As the initialized freq_tables maybe different from the p-states
values, so the array index is different as well.

p-states value: [2400 2400 2000 ...], while the freq_tables:
[2400 2000 ... CPUFREQ_TABLE_END]. After setted the freqs 2000,
the perf->state is 3 while the freqs_table's index should be 2.
So when call the get_cur_freq_on_cpu, the freqs value we get
is 2400.

So, fix the problem with the correct tables.

The problem looks real but I am not very well aware of this driver and
so it would
be more appropriate if Rafael replies/Applies..

What you're saying is basically that freq_table and perf->states
diverge at one point.  Shouldn't we re-generate freq_table in that
case instead of fixing up get_cur_freq_on_cpu() only in a quite
indirect way?

Hi Rafael,

Thanks for your reply.

You mean that we should re-generate the freq_table in that case?
Could we fix the table init like this:

--- a/drivers/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.c
+++ b/drivers/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.c
@@ -779,7 +779,7 @@ static int acpi_cpufreq_cpu_init(struct cpufreq_policy *policy)

        /* table init */
        for (i = 0; i < perf->state_count; i++) {
-               if (i > 0 && perf->states[i].core_frequency >=
+               if (i > 0 && perf->states[i].core_frequency >
                    data->freq_table[valid_states-1].frequency / 1000)
                        continue;

when the value is same, we just keep the value into the freq_table.

Wang

That would only be OK if it is guaranteed that the set of available
states hasn't changed, which I'm not sure is the case.
