It's fairly common.  We measure cpuspeed using two different
techniques.  One actually measures the speed, that's the number you
see in dmesg and at first.  Then to reflect setperf changes, we just
ask the cpu how fast it thinks it's running which leads to nice round
numbers.  Same with the initial setperf value.  We measured your cpu
as running slightly slower than max and scale setperf accordingly.



Odd hw.setperf quirk

2010-07-08 Thread Joe Gidi
I was just given an HP machine that shows a little quirk in 'sysctl
hw.setperf':

hw.machine=amd64
hw.model=Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU E5200 @ 2.50GHz
hw.ncpu=2
hw.byteorder=1234
hw.pagesize=4096
hw.disknames=sd0,cd0
hw.diskcount=2
hw.cpuspeed=2493
hw.setperf=99
hw.vendor=Hewlett-Packard
hw.product=HP Compaq dc7900 Ultra-Slim Desktop
hw.serialno=2UA9461120
hw.uuid=32ef50ee-e109-de11-bbda-5548b4800026
hw.physmem=1015681024
hw.usermem=1015603200
hw.ncpufound=2

None of my other machines have ever shown hw.setperf=99; they always boot
up at 100. It's not a problem, just a little quirk. The machine runs fine
and SpeedSteps properly with apmd. Running 'sysctl hw.setperf=100' bumps
up hw.cpuspeed to a displayed value of 2500. Has anyone seen this kind of
behavior before?
