Description Yu Watanabe 2013-10-20 04:18:35 UTC
Description of problem:

powernow-k8 module is not loaded automatically after kernel is updated to 3.11.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

kernel-3.11.4-101.fc18.x86_64
systemd-201-2.fc18.8.x86_64

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. update kernel to 3.11
2. reboot

Actual results:

powernow-k8 is not loaded automatically, and cpufreq is disabled.

Expected results:

powernow-k8 is auto-loaded and cpufreq is enabled.

Additional info:

This bug is the same as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1004456
By creating /etc/udev/rules.d/80-drivers-cpufreq.rules with the following single line,
------------
ENV{MODALIAS}=="?*", RUN{builtin}="kmod load $env{MODALIAS}"
------------
the module powernow-k8 is automatically loaded after system reboot.

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2013-12-21 15:39:54 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 18 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 18. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '18'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be 
able to fix it before Fedora 18 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior to Fedora 18's end of life.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 2 Zbigniew Jędrzejewski-Szmek 2013-12-23 04:18:42 UTC
This should be fixed by the last (or previous) update.

Comment 3 Yu Watanabe 2013-12-25 01:23:53 UTC
Yes. Thank you!
