[RFC v3 3/4] platform/x86/amd: dptc: Add platform profile support

From: Antheas Kapenekakis

Date: Sat Mar 07 2026 - 06:57:00 EST


Register a platform_profile handler so the driver exposes standard
power profiles (low-power, balanced, performance, max-power) alongside
the manual tunable interface. max-power is only supplied when the
performance profile's preset values are below the tunable limits.

When a non-custom profile is active, parameter writes are blocked
(-EPERM) and current_value reflects the profile's preset values.
Selecting the "custom" profile returns control to the user for manual
staging and committing. On resume, the active profile is automatically
re-applied.
