  • It’s not just random, it simply does not even work. Because they set this:

    +/*Preferred Core featue is supported*/
    +static bool prefcore = true;
    

    And later in the code they do the if condition wrong:

    +	if (prefcore)
    +		WRITE_ONCE(cpudata->highest_perf, AMD_PSTATE_PREFCORE_THRESHOLD);
    +	else
    +		WRITE_ONCE(cpudata->highest_perf, AMD_CPPC_HIGHEST_PERF(cap1));
    

    if should look like this:

    +	if (prefcore)
    +		WRITE_ONCE(cpudata->highest_perf, AMD_CPPC_HIGHEST_PERF(cap1));
    +	else
    +		WRITE_ONCE(cpudata->highest_perf, AMD_PSTATE_PREFCORE_THRESHOLD);
    

    There is probably even more wrong, looking at the code quality, but this at least makes the preferred core work.
