CPPC
====
CPPC defined in the ACPI spec describes a mechanism for the OS to manage the
performance of a logical processor on a contiguous and abstract performance
scale. CPPC exposes a set of registers to describe abstract performance scale,
to request performance levels and to measure per-cpu delivered performance.
For more details on CPPC please refer to the ACPI specification at:
http://uefi.org/specifications
Some of the CPPC registers are exposed via sysfs under::
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/acpi_cppc/
for each cpu X::
$ ls -lR /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/acpi_cppc/
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/acpi_cppc/:

* highest_perf : Highest performance of this processor (abstract scale).
* nominal_perf : Highest sustained performance of this processor
(abstract scale).
* lowest_nonlinear_perf : Lowest performance of this processor with nonlinear
power savings (abstract scale).
* lowest_perf : Lowest performance of this processor (abstract scale).
* lowest_freq : CPU frequency corresponding to lowest_perf (in MHz).
* nominal_freq : CPU frequency corresponding to nominal_perf (in MHz).
The above frequencies should only be used to report processor performance in
frequency instead of abstract scale. These values should not be used for any
functional decisions.
* feedback_ctrs : Includes both Reference and delivered performance counter.
Reference counter ticks up proportional to processor's reference performance.
Delivered counter ticks up proportional to processor's delivered performance.
* wraparound_time: Minimum time for the feedback counters to wraparound
(seconds).
* reference_perf : Performance level at which reference performance counter
accumulates (abstract scale).
Computing Average Delivered Performance
=======================================
Below describes the steps to compute the average performance delivered by
taking two different snapshots of feedback counters at time T1 and T2.
T1: Read feedback_ctrs as fbc_t1
Wait or run some workload
T2: Read feedback_ctrs as fbc_t2
::
delivered_counter_delta = fbc_t2[del] - fbc_t1[del]
reference_counter_delta = fbc_t2[ref] - fbc_t1[ref]
delivered_perf = (reference_perf x delivered_counter_delta) / reference_counter_delta
