Prarit Bhargava prarit@redhat.com cpupower: Fix coredump on VMWare
Greg, maybe...
commit ef8d3a128c1f1de7ffdedb2f14e846e10fd3fec3 Author: Prarit Bhargava prarit@redhat.com Date: Mon Oct 8 12:06:19 2018
cpupower: Fix coredump on VMWare [ Upstream commit f69ffc5d3db8f1f03fd6d1df5930f9a1fbd787b6 ]should be dropped from v4.9 (and v4.4) since it causes:
$ make V=1 -C tools/power/cpupower all
gcc -fPIC -DVERSION="4.9.136.142.g36c7703" -DPACKAGE="cpupower" -DPACKAGE_BUGREPORT="linux-pm@vger.kernel.org" -D_GNU_SOURCE -pipe -DNLS -Wall -Wchar-subscripts -Wpointer-arith -Wsign-compare -Wno-pointer-sign -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wshadow -O1 -g -DDEBUG -I./lib -I ./utils -o utils/helpers/amd.o -c utils/helpers/amd.c utils/helpers/amd.c: In function ‘decode_pstates’: utils/helpers/amd.c:106:39: error: ‘union msr_pstate’ has no member named ‘fam17h_bits’ if ((cpu_family == 0x17) && (!pstate.fam17h_bits.en))
Due to nonexistent CPU (flag) support.
Replied to Sasha on specific commits for both, v4.4 and v4.9.
Now dropped from both queues.
Results from Linaro’s test farm. No regressions on arm64, arm, x86_64, and i386.
Great, thanks for letting me know.
