Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq/amd-pstate: Supply nominal/lowest freq for TRX40-based motherboards
Date: Wed, 7 Oct 2026 16:41:50 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261007144150.15113-1-ggherdovich@suse.cz> (raw)
Some motherboard based on the TRX40 chipset has been reported to ship
firmware lacking lowest and nominal frequency values in the
_CPC ACPI package. That is, it supports CPPC V2 but not CPPC V3.
Firmware updates aren't available.
amd-pstate requires explicit knowledge of nominal frequency, so it
can't load on this hardware. The driver already has a mechanism (the
so-called "quirks") to accommodate for missing nominal freq in ACPI
tables, so here we use it to match against CPU family, model, core
count, and BIOS version.
