Hello. Do you have crash or running trace of ?

1. Driver corefreqk.ko in kernel log
2. Daemon in debug mode corefreqd -d

[cyring]

CLI stopped at a wrong version: https://github.com/cyring/CoreFreq/blob/8006b76630235fe1ffa3d78aaf171fd9598c228c/corefreq-cli.c#L18070

Do you confirm CoreFreq source code is not mixed up ? Like a previous CoreFreq Daemon or Driver is still resident in memory ? See/dev/shm/corefreq-shm and /dev/corefreqk I suggest to fully unload them; remove and install package again.

1.87 and 1.86 from AUR were in conflict. Removed everything and installed version 1.87 for kernel 5.13.13 and it works now.

Not sure to understand : is the screenshot showing 1.86 or 1.87 ?
