The below is as expected (performance gov.): Note that the active mode performance scaling algorithm (which is not the same as the performance cpufreq governor) sets the EPP to 0 for all of the CPUs that it is used with and the driver sets the EPP to 255 in ->stop_cpu. That last bit is questionable, but that's the active mode behavior which is not changed by the $subject patch. It would be more reasonable to restore the previous EPP when stopping CPUs. Let me cut a v7 with that changed. > # /home/doug/c/msr-decoder > How many CPUs?: 6 > 8.) 0x198: IA32_PERF_STATUS : CPU 0-5 : 46 : 46 : 46 : 46 : 46 : 46 : > B.) 0x770: IA32_PM_ENABLE: 1 : HWP enable > 1.) 0x19C: IA32_THERM_STATUS: 88450000 > 2.) 0x1AA: MSR_MISC_PWR_MGMT: 401CC0 EIST enabled Coordination enabled OOB Bit 8 reset OOB Bit 18 reset > 3.) 0x1B1: IA32_PACKAGE_THERM_STATUS: 88430000 > 4.) 0x64F: MSR_CORE_PERF_LIMIT_REASONS: 0 > A.) 0x1FC: MSR_POWER_CTL: 3C005D : C1E disable : EEO disable : RHO disable > 5.) 0x771: IA32_HWP_CAPABILITIES (performance): 109252E : high 46 : guaranteed 37 : efficient 9 : lowest 1 > 6.) 0x774: IA32_HWP_REQUEST: CPU 0-5 : > raw: 00002E2E : 00002E2E : 00002E2E : 00002E2E : 00002E2E : 00002E2E : > min: 46 : 46 : 46 : 46 : 46 : 46 : > max: 46 : 46 : 46 : 46 : 46 : 46 : > des: 0 : 0 : 0 : 0 : 0 : 0 : > epp: 0 : 0 : 0 : 0 : 0 : 0 : > act: 0 : 0 : 0 : 0 : 0 : 0 : > 7.) 0x777: IA32_HWP_STATUS: 4 : high 4 : guaranteed 0 : efficient 0 : lowest 0 > > and then switched to passive mode later.
