Just for a test only, boot by adding to your kernel command line during boot processor.ignore_ppc=1 > grep: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq: > Permission denied > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq:1833000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_min_freq:1000000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_transition_latency:10000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/freqdomain_cpus:0 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/related_cpus:0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies:18 > 33000 > 1333000 1000000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors:cons > ervative > powersave schedutil ondemand performance > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq:1000000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_driver:acpi-cpufreq > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor:performance > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq:1000000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq:1000000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_setspeed:<unsupported> > grep: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats: Is a directory > pavel@duo:/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq$ > > Let me try v4.9-rc2... that works ok (cpus at the high frequency > during the kernel build). Unfortunately that sends my cpus to 99C > temperature range (and eventually forces emergency shutdown). This we have to debug. Do you see same line like " /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/bios_limit:1000000 " If not we need to find out why. I suggest enter kernel bugzilla. I will add couple of more suggestion to debug.
