I think it is just convenient.  If you never use the performance
governor, there is no need to compile it.  I have no need for an init
script that changes the governor on runtime, too.  I just say, use this
and nothing else, ever.  Don't know if this convenience is worth the
trouble, though ;)

It appears a bit hackish.  I would be interested in a cleaner way to

By the way, is there any real need to specify default governor at
a compile time in the first place?  Performance governor (which was
the only default so far) is a very simple one (not large to consider
its size effects for embedded systems for example), and switching
governors at run time is trivial as well.  What's the motivation
behind this new config option?

I still have a bug with cpufreq when using ondemand governor as default.

The performance governor, which has been the essential default until
1c2562459faedc35927546cfa5273ec6c2884cce,  was initialized with
fs_initcall() instead of module_init() to make sure the driver is up and
running when the bootcode (speedstep_init in my case) calls into it.

Since the above mentioned commit, other governors can also be chosen to
be the default but they are not correctly initialized before first use
then.

I poked Dave (added to CC) but no response since a few days.  I am
getting edgy now because this really breaks stuff and the attached patch
should get into .24 or at least the problem should be taken more
seriously.  I have not yet seen a discussion about this particular
problem, so if I missed something, please tell me and consider this mail
obsolete.

Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: Initialise default governor before use

When the cpufreq driver starts up at boot time, it calls into the
default governor which might not be initialised yet. This hurts when
the governor's worker function relies on memory that is not yet set up
by its init function.

This migrates all governors from module_init() to fs_initcall() when
being the default, as was already done in cpufreq_performance when it
was the only possible choice.

Fixes at least one actual oops where ondemand is the default governor
and cpufreq_governor_dbs() uses the uninitialised kondemand_wq
work-queue during boot-time.

2.6.24-rc5-git7: Reported regressions from 2.6.23

2007-12-20 Thread Rafael J. Wysocki
[Note: From December 22 to December 29 inclusive I will be traveling with
(most probably) limited Internet access, so the next report will likely be
posted after December 30.  I also may be unresponsive next week. ;-)]

This message contains a list of some regressions from 2.6.23 reported since
2.6.24-rc1 was released, for which there are no fixes in the mainline I know
of.  If any of them have been fixed already, please let me know.

If you know of any other unresolved regressions from 2.6.23, please let me know
either and I'll add them to the list.  Also, please let me know if any of the
entries below are invalid.
