Subject: [PATCH 1/2] cpufreq: Make iowait boost a policy option
Date: Thu, 18 May 2017 11:30:19 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170518183020.6188-1-joelaf@google.com> (raw)
Make iowait boost a cpufreq policy option and enable it for intel_pstate
cpufreq driver. Governors like schedutil can use it to determine if
boosting for tasks that wake up with p->in_iowait set is needed.
