And the above ones also doesn't look good. 2/5 and 3/4 shouldn't be the groups. acpi-cpufreq driver is getting this information from perf->shared_cpu_map and that seems to be wrong to me now. > Post s2ram/resume cycle: > > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/ > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq -> ../cpu0/cpufreq/ > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/cpufreq -> ../cpu4/cpufreq/ > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu3/cpufreq -> ../cpu5/cpufreq/ > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu4/cpufreq/ > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu5/cpufreq/ 2/4 and 3/5 are also wrong groups. > But I don't know whether it's CPU ordering that's weird, or the cpufreq > ordering.

One thing i am sure about is cpu order is fixed at boot and after boot whatever you do can't change that order... So order should always be 0/1, 2/3, 4/5 > Either way, there's the correct number of dirs and links now, but the ordering > is extremely confusing and looks wrong, regardless of whether it actually > corresponds to the hardware or not, something I don't have the ability to > judge. Hmm.. Can you try one thing? Run 3.8 over your machine and give output of cpufreq-info and ls -ld after boot and resume.. I would like to see what's the original behavior. -- viresh -- 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
