The heterogeneous stuff was dropped from the series so this is no longer accurate. However everything else in the series is good now. I've applied this to my bleeding-edge branch at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/superm1/linux.git/log/?h=bleeding-edge and will do some more testing on it. I'll plan to send out a PR next week with it to catch 6.11.

Hello everyone, This patchset addresses critical issues and enhances performance settings for CPUs with heterogeneous core types in the AMD pstate driver. Specifically, it resolves problems related to calculating the highest performance and frequency on the latest CPUs with preferred cores. Additionally, the patchset includes documentation improvements in amd-pstate.rst, offering a comprehensive guide covering topics such as recommended reboot requirements during driver switching, debugging procedures for driver loading failures. Your feedback and suggestions for improvement are highly appreciated. Please review the patches and provide your valuable input. Thank you. Best regards, Perry. Changes from V4: * pick all the RB by and ACk by flags from Mario * fix typo for patch #10 in the commit log * improve the commit log for shared memory in patch #11 * drop hetero core type patches into another patchset * drop debugging section patch for amd-pstate.rst Changes from V3: * add one new patch to enable shared memory type CPPC by default * pick all the RB by and ACk by flags from Mario and Gautham * update the patch #7 PPR link with doc id (Boris & Mario) * fix the highest perf initialization issue with preferred core check for patch #9 (Gautham) * rework return core type and commit log for the patch #9 (Mario) * address feedback for patch #5 for the debugging suggestions.(Mario) * retest the patches on MSR and shared memory type CPPC systems, no regression seen. Changes from V2: * pick review by and ack by flags from Mario and Gautham * rebase to latest linux-pm bleeding edge branch * fix driver loading block issue for patch 4, make sure the warning will not abort the driver loading in case there are some new family/model id. * fix the driver loading sequence issue for patch 10, it allows command line and kernel config option together. command line will override kconfig option. * add back the AMD CPUs with Family ID 19H and Model ID range 0x70 to 0x7f to return the highest perf and check others CPU core type in the following codes. * run some testing on the local system. * move the amd_core_type to amd-pstate.c because of the amd-pstate.h was removed lately. Changes from V1: * drop patch 11 which has been merged in a separate patch.
