoring power, as
|
||||

constraint_X_power_limit_uw (rw): Power limit in micro watts, which should be
|
||||
applicable for the time window specified by "constraint_X_time_window_us".
|
||||
|
||||
constraint_X_time_window_us (rw): Time window in micro seconds.
|
||||
|
||||
constraint_X_name (ro): An optional name of the constraint
|
||||
|
||||
constraint_X_max_power_uw(ro): Maximum allowed power in micro watts.
|
||||
|
||||
constraint_X_min_power_uw(ro): Minimum allowed power in micro watts.
|
||||
|
||||
constraint_X_max_time_window_us(ro): Maximum allowed time window in micro seconds.
|
||||
|
||||
constraint_X_min_time_window_us(ro): Minimum allowed time window in micro seconds.
|
||||
|
||||
Except power_limit_uw and time_window_us other fields are optional.

Power Cap Client Driver Interface
|
||||
==================================
|
||||
The API summary:
|
||||
|
||||
Call powercap_register_control_type() to register control type object.
|
||||
Call powercap_register_zone() to register a power zone (under a given
|
||||
control type), either as a top-level power zone or as a subzone of another
|
||||
power zone registered earlier.
|
||||
The number of constraints in a power zone and the corresponding callbacks have
|
||||
to be defined prior to calling powercap_register_zone() to register that zone.
|
||||
|
||||
To Free a power zone call powercap_unregister_zone().
|
||||
To free a control type object call powercap_unregister_control_type().
|
||||
Detailed API can be generated using kernel-doc on include/linux/powercap.h.
