Hi guys,
I've just tried the cpufreq modules that come with 2.4.21-ac1 and I'm
having no luck getting them to work. I have a Compaq mx9005 based on the
mobile Athlon 4 (2400+). When I load the powernow-k7 module I get the
following:
powernow: AMD K7 CPU detected.
powernow: PowerNOW! Technology present. Can scale: frequency and
voltage.
powernow: Found PSB header at c00f18c0
powernow: Table version: 0x12
powernow: Flags: 0x0 (Mobile voltage regulator)
powernow: Settling Time: 100 microseconds.
powernow: Has 14 PST tables. (Only dumping ones relevant to this CPU).
Nothing else, it doesn't seem to dump and PST tables (as other examples
I've seen show the driver reporting extra info about the CPU).
If I execute the following command:
echo "5000000:17000000:performance" > /proc/cpufreq
Then the module panics and I get the following in dmesg
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
00000004
printing eip:
c019423c

Do I need to add some kind of processor defintion? If so how do I do it?

This typically means that of all the PST tables, none of them had
the same cpuid. I should put in a check for this, and printk something.
BIOS upgrade ? If there isn't one, let me know what manufacturer/model,
and I'll ask AMD if they'll 'send the heavies around'.

Ouch, that shouldn't happen no matter what.

Can you run that oops through ksymoops to decode the addresses
to symbols ?

noted. Can you mail me the dmidecode output too please ?

Is there a BIOS update available you can try ?
I really wish I had the time to get sysfs overrides written..

Hi guys,
See attached the decoded sys oops from my encounters with powernow-k7.
