Update: I tried the https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/42547/ on my T430 (i7-3840QM, Debian Buster 4.19.0-9-amd64) using coreboot v4.12 + SeaBIOS as base.

I used s-tui to track the CPU frequency.

Without the patch on coreboot v4.12 the CPU reached its "usual" 3.3 - 3.4 GHz (4C/8T) using the stress function of s-tui.

With the patch the CPU reached at most 3.2GHz (intel_pstate) / 2.8GHz (acpi-cpufreq).

Maybe there is an issue with mobile CPUs?

Hi, thanks for the pointer!

I only fear that running my CPU at the maximum possible Turbo Ratio will overheat it.

I can give it a try but I'm actually looking for an option to limit the maximum Turbo Ratio the CPU is allowed to reach (hence the disabling of TurboBoost altogether).

Hi again. There's another patch that fits to the topic that you will probably want to try out: https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/42547/

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for an option to configure my Intel IvyBridge CPU (enable / disable Hyperthreading, TurboBoost, set configurable TDP level etc.) using coreboot / nvramcui. My board is a Lenovo Thinkpad T430. So far, "only virtualization" is configurable and can not be enabled / disabled "in flight" but requires a rebuild of coreboot.

Is anyone currently working on something similar?

Is anything planned in that regard?

Kind regards
