Documentation: intel_pstate: PID tuning is not always available
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
PID tuning is not available when the get_target_pstate_use_cpu_load()
is used to calculate target_state. So update the documentation.

Tuning Intel P-State driver

When HWP mode is not used, debugfs files have also been added to allow the
tuning of the internal governor algorithm. These files are located at
/sys/kernel/debug/pstate_snb/. The algorithm uses a PID (Proportional
Integral Derivative) controller. The PID tunable parameters are:
When the performance can be tuned using PID (Proportional Integral
Derivative) controller, debugfs files are provided for adjusting performance.
They are presented under:
/sys/kernel/debug/pstate_snb/

The PID tunable parameters are:
deadband
d_gain_pct
i_gain_pct
