    x86 platform driver: intelligent power sharing driver · aa7ffc01
    Jesse Barnes 提交于
    Intel Core i3/5 platforms with integrated graphics support both CPU and
    GPU turbo mode.  CPU turbo mode is opportunistic: the CPU will use any
    available power to increase core frequencies if thermal headroom is
    available.  The GPU side is more manual however; the graphics driver
    must monitor GPU power and temperature and coordinate with a core
    thermal driver to take advantage of available thermal and power headroom
    in the package.
    
    The intelligent power sharing (IPS) driver is intended to coordinate
    this activity by monitoring MCP (multi-chip package) temperature and
    power, allowing the CPU and/or GPU to increase their power consumption,
    and thus performance, when possible.  The goal is to maximize
    performance within a given platform's TDP (thermal design point).
