Hi all,
version 7 of "CPUs capacity information for heterogeneous systems" patchset [1] (please refer to previous postings to get some context).
A few changes from v6:
- rebase on top of mainline (4.8-rc5) - some ACKs collected - changelogs fixes - use cpuinfo.max_freq - add delayed work to unregister notifier
Patches high level description:
o 01/08 introduces documentation for the new optional DT binding o [02-06]/08 add cpu-capacity attribute to TC2, Juno and Juno r2 DTs and provide parsing of such information at boot time o [07-08]/08 introduce sysfs attribute
In case you would like to test this out, I pushed a branch here:
git://linux-arm.org/linux-jl.git upstream/default_caps_v7
This branch contains additional patches, useful to better understand how CPU capacity information is actually used by the scheduler.
These patches also form the basis for Morten/Dietmar's "Clean-ups and asymmetric cpu capacity support" series [2] (and the EAS stack in general).
Best,
- Juri
