[PATCH 1/4] cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix sysfs limits enforcement for performance policy
From: Srinivas Pandruvada
Date: Wed Jan 18 2017 - 13:50:28 EST
The side effect of keeping intel_pstate sysfs limits in sync with cpufreq
is that the now sysfs limits can't enforced under performance policy.
For example if the max_perf_pct is changed from 100 to 80, this will call
intel_pstate_set_policy(), which will change the max_perf to 100 again for
performance policy. Same issue happens, when no_turbo is set.
This change calculates max and min frequency using sysfs performance
limits in intel_pstate_verify_policy() and adjusts policy limits by
calling cpufreq_verify_within_limits(). Also when no_turbo is set, don't
set performance limits.
Fixes: 111b8b3fe4fa (cpufreq: intel_pstate: Always keep all limits settings in sync)
