--- Begin Message ---Package: i7z Version: 0.27.2+git2013.10.12-g5023138-3 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, Running i7z in i7-870 Nehalem, it prints "i7z DEBUG: Detected a nehalem (i7/i5/Xeon) - 45nm" first and "i7z DEBUG: guessing Haswell" near the end. Haswell is a different newer family (i7-4170 eg, Sandy and Ivy are generations between it and Nehalem). The file helper_functions.c around line 420 has: *nehalem = true; *sandy_bridge = false; *ivy_bridge = false; *haswell = true; And other blocks always set one to true and the other three to false. Could that be a bug and the reason for the mixed reports? Just setting last to false could fix it, if no more tests needed to differentiate. The program also reports two conflicting values once running, first "True Frequency (without accounting Turbo) 2942 MHz" and below "Max Frequency without considering Turbo 3075.73 MHz (133.73 x [23])". The official value is ~2.9 GHz, the 23 multiplier is between official normal max (22) and minimum turbo (24 and up). Again I looked at the code, and in i7z_Single_Socket.c below line 285 I see it adds one when TURBO_MODE is 1. Maybe wrong? Maybe it should use another string to explain why? In other similar part of the file, below line 944, it says "True Frequency" instead (safety margin to allow transitions to/from turbo modes?). That function seems to be commented out. Other than those two, all looks OK. It even let me notice a bug in "cpupower frequency-info -n", which seems to be confused too and reports turbo levels as X * 100 instead of X * 133 (Nehalem vs newer), with the absurd result of normal max being well above the single core turbo.
