I assume this makes it hard to understand all of this when reading the code w/o knowing these patches before. Why is (2) tagged with 'actual'? This is especially visible in feec() where local variable cpu_cap relates to (3) whereas cpu_actual_cap related to (2). [...]

This is the actual max compute capacity of the cpu at now i.e. possibly reduced because of temporary frequency capping So (2) equals (1) minus temporary performance capping and (3) additionally subtracts the time used by other class to (2) > > This is especially visible in feec() where local variable cpu_cap > relates to (3) whereas cpu_actual_cap related to (2). > > [...] >

But with capacity_orig_of() for (1), we had some coherence in the naming scheme of those cpu_capacity related functions (1) - (3). which helps when trying to understand the code. I can see that actual_capacity_of() (2) sounds awful though. >> standpoint, their names are not very coherent. >> >> I assume this makes it hard to understand all of this when reading the >> code w/o knowing these patches before. >> >> Why is (2) tagged with 'actual'? > > This is the actual max compute capacity of the cpu at now i.e. > possibly reduced because of temporary frequency capping Will the actual max compute capacity also depend on 'user space system pressure' later, i.e. on 'permanent' frequency capping? > So (2) equals (1) minus temporary performance capping and (3) > additionally subtracts the time used by other class to (2) OK. A coherent set of those tags even reflected in those getters would help but can be done later too.
