# # CAIF net configurations # menuconfig CAIF tristate "CAIF support" select CRC_CCITT default n ---help--- The "Communication CPU to Application CPU Interface" (CAIF) is a packet based connection-oriented MUX protocol developed by ST-Ericsson for use with its modems. It is accessed from user space as sockets (PF_CAIF). Say Y (or M) here if you build for a phone product (e.g. Android or MeeGo ) that uses CAIF as transport, if unsure say N. If you select to build it as module then CAIF_NETDEV also needs to be built as modules. You will also need to say yes to any CAIF physical devices that your platform requires. See Documentation/networking/caif for a further explanation on how to use and configure CAIF. config CAIF_DEBUG bool "Enable Debug" depends on CAIF default n ---help--- Enable the inclusion of debug code in the CAIF stack. Be aware that doing this will impact performance. If unsure say N. config CAIF_NETDEV tristate "CAIF GPRS Network device" depends on CAIF default CAIF ---help--- Say Y if you will be using a CAIF based GPRS network device. This can be either built-in or a loadable module, If you select to build it as a built-in then the main CAIF device must also be a built-in. If unsure say Y. config CAIF_USB tristate "CAIF USB support" depends on CAIF default n ---help--- Say Y if you are using CAIF over USB CDC NCM. This can be either built-in or a loadable module, If you select to build it as a built-in then the main CAIF device must also be a built-in. If unsure say N. tabs'> summaryrefslogtreecommitdiff

cpufreq: intel_pstate: Disable energy efficiency optimization
Some Kabylake desktop processors may not reach max turbo when running in HWP mode, even if running under sustained 100% utilization. This occurs when the HWP.EPP (Energy Performance Preference) is set to "balance_power" (0x80) -- the default on most systems. It occurs because the platform BIOS may erroneously enable an energy-efficiency setting -- MSR_IA32_POWER_CTL BIT-EE, which is not recommended to be enabled on this SKU. On the failing systems, this BIOS issue was not discovered when the desktop motherboard was tested with Windows, because the BIOS also neglects to provide the ACPI/CPPC table, that Windows requires to enable HWP, and so Windows runs in legacy P-state mode, where this setting has no effect. Linux' intel_pstate driver does not require ACPI/CPPC to enable HWP, and so it runs in HWP mode, exposing this incorrect BIOS configuration. There are several ways to address this problem. First, Linux can also run in legacy P-state mode on this system. As intel_pstate is how Linux enables HWP, booting with "intel_pstate=disable" will run in acpi-cpufreq/ondemand legacy p-state mode. Or second, the "performance" governor can be used with intel_pstate, which will modify HWP.EPP to 0. Or third, starting in 4.10, the /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy*/energy_performance_preference attribute in can be updated from "balance_power" to "performance". Or fourth, apply this patch, which fixes the erroneous setting of MSR_IA32_POWER_CTL BIT_EE on this model, allowing the default configuration to function as designed.
