如何测试cpufreq setpolicy driver
上一篇说过有个cpufreq setpolicy patch涉及验证，qemu intel_pstate是不行了，主要是不支持X86_FEATURE_HWP or X86_FEATURE_APERFMPERF，只能在物理机上测试了。我的本本是E40(一代i3)，用了有点久了也不支持，intel_pstate是for SandyBridge arch，Intel从二代 i3...阅读全文

CPUFreq policy代码分析
参考4.9，主要了解几个结构成员：struct cpufreq_policy {
/* CPUs sharing clock, require sw coordination */
cpumask_var_t cpus; /* Online CPUs only */
