From abae1b86b6486b4fccf0e04a1936651a3bd73517 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: vasilito Date: Sat, 20 Jun 2026 15:23:25 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] =?UTF-8?q?docs:=20redbear-power=20=C2=A727=20=E2=80=94=20?= =?UTF-8?q?v1.3=20Linux-host=20fallbacks=20implemented?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Implements the three gaps from §26: - Phase A: new platform.rs (291 lines) with runtime probes for MSR, ACPI PSS, /proc/stat, cpufreq sysfs, hwmon — emits one eprintln! diagnostic per source at startup - Phase B: msr.rs reads /dev/cpu/{cpu}/msr on Linux via lseek+pread; acpi.rs read_load falls back to /proc/stat; acpi.rs read_acpi_pss reads /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies; cpufreq.rs reads/writes /sys/.../scaling_governor. Removed the hardcoded P0..P5 fallback table (violates zero-stub policy). - Phase C: replaced misleading "MSR: not available (QEMU?)" with a "Sources: MSR=ok PSS=no load=ok gov=ok hwmon=ok" header line that shows per-source availability at a glance. Verified on AMD Ryzen 9 7900X (24 threads, AMD-pstate driver): - /dev/cpu/0/msr detected (probes ok; reads blocked by CAP_SYS_RAWIO for non-root users — kernel-level permission, not a code issue) - /proc/stat readable (load populated after second refresh tick) - /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor readable (governor shows "powersave") - hwmon2 (k10temp) detected (not yet wired into per-CPU temp column — requires per-driver hwmon→tempX_input mapping, deferred to v1.4) - PSS=no (amd-pstate driver does not expose scaling_available_frequencies) v1.3 source: 3501 LoC across 12 modules.
