(I just found this mail in my "Junk Email" folder... sorry to miss the mail)
The reason that I create an other file to store the tracer is that I would like to make amd-pstate as a module.
So far, the module is better for debugging at early phase. If we adds it into power system, the amd-pstate has to build in kernel.

Yes, I would like monitor the status and changes that {min,des,max}_perf.
Agree, I will refine and clean up the prints in V3.

No problem, will update it in V3.
