[Contributors wanted!] Intel DTT

[cyring]

I would like to add the DTT state in CoreFreq Technologies

We have specs at Intel for gen. 12 and we just need to probe registers at the PCI device BDF 0x0:0x4:0x0 for the technology availability and, to my understanding, offset 0x54 for its enablement state

I do not have such hardware. Let me know if you want to contribute ; mostly with testings ?

You can verify it on Linux using:

lspci -s 0:4.0 -nn

Apparently a linux kernel driver is managing those devices

Thermal Controller Base Address

• To ReMap in Kernel address space the Thermal Controller Base Address (TMBAR_0_4_0_PCI) – Offset 10

1. TMMBA [42:17] bits at offset 0x10 for BDF 00:04.0
2. TBA [31:12] bits at offset 0x10 | TBAH [31:0] at offset 0x14 for BDF 00:20.2

I have a raptor lake (14700) :

root@unRaid:~# lspci -s 0:4.0 -nn

Running unraid on it, let me know if I can help.

If your guys have one of those cheap AlderLake/N like N-150 I plane to acquire to develop Intel DTT feature

Side talk with IA about the variation among the Geekbench results within the TwinLake architecture.
For N150 we are looking at SMT results ranging from ~1600 up to +3300
Worse than that are some N350 with twice as much Cores are getting lower results than N150.

IA pretends that Power Limits are locked by firmware:

• PL2 set as much as PL1
• TAU time window set to zero
• HWP registers read-modify-write sequence remains with no change
• Or CPPC programming at ACPI ignored
• Probably legacy Turbo, SpeedStep not available
• P-states programming constrained by PL design
• 15W TDP design platform is making the difference compared to the 6W manufacturer reference
