Date: Thu, 7 Nov 2013 10:28:50 +0800 From: Xiaoguang Chen <chenxg@...vell.com> To: <rjw@...ysocki.net>, <viresh.kumar@...aro.org>, <cpufreq@...r.kernel.org>, <linux-pm@...r.kernel.org>, <linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org> CC: <chenxg@...vell.com>, <chenxg.marvell@...il.com> Subject: [PATCH] cpufreq: conservative: fix requested_freq reduction issue When decreasing frequency, requested_freq may be less than freq_target, So requested_freq minus freq_target may be negative, But reqested_freq's unit is unsigned int, then the negative result will be one larger interger which may be even higher than requested_freq. This patch is to fix such issue. when result becomes negative, set requested_freq as the min value of policy.
