Hello Vince, FYi. I can now confirm that removing and reinserting the power plug does in fact change the value of the r8152 driver value as follows: [root@myodroid-wireless devices]# lsusb -tInterestingly, shutting down the system and powering it off via and extension cord switch had not effected the change. But complete removal and restoration of the power cord into the chassis results in the output above. Also, the "lscpu -a -e" command provides the following: [root@myodroid-wireless devices]# lscpu -a -eNote, cpu 0 (cores 0-3) aligns with the Cortex A7 processor and cpu 1 (cores 4-7) aligns with the Cortex A15 processor. Although "dmesg" does not specifically identify the A15 Processor, the system does in fact recognize it, as can be seen in /sys/devices as follows: [root@myodroid-wireless devices]# pwdThe cpus associated with the armv7_cortex_a15 can indeed be seen in the file "cpus" under the armv7_cortex_a15 directory and align perfectly with the output from the "lscpu -a -e" command. So it would seem the "lscpu" command does report as expected. Thanks again for your work on this. Stewart On 08/29/2018 05:17 AM, Vince Geze

Note the following: * Although 8 cores are recognized, the "lscpu" command (and the "dmesg" snippet) recognizes only the A7 processor. * The default cpu governor is "ondemand" providing a cpu frequency of 700 MHz for all cores per the output of the first "cpupower frequency-info" above. * The cpu governor and frequency can be changed to "performance" and 1300 MHz, respectively by using the command "cpupower frequency-set --governor performance", but this is not persistent between reboots. To make it persistent between reboots follow this procedure: https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/39964/how-to-permanently-set-cp... * Note the last two lines in the "dmesg" command. There may be additional code required in the bootloader or firmware to recognize the A15 processor correctly. Does anyone have any ideas here? StewartHi Stewart, I don't think lscpu is the best source of cpu related info on this device. You can have a look at the /sys tree, I'm not at my device now but I think it's /sys/bus/cpu. There should be a lot of files with cpu related info there, probably even with the correct core type a7/a15. The system boots on an a7 core, so that's probably what you see with lscpu and dmesg. Not sure about the cpu mode, my guess it's related to kernel and user cpu modes, with the cpu not enabled in the mode the bootloader expects. The frequency/voltage pairs in dts are limited to 1.3/1.8GHz, so that's the maximum we get for now. I seem to remember frequencies being downscaled from 1.4/2.1GHz, but I'm not sure what was the background. That being said, when looking at the "current frequency" in /sys, I have the impression the default ondemand governor is behaving as expected, scaling frequency up and down depending on load. Maybe you can try monitoring those files as well? I'll have a look when I have access to the device again. Regarding the r8152 driver, did you just reboot after making the kernel option changes, or shutdown and remove power completely? The first seems to retain part of the old config, the latter will be a full reset and should behave correctly.
