I've a question about #FreeBSD powerd settings. If I type sysctl dev.cpu.0 I get the following output.
dev.cpu.0.temperature: 53.0C
dev.cpu.0.cx_method: C1/hlt C2/io C3/io
dev.cpu.0.cx_usage_counters: 2968 0 0
dev.cpu.0.cx_usage: 100.00% 0.00% 0.00% last 720us
dev.cpu.0.cx_lowest: C1
dev.cpu.0.cx_supported: C1/1/1 C2/2/18 C3/3/350
dev.cpu.0.freq_levels: 1700/2071 1600/1520 1400/1277
dev.cpu.0.freq: 1700
dev.cpu.0.%parent: acpi0
dev.cpu.0.%pnpinfo: _HID=ACPI0007 _UID=0 _CID=none
dev.cpu.0.%location: handle=\_SB_.PLTF.C000
dev.cpu.0.%driver: cpu
dev.cpu.0.%desc: ACPI CPU
I was looking what to set the minimum -m value and from what I've read it would have to be 1400 from that list. Or am I wrong can I set it lower ???
I have this in my /etc/rc.conf right now.
# Power
performance_cx_lowest=C1
economy_cx_lowest=Cmax
powerd_enable=YES
powerd_flags="-n adaptive -a hiadaptive -b adaptive -m 1400 -M 1700"
#RunBSD #Powerd
