The desired_perf is an abstract performance number. Its value should
be in the range of [lowest perf, highest perf] of CPPC.
The correct calculation is
  desired_perf = freq * cppc_highest_perf / cppc_dmi_max_khz

This patch has already been applied AFAICS.

Thanks,

You mean this applied patch "cpufreq: CPPC: Avoid overflow when
calculating desired_perf"

This is another the bug, not the overflow bug.

Thanks
Hoan

I am not sure what the calculations should be like, but I don't have
any objections against applying this..

The patch looks good, I suppose we can add a small optimization. We can do a simple check
to see if the newly computed desired_perf is same as old one, If it is same we can just return
here instead of calling cppc_set_perf with same desired_perf value.

Thanks,
Prashanth

That's a good point. I can add a check into this patch.
