Subject: [PATCH v2] cpupower: Add support for setting EPP via systemd service
Date: Sat, 21 Feb 2026 07:21:55 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <b44f2af7-360b-4f4c-8541-04008ead7dcb@siemens.com> (raw)
From: Jan Kiszka <jan.kiszka@siemens.com>
Extend the systemd service so that it can be used for tuning the Energy
Performance Preference (EPP) as well. Available options can be read from
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpufreq/policy0/energy_performance_available_preferences.
The desired one can then be set in cpupower-service.conf.
