intel_rps_get_min_raw_freq(9)

💅 intel_rps_get_min_raw_freq(9) — the Kernel API Manual, bestie edition

okay so this is a page from the Kernel API Manual, and honestly? it's a short one. a little snack. a lil bite-sized kernel moment. let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

intel_rps_get_min_raw_freq — returns the min frequency in some raw format. that's it. that's the whole gig. it gives you the minimum frequency, and it gives it to you raw 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

u32 intel_rps_get_min_raw_freq (struct intel_rps *rps );

literally the entire vibe: you hand it some struct intel_rps *rps, and it hands you back a u32. no cap, that's the whole signature ⭐

---

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• rps — the intel_rps structure. that's the one and only thing you gotta pass in, bestie. she takes exactly one (1) argument and she's not greedy about it 🎀

---

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

So what does it actually do? it returns the min frequency in a raw format. icon behaviour, truly 👑

Here's the part you actually need to remember: in newer platforms, raw is in units of 50 MHz. so like, the number you get back isn't magically in MHz — it's in raw units, and on the newer stuff each unit is 50 MHz. do with that what you will 💀

fr fr though: raw units are not MHz on newer platforms. 50 MHz per unit. don't come for me if you forget 🙈
