https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=264775 --- Comment #10 from crahman@gmail.com --- I didn't have time to address this last year, but the problem described in the comments of this bug is related to a failure of the save/restore mechanism of the cpu frequency. I've described in in more detail in differential D35704. In short, the cpu frequency is saved and restored as thermal control is activated and deactivated. But the restore mechanism breaks and so one ends up with a low cpu frequency until a reboot. It would be very useful to finally fix this bug. Instead of maintaining this patch in multiple places, the latest revision is at https://reviews.freebsd.org/D35704 along with code to allow active/passive cooling to be controlled by power_profile. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
