There is not reason for the minimum iowait boost value in the schedutil cpufreq governor to depend on the available range of CPU frequencies. In fact, that dependency is generally confusing, because it causes the iowait boost to behave somewhat differently on CPUs with the same maximum frequency and different minimum frequencies, for example. For this reason, replace the min field in struct sugov_cpu with a constant and choose its values to be 1/8 of SCHED_CAPACITY_SCALE (for consistency with the intel_pstate driver's internal governor). [Note that policy->cpuinfo.max_freq will not be a constant any more after a subsequent change, so this change is depended on by it.] Link: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190305083202.GU32494@hirez.programming.kicks-ass.net/T/#ee20bdc98b7d89f6110c0d00e5c3ee8c2ced93c3d Suggested-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Rafael J.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
