Yesterday, while doing a large build on an FC3 machine, I received
many warnings from the kernel that the CPU clock speed was being
adjusted due to the temperature beyond the threshhold.
Considering the machine I was using (a Dell Precision Xeon box), I can
certainly believe the warnings. I wonder, though, how the kernel
knew the threshhold.
My first thought was the info beneath /proc/acpi/,
yet /proc/acpi/thermal_zone/ is empty.
I then thought of cpuspeed, but the /etc/cpuspeed.conf file is just a
sample and had only commented-out config parameters.
So... how does the kernel know what the thermal threshhold is for a
given system?
Thanks.
