Local variable core_pct holds fixed point values. When we round it we add "1" to core_pct. This has almost no effect.
So, add int_toftp(1) to core_pct when rounding. For example, in a given sample point (values taken from tracepoint) with: aperf = 5024 mperf = 10619 the core_pct is (before rounding): core_pct = 12111 fp_toint(core_pct) = 47 After rounding: core_pct = 12112 fp_toint(core_pct) = 47 After rounding with int_toftp(1): core_pct = 12367 fp_toint(core_pct) = 48 Signed-off-by: Stratos Karafotis <strat...@semaphore.gr> --- Hi Rafael, I'm sorry for submitting again in merge window, but I thought that maybe we need this fix for 3.16. drivers/cpufreq/intel_pstate.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/cpufreq/intel_pstate.c b/drivers/cpufreq/intel_pstate.c index 4e7f492..dd80aa2 100644 --- a/drivers/cpufreq/intel_pstate.c +++ b/drivers/cpufreq/intel_pstate.c @@ -564,7 +564,7 @@ static inline void intel_pstate_calc_busy(struct cpudata *cpu) core_pct = div_u64_rem(core_pct, int_tofp(sample->mperf), &rem); if ((rem << 1) >= int_tofp(sample->mperf)) - core_pct += 1; + core_pct += int_tofp(1); sample->freq = fp_toint( mul_fp(int_tofp(cpu->pstate.max_pstate * 1000), core_pct)); -- 1.9.3 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
