  • Future AMD processors, starting with Family 16h, can provide software
    with feedback on how the workload may respond to frequency change --
    memory-bound workloads will not benefit from higher frequency, where
    as compute-bound workloads will. This patch enables this "frequency
    sensitivity feedback" to aid the ondemand governor to make better
    frequency change decisions by hooking into the powersave bias.
