I have a similar problem. As an workarround I changed the order of the thermal devices in the thermald configuration: gedit /etc/thermald/thermal-cpu-cdev-order.xml cpufreq rapl_controller intel_pstate Processor intel_powerclamp I tested with the following orders, both woked fine

Same here. running kubuntu 15.10 on a LG laptop. I disabled the intel_powerclamp using this method: - Opened the "/etc/thermald/thermal-cpu-cdev-order.xml" file. - Removed the line referencing the intel_powerclamp. - Issued an "service thermald stop/start". This is probably easier than removi

I can see the value in this sort of thing, as well, when power or heat constraints exist. Which is good for me since my laptop has bad heat dissipation. But this implementation is pretty bad. I've noticed that the idle injection doesn't stop for me until the process that caused it is killed. So

Had the same trouble, blacklisting intel_powerclamp and intel_rapl fixed it. Thanks to @krzysdrewniak. sudo sh -c 'cat < /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-power.conf # See: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1389077 blacklist intel_powerclamp blacklist intel_rapl EOF' Thanks. -- You r

I'd like to report that blacklisting intel_powerclamp and intel_rapl on my HP Probook 4530s appears to have mostly solved my "random I/O freezes" (mouse, keyboard, display, or audio cutting out for a few seconds at random), which also seem related to bug #1386721 . I didn't see the syslog messages

I would think it a good idea if setting the pstate to "performance" would disable powerclamp. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1389077 Title: [HP ProBook 4530s] Intel Powerclamp is Slow

As an experiment, I removed the powerclamp driver and monitored the temp sensors. The GPU never got close to high. The CPU has two thresholds, high of 86 C and critical of 100 C. With the powerclamp driver, the idle injection always kicked in at 86. Without, the temp stayed at around 99 C, never ev

Yes, you have a point there about injecting idle time to the CPU to cool down the GPU. The thing is that modern GPU's (and CPU's) already have thermal protection so I don't need intel_powerclamp to protect anything. Now, if I was interested in keeping the power usage down then powerclamp would b

My GPU seems fine, well under the high threshold. I can see what the logic is of throttling the CPU because the GPU is overheating--if the CPU is throttled then less data is being fed to the GPU so the GPU is indirectly slowed. But you're right, reducing the CPU by half is overkill. And that seems

Hi William, How is your GPU temperature when this happens? Btw, as a more permanent temporary fix than rmmod you can blacklist it by creating the file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-intel_powerclamp.conf and adding the line "blacklist intel_powerclamp" to it. As for my problem, I think it's a bit co

The fans are working fine, although maybe not as fast as before, and the top tasks are java as expected. There is something here that is new behavior, but I can't quite pin what it is. Either: 1. The older kernels did not protect the CPU from overheating. 2. The older kernels used a different for

So after some more tests I got some interesting results. The problem seems to be that the NVidia card runs much hotter in Linux than in Windows. Playing "The Talos Principle" on Steam in Ubuntu the GPU temperature reaches 95-97C while in Windows 8 it hovers around 75-80C. Pretty much the same t

Addition: the CPU temperature never goes above 80C when this happens and I don't think the GPU temperature is a problem, I think the driver or GPU itself will slow down if it gets too hot (but I could be wrong). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which

I have noticed the same thing. If I start playing a game in wine, say ETS2, on my laptop (Intel HD 4000+Nvidia 820M) it runs fine for maybe a minute and after that the FPS drops like a rock. The "problem", if you can call it that, is that the GPU temperature goes above 85C and thus powerclamp kicks

Yes, intel_powerclamp is set to default to 85C as the default thermal limit. It spawns these kidle_inject threads to help slow down and cool the cpu. I believe there is a way to set the threshold higher, but it's probably not a good idea. It would be better to see what is causing the cpu to get

I found a workaround by rmmod intel_powerclamp. This removed the kidle_inject threads and the speed was returned to normal. However, I looked at my CPU temperature, and it was 87 deg C, over the high threshold. It is possible that the idle injection is a new kernel feature that is kicking in to pr
