Author: mav Date: Thu Jan 9 10:45:37 2014 New Revision: 260474 URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/260474 Log: MFC r259197: Do not DELAY() for P-state transition unless we want to see the result. Intel manual says: "If a transition is already in progress, transition to a new value will subsequently take effect. Reads of IA32_PERF_CTL determine the last targeted operating point." So seems it should be fine to just trigger wanted transition and go. Linux does the same.
