Looks like we are many versions behind current kernel (now 4.1.0) Thanks
> Looks like we are many versions behind current kernel (now 4.1.0) I wonder if anything has actually changed though.
This shows no commits. git log v3.18..master -- tools/power/cpupower
In fact, the cpupower tool has not changed since linux-3.14, so the 3.15 and 3.18 versions seems pointless.
4.2 seems to have cosmetic changes respect on 3.18
Hrm... I'm actually seeing quite a few changes now; maybe my git tree was out of date or I typoed something. Probably time for a bump afterall. % git shortlog v3.18..v4.2 -- tools/power/cpupower Herton R.
