I know it mostly doesn't use these things, but would it make sense to stick the base frequency in ?

On Arm64, we have seen some inconsistency especially because we use the energy model, we compute the CPU's capacity at boot and we can have different compute capacity in our system whereas x86 always uses SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE even on hybrid system if I'm not wrong So I was not sure that this will make any difference for x86 platform > > _______________________________________________ > linux-riscv mailing list > linux-riscv@lists.infradead.org > http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-riscv
