CoreFreq version 1.92.4 is available

[cyring]

@inglor Hello

New version 1.91.1 is available

Thank you for your package.

[cyring]

• Tips: Do your guys know CoreFreq can scale up to 1024 CPU !

make CORE_COUNT=1024

Here is a KVM accelerated simulation of 254 monitored CPU

qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -cpu max,hv-runtime -smp 254 -m 22G -cdrom archlinux-corefreq-dev.iso

See the Help windows for various scrolling shortcut keys

• Tips: Do your guys know some features are build time option ?

make help

For example, the AMD/Zen UMC relative frequencies are available from the Package view

make ARCH_PMC=UMC

corefreq-cli -t package

And you can also decide which area will be shown !

Here, just the bar charts:

make NO_HEADER=1 NO_FOOTER=1 NO_LOWER=1 clean corefreq-cli

Enjoy CoreFreq

@inglor @ich777 Hello

1.91.2 is an update of the master version, including fixes for latest issues:

• Safely collect Linux memory information (Spinlock issue [SOLVED] Spinlock invoked from hrtimer handler #347)
• Count all processes
• CentOS Kernel 3.10 api compatibility
• Startup Frequency view: display the AMD/Zen UMC channels frequencies instead of the unavailable package C-States. Press % to toggle to this UMC footer.
  EDIT: only tested on my Matisse and Lucienne, no other Users report, so it is still a WiP feature, need to build with directive ARCH_PMC=UMC

[ich777]

Changed the build script and it has already compiled the AMD version from CoreFreq v1.91.2 with UMC

[cyring]

Did you try it?

[ich777]

No I actually can‘t because I don‘t have any AMD system on hand.

[cyring]

Concerning Intel processors, this version has the frozen Spinlock fix for this Unraid case

[cyring]

Changed the build script and it has already compiled the AMD version from CoreFreq v1.91.2 with UMC

The ARCH_PMC=UMC is made for AMD only.
Using it on Intel will mess with the UI/Package C-states view:

CoreFreq refreshed in 1.91.3

Example:

• Intel processor HWP and OC capable

insmod corefreqk.ko Ratio_HWP=12,47,47 Ratio_Boost=-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,46,46,47 Ratio_PPC=47 HWP_Enable=1

• AMD with P-state ratios unlocked

insmod corefreqk.ko Ratio_Boost=-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,10,24 TurboBoost_Enable=0,1

[cyring]

Latest commit a485cec merged into master is adding driver parameter Ratio_PPC which is known as Performance
Target ratio in the Client.

FYI, pausing CoreFreq developments for a while.

Well deserved, enjoy your time off... :)

@inglor @ich777 Hello

A SMBIOS strings fix is available in version 1.91.4

Thank you

[ich777]

@cyring my build machine already notified my and built it already for Unraid 6.10.3 and I will trigger the build manually for 6.11.0-rc2 now. :)

[cyring]

@inglor and for anyone of packaging purpose

Version 1.91.5 is released into master branch

1. AMD Threadripper 3960X UMC improvements
2. Intel Alder lake IMC channels counting fix
3. AMD Ryzen Cezanne UMC decoding fix
4. SMBIOS DIMM strings improvements

[cyring]

@inglor Hello,

Version 1.91.6 is available for packaging

[ich777]

I've triggered the build manually, usually my tool-chain checks every 2 hours for updates. :)

[ich777]

Oh, BTW does this version have already the changes from develop in it since I have to build it for @SimonFair?

[cyring]

Oh, BTW does this version have already the changes from develop in it since I have to build it for @SimonFair?

Yes. Only debug traces have been removed.

[SimonFair]

Hi @ich777 should I be able to install via CA?

[ich777]

@SimonFair sorry for the late reply. Compiled it and will send it in a few minutes on the Unraid forums to you.

@inglor

CoreFreq version 1.91.7 is available with a fix for Intel/Alder Lake with Pcores only, like i5-12500

[cyring]

@inglor
Hello version 1.92.0 is available into master branch

[cyring]

[ich777]

Already compiled. 😉

[cyring]

Thanks a lot

Intel Mitigation mechanisms have been improved, you should discover various features.

AMD Zen3+ is supported.
IMC timings for Rembrandt appears fine but not geometry.

From SandyBridge, up to Broadwell, IMC and clocking have been improved also.

CoreFreq 1.92.3 allows building against Kernel versions 6.0.3 and 6.1.0-rc1

[cyring]

@ich777 @inglor Hello,

Fyi version 1.92.4 is a hotfix

• to let the build against kernel < 4.18
• to prevent a driver freeze with Skylake/X and derivatives of CPUID 6.55
