Ivybridge B0+ CPUs are capable of supporting multiple TDP levels. This complicates the default case because now the registers that were reporting max non-turbo ratio are reporting that value for the highest possible TDP level. For now this change just forces everything to use the Nominal TDP values instead of the higher (or lower) levels. - When building P-state tables, determine the P[1] (max non turbo) ratio based on the Nominal ratio if available. - Set the turbo activation ratio to the Nominal max ratio. - Mirror the power level settings in new MCHBAR register after they are written, which happens after BIOS_RESET_CPL is set. - Set the current ratio to Nominal ratio at boot. 1) Verify that P-state table is generated properly with P[0]=1801MHz (ratio 0x1C) and P[1]=1800MHz (ratio 0x12) PSS: 1801MHz power 17000 control 0x1c00 status 0x1c00 PSS: 1800MHz power 17000 control 0x1200 status 0x1200 2) Verify power limits in MCHBAR match PKG_POWER_LIMIT: > rdmsr 0 0x610 0x800080aa00dc8088 > mmio_read32 0xfed159a4 0x000080aa > mmio_read32 0xfed159a0 0x00dc8088 3) Verify turbo activation ratio is set to nominal ratio: > rdmsr 0 0x64c 0x0000000000000012 4) Check that proper ratio was set at boot on one core only: > grep 'frequency set to' /sys/firmware/log model_x06ax: frequency set to 1800 model_x06ax: frequency set to 1800 model_x06ax: frequency set to 1800 model_x06ax: frequency set to 1800 Change-Id: I592e60a7740f31b140986a8269dca91b4adbb270 Signed-off-by: Duncan Laurie <dlaurie@chromium.org> Reviewed-on: http://review.coreboot.org/1304 Tested-by: build bot (Jenkins) Reviewed-by: Ronald G.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot README ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS (firmware) found in most computers. coreboot performs a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes additional boot logic, called a payload. With the separation of hardware initialization and later boot logic, coreboot can scale from specialized applications that run directly firmware, run operating systems in flash, load custom bootloaders, or implement firmware standards, like PC BIOS services or UEFI. This allows for systems to only include the features necessary in the target application, reducing the amount of code and flash space required. coreboot was formerly known as LinuxBIOS. Payloads -------- After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any desired "payload" can be started by coreboot. See http://www.coreboot.org/Payloads for a list of supported payloads. Supported Hardware ------------------ coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards. For details please consult: * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Chipsets_and_Devices Build Requirements ------------------ * gcc / g++ * make Optional: * doxygen (for generating/viewing documentation) * iasl (for targets with ACPI support) * gdb (for better debugging facilities on some targets) * ncurses (for 'make menuconfig') * flex and bison (for regenerating parsers) Building coreboot ----------------- Please consult http://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO for details. Testing coreboot Without Modifying Your Hardware ------------------------------------------------ If you want to test coreboot without any risks before you really decide to use it on your hardware, you can use the QEMU system emulator to run coreboot virtually in QEMU. Please see http://www.coreboot.org/QEMU for details. Website and Mailing List ------------------------ Further details on the project, a FAQ, many HOWTOs, news, development guidelines and more can be found on the coreboot website: http://www.coreboot.org You can contact us directly on the coreboot mailing list: http://www.coreboot.org/Mailinglist Copyright and License --------------------- The copyright on coreboot is owned by quite a large number of individual developers and companies.
