I'd like to see this driver in the next kernel release.

So I have done some tests with this code - based on kernel version 2.6.23.
I have tested it on Athlon 64 X2, Athlon 64, Turion X2 and some other parts
(e.g.family 0x10) and with different cpufreq governors.
I did not observe any problems with this driver update.
Behaviour is the same as before.

I just had to fix one minor compile error.

So please consider to add the attached patch for 2.6.24.
Patch is against current Linus' git tree. This means the patch
"[CPUFREQ] Support different families in fid/did to frequency conversion"
which is contained in the cpufreq.git should be ommitted. The issue
fixed with that patch is solved with this driver update, too.

If you need a patch against the x86 tree I can provide one as well.


Thanks and Regards,

Andreas

[PATCH] architectural pstate driver for powernow-k8

This changes the powernow-k8 driver code that deals with 3rd
generation Opteron, Phenom, and later processors to match the
architectual pstate driver described in the AMD64 Architecture
Programmer's Manual Volume 2 Chapter The initial implementation of the
hardware pstate driver for PowerNow! used some processor-version
specific features, and would not be maintainable in the long term as
the processor features changed. This architectural driver should work
on all future AMD processors.
