From: Stratos Karafotis Date: Fri, 18 Jul 2014 15:37:25 +0000 (-0700) Subject: cpufreq: intel_pstate: Keep values in aperf/mperf in full precision X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ac658131d79e775efb0b819cc5a833e581d4de28;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git cpufreq: intel_pstate: Keep values in aperf/mperf in full precision Currently we shift right aperf and mperf variables by FRAC_BITS to prevent overflow when we convert them to fix point numbers (shift left by FRAC_BITS). But this is not necessary, because we actually use delta aperf and mperf which are much less than APERF and MPERF values. So, use the unmodified APERF and MPERF values in calculation. This also adds 8 bits in precision, although the gain is insignificant. Signed-off-by: Stratos Karafotis Signed-off-by: Dirk Brandewie Signed-off-by: Rafael J.
