Nouveau Driver Receives Patch For GPU Reclocking With The Pascal GP10B


Nearly a decade after the Tegra X2 SoC shipped in the likes of the Jetson TX2, the Pascal-based GP10B GPU has received a patch for allowing GPU re-clocking within the open-source Nouveau driver.

Kling explained in yesterday's patch series:"Starting with Tegra186, gpu clock handling is done by the bpmp and there is little to be done by the kernel. The only thing necessary for reclocking is to set the gpcclk to the desired rate and the bpmp handles the rest. If the code review goes well this patch could potentially be picked up for the Linux v6.18 kernel cycle.
