Rebased and tested against 5.15 2. Added a selftest to check if the energy and frequency attribues exist and their files populated Also, have implemented a POC using this interface for the powerpc-utils' ppc64_cpu --frequency command-line tool to utilize this information in userspace. The POC for the new interface has been sent to the powerpc-utils mailing list for early review: https://groups.google.com/g/powerpc-utils-devel/c/r4i7JnlyQ8s Sample output from the powerpc-utils tool is as follows: # ppc64_cpu --frequency Power and Performance Mode: XXXX Idle Power Saver Status : XXXX Processor Folding Status : XXXX --> Printed if Idle power save status is supported Platform reported frequencies --> Frequencies reported from the platform's H_CALL i.e PAPR interface min : NNNN GHz max : NNNN GHz static : NNNN GHz Tool Computed frequencies min : NNNN GHz (cpu XX) max : NNNN GHz (cpu XX) avg : NNNN GHz Pratik R.
