[PATCH v7 1/8] PCC: Initialize PCC Mailbox earlier at boot

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

 



This change initializes the PCC Mailbox earlier than
the ACPI processor driver. This enables drivers introduced
in follow up patches (e.g. CPPC) to be probed via the ACPI
processor driver interface. The CPPC probe requires the PCC
channel to be initialized for it to query each CPUs performance
capabilities.
