|
|
Hi,
I have an AMD Phenom-II processor. The kernel has been manually compiled with all the CPU governors loaded in the kernel including the CPU-microcode.
There are no governors loaded for the CPU.
Code: | # cpupower frequency-info
analyzing CPU 1:
no or unknown cpufreq driver is active on this CPU
CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: Not Available
CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: Not Available
maximum transition latency: Cannot determine or is not supported.
Not Available
available cpufreq governors: Not Available
Unable to determine current policy
current CPU frequency: Unable to call hardware
current CPU frequency: Unable to call to kernel
boost state support:
Supported: no
Active: no
Boost States: 0
Total States: 1
Pstate-P0: 800MHz
|
What am I missing ? |

Re: my AMD Phenom(tm) 8650 Triple-Core Processor -- they probably have something in common:
Code: | grep ^CONFIG_ACPI /usr/src/linux/.config
CONFIG_ACPI=y
CONFIG_ACPI_LEGACY_TABLES_LOOKUP=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SYSTEM_POWER_STATES_SUPPORT=y
CONFIG_ACPI_SLEEP=y
CONFIG_ACPI_BUTTON=y
CONFIG_ACPI_VIDEO=y
CONFIG_ACPI_FAN=y
CONFIG_ACPI_CPU_FREQ_PSS=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR_CSTATE=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR_IDLE=y
CONFIG_ACPI_PROCESSOR=y
CONFIG_ACPI_HOTPLUG_CPU=y
CONFIG_ACPI_THERMAL=y
CONFIG_ACPI_TABLE_UPGRADE=y
CONFIG_ACPI_CONTAINER=y
CONFIG_ACPI_HOTPLUG_IOAPIC=y
CONFIG_ACPI_MDIO=m
CONFIG_ACPI_WMI=y |
Code: | cpupower frequency-info
analyzing CPU 0:
driver: acpi-cpufreq
CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: 0
CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: 0
maximum transition latency: 18.0 us
hardware limits: 1.15 GHz - 2.30 GHz
available frequency steps: 2.30 GHz, 1.15 GHz
available cpufreq governors: conservative ondemand userspace powersave performance schedutil
current policy: frequency should be within 1.15 GHz and 2.30 GHz.
The governor "schedutil" may decide which speed to use
within this range.
current CPU frequency: Unable to call hardware
current CPU frequency: 1.15 GHz (asserted by call to kernel)
boost state support:
Supported: no
Active: no |
