            Bug ID: 217703
           Summary: XPS 17 9730 runs significantly warmer on Kernel
                    6.5-rc3 compared to Kernel 6.4.3
           Product: ACPI
           Version: 2.5
          Hardware: Intel
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: Power-Thermal
          Assignee: acpi_power-ther...@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
          Reporter: goran.brkul...@gmail.com
        Regression: No

On my new XPS 17 9730 laptop, I recently installed the Kernel 6.5-rc3. I
noticed, however, that during its operation, the laptop was getting
significantly warmer than before. I did some analysis using the 'stress' tool
to measure and compare the difference in CPU temperatures between Kernel 6.4.3
and Kernel 6.5-rc3. Here are my results:

OS: Ubuntu 23.10
CPU: i7-13700H

I tested few times with different setup and CPU temp on 6.5-rc3 is always
higher especially when stressing with fewer cores.
