[Dynamicpower-devel] Thread dpmstate support

[derkling m. <der...@gm...>]

While doing some hacks on DynamicPower and I've notices that it miss support
for a thread-related dpmstate definition.
If I look within /proc/PID/task/TID I can't find a "dpmstate" query file,
and thus I'm unable to set this param for a single thread.
We could define only the dpmstate for a thread leader process and than all
spawned threads will inherit that value.

It should be of interest to have such a feature: this will allow
intra-process optimizations.
Is there any reason for that implementation choice?
Do you think it should be possible and interesting to have a thread-specific
dpmstate definition.

Thanks for any clue.
