Return 0 on failure. This will cause the initialization of the driver to fail and prevent the driver from loading if the BIOS cannot handle the PCC interface command to "get frequency". Otherwise, the driver will load and display a very high value like "4294967274" (which is actually -EINVAL) for frequency: # cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq 4294967274 Signed-off-by: Naga Chumbalkar <nagananda.chumbalkar@xxxxxx> --- diff --git a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/pcc-cpufreq.c b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/pcc-cpufreq.c index 4f6f679..4a5a42b 100644 --- a/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/pcc-cpufreq.c +++ b/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/pcc-cpufreq.c @@ -195,7 +195,7 @@ static unsigned int pcc_get_freq(unsigned int cpu) cmd_incomplete: iowrite16(0, &pcch_hdr->status); spin_unlock(&pcc_lock); - return -EINVAL; + return 0; } static int pcc_cpufreq_target(struct cpufreq_policy *policy, -- 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
