When `amd_hfi` driver is loaded, it will use PCCT subspace type 4 table to retrieve the shared memory address which contains the CPU core ranking table. This table includes a header that specifies the number of ranking data entries to be parsed and rank each CPU core with the Performance and Energy Efficiency capability as implemented by the CPU power management firmware. Once the table has been parsed, each CPU is assigned a ranking score within its class. Subsequently, when the scheduler selects cores, it chooses from the ranking list based on the assigned scores in each class, thereby ensuring the optimal selection of CPU cores according to their predefined classifications and priorities.

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 reStructuredText 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.
