For example, in the sequence of shell commands below, the scaling_min_freq attribute for policy1 and policy2 should be affected in the same way, because scaling_governor is set in the same way for both of them: # cat cpufreq/policy1/scaling_governor powersave # cat cpufreq/policy2/scaling_governor powersave # echo performance > cpufreq/policy0/scaling_governor # echo 94 > intel_pstate/min_perf_pct # cat cpufreq/policy0/scaling_min_freq 2914000 # cat cpufreq/policy1/scaling_min_freq 2914000 # cat cpufreq/policy2/scaling_min_freq 800000 The are affected differently, because intel_pstate_verify_policy() is invoked with limits set to &performance_limits (left behind by policy0) for policy1 and with limits set to &powersave_limits (left behind by policy1) for policy2. Since perf_limits is set to the set of limits matching the policy being updated, using it instead of limits fixes the inconsistency.
