Detailed Description

RTE Power Management via userspace ACPI cpufreq

Definition in file rte_power_acpi_cpufreq.h.

Function Documentation

int rte_power_acpi_cpufreq_init ( unsigned  lcore_id)

Initialize power management for a specific lcore. It will check and set the governor to userspace for the lcore, get the available frequencies, and prepare to set new lcore frequency.

Parameters
lcore_idlcore id.
Returns
  • 0 on success.
  • Negative on error.
int rte_power_acpi_cpufreq_exit ( unsigned  lcore_id)

Exit power management on a specific lcore. It will set the governor to which is before initialized.

Parameters
lcore_idlcore id.
Returns
  • 0 on success.
  • Negative on error.
uint32_t rte_power_acpi_cpufreq_freqs ( unsigned  lcore_id,
uint32_t *  freqs,
uint32_t  num 
)

Get the available frequencies of a specific lcore. The return value will be the minimal one of the total number of available frequencies and the number of buffer. The index of available frequencies used in other interfaces should be in the range of 0 to this return value. It should be protected outside of this function for threadsafe.

Parameters
lcore_idlcore id.
freqsThe buffer array to save the frequencies.
numThe number of frequencies to get.
Returns
The number of available frequencies.
uint32_t rte_power_acpi_cpufreq_get_freq ( unsigned  lcore_id)

Return the current index of available frequencies of a specific lcore. It will return 'RTE_POWER_INVALID_FREQ_INDEX = (~0)' if error. It should be protected outside of this function for threadsafe.

Parameters
lcore_idlcore id.
Returns
The current index of available frequencies.
int rte_power_acpi_cpufreq_set_freq ( unsigned  lcore_id,
uint32_t  index 
)

Set the new frequency for a specific lcore by indicating the index of available frequencies. It should be protected outside of this function for threadsafe.

Parameters
lcore_idlcore id.
indexThe index of available frequencies.
Returns
  • 1 on success with frequency changed.
  • 0 on success without frequency changed.
  • Negative on error.
int rte_power_acpi_cpufreq_freq_up ( unsigned  lcore_id)

Scale up the frequency of a specific lcore according to the available frequencies. It should be protected outside of this function for threadsafe.

Parameters
lcore_idlcore id.
Returns
  • 1 on success with frequency changed.
  • 0 on success without frequency changed.
  • Negative on error.
int rte_power_acpi_cpufreq_freq_down ( unsigned  lcore_id)

Scale down the frequency of a specific lcore according to the available frequencies. It should be protected outside of this function for threadsafe.

Parameters
lcore_idlcore id.
Returns
  • 1 on success with frequency changed.
  • 0 on success without frequency changed.
  • Negative on error.
int rte_power_acpi_cpufreq_freq_max ( unsigned  lcore_id)

Scale up the frequency of a specific lcore to the highest according to the available frequencies. It should be protected outside of this function for threadsafe.

Parameters
lcore_idlcore id.
Returns
  • 1 on success with frequency changed.
  • 0 on success without frequency changed.
  • Negative on error.
int rte_power_acpi_cpufreq_freq_min ( unsigned  lcore_id)

Scale down the frequency of a specific lcore to the lowest according to the available frequencies. It should be protected outside of this function for threadsafe.

Parameters
lcore_idlcore id.
Returns
  • 1 on success with frequency changed.
  • 0 on success without frequency chnaged.
  • Negative on error.
