Subject: [PATCH 0/1] Interface to represent PAPR firmware attributes
Date: Wed, 16 Jun 2021 19:12:39 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210616134240.62195-1-psampat@linux.ibm.com> (raw)

RFC --> v1
RFC: https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/6/4/791

Changelog:
Overhaul in interface design to the following:
/sys/firmware/papr/energy_scale_info/
   |-- <id>/
     |-- desc
     |-- value
     |-- value_desc (if exists)
   |-- <id>/
     |-- desc
     |-- value
     |-- value_desc (if exists)

Also implemented a POC using this interface for the powerpc-utils'
ppc64_cpu --frequency command-line tool to utilize this information
in userspace.
The POC for the new interface has been hosted here:
https://github.com/pratiksampat/powerpc-utils/tree/H_GET_ENERGY_SCALE_INFO_v2

Sample output from the powerpc-utils tool is as follows:

# ppc64_cpu --frequency
Power and Performance Mode: XXXX
Idle Power Saver Status   : XXXX
Processor Folding Status  : XXXX --> Printed if Idle power save status is supported

Platform reported frequencies --> Frequencies reported from the platform's H_CALL i.e PAPR interface
min        :    NNNN GHz
max        :    NNNN GHz
static     :    NNNN GHz

Tool Computed frequencies
min        :    NNNN GHz (cpu XX)
max        :    NNNN GHz (cpu XX)
avg        :    NNNN GHz
