Because x86 drivers want cpufreq core to believe that every core has a separate clock, so it is. It doesn't make any sense what so ever to keep only one cpu in affected_cpus and all cpus 0-7 in related_cpus as that information isn't used by core. related cpus comes same as affected cpus in your case because you only have one core per domain (virtual domain :) ).. But in case you have more cores in a cluster and few of them are offlined, these two will have different values. -- 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
