Intel P-state driver | ||
-------------------- | ||
|
||
This driver implements a scaling driver with an internal governor for | ||
Intel Core processors. The driver follows the same model as the | ||
Transmeta scaling driver (longrun.c) and implements the setpolicy() | ||
instead of target(). Scaling drivers that implement setpolicy() are | ||
assumed to implement internal governors by the cpufreq core. All the | ||
logic for selecting the current P state is contained within the | ||
driver; no external governor is used by the cpufreq core. | ||
|
||
Intel SandyBridge+ processors are supported. | ||
|
||
New sysfs files for controlling P state selection have been added to | ||
/sys/devices/system/cpu/intel_pstate/ | ||
|
||
max_perf_pct: limits the maximum P state that will be requested by | ||
the driver stated as a percentage of the available performance. | ||
|
||
min_perf_pct: limits the minimum P state that will be requested by | ||
the driver stated as a percentage of the available performance. | ||
|
||
no_turbo: limits the driver to selecting P states below the turbo | ||
frequency range. | ||
|
||
For contemporary Intel processors, the frequency is controlled by the | ||
processor itself and the P-states exposed to software are related to | ||
performance levels. The idea that frequency can be set to a single | ||
frequency is fiction for Intel Core processors. Even if the scaling | ||
driver selects a single P state the actual frequency the processor | ||
will run at is selected by the processor itself. | ||
|
||
New debugfs files have also been added to /sys/kernel/debug/pstate_snb/ | ||
|
||
deadband | ||
d_gain_pct | ||
i_gain_pct | ||
p_gain_pct | ||
sample_rate_ms | ||
