11Introduction
12------------
13
14Intel(R) Dynamic Platform and Thermal Framework (DPTF) is a platform
15level hardware/software solution for power and thermal management.
16
17As a container for multiple power/thermal technologies, DPTF provides
18a coordinated approach for different policies to effect the hardware
19state of a system.
20
21Since it is a platform level framework, this has several components.
22Some parts of the technology is implemented in the firmware and uses
23ACPI and PCI devices to expose various features for monitoring and
24control. Linux has a set of kernel drivers exposing hardware interface
25to user space. This allows user space thermal solutions like
26"Linux Thermal Daemon" to read platform specific thermal and power
27tables to deliver adequate performance while keeping the system under
28thermal limits.

193
194DPTF Processor thermal RFIM interface
195--------------------------------------------
196
197RFIM interface allows adjustment of FIVR (Fully Integrated Voltage Regulator),
198DDR (Double Data Rate) and DLVR (Digital Linear Voltage Regulator)
199frequencies to avoid RF interference with WiFi and 5G.
200
201Switching voltage regulators (VR) generate radiated EMI or RFI at the
202fundamental frequency and its harmonics. Some harmonics may interfere
203with very sensitive wireless receivers such as Wi-Fi and cellular that
204are integrated into host systems like notebook PCs.  One of mitigation
205methods is requesting SOC integrated VR (IVR) switching frequency to a
206small % and shift away the switching noise harmonic interference from
207radio channels.  OEM or ODMs can use the driver to control SOC IVR
208operation within the range where it does not impact IVR performance.
209
210Some products use DLVR instead of FIVR as switching voltage regulator.
211In this case attributes of DLVR must be adjusted instead of FIVR.
212
213While shifting the frequencies additional clock noise can be introduced,
214which is compensated by adjusting Spread spectrum percent. This helps
215to reduce the clock noise to meet regulatory compliance. This spreading
216% increases bandwidth of signal transmission and hence reduces the
217effects of interference, noise and signal fading.
218
219DRAM devices of DDR IO interface and their power plane can generate EMI
220at the data rates. Similar to IVR control mechanism, Intel offers a
221mechanism by which DDR data rates can be changed if several conditions
222are met: there is strong RFI interference because of DDR; CPU power
223management has no other restriction in changing DDR data rates;
224PC ODMs enable this feature (real time DDR RFI Mitigation referred to as
225DDR-RFIM) for Wi-Fi from BIOS.

329Workload Type Hints
330----------------------------------------
331
332The firmware in Meteor Lake processor generation is capable of identifying
333workload type and passing hints regarding it to the OS. A special sysfs
334interface is provided to allow user space to obtain workload type hints from
335the firmware and control the rate at which they are provided.
336
337User space can poll attribute "workload_type_index" for the current hint or
338can receive a notification whenever the value of this attribute is updated.
339
340file:`/sys/bus/pci/devices/0000:00:04.0/workload_hint/`
341Segment 0, bus 0, device 4, function 0 is reserved for the processor thermal
342device on all Intel client processors. So, the above path doesn't change
343based on the processor generation.
344
345``workload_hint_enable`` (RW)
346	Enable firmware to send workload type hints to user space.
347
348``notification_delay_ms`` (RW)
349	Minimum delay in milliseconds before firmware will notify OS. This is
350	for the rate control of notifications. This delay is between changing
351	the workload type prediction in the firmware and notifying the OS about
352	the change. The default delay is 1024 ms. The delay of 0 is invalid.
353	The delay is rounded up to the nearest power of 2 to simplify firmware
354	programming of the delay value. The read of notification_delay_ms
355	attribute shows the effective value used.
356
357``workload_type_index`` (RO)
358	Predicted workload type index. User space can get notification of
359	change via existing sysfs attribute change notification mechanism.
360
361	The supported index values and their meaning for the Meteor Lake
362	processor generation are as follows:
363
364	0 -  Idle: System performs no tasks, power and idle residency are
365		consistently low for long periods of time.
366
367	1 – Battery Life: Power is relatively low, but the processor may
368		still be actively performing a task, such as video playback for
369		a long period of time.
370
371	2 – Sustained: Power level that is relatively high for a long period
372		of time, with very few to no periods of idleness, which will
373		eventually exhaust RAPL Power Limit 1 and 2.
374
375	3 – Bursty: Consumes a relatively constant average amount of power, but
376		periods of relative idleness are interrupted by bursts of
377		activity. The bursts are relatively short and the periods of
378		relative idleness between them typically prevent RAPL Power
379		Limit 1 from being exhausted.
380
381	4 – Unknown: Can't classify.
382
