Hello H. Peter,

the patch "avoid overflows in kernel/time" makes the ondemand cpufreq scheduler unusable. It looks like the cpufreq scheduler takes minutes to react on load changes.

I looked at the patch but did not found an obvious problem. Reverting this patch seems to fix the problem.

Do you have any ideas?

Christian

Yes, a patch has already been sent upstream.
