--- Comment #3 from Jack Reed jreed@redhat.com --- (In reply to comment #2)
All are built-in and get selected automatically, so the text is obsoleted. So the "3.1 Procedure" should go away. The command: cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor is useful and could be moved to 3.2.2 introduction, or maybe to 3.2 procedure. Or just reuse/modify the text from the RHEL guide.
Also all governors are built-in, so preamble for 3.2 procedure is not right.
Thanks Jaroslav, but I'm unsure of what to edit. If I'm removing "If a specific governor is not listed as available for your CPU" because those governors are built in, then the whole step is redundant because it says to use modprobe to enable a governor that is listed as unavailable for your CPU. If all governors are listed as available, then I assume the modprobe command is unnecessary, in which case the second step, which enables the governor, is all that's needed. Should I delete the first step?
Note that because I am updating this section to incorporate the cpupower command as we discussed, then this second step to enable the governor will use "cpupower frequency-info --governors"
The command "cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor" that you've asked to be retained has also been replaced, by "cpupower frequency-info --policy".
I just want to be sure that this is acceptable and you don't actually want the existing cat and echo commands to be retained despite the emphasis on cpupower.
Everything is built-in in the kernel. The "important admon" should go away, the right module should be autoselected by kernel.
No problem - deleted.
Right, it gone. AFAIK there is currently no replacement (I pointed this out in the past, but such scenarios are very rare and to be honest this is the way how it shouldn't be done).
Great, OK. I've removed the sentence "This governor is normally used in conjunction with the cpuspeed daemon" from 3.2.1.
