Subject: [PATCH v2 5/9] cpufreq/amd-pstate: Remove "amd_dynamic_epp" cmdline and "dynamic_epp" sysfs
Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2026 20:12:24 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260723201228.22584-6-kprateek.nayak@amd.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260723201228.22584-1-kprateek.nayak@amd.com>

Since dynamic_epp has been converted to an
"energy_performance_preference", toggling the feature via the sysfs file
or the kernel cmdline is now redundant.

Remove the sysfs file and the "amd_dynamic_epp" cmdline and only depend
on "energy_performance_preference" to toggle dynamic_epp.

Signed-off-by: K Prateek Nayak <kprateek.nayak@amd.com>
---
Changelog rfc v1..v2:

o Removed "dynamic_epp" gloabal control, the "amd_synamic_epp" cmdline,
  and the "fdynamic_epp" sysfs since they are all redundant after the
  rework.
