Package: linux-cpupower
Version: 4.9.13-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

On i7-870 Nehalem, "cpupower frequency-info -n" reports the wrong
speeds for boost states. It seems to take the right multipliers (24,
24, 26 and 27) but the wrong base clock (100 as per newer chips,
instead of correct 133). Thus the reported speeds (2400-2700 Mhz) are
even lower than the normal maximum (2934 Mhz). Output should be approx
3192-3591.

i7z tool figures the 100 vs 133 correctly (yet has other bug and says
the chip to be Nehalem Haswell at the same time, which has been
reported too). It may serve as reference to figure where to extract
the proper clock value for the cpupower command.

Thanks,
GSR
