If the hardware mitigation is 'heavy', don't you want to have DVFS acting
before hardware throttling ?
The throttling here is in fact some form of DVFS, but yes, generally we
would likely want to have additional forms of DVFS before we reach this
state. We could add CPU cooling devices and there's also a mechanism to
throttle the DRAM frequency on certain boards.
But those are mostly orthogonal to this series. The goal here is to get
rid of the throttling mechanism as a cooling device.
Right, thanks
