Public bug reported:
I have a Lenovo Thinkpad X230 with an Intel Core i5-3210M CPU. I'm using
Xubuntu 17.10 (Description: Ubuntu 17.10, Release: 17.10). I use tlp
1.0-1~artful in order to improve battery performance, particularly
enabling the Intel P-state performance scaling. In Xubuntu 17.04 it
worked flawlessly, but when I upgraded to 17.10 the processor doesn't
scale anymore. I ran all the updates and it's not working. I also did a
clean install using another hard drive and the problem persist.
I searched the tlp forums and similar problems pointed to a kernel bug,
so I'm filing this report.
I tested different mainline kernels in order to see what kernel version
is causing the problem:
Up to mainline kernel 4.12.14 generic, P-state scaling is OK
Kernel 4.13 generic up to kernel 4.14.12 generic, P-state scaling is not working
Kernel 4.14.13 generic up to 4.15 rc7 generic, P-state scaling is OK
