linux.git/drivers/cpufreq, branch v3.10-rc2 Linux kernel source tree cpufreq: Preserve sysfs files across suspend/resume 2013-05-15T19:47:17+00:00 Srivatsa S. Bhat srivatsa.bhat@linux.vnet.ibm.com 2013-05-15T19:47:17+00:00 a66b2e503fc79fff6632d02ef5a0ee47c1d2553d The file permissions of cpufreq per-cpu sysfs files are not preserved across suspend/resume because we internally go through the CPU Hotplug path which reinitializes the file permissions on CPU online. But the user is not supposed to know that we are using CPU hotplug internally within suspend/resume (IOW, the kernel should not silently wreck the user-set file permissions across a suspend cycle). Therefore, we need to preserve the file permissions as they are across suspend/resume. The simplest way to achieve that is to just not touch the sysfs files at all - ie., just ignore the CPU hotplug notifications in the suspend/resume path (_FROZEN) in the cpufreq hotplug callback.

The file permissions of cpufreq per-cpu sysfs files are not preserved
across suspend/resume because we internally go through the CPU
Hotplug path which reinitializes the file permissions on CPU online.

But the user is not supposed to know that we are using CPU hotplug
internally within suspend/resume (IOW, the kernel should not silently
wreck the user-set file permissions across a suspend cycle).
Therefore, we need to preserve the file permissions as they are
across suspend/resume.

The simplest way to achieve that is to just not touch the sysfs files
at all - ie., just ignore the CPU hotplug notifications in the
suspend/resume path (_FROZEN) in the cpufreq hotplug callback.

If the core has been at minimum p-state for a while bump the pstate up to kick the core to see if it is in this ping pong state. If the core is truly idle the p-state will be reduced at the next sample time. If the core makes more progress it will send more work to the thread bringing both threads out of the ping pong scenario and the p-state will be selected normally. This fixes a performance regression of approximately 30% Cc: 3.9+ <stable@vger.kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Dirk Brandewie <dirk.j.brandewie@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

The acpi-thermal driver adjusts the p-state policy in response to thermal events. These changes override the users settings at the moment. Use the lowest of the two requested values this ensures that we will not exceed the requested pstate from either mechanism.
