https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29522 Summary: Unable to use any kind of frequency scaling Product: Power Management Version: 2.5 Kernel Version: 2.6.38-rc5 Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Tree: Mainline Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P1 Component: cpufreq AssignedTo: cpufreq@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ReportedBy: rbrito@xxxxxxxxxx Regression: No Hi. I have a Pentium D 805 with a Gigabyte motherboard that is only able to reduce its speed with p4-clockmod and with the userspace governor (with the help of the powernowd daemon controlling it), not with the ondemand/conservative (since these modules say---correctly---that the latency is too high for them). Since I see that p4-clockmod is frowned upon, I would like to get this fixed. Is there anything that I could help with so that this could get fixed? Thanks, RogÃrio Brito. P.S.: Right now, I am compiling a new kernel (from Linus git tree, up-to-date) with the following change, just to see its behaviour: --- a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/p4-clockmod.c +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/p4-clockmod.c @@ -244,7 +244,7 @@ static int cpufreq_p4_cpu_init(struct cpufreq_policy *policy) /* the transition latency is set to be 1 higher than the maximum * transition latency of the ondemand governor */ - policy->cpuinfo.transition_latency = 10000001; + policy->cpuinfo.transition_latency = 100000; policy->cur = stock_freq; return cpufreq_frequency_table_cpuinfo(policy, &p4clockmod_table[0]); -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.-- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe cpufreq" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
