treewide: Replace GPLv2 boilerplate/reference with SPDX - rule 166

2019-05-30T18:26:39+00:00

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).

tools/power/cpupower: allow running without cpu0

2017-07-31T12:17:30+00:00

Linux-3.7 added CONFIG_BOOTPARAM_HOTPLUG_CPU0, allowing systems to offline cpu0. But when cpu0 is offline, cpupower monitor will not display all processor and Mperf information: [root@intel-skylake-dh-03 cpupower]# ./cpupower monitor WARNING: at least one cpu is offline |Idle_Stats CPU | POLL | C1-S | C1E- | C3-S | C6-S | C7s- | C8-S 4| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 0.90| 0.00| 96.13 1| 0.00| 0.00| 5.49| 0.00| 0.01| 0.00| 92.26 5| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 0.46| 0.00| 99.50 2| 45.42| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 22.94| 0.00| 28.84 6| 0.00| 37.54| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00 3| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 0.30| 0.00| 91.99 7| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 0.00| 4.70| 0.00| 0.70 This patch replaces the hard-coded use of cpu0 in cpupower with the current cpu, allowing it to run without a cpu0.

tools / cpupower: Correctly detect if running as root

2014-12-19T22:01:03+00:00

Some operations, like frequency-set, need root privileges. However, the way that this is detected is not correct. The getuid() is called, while in fact geteuid() should be. This way we can allow distributions or users to set SETUID flags on the cpupower binary if they want to and let regular users change the cpu frequency governor.

cpupower: Introduce idle-set subcommand and C-state enabling/disabling

2013-07-04T23:52:19+00:00

Example: cpupower idle-set -d 3 will disable C-state 3 on all processors (set commands are active on all CPUs by default), same as: cpupower -c all idle-set -d 3 Signed-off-by: Thomas Renninger Signed-off-by: Rafael J. Wysocki

cpupower: use man(1) when calling "cpupower help subcommand"

Instead of printing something non-formatted to stdout, call man(1) to show the man page for the proper subcommand. Signed-off-by: Dominik Brodowski

cpupowerutils - cpufrequtils extended with quite some features

2011-07-29T16:35:36+00:00

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
