Subject: Re: [PATCH 7/8] acpi-cpufreq: Use already defined IDA feature flag instead of checking cpuid
Date: Fri, 17 Apr 2009 10:35:36 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1239989736.4529.8654.camel@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1239978132-6261-8-git-send-email-trenn@suse.de>
Hmm.. This patch is mixing up two different flags here. APERF/MPERF
feature is independent of IDA, can exist on platforms without IDA as
well.
APERFMPERF is bit 0 of cpuid_ecx(6)
IDA is bit 1 of cpuid_eax(6)
Thanks,
Venki
