Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7BIT Content-Disposition: inline Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org The conservative cpufreq governor's "ignore_nice" sysfs parameter is reversed from what I would expect: % cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/conservative/ignore_nice 1 .. While it's not ignoring nice'd processes. Changing it to 0 causes it to ignore them. That would seem to make sense only if it's supposed to mean "ignore niceness of processes" vs "ignore nice'd processes"... Is that so? If it is, then wouldn't the name make more sense as "ignore_niceness" or something equally less ambiguous? :) Please CC me as I'm not on the list. -- Kevin 'radsaq' Radloff radsaq@gmail.com http://saqataq.us/
