Can you attach the patch, please. Best against 3.13, I will provide Jon with a lastest Kernel:stable build kernel then. Or even better: In general building kernels for testing is a burden you cannot put on an ordinary Linux user. Only a small percentage are really familiar with how to build and test kernels and even for them it is a huge waste of time. The patch looks very intel_pstate specific and I doubt that such a perf API will get accepted mainline. cpufreq had some nice debug facilities which now have been adopted to dynamic debugging using pr_debug(...). If you have a look at other cpufreq drivers (acpi_cpufreq, powernow-k8, ...), they are all clustered with such messages. It would be great to see intel_pstate extended to be able to enable debug facilities at runtime without the need of recompiling a kernel. If you could come up with such a patch, I can give it a review for mainline submitting and directly add it to our latest kernel HEAD version if it is likely to be accepted mainline. This would ease up intel_pstate debugging for us and others a lot. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
