linux.git/drivers/cpufreq/p4-clockmod.c, branch v3.11 Linux kernel source tree cpufreq: rename index as driver_data in cpufreq_frequency_table 2013-06-04T12:25:59+00:00 Viresh Kumar viresh.kumar@linaro.org 2013-03-30T10:55:15+00:00 5070158804b5339c71809f5e673cea1cfacd804d The "index" field of struct cpufreq_frequency_table was never an index and isn't used at all by the cpufreq core. It only is useful for cpufreq drivers for their internal purposes. Many people nowadays blindly set it in ascending order with the assumption that the core will use it, which is a mistake. Rename it to "driver_data" as that's what its purpose is. All of its users are updated accordingly.

The "index" field of struct cpufreq_frequency_table was never an
index and isn't used at all by the cpufreq core.  It only is useful
for cpufreq drivers for their internal purposes.

Many people nowadays blindly set it in ascending order with the
assumption that the core will use it, which is a mistake.

Rename it to "driver_data" as that's what its purpose is. All of its
users are updated accordingly.

cpufreq: Notify all policy->cpus in cpufreq_notify_transition() 2013-04-02T13:24:00+00:00 Viresh Kumar viresh.kumar@linaro.org 2013-03-24T06:26:43+00:00 b43a7ffbf33be7e4d3b10b7714ee663ea2c52fe2 policy->cpus contains all online cpus that have single shared clock line. And their frequencies are always updated together. Many SMP system's cpufreq drivers take care of this in individual drivers but the best place for this code is in cpufreq core.

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
