intel-undervolt measure
. Power consumption should be reduced with undervolting. There are also some other useful measurements.intel-undervolt.service
applies configuration after wake up, you probably need it. intel-undervolt-loop.service
applies configuration periodically. It's described in "Daemon Mode" section of readme. You can use both.hwphint switch load:multi:1.00 balance_performance power hwphint switch load:multi:4.00 balance_power balance_performance
This is how it's designed. The hints should not intersect, so you could use tools like tlp
to configure HWP hint, and then intel-undervolt will switch between them. In your case, it's not clear where to switch from balance_performance
state: either to balance_power
or to power
. I don't want to add additional checks like AC/battery since it will overcompicate things for nothing.
First of all thanks for this great tool. I use this tool for a Thinkpad Extreme to tune it to be as quiet as possible but still be performant if needed in a more long term sense (several seconds)
I have something like this defined in the conf:
hwphint switch load:multi:4.00 balance_performance power
There is mentioned it might be possible to have multiple instructions like this. I would like to fine tune this a bit more, however I can not use this:
hwphint switch load:multi:1.00 balance_performance power hwphint switch load:multi:4.00 balance_power balance_performance
Also following things came in my mind:
