zx_system_set_performance_info

Summary

Set CPU performance parameters.

Declaration

#include <zircon/syscalls.h>

zx_status_t zx_system_set_performance_info(zx_handle_t resource,
                                           uint32_t topic,
                                           const void* info,
                                           size_t count);

Description

zx_system_set_performance_info() sets CPU performance parameters maintained by the kernel. The topic parameter indicates what specific parameters are affected.

count indicates the number of items to set. Topics may impose requirements on this value.

info is a pointer to a buffer of sufficient size to accommodate count entries of the type specified by topic.

TOPICS

ZX_CPU_PERF_SCALE

count: Must be non-zero and less than or equal to the number of logical CPUs in the system.

info type: zx_cpu_performance_scale_t[count]

An array of zx_cpu_performance_scale_t with entries specifying the performance scales (scalar values representing relative operating points) of the respective logical CPUs in the system. Only the CPUs specified in the array are updated, other CPUs are not affected.

Logical CPU numbers must be stored in increasing order in the array. The scale values are unsigned fixed point Q32.32 format. The scale values should indicate the relative performance of the CPUs, with 1.0 corresponding to the highest operating point of the fastest CPU in the system.

See RFC 0123 for further details on values and update protocols.

Rights

resource must have resource kind ZX_RSRC_KIND_SYSTEM.

Return value

zx_system_set_performance_info() returns ZX_OK on success. In the event of a failure, a negative error value is returned.

Errors

ZX_ERR_BAD_HANDLE resource is not a valid handle.

ZX_ERR_WRONG_TYPE resource is not resource kind ZX_RSRC_KIND_SYSTEM.

ZX_ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE resource is not in the range [ZX_RSRC_SYSTEM_CPU_BASE, ZX_RSRC_SYSTEM_CPU_BASE+1).

ZX_ERR_INVALID_ARGS topic or info have invalid values or info has out-of-order entries.

ZX_ERR_OUT_OF_RANGE count or info entry values do not meet the requirements of the topic.

ZX_ERR_NO_MEMORY Failure due to lack of memory. There is no good way for userspace to handle this (unlikely) error. In a future build this error will no longer occur.
