Thanks for the code tweaking.

Pup-Sysinfo 2.8.3
CPU info for one of my other computers using the intel_pstate.
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-6400 CPU @ 2.70GHz
Max Speed: 3300 MHz
Current Speed of Core 0:3224 MHz, 1:3180 MHz, 2:3199 MHz, 3:3182 MHz
Core Count: 4
Thread Count: 4
It too now shows all the info and it seems to be correct.

Pup-Sysinfo 2.8.3

Results for the Intel N2840 CPU.
▶—— CPU Frequency ——◀

Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU N2840 @ 2.16GHz
Max Speed: Unknown
Current Speed of Core 0:2193 MHz, 1:2391 MHz
Core Count: 16

Frequency governor : powersave
Freq. scaling driver : intel_pstate
Still no max speed.
That core count is crazy wrong.
This is a 2 core processor.

This is in a ChromeBook.
You are probably correct that the bios is not providing very much info.
This bios is not the manufactures bios.
It is a hacked 3rd party bios so something other than ChromeOS can boot on it.
Not really a good bios to use for reporting issues with Pup-Sysinfo.
The core speed issues, did seem to be common to several people. That was a good fix you did.
Thanks!!

bigpup could you check this on your Chromebook (see screenshot):

1) shows percentage of max cpu speed, i've messed something with scaling tool in Slacko, max should be 100% and in Bionic is that value

2) shows max and min speed i've messed something in Slacko in Bionic max is 2160000

Edit:
I've found info:
dmidecode -t processor or more precise: sudo dmidecode -t processor | grep "Speed"
Will not only give you a MHz in use but also the Maximum you can push / overclock your CPU to.

$ sudo dmidecode -t processor | grep Speed
[sudo] password for cyrex:
Max Speed: 4000 MHz
Current Speed: 2666 MHz
Source;
https://askubuntu.com/questions/218567/ ... sor/218570

So PSI show value for overclockers. So maybe should have info about this.

Edit:
More info:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/cpu-freq/

I think that for my processor Max Speed not overclocked should be:
2249100KHz/1024~2196MHz/1024~2.14GHz
I don't know if my N3050 can work with speed of 2.16GHz like in specs. I think Intel divided 2160000 by 1000^2 (not 1024^2) and this maneuver gave 2.16GHz on the paper.

No, i'm wrong look at end of the post. 2.16 is when max_perf_pct = 100%.

Edit again:
Screenshot 2
1) Formula to stress the CPU:

Code: Select all

echo "scale=10000; 4*a(1)" | bc -l &
2) Core 2 load is 100% that give max speed in (3) 2082.500 what is equal to PSI CSoC. And 2160000 (i've setup this value via:

Code: Select all

echo 2160000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
echo 2160000 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq
divided by 1024 give ~ 2109MHz which is ~ 2082MHz.

3) Show speed of both cores in real time:

Code: Select all

watch -n1 "cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep \"^[c]pu MHz\"" 
Edit again (my silly brain is burning ;))
2.16 GHZ of N3050 when multiplied by 1024^2 give 2264924.16KHz and 92% of this value (taken from max_perf_pct) give 2083730.2272KHz when divided by 1000 give speed at 100% load 2083MHz

--------
I've read my whole comment again.
Aargh! I made a mistake with one another. Memory with frequency.. Divider for memory is 1024 and for frequency is 1000. Shame on me :oops:

@bigpup, puppy_apprentice and other testers,

http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 23#1016723

As an option to the dmidecode tool for assessing CPU Max-Speed and Core-Count, we could parse /sys/devices and /proc/cpuinfo directly.

Please test the revised function file below.

EDIT: test file removed

Thanks

Both approaches work equally well on the second generation intel i5 based laptops I run. Tested this time with both dmidecode and direct parsing func files while running both the intel_pstate and acpi_cpufreq governors in Pup-SysInfo 2.8.1 in the current UPupBB and 2.8.2 in the current UPupCC. I don't have any newer or more exotic hardware to test on and parsed cpuinfo directly when I modified wcpufreq back in the 4.13 kernel days so I'm more familiar with that but my older-but-good hardware is agnostic.

Cheers,

Thanks for the code tweak!

Pup-Sysinfo 2.8.3
Newest func file.

ChromeBook with hacked bios.

That new func file seems to fix it all for Pup-Sysinfo>Devices>Sensors report info.

Nothing I care about, but just reporting this for your info..
Pup-Sysinfo>Mainboard>CPU
Still missing info for:
voltage
external clock

It never has had entry for:
Thread Count:
64-bit capable

This being a ChromeBook. I am sure it has a very basic motherboard. Plus my hacked bios.

puppy_apprentice,
That N3050 CPU max speed reading showing as 2400 and you thinking it is wrong.

A N3060 has a specification of:
Burst Frequency 2.48 GHz

You do know that processor manufactures will re-badge processors down, if they do not meet specific specs. or they just need more of the lower spec. CPU version and have some higher spec ones to use.
So that 2400 number may be true if they took a N3060 CPU and badge it as a N3050.

That is an old way of getting a better processor for less money.
Especially when a new high spec processor first gets released.
They may have only 60%, 70%, 80% of a processor run that actually meets all the specs.
So they take the ones that are not exactly perfect and release them as a lower spec version of the CPU.
That is the big game in computer building.
Get the lower spec version of the CPU and hope it can be overclocked to work with the specs of the more costly CPU.
Sometimes you win sometimes you loose.

@bigpup

I know that manufacturers assemble a few similar products on the same line. One is full version and others could be little stripped versions programmatically or physically and could be sold for less.

Physically:
Some years ago there was 2 AMD procesors, one has lower speed but somebody could use pencil to overclock it.

Programmatically:
Recently i've bought SD card in the computer store that officially should have 16GB capacity, but when i wanted make partitions on it using GParted i've noticed that on this card is 16GB partition and another 16GB is unallocated. So for price of 16GB card i get 32GB card ;)

About my N3050. Yesterday i've compared N3050 to yours N2840 and found that info:

Code: Select all

CPU                           N3050              N2840
Clock speed 	          1.6 GHz 		2.16 GHz
Turbo clock speed 	2.16 GHz 		2.58 GHz

Overclocking
Overclocked clock speed 	             2.14 GHz 		2.58 GHz
Overclocked clock speed (Water) 	   1.6 GHz 		2.17 GHz
Overclocked clock speed (Air) 	     2.14 GHz      2.58GHz
Overclocked N3050 has lower speed than originally boosted (turbo mode).
Maybe it is typing error. In my opinion overclocking should give more speed but gives less ;)

I suppose that price of 32GB chip is so low that for manufactures it's not worth to open separate line for 16GB SD cards. It is cheaper to make on them only 16GB partition.

The funny thing is that if I would be sticked to Windows i would had not any purpose to divide SD card into partitions and wouldn't noticed that.

@perdido, Marv, bigpup,

Thanks for testing the revised function file. Very helpful and much appreciated.

In the next release of PupSysInfo the CPU Min/Max Speed and Core Count will be parsed directly from /sys/devices and /proc/cpuinfo.

Additionally, a new (updated) report of CPU 64-bit capability will be parsed from /proc/cpuinfo, with no dependence on dmidecode.

The reports for CPU Voltage and External Clock Speed will still depend on dmidecode, though in some cases that information may be limited since it is provided by the BIOS as populated by the system manufacturer or reflashing tool.

Happy to help in testing!

Good to see you are making a very useful program even better!! :D

This is the info I get, from a computer with a full featured bios, that allows setup changes to about anything.
It also has a full featured motherboard, that can be tweaked to make anything do exactly what you want it to.
This motherboard cost more than the ChromeBook.

This came up on #puppylinux chat. Someone having trouble to play some shoot out game from steam on Puppy found only 256M video RAM while his intel gc has 1G.
I tried it myself and I have the same result with 2.8.3 in dpupStretch RC4.

BTW, this is an Optimus machine, so there is also a nvidia card, which is not detected. Of course it is not used, but that is not the issue here.

What you are seeing in Pup-Sysinfo is probably the pre-allocated Video RAM set by a bios setting.
It starts out with this much RAM dedicated to graphics.
It may or may not use it all at some time, but it is locked to only be used for graphics.
Have to look in the bios to see what settings are offered.
Some will let you change this. Some it is preset coded into the bios.

Intel graphics uses a Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT)
Basically it auto adjusts how much memory is used for graphics.
Usually it will use up to 50% of the total computer RAM.
How much it uses is constantly adjusted as needed.
Some bios setups offer settings for DVMT.
The BIOS feature that controls all this is the DVMT Mode BIOS feature. It allows you to select the DVMT operating mode.

When set to Fixed, the graphics driver will reserve a fixed portion of the system memory as graphics memory. This ensures that the graphics processor has a guaranteed amount of graphics memory but the downside is once allocated, this memory cannot be used by the operating system even when it is not in use.

When set to DVMT, the graphics chip will dynamically allocate system memory as graphics memory, according to system and graphics requirements. The system memory is allocated as graphics memory when graphics-intensive applications are running but when the need for graphics memory drops, the allocated graphics memory can be released to the operating system for other uses.

When set to Both, the graphics driver will allocate a fixed amount of memory as dedicated graphics memory, as well as allow more system memory to be dynamically allocated between the graphics processor and the operating system.
Notice what your Pup-Sysinfo shows here:
VGA controller [0300]: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 520 [8086:1916] (rev 07)
• Kernel Driver: i915
• Memory Used by Driver: 1094.51 KB


There are a lot of things that could be causing that persons graphics memory problems.
The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.

Hello bigpup
Thanks for the info.
bigpup wrote:The BIOS feature that controls all this is the DVMT Mode BIOS feature. It allows you to select the DVMT operating mode.
I looked into my efi firmware interface aka BIOS, but did not find anything like that there.
(But I did find an option Grapic Device. It can be [UMA only], enable integrated graphic controller only, or [Discrete] which enables both gc.
I tried that but did not bring up the nvidia in Pupsysinfo. But I do find some mentioning of nvidia as 3D controller in some places. )

Is there a place in Pupsysinfo to find the info about RAM on the Graphic Cards, like in windows? Or is there another tool to use?
I understand this is additional RAM to the proper RAM for the CPU.

This just says that very little memory, about 1M, is used for the driver, right? It is not even clear to me what kind of memory this is.

@foxpup, bigpup and other testers:

Currently, the Pup-Sysinfo video report does not probe the graphics chip directly, but uses the lspci utility to determine pre-allocated (prefetchable) video memory.

When parsing system information, Pup-Sysinfo calls only those tools common to all Pups but we could use the glxinfo utility to determine video memory. Beyond this, I'm not sure Pup-Sysinfo will further quantify the physical memory of the video card.

The revised function file below reports prefetchable video memory defined by lspci, and total video memory defined by glxinfo.

EDIT:
file removed

Thanks

Put the new func file in Pup-Sysinfo 2.8.3

Well, that now gives more info about memory.

This is my graphics output.
VGA controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Atom Processor Z36xxx/Z37xxx Series Graphics & Display [8086:0f31] (rev 0e)
• Kernel Driver: i915
• Memory Used by Driver: 1216.00 KB
• Path: /lib/modules/4.19.12/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915.ko
• Description: Intel Graphics
• Video RAM: 1536M total, 256M prefetchable
This being integrated Intel Graphics, that uses system RAM.
That seems to show how much system RAM could be used as VRAM. (1536M)
I have 2GB of RAM in this computer.

After looking at this. That Memory Used by Driver: 1216.00 KB seems to be what the i915 driver uses to operate the driver.

That 256M prefetchable is this:
Prefetchable memory is memory which the CPU can request in advance as an optimization, before actual code operates on it. This happens because the CPU guesses it may be needed in the future or because the code contains explicit prefetch instructions. Then it prefetches those memory locations.

To give you output for something other than Intel graphics.

This is from a Nvidia Geforce GTX 1070 card with its own 8GB of memory. It does not use system ram for graphics.

The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.

This is the output now with the new func:
VGA controller [0300]: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 520 [8086:1916] (rev 07)
• Kernel Driver: i915
• Memory Used by Driver: 1094.51 KB
• Path: /lib/modules/4.9.149-stretch/kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915.ko
• Description: Intel Graphics
• Video RAM: 1536M total, 256M prefetchable
1536M for video RAM seems to me a lot more than the official 1G. What else could this include? It's "funny" this is exactly the same number as for the intel gc of bigpup.
(The normal RAM for CPU of this machine is 8G and video RAM is reported in windows to be 1G).
