2013-02-28Fix mis-merge of intel_powerclamp.c resulting in compile errorLinus Torvalds
The new intel_powerclamp thermal cooling device driver was merged in commit 2af78448fff6 (Pull thermal management updates from Zhang Rui) without any data conflicts. But there was a more subtle conflict I missed: the driver uses MAX_USER_RT_PRIO, but commit 8bd75c77b7c6 ("sched/rt: Move rt specific bits into new header file") had moved that define from <linux/sched.h> to <linux/sched/rt.h>. Which caused this build failure: drivers/thermal/intel_powerclamp.c: In function ‘clamp_thread’: drivers/thermal/intel_powerclamp.c:360:21: error: ‘MAX_USER_RT_PRIO’ undeclared (first use in this function) drivers/thermal/intel_powerclamp.c:360:21: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in And because I don't do a full "make allmodconfig" build after each pull, I didn't notice until too late. So now the fix is here, separately from the merge commit. Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2013-02-06PM: intel_powerclamp: off by one in start_power_clamp()Dan Carpenter
This value has already been clamped correctly to 0 through 49 in powerclamp_set_cur_state() so this patch doesn't actually change anything. But we should fix it anyway for consistency. set_target_ratio is used as an offset into an array with MAX_TARGET_RATIO (50) elements.

2013-02-06PM: Introduce Intel PowerClamp DriverJacob Pan
Intel PowerClamp driver performs synchronized idle injection across all online CPUs. The goal is to maintain a given package level C-state ratio. Compared to other throttling methods already exist in the kernel, such as ACPI PAD (taking CPUs offline) and clock modulation, this is often more efficient in terms of performance per watt. Please refer to Documentation/thermal/intel_powerclamp.txt for more details.
