[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1389077] Re: [HP ProBook 4530s / Lenovo G580] Intel Powerclamp is Slowing CPU
I'm on 18.04, and saw huge cpu use all of a sudden by 4 tasks called kidle_inject running at 40% CPU each. I'm quite used to having this Thinkpad x230 tablet run hot since graphics e.g. for video don't seem to be accelerated. But in this case, the CPU and temperature as reported by psensor was not elevated before the kidle_inject processes went into overdrive. I'm not used to seeing them running normally. I followed the advice at kidle_inject causing very high load - Ask Ubuntu https://askubuntu.com/questions/584636/kidle-inject-causing-very-high-load to rmmod intel_powerclamp, and that killed the processes, but the temperature went up a bit, now to 100 degrees C, again despite low CPU load. So something is going wrong here... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1389077 Title: [HP ProBook 4530s / Lenovo G580] Intel Powerclamp is Slowing CPU Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I upgraded from KUbuntu 14.04 to 14.10.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1389077] Re: [HP ProBook 4530s / Lenovo G580] Intel Powerclamp is Slowing CPU
Happened to my Lenovo ThinkPad X220. Yesterday I was playing Factorio, with the laptop fan spinning full-throttle, and intel_powerclamp started idle injection, which, ok, fair enough. Factorio is very CPU hungry and this laptop model is like 6 years old. What is a problem is that today I'm not playing Factorio, the CPU temperature is at 45 degrees, the fan is idle, and yet powerclamp is still doing the idle injection schtick. Loadavg over 5, kinject_idle at 50-60% on all four threads (this is a dualcore system with hyperthreading), everything is painfully laggy. Rebooting fixed everything (until next time, I suppose). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1389077 Title: [HP ProBook 4530s / Lenovo G580] Intel Powerclamp is Slowing CPU Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I upgraded from KUbuntu 14.04 to 14.10.

After spending a long time figuring out what caused this, I found out this is caused by the Intel Powerclamp driver. I never did anything to enable this, and haven't observed this slowdown before the upgrade. I found the powerclamp driver in the /sys/class/thermal/cooling_device5 directory: root@bkat-HP-ProBook-4530s:/sys/class/thermal/cooling_device5# cat type intel_powerclamp root@bkat-HP-ProBook-4530s:/sys/class/thermal/cooling_device5# cat cur_state -1 root@bkat-HP-ProBook-4530s:/sys/class/thermal/cooling_device5# cat max_state 50 I tried to echo 0 to cur_state, but it still reported -1 when I catted the value. There seems to be no obvious way to disable this, and this should not have been enabled in the first place.
