2019-05-30treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 166Thomas Gleixner1-2/+1
Based on 1 normalized pattern(s): licensed under the terms of the gnu gpl license version 2 extracted by the scancode license scanner the SPDX license identifier GPL-2.0-only has been chosen to replace the boilerplate/reference in 62 file(s).

2014-12-20tools / cpupower: Fix no idle state information return valuePrarit Bhargava1-1/+1
sysfs_get_idlestate_count() returns an unsigned int. Returning -ENODEV is not the right thing to do here, and in any case is handled the same way as if there are no states found.

2013-11-26tools: cpupower: fix wrong err msg not supported vs not availableThomas Renninger1-2/+2
idlestates in sysfs are counted from 0. This fixes a wrong error message. Current behavior on a machine with 4 sleep states is: cpupower idle-set -e 4 Idlestate 4 enabled on CPU 0 -----Wrong--------------------- cpupower idle-set -e 5 Idlestate enabling not supported by kernel -----Must and now will be ----- cpupower idle-set -e 5 Idlestate 6 not available on CPU 0 ------------------------------- cpupower idle-set -e 6 Idlestate 6 not available on CPU 0 Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

2013-07-05cpupower: Implement disabling of cstate interfaceThomas Renninger1-1/+115
Latest kernel allows to disable C-states via: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/cpuidle/stateY/disable This patch provides lower level sysfs access functions to make use of this interface. A later patch will implement the higher level stuff. Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

Use unsigned int as the data type for some variables related to CPU idle states which allows the code to be simplified slightly. [rjw: Changelog] Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger <trenn@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com>

2012-05-17sched: Remove stale power aware scheduling remnants and dysfunctional knobsPeter Zijlstra1-33/+2
It's been broken forever (i.e. it's not scheduling in a power aware fashion), as reported by Suresh and others sending patches, and nobody cares enough to fix it properly ... so remove it to make space free for something better. There's various problems with the code as it stands today, first and foremost the user interface which is bound to topology levels and has multiple values per level. This results in a state explosion which the administrator or distro needs to master and almost nobody does. Furthermore large configuration state spaces aren't good, it means the thing doesn't just work right because it's either under so many impossibe to meet constraints, or even if there's an achievable state workloads have to be aware of it precisely and can never meet it for dynamic workloads. So pushing this kind of decision to user-space was a bad idea even with a single knob - it's exponentially worse with knobs on every node of the topology. There is a proposal to replace the user interface with a single 3 state knob: sched_balance_policy := { performance, power, auto } where 'auto' would be the preferred default which looks at things like Battery/AC mode and possible cpufreq state or whatever the hw exposes to show us power use expectations - but there's been no progress on it in the past many months. Aside from that, the actual implementation of the various knobs is known to be broken. There have been sporadic attempts at fixing things but these always stop short of reaching a mergable state. Therefore this wholesale removal with the hopes of spurring people who care to come forward once again and work on a coherent replacement.

2011-08-15cpupower: Better detect offlined CPUsThomas Renninger1-0/+50
Before, checking for offlined CPUs was done dirty and it was checked whether topology parsing returned -1 values. But this is a valid case on a Xen (and possibly other) kernels. Do proper online/offline checking, also take CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU option into account (no /sys/devices/../cpuX/online file).

2011-07-29cpupowerutils - cpufrequtils extended with quite some featuresDominik Brodowski1-0/+350
CPU power consumption vs performance tuning is no longer limited to CPU frequency switching anymore: deep sleep states, traditional dynamic frequency scaling and hidden turbo/boost frequencies are tied close together and depend on each other. The first two exist on different architectures like PPC, Itanium and ARM, the latter (so far) only on X86. On X86 the APU (CPU+GPU) will only run most efficiently if CPU and GPU has proper power management in place. Users and Developers want to have *one* tool to get an overview what their system supports and to monitor and debug CPU power management in detail. The tool should compile and work on as many architectures as possible. Once this tool stabilizes a bit, it is intended to replace the Intel-specific tools in tools/power/x86 Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski <linux@dominikbrodowski.net>
