Hi All,
I have a MP system where both the cores are running synchronously i.e.
both cores run using the same clock.
I would like to know how the "on-demand" governor takes care of this
scenario? There may be a case where both the cores are running but any
one of the core is under loaded, how this is handled in on-demand
governor?
Are there any existing solutions on any of the architectures? If NOT
how do i go for this?

see policy->related_cpus and ->cpus

Hi Dave,
"related_cpus" attribute displays the CPUs coordination map. whose
frequency is either coordinated by h/w OR s/w.

from the code i am didn't understood clearly how the cpufreq takes
care of setting the best optimal frequency based on both the cores
load into consideration?
