Hi @Radky

A useful addition to PupSysInfo would be a display of the
BUILD_FROM_WOOF=
status

Cheers

Sometime after version 2.7.3
Pup-Sysinfo stopped showing speed for each core in a CPU.

Tried with version 2.8.2

In Bionic64 doesn't work.

Don't know how PSI collects data but this works:

Code: Select all

watch -n 5 -t 'grep "processor\|cpu MHz" /proc/cpuinfo'

@bigpup,

May I assume you tested PSI 2.7.3 and 2.8.2 in your N2840 PC while using Bionicpup64 7.9.8 CE RC with kernel 4.19.12 ?

Thanks

PupSysInfo-2.8

#101 Post by oldaolgeezer »

bigpup and puppy_apprentice and radky:

When I looked in Pup-Sysinfo version 2.8 func script file:
/usr/local/Pup-SysInfo/func, as opposed to
my slacko 5.7.0 Pup-Sysinfo version 2.7.3 func, it looks like
there is special code for getting the CPU frequency from a different
directory location if the kernel version is newer than 4.13:
the Pup-Sysinfo version 2.8 func seems to look by using:
sed 's/...$//' /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq
but for older kernels, seems to look by using:
grep -a 'MHz' /proc/cpuinfo | awk '{print $4}' | cut -d '.' -f1

A little further on in the Pup-Sysinfo version 2.8 func code, the displayed
CPU value looks like it only displays the CPU frequency values that
were plugged in by the newer than 4.13 kernel version's code.

People that are better script coders than me should examine this further
(It might be an easy fix.)

Sorry :oops:
Yes, all were run in Bionicpup64 7.9.8 CE RC with kernel 4.19.12

I noticed puppy_apprentice's posted image shows CPU max speed.
Not shown in the Pup-Sysinfo's I tried.
Could be a CPU thing, but would seem a N3050 is not that different from a N2840.

Pup-Sysinfo 2.8.1 is in Bionicpup64 7.9.8
It does not show each core speed for me.

Using Bionicpup64 7.9.8
I tried Pup-Sysinfo V2.8.1 in another computer.
Different CPU.
I get this info.

@bigpup, puppy_apprentice, oldaolgeezer, perdido, or other users

As time permits, please test the revised function file below.

Remove the fake gz extension and place the file as follows: /usr/local/Pup-SysInfo/func. Make file executable.

Thanks

EDIT: test file removed. Please see post below for current release of PupSysInfo.

When I boot Bionicpup64 7.9.8 CE RC with the boot parameter "intel_pstate=disable", PupSysInfo shows the speed of each core.
When I boot Bionicpup64 7.9.8 CE RC without the boot parameter "intel_pstate=disable", PupSysInfo does not show the speed of each core.

Hi radky, No changes in my upupbb-18.05 system with Pupsysinfo-2.8.1
Works and provides the same data, all good.

I notice a difference between Freq. scaling driver of my system and bigpup's.
Mine is using Freq. scaling driver : acpi-cpufreq
bigpup is using Freq. scaling driver intel_pstate , the same as gyro and has the same problem with the intel_pstate driver enabled
that gyro references and supplies the fix for.

This thread about frequency scaling problems with intel_pstate seems related.
Xenialpup 7.5 32&64 bit cpu frequency scaling not working

Now I wonder about intel_pstate, after seeing what is being posted about it.
When I boot Bionicpup64 7.9.8 CE RC with the boot parameter "intel_pstate=disable", PupSysInfo shows the speed of each core.
When I boot Bionicpup64 7.9.8 CE RC without the boot parameter "intel_pstate=disable", PupSysInfo does not show the speed of each core.
Well, that worked for me also.

Pup-Sysinfo 2.8.2
Right now I am using "intel_pstate" with the new func file.
it also works to let all cores show speed.

Having fun radky? :lol:

Nothing has an affect on showing CPU max speed.
Still not showing that.
