Subject: [PATCH 2/4] x86, sched: Account for CPUs with less than 4 cores in freq. invariance
Date: Thu, 16 Apr 2020 07:47:43 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200416054745.740-3-ggherdovich@suse.cz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200416054745.740-1-ggherdovich@suse.cz>

If a CPU has less than 4 physical cores, MSR_TURBO_RATIO_LIMIT will
rightfully report that the 4C turbo ratio is zero. In such cases, use the
1C turbo ratio instead for frequency invariance calculations.
