[PATCH] ACPI: CPPC: Skip writes to unsupported performance controls
From: Christian Loehle
Date: Fri Jul 24 2026 - 06:41:06 EST
MIN_PERF and MAX_PERF are optional CPPC controls. DESIRED_PERF is also
optional with CPPC2 when autonomous selection is supported.
The cppc-cpufreq target callbacks populate both limits for every request
without checking whether the controls are implemented. cppc_set_perf()
consequently passes NULL register descriptors to cpc_write(). The writes
fail width validation and their return values are ignored, so the failed
access paths are repeated on every target request. An autonomous-only
platform can take the same path for DESIRED_PERF.
Check that each performance control is supported before calling
cpc_write().
