RE: [PATCH 2/2] _PPC frequency change issues

["Pallipadi, Venkatesh" <venkatesh.pallipadi@intel.com>]

Thanks for identifying the issues and sendint these patches Thomas.

Patch 1 looks clean. New lines seem to contain spaces instead of tabs.
The same issue is there in patch 2 as well. Can you resent it with
indentation fixed.

Patch 2 I am concenred with following hunk.

@@ -161,16 +158,17 @@
 		cpu_max_freq[cpu] = policy->max;
 		dprintk("limit event for cpu %u: %u - %u kHz, currently
%u kHz, last set to %u kHz\n", cpu, cpu_min_freq[cpu],
cpu_max_freq[cpu], cpu_cur_freq[cpu], cpu_set_freq[cpu]);
 		if (policy->max < cpu_set_freq[cpu]) {
-			__cpufreq_driver_target(&current_policy[cpu],
policy->max, 
-			      CPUFREQ_RELATION_H);
+            if (!__cpufreq_driver_target(policy, policy->max, 
+                            CPUFREQ_RELATION_H))
+                cpu_cur_freq[cpu] = policy->max;

Should this me cpu_cur_freq[cpu] = policy->cur instead. As the max
setting may not be supported by the driver, it might have set some
closer available freq

Same comment for below two driver target calls as well.


 		} else if (policy->min > cpu_set_freq[cpu]) {
-			__cpufreq_driver_target(&current_policy[cpu],
policy->min, 
-			      CPUFREQ_RELATION_L);
+            if (!__cpufreq_driver_target(policy, policy->min,

cpu_set_freq[cpu],

Thx,
