Intel Efficiency Latency Control "ELC" Feature Slated For Linux 6.12
Last month I wrote about Intel Linux engineers working on a new Efficiency Latency Control feature for their uncore driver
While this strategy achieves low latency, which is crucial for time-sensitive computations, it does not necessarily yield the best performance per watt, —a key metric for energy efficiency and operational cost savings. The patches adding this Efficiency Latency Control feature to the Intel uncore driver code have been queued into platform-drivers-x86.git's for-next branch. With it now in the "for-next" code ahead of the upcoming Linux 6.12 merge window, it should be part of this next kernel cycle barring any last minute issues from coming to light.
