Control: tag -1 moreinfo If this system has an Intel CPU, I'm afraid this is expected behaviour. They no longer allow the OS to set an exact frequency, only a 'P- state' (performance level). The Linux cpufreq driver for these processors (intel_pstate) translates the requested frequency into a P- state, but the actual frequency is controlled by an embedded controller that may choose a higher or lower value.
Unless you can show that a different kernel version reproducibly shows different results, or you're not using an Intel CPU, I don't think there's anything to be done here. Ben. -- Ben Hutchings friends: People who know you well, but like you anyway.
