Hi everyone,
After reading "CPU offline but power consumption increased?" lkml thread I
wanted to test CPU on-off on my Turion 64 X2.
I found out something strange, related to the way CPU is turned off and back
on. I don't know if this is a kernel bug, but looks pretty suspicious.

Hello,
I have the same "problems" with CPU-Hotplug. Whenever I turn off the
second core and turn it back on, /proc/cpuinfo shows that the second
core is on, but at a different speed.

dmesg shows the following after resume from s2disk (only the first
time, then "CPU: Vendor unknown../Your system my be unstable" doesn't
appear):

CPU1: AuthenticAMD AMD Turion(tm) 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-60 stepping 02
CPU1 is up
Switched to high resolution mode on CPU 1
But I don't noticed a shorter batterylife or more cpu hotness, so I
think the second core is running at the same speed as CPU0 and
/proc/cpuinfo (and possibly other files) doesn't update correctly.

Stefan

Hi!
This issue is solved with 2.6.22-rc for me. The second core is up with
the same speed as core 1 (Bogomips are the same, too).

I'm sorry, I am not able to reproduce this issue (using 2.6.21.3). Everything
works fine on my Turion laptop. It looks like there is also CPU hotplug
involved in that issue, since brining cpu1 back on doesn't update siblings
and cpu_cores in /proc/cpuinfo as well. Can you specify more details about
the system you are using? Have you tried enabling CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEBUG and
booting with "cpufreq.debug=7"?

As a follow-up:
As Stefan noticed initially, the CPU frequency of the 2nd CPU is different
after the CPU is brought back online.
