x86/cpu, cpufreq: Remove AMD ELAN support

2026-05-08T05:34:03+00:00

Now that i486 and CONFIG_MELAN support has been removed upstream:

  8b793a92d862c ("x86/cpu: Remove M486/M486SX/ELAN support")

the CONFIG_ELAN_CPUFREQ and CONFIG_SC520_CPUFREQ cpufreq
drivers can be removed as well, as they depend on CONFIG_MELAN.

cpufreq: omap: remove driver

2026-01-08T20:26:34+00:00

The omap-cpufreq driver is not used in the corresponding defconfigs.
The pseudo platform device to use it was removed by
commit cb6675d6a868 ("ARM: OMAP2+: Remove legacy PM init")
10 years ago.

Checking if there is any need to reactivate it:
For omap3, dra7 there is ti-cpufreq to create cpufreq-dt device
For omap2/4/5 there is cpufreq-dt-plat to create cpufreq-dt device.
For omap1 this driver cannot be selected at all.

So no users, no need to reactivate the driver somehow. So remove it.

PM: cpufreq: powernv/tracing: Move powernv_throttle trace event

2025-07-21T20:40:56+00:00

As the trace event powernv_throttle is only used by the powernv code, move
it to a separate include file and have that code directly enable it.

Trace events can take up around 5K of memory when they are defined
regardless if they are used or not. It wastes memory to have them defined
in configurations where the tracepoint is not used.

cpufreq: Add Rust-based cpufreq-dt driver

2025-05-20T05:51:11+00:00

Introduce a Rust-based implementation of the cpufreq-dt driver, covering
most of the functionality provided by the existing C version. Some
features, such as retrieving platform data from `cpufreq-dt-platdev.c`,
are still pending.

The driver has been tested with QEMU, and frequency scaling works as
expected.

cpufreq: airoha: Add EN7581 CPUFreq SMCCC driver

2025-01-17T03:35:07+00:00

Add simple CPU Freq driver for Airoha EN7581 SoC that control CPU
frequency scaling with SMC APIs and register a generic "cpufreq-dt"
device.

All CPU share the same frequency and can't be controlled independently.
CPU frequency is controlled by the attached PM domain.

Add SoC compatible to cpufreq-dt-plat block list as a dedicated cpufreq
driver is needed with OPP v2 nodes declared in DTS.

cpufreq: maple: Remove maple driver

2024-11-13T01:02:23+00:00

This driver is no longer buildable since the PPC_MAPLE platform was
removed, see commit 62f8f307c80e ("powerpc/64: Remove maple platform").

Remove the driver.

Note that the comment in the driver says it supports "SMU & 970FX
based G5 Macs", but that's not true, that comment was copied from
pmac64-cpufreq.c, which still exists and continues to support those
machines.

cpufreq: add virtual-cpufreq driver

2024-10-29T06:35:14+00:00

Introduce a virtualized cpufreq driver for guest kernels to improve
performance and power of workloads within VMs.

This driver does two main things:

1. Sends the frequency of vCPUs as a hint to the host. The host uses the
hint to schedule the vCPU threads and decide physical CPU frequency.

2. If a VM does not support a virtualized FIE(like AMUs), it queries the
host CPU frequency by reading a MMIO region of a virtual cpufreq device
to update the guest's frequency scaling factor periodically. This enables
accurate Per-Entity Load Tracking for tasks running in the guest.

cpufreq: Add Loongson-3 CPUFreq driver support

2024-07-09T03:15:43+00:00

Some of LoongArch processors (Loongson-3 series) support DVFS, their
IOCSR.FEATURES has IOCSRF_FREQSCALE set. And they has a micro-core in
the package called SMC (System Management Controller), which can be
used to detect temperature, control fans, scale frequency and voltage,
etc.

The Loongson-3 CPUFreq driver is very simple now, it communicate with
SMC, get DVFS info, set target frequency from CPUFreq core, and so on.

There is a command list to interact with SMC, widely-used commands in
the CPUFreq driver include:

CMD_GET_VERSION: Get SMC firmware version.

CMD_GET_FEATURE: Get enabled SMC features.

CMD_SET_FEATURE: Enable SMC features, such as basic DVFS, BOOST.

CMD_GET_FREQ_LEVEL_NUM: Get the number of all frequency levels.

CMD_GET_FREQ_BOOST_LEVEL: Get the first boost frequency level.

CMD_GET_FREQ_LEVEL_INFO: Get the detail info of a frequency level.

CMD_GET_FREQ_INFO: Get the current frequency.

CMD_SET_FREQ_INFO: Set the target frequency.

In future we will add automatic frequency scaling, which is similar to
Intel's HWP (HardWare P-State).
