问题现象：

加载 ACPI CPUfreq 驱动程序时出现以下错误

报错一：

# modprobe acpi_freq
modprobe: FATAL: Module acpi_freq not found. 

报错二：

# modprobe acpi-cpufreq
FATAL: Error inserting acpi_cpufreq (/lib/modules/2.6.32-220.13.1.el6.x86_64/kernel/arch/x86/kernel/cpu/cpufreq/acpi-cpufreq.ko): No such device

在某些情况下，在启动时观察到以下消息：

kernel: p4-clockmod: Warning: EST-capable CPU detected. The acpi-cpufreq
module offers voltage scaling in addition of frequency scaling. You 
should use that instead of p4-clockmod, if possible.

解决方法：

• 首先，确保系统 BIOS 配置为允许操作系统控制 CPU 电源管理。

例如：在HP ProLiant DL380 Gen10硬件的情况下，请按照以下方法操作

系统配置---> BIOS ---> 电源管理，然后将“电源配置文件”更改为自定义，将电源调节器更改为“操作系统控制模式”

注意：在硬件不同的情况下，上述方式会有所不同，主要目的只是将电源管理的控制权切换到操作系统。

• 第二个添加 intel_pstate=disable 作为内核命令行参数

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="crashkernel=auto rd.lvm.lv=rhel_hp/root rd.lvm.lv=rhel_hp/swap intel_pstate=disable  console=ttyS0,115200"

请参阅如何在 RHEL7 中永久修改内核命令行？

验证 /proc/cmdline 文件中是否存在 intel_pstate=disable 参数：

# grep intel_pstate /proc/cmdline

 诊断步骤:

• 以下 CPUfreq 模块可用

$ ls /lib/modules/<kernel-version>/kernel/drivers/cpufreq
acpi-cpufreq.ko.xz  amd_freq_sensitivity.ko.xz  cpufreq_stats.ko.xz  p4-clockmod.ko.xz  pcc-cpufreq.ko.xz  powernow-k8.ko.xz  speedstep-lib.ko.xz

• 最初显示以下输出

$ cpupower frequency-info 
analyzing CPU 0:
  no or unknown cpufreq driver is active on this CPU  <<------ 
  CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: Not Available
  CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: Not Available
  maximum transition latency:  Cannot determine or is not supported.
  hardware limits: Not Available
[..........]

$ cpupower frequency-info
analyzing CPU 0:
  driver: intel_pstate  <<------ 
  CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: 0
  CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: 0
  maximum transition latency:  Cannot determine or is not supported.
  hardware limits: 1.20 GHz - 2.40 GHz
  available cpufreq governors: conservative userspace powersave ondemand performance
  current policy: frequency should be within 1.20 GHz and 2.40 GHz.
                  The governor "performance" may decide which speed to use

遵循解决方案后，我们可以从下面的命令输出中确认 ACPI CPUfreq 模块已加载

$ cpupower frequency-info
analyzing CPU 0:
**driver: acpi-cpufreq**   <<-----
  CPUs which run at the same hardware frequency: 0
  CPUs which need to have their frequency coordinated by software: 0
  maximum transition latency: 10.0 us
  hardware limits: 1.20 GHz - 2.40 GHz
  available frequency steps:  2.40 GHz, 2.40 GHz, 2.30 GHz, 2.20 GHz, 2.10 GHz, 2.00 GHz, 1.90 GHz, 1.80 GHz, 1.70 GHz, 1.60 GHz, 1.50 GHz, 1.40 GHz, 1.30 GHz, 1.20 GHz
  available cpufreq governors: conservative userspace powersave ondemand performance
  current policy: frequency should be within 1.20 GHz and 2.40 GHz.
                  The governor "performance" may decide which speed to use
