This compiles the EM but does not enable to run EAS in default. The EAS only works with SchedUtil - a CPUFreq governor which handles direct requests from the scheduler for the frequency change. Thus, to make EAS working in default, the SchedUtil governor should be configured as default CPUFreq governor. Although, the EAS might be enabled in runtime, when the EM is present for CPUs, the SchedUtil is compiled and then set as CPUFreq governor, i.e.: echo schedutil > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor echo schedutil > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu4/cpufreq/scaling_governor To check if EAS is ready to work, the read output from the command below should show '1': cat /proc/sys/kernel/sched_energy_aware To disable EAS in runtime simply 'echo 0' to the file above. Some test results, which stress the scheduler on Odroid-XU3: hackbench -l 500 -s 4096 With mainline code and with this patch set.
