Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.

RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Jan Ščotka 2010-05-27 10:24:22 UTC

There was a problem with kernel interface for PMQoS some times ago.
How is state now? It is okay now.
There should be communication over Dbus between
power management - dbus - kernel - proc dirs

Comment 2 Richard Hughes 2010-06-01 12:37:11 UTC

The /dev/cpu_dma_latency and /dev/network_latency device files are missing in el6 and fedora kernels for some reason.

The supported devices are the e1000e, ipw2100, and igbvf. I have the former installed, so I should be getting the pmqos interface files. I'm doing some more debugging now, and am waiting for test kernels to compile.

Comment 3 Andy Gospodarek 2010-06-04 15:28:57 UTC

Seems to be working for me:

$ uname -a 
Linux eeepc 2.6.32.9-70.fc12.i686 #1 SMP Wed Mar 3 05:14:32 UTC 2010 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
$ ls /dev | grep latency
cpu_dma_latency
network_latency

I'm half way through a test document. I should be finished in the next few days.

Comment 6 RHEL Program Management 2010-07-28 16:37:43 UTC

This issue has been proposed when we are only considering blocker
issues in the current Red Hat Enterprise Linux release.

** If you would still like this issue considered for the current
release, ask your support representative to file as a blocker on
your behalf. Otherwise ask that it be considered for the next
Red Hat Enterprise Linux release. **
