It's about radeon's KMS and PM of course, sorry for not specifing.

For the most part, the driver should just implement sensible power
management itself. We don't want users to have to define complex power
management policies. In almost every case, if the user triggers a
graphics operation then they want it to complete as quickly as possible.

I also think it should mostly be handled in the driver. About the
only knobs we may want to enable userspace to mess with are say 3
power modes: low power (battery mode), default, and maybe a high power
mode later on. The high power mode may require thermal monitoring
support depending on the chi
