[REGRESSION] [CPUFREQ] 3.9.0-rcX

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

(long e-mail, sorry ;-))

Last known good: 3.8.0

Short description:
1. On -rc3, after s2ram cpufreq does not set CPU on max frequency on
high load (on battery).
2. On -rc4 (this is not real regression because I change config
between -rc3 and rc4), "ondemand" does not work. Current frequency is
'strange' (792 MHz).

Detailed description:

1. Kernel 3.8.0:

I try:
# cd /sys/devices/system/cpu
# CPU_LIST="cpu0/cpufreq/ cpu1/cpufreq/ cpu2/cpufreq cpu3/cpufreq"
# for i in $CPU_LIST; do echo -e "\n\n==================\n$i"; grep ''
-R $i/*; done

Output (show only fisrt CPU, others are same):
cpu0/cpufreq/
cpu0/cpufreq//affected_cpus:0
cpu0/cpufreq//bios_limit:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//cpuinfo_cur_freq:800000
cpu0/cpufreq//cpuinfo_max_freq:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//cpuinfo_min_freq:800000

1000000 900000 800000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_available_governors:ondemand performance
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_cur_freq:800000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_driver:acpi-cpufreq
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_governor:ondemand
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_max_freq:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_min_freq:800000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_setspeed:<unsupported>

It is good: governor "on demand", frequencies also good (800MHz)

CASE 1
Run in other consoles "while true; do echo -n; done" (four times),
power on/off AC power, suspend to ram:

cpu0/cpufreq/
cpu0/cpufreq//affected_cpus:0
cpu0/cpufreq//bios_limit:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//cpuinfo_cur_freq:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//cpuinfo_max_freq:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//cpuinfo_min_freq:800000
cpu0/cpufreq//cpuinfo_transition_latency:10000
cpu0/cpufreq//related_cpus:0 1 2 3
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_available_frequencies:2200000 2000000 1900000
1800000 1700000 1600000 1500000 1400000 1300000 1200000 1100000
1000000 900000 800000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_available_governors:ondemand performance
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_cur_freq:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_driver:acpi-cpufreq
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_governor:ondemand
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_max_freq:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_min_freq:800000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_setspeed:<unsupported>

Still is good, governor works as expected.

cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_max_freq:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_min_freq:800000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_setspeed:<unsupported>

(seems be ok)

CASE 3
Run in other consoles "while true; do echo -n; done":
cpu0/cpufreq/
cpu0/cpufreq//affected_cpus:0 1 2 3
cpu0/cpufreq//bios_limit:2200000

cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_max_freq:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_min_freq:800000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_setspeed:<unsupported>

(still seems be ok)

CASE 4
Disconnect AC adapter
(the same as in 'CASE 3')

CASE 5
Suspend to ram and resume

cpu0/cpufreq/
cpu0/cpufreq//affected_cpus:0 1 2 3
cpu0/cpufreq//bios_limit:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//cpuinfo_cur_freq:800000

cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_max_freq:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_min_freq:800000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_setspeed:<unsupported>

First error: frequency changed from 2,2GHz (maximum) to 800MHz
(minimum), despite the high CPU load.

CASE 6
Power on AC adapter:

cpu0/cpufreq/
cpu0/cpufreq//affected_cpus:0 1 2 3
cpu0/cpufreq//bios_limit:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//cpuinfo_cur_freq:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//cpuinfo_max_freq:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//cpuinfo_min_freq:800000
cpu0/cpufreq//cpuinfo_transition_latency:10000
cpu0/cpufreq//related_cpus:0 1 2 3
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_available_frequencies:2200000 2000000 1900000
1800000 1700000 1600000 1500000 1400000 1300000 1200000 1100000
1000000 900000 800000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_available_governors:ondemand performance
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_cur_freq:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_driver:acpi-cpufreq
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_governor:ondemand
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_max_freq:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_min_freq:800000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_setspeed:<unsupported>

(now back to normal, until AC is disconnected)

===============================================================================

Kernel 3.9.0-rc4

I do some changes:
$ diff -uNr /boot/config-3.9.0-rc3  /boot/config-3.9.0-rc4 | grep -i CONFIG_X86_
 CONFIG_X86_64=y
-# CONFIG_X86_INTEL_PSTATE is not set
-# CONFIG_X86_PCC_CPUFREQ is not set
+CONFIG_X86_INTEL_PSTATE=y
+CONFIG_X86_PCC_CPUFREQ=m
 CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ=m
 # CONFIG_X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ_CPB is not set
 # CONFIG_X86_POWERNOW_K8 is not set

CASE 7
(normal boot)
CPU:

cpu0/cpufreq/
cpu0/cpufreq//affected_cpus:0
cpu0/cpufreq//cpuinfo_cur_freq:792000
cpu0/cpufreq//cpuinfo_max_freq:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//cpuinfo_min_freq:800000
cpu0/cpufreq//cpuinfo_transition_latency:4294967295
cpu0/cpufreq//related_cpus:0
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_available_governors:performance powersave
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_driver:intel_pstate
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_governor:powersave
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_max_freq:2200000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_min_freq:800000
cpu0/cpufreq//scaling_setspeed:<unsupported>

(regardless of the cpu load, power, suspend) 'ondemand' governor is
not available.
