[PATCH v7 0/8] CPUs capacity information for heterogeneous systems

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

 




Hi all,

version 7 of "CPUs capacity information for heterogeneous systems" patchset [1]
(please refer to previous postings to get some context).

A few changes from v6:

 - rebase on top of mainline (4.8-rc5)
 - some ACKs collected
 - changelogs fixes
 - use cpuinfo.max_freq
 - add delayed work to unregister notifier

Patches high level description:

 o 01/08 introduces documentation for the new optional DT binding
 o [02-06]/08 add cpu-capacity attribute to TC2, Juno and Juno r2 DTs and
   provide parsing of such information at boot time
 o [07-08]/08 introduce sysfs attribute

In case you would like to test this out, I pushed a branch here:

 git://linux-arm.org/linux-jl.git upstream/default_caps_v7

This branch contains additional patches, useful to better understand how CPU
capacity information is actually used by the scheduler.

These patches also form the basis for Morten/Dietmar's "Clean-ups and
asymmetric cpu capacity support" series [2] (and the EAS stack in general).

Best,

- Juri
