Jun 3, 2021 at 7:24 comment added Marco It seems like this answer is no longer true. Intel pstate doesn't seem to let you tune the frequency manually if you have hwp enabled.
Oct 19, 2020 at 12:20 comment added s.k Did you also tried using cpufrequtils? or tlp?
Jan 25, 2020 at 9:55 comment added rogerdpack Sadly doesn't work for me either. cpupower frequency-info has bizarre output like frequency should be within 1.20 GHz and 1.20 GHz....current CPU frequency: 3.16 GHz maybe it's the funky laptop I'm using [dell inspiron]. The only change I notice is if I change /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq then my idle freq. goes down slightly. Under load all cores still go all the way to the CPU max :(
Nov 21, 2019 at 3:30 comment added jberryman How are you verifying that performance governor actually sets a constant cpu frequency? When I do watch -x grep -E '^model name|^cpu MHz' /proc/cpuinfo the numbers bounce around all over, even when I change the governor to performance
