Hey Folks,
I am interested in exploiting the PowerTune capabilities of the new G5
in Xserve, iMacs, etc.
Linux provides access to these capabilities via a kernel module
(cpufreq).
I have Googled the topic and I haven't found any Digital Voltage
Scaling (DVS) implementations for Darwin/OS X.
I'd like to know if anyone is interested in working on it. My research
group (http://scape.cse.sc.edu) has done work work with the Linux
implementations of DVS.
I don't know if this is something that belongs in the kernel as a
driver or as a command line utility of some sort. I'd really like to
see a Darwin implementation that parallels the cpufreq implementation
(they use sysfs for a userspace interface) for cross-platform
compatibility.
Thanks,
Drew
