[Xen-users] Power management in hypervisor

[Birger Brunswiek <birger@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi
I'm running Debian Lenny with Xen 3.4 packages taken from Debian
Squeeze. I want to get power management to work in the hypervisor:

user@host:~$ sudo xenpm set-scaling-governor ondemand
[CPU0] failed to set governor name
user@host:~$ sudo xenpm get-cpuidle-states
Max C-state: C7

cpu id               : 0
total C-states       : 2
idle time(ms)        : 1885922
C0                   : transition [00000000000000429120]
                       residency  [00000000000000186144 ms]
C1                   : transition [00000000000000429120]
                       residency  [00000000000001882392 ms]

user@host:~$ sudo xenpm
user@host:~$

No output at all? Maybe my CPU is not supported by Xen? The P-States are
correctly detected by Debian Lenny's standard (non-xen) kernel.

user@host:~$ cat /proc/cpuinfo

I have tried setting cpufreq=xen explicitly but that does not seem to
make any difference. Does anyone have an idea what's wrong here?

Cheers,
Birger
