Say During the registration of the frequency table cpufreq_policy can be registered as SCALE_DIRECT or SCALE_STEPS. With SCALE_DIRECT flag, valid frequency will be requested. With this flags the governor itself can can figure out if frequency scaling is required or not and very few calls to __cpufreq_driver_target will happen. But i agree that in this approach cpufreq_frequency_table_target is still required but again it can be optimized by binary search as currently the search is linear.

Honestly speaking I couldn't get what your idea is :) ... but governor is in no position to make this direct call to drivers.. Taking such stuff to governors will replicate this code again..

Frequencies in this table aren't required to be in ascending order :)

Currently prototype of cpufreq_drivers target routines is: int target(struct cpufreq_policy *policy, unsigned int target_freq, unsigned int relation); And most of the drivers call cpufreq_frequency_table_target() to get a valid index of their frequency table which is closest to the target_freq. And they don't use target_freq and relation after it. So, it makes sense to just do this work in cpufreq core before calling cpufreq_frequency_table_target() and simply pass index instead. But this can be done only with drivers which expose their frequency table with cpufreq core. For others we need to stick with the old prototype of target() until those drivers are converted to expose frequency tables. This patch implements the new light weight prototype for target_index() routine. It looks like this: int target_index(struct cpufreq_policy *policy, unsigned int index); CPUFreq core will call cpufreq_frequency_table_target() before calling this routine and pass index to it. Because CPUFreq core now requires to call routines present in freq_table.c CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_TABLE must be enabled all the time. This also marks target() interface as deprecated. So, that new drivers avoid using it. And Documentation is updated accordingly. Cc: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch> Cc: David S.
