From: Shuah Khan
Date: Mon Apr 06 2026 - 14:40:41 EST
Hi Rafael,
Please pull the cpupower next update for Linux 7.1-rc1.
- Fixes errors in cpupower-frequency-info short option names
to its manpage.
- Fixes cpupower-idle-info perf option name to its manpage.
- Adds boost and epp options to cpupower-frequency-info to its
manpage.
- Adds description for perf-bias option to cpupower-info to its
manpage.
- Removes unnecessary extern declarations from getopt.h in arguments
parsing functions in cpufreq-set, cpuidle-info, cpuidle-set,
cpupower-info, and cpupower-set utilities. These functions are
defined getopt.h file.
diff is attached.
thanks,
-- Shuah
