Linus Torvalds ad52c55e1d Power management updates for 6.13-rc1
- Update the amd-pstate driver to set the initial scaling frequency
    policy lower bound to be the lowest non-linear frequency (Dhananjay
    Ugwekar).
 
  - Enable amd-pstate by default on servers starting with newer AMD Epyc
    processors (Swapnil Sapkal).
 
  - Align more codepaths between shared memory and MSR designs in
    amd-pstate (Dhananjay Ugwekar).
 
  - Clean up amd-pstate code to rename functions and remove redundant
    calls (Dhananjay Ugwekar, Mario Limonciello).
 
  - Do other assorted fixes and cleanups in amd-pstate (Dhananjay Ugwekar
    and Mario Limonciello).
 
  - Change the Balance-performance EPP value for Granite Rapids in the
    intel_pstate driver to a more performance-biased one (Srinivas
    Pandruvada).
 
  - Simplify MSR read on the boot CPU in the ACPI cpufreq driver (Chang
    S. Bae).
 
  - Ensure sugov_eas_rebuild_sd() is always called when sugov_init()
    succeeds to always enforce sched domains rebuild in case EAS needs
    to be enabled (Christian Loehle).

    intel_idle driver (Artem Bityutskiy).

    options (Tor Vic).

Pull power management updates from Rafael Wysocki:
 "The amd-pstate cpufreq driver gets the majority of changes this time.
  They are mostly fixes and cleanups, but one of them causes it to
  become the default cpufreq driver on some AMD server platforms.

  Apart from that, the menu cpuidle governor is modified to not use
  iowait any more, the intel_idle gets a custom C-states table for
  Granite Rapids Xeon D, and the intel_pstate driver will use a more
  aggressive Balance- performance default EPP value on Granite Rapids
  now.

  There are also some fixes, cleanups and tooling updates.

  Specifics:

   - Update the amd-pstate driver to set the initial scaling frequency
     policy lower bound to be the lowest non-linear frequency (Dhananjay
     Ugwekar)

   - Enable amd-pstate by default on servers starting with newer AMD

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.
