commit b399151cb48db30ad1e0e93dd40d68c6d007b637 upstream.

x86_mask is a confusing name which is hard to associate with the
processor's stepping.

Additionally, correct an indent issue in lib/cpu.c.

cpufreq: speedstep-smi: enable interrupts when waiting 2015-03-02T13:17:14+00:00 Mikulas Patocka mpatocka@redhat.com 2015-02-09T18:38:17+00:00 a3b6e7d47837ac62b9a55ab0eb832e7f0f99e619 commit d4d4eda23794c701442e55129dd4f8f2fefd5e4d upstream. On Dell Latitude C600 laptop with Pentium 3 850MHz processor, the speedstep-smi driver sometimes loads and sometimes doesn't load with "change to state X failed" message. The hardware sometimes refuses to change frequency and in this case, we need to retry later. I found out that we need to enable interrupts while waiting. When we enable interrupts, the hardware blockage that prevents frequency transition resolves and the transition is possible. With disabled interrupts, the blockage doesn't resolve (no matter how long do we wait). The exact reasons for this hardware behavior are unknown. This patch enables interrupts in the function speedstep_set_state that can be called with disabled interrupts. However, this function is called with disabled interrupts only from speedstep_get_freqs, so it shouldn't cause any problem.

commit d4d4eda23794c701442e55129dd4f8f2fefd5e4d upstream.

On Dell Latitude C600 laptop with Pentium 3 850MHz processor, the
speedstep-smi driver sometimes loads and sometimes doesn't load with
"change to state X failed" message.

The hardware sometimes refuses to change frequency and in this case, we
need to retry later. I found out that we need to enable interrupts while
waiting. When we enable interrupts, the hardware blockage that prevents
frequency transition resolves and the transition is possible. With
disabled interrupts, the blockage doesn't resolve (no matter how long do
we wait). The exact reasons for this hardware behavior are unknown.

This patch enables interrupts in the function speedstep_set_state that can
be called with disabled interrupts. However, this function is called with
disabled interrupts only from speedstep_get_freqs, so it shouldn't cause
any problem.

cpufreq: Add support for x86 cpuinfo auto loading v4 2012-01-27T00:49:06+00:00 Andi Kleen ak@linux.intel.com 2012-01-25T23:09:12+00:00 fa8031aefec0cf7ea6c2387c93610d99d9659aa2 This marks all the x86 cpuinfo tables to the CPU specific device drivers, to allow auto loading by udev. This should simplify the distribution startup scripts for this greatly. I didn't add MODULE_DEVICE_IDs to the centrino and p4-clockmod drivers, because those probably shouldn't be auto loaded and the acpi driver be used instead (not fully sure on that, would appreciate feedback) The old nforce drivers autoload based on the PCI ID. ACPI cpufreq is autoloaded in another patch. v3: Autoload gx based on PCI IDs only.

The old nforce drivers autoload based on the PCI ID.

ACPI cpufreq is autoloaded in another patch.

v3: Autoload gx based on PCI IDs only. Remove cpu check (Dave Jones)
v4: Use newly introduce HW_PSTATE feature for powernow-k8 loading
