steakhutzeee Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 (edited) Hi, I'm running OMV on Odroid HC2. I updated to OMV 7.7.1. Armbian to 24.5.1 with Linux kernel 6.6.31-current-odroid-xu4. After reboot the server started to act very slow. I tried to reapply the DBT for HC1/2 via armbian-config but this did not help. armbian-config says I'm on ondemand governor between 200-200 MHz. What could be the issue? Actually my system says I should run dpkg --configure -a but this command hang here and the system reboots after few seconds... steakhutzeee@dk:~$ sudo dpkg --configure -a [sudo] password for steakhutzeee: Setting up containerd.io (1.6.33-1) ... EDIT: From armbian-config -> CPU (deprecated) I applied the max I could find. Now armbian-config states I'm running 1800-1800 MHz. I was able to successfully run the dpkg command and update my system. steakhutzeee@dk:~$ grep . /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/* /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/affected_cpus:0 1 2 3 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq:1400000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq:1400000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_min_freq:200000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_transition_latency:155000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/related_cpus:0 1 2 3 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies:200000 300000 400000 500000 600000 700000 800000 900000 1000000 1100000 1200000 1300000 1400000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors:userspace powersave conservative ondemand performance schedutil /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq:1400000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_driver:cpufreq-dt /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor:ondemand /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq:1400000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq:1400000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_setspeed:<unsupported> grep: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats: Is a directory I did: echo 1400000 | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq echo 200000 | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq If this issue with frequencies has to be fixed with an update, how can I set a correct frequency manually now? I'm afraid this high freq could cause damage actually. Thank you! Edited June 8 by steakhutzeee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steakhutzeee Posted June 8 Author Share Posted June 8 (edited) Thank you! Was looking there just now. I already did: echo 1400000 | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq echo 200000 | sudo tee /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq that resulted in steakhutzeee@dk:/sys/devices/system/cpu$ grep . /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/* /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/affected_cpus:0 1 2 3 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_cur_freq:1400000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_max_freq:1400000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_min_freq:200000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_transition_latency:155000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/related_cpus:0 1 2 3 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_frequencies:200000 300000 400000 500000 600000 700000 800000 900000 1000000 1100000 1200000 1300000 1400000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_available_governors:userspace powersave conservative ondemand performance schedutil /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_cur_freq:1400000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_driver:cpufreq-dt /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor:ondemand /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq:1400000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq:200000 /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_setspeed:<unsupported> grep: /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/stats: Is a directory But I see a different value in: steakhutzeee@dk:/sys/devices/system/cpu$ cat /etc/default/cpufrequtils ENABLE=true GOVERNOR=ondemand MAX_SPEED=2000000 MIN_SPEED=2000000 So which values should I set here? And how can I manage the edits I made before? Maybe this is true only when using DBT instead of using CPU under armbian-config? Thank you!

SteeMan Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 On boot the system will apply the values from /etc/default/cpufrequtils to the running system (it is done by the armbian hardware optimization service) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steakhutzeee Posted June 8 Author Share Posted June 8 (edited) Some questions here: Isn't cpurequtils deprecated? So any other edit to other file is just ignored on reboot? Could you suggest the appropriate values to apply for min/max? Just as a test I set it to false again, so not using cpurequtils and armbian-config says I'm between 2000 and 2000 Mhz. So, I suppose I'm using the values I applied before. Edited June 8 by steakhutzeee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteeMan Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 As of the 24.05 release Armbian no longer uses the package cpufrequtils. It now uses that configuration file directly, and replaces the basic functionality that the package cpufrequtils formerly provided. So the Armbian hardware optimization service reads this file and applies the values to the system, and armbian-config is responsible to modify it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Werner Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 Yeah cpufrequtils is deprecated. The way to go today seem to use linux-cpupower. No idea though how well this works on SBCs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hmof Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 I noticed that my HC2 was running slowly but didn't figure out why until I read this thread. Network performance was dismal too when measured with iperf3. On 6/9/2024 at 8:53 AM, SteeMan said: armbian-config is responsible to modify it Where do I find these settings in the config tool? I only see the "Set CPU speed and governor (deprecated)". In /etc/default/cpufrequtils I have ENABLE=false GOVERNOR="ondemand" MAX_SPEED="0" MIN_SPEED="0" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteeMan Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 Have you tried to use armbian-config to change the settings? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steakhutzeee Posted June 18 Author Share Posted June 18 (edited) @hmof which OS are you using? I'm using OMV and had to set these settings the OMV way, but at the end the source of truth is always etc/default/cpufrequtils If you are using OMV you have to use env variables to set the values and then deploy. In the end OMV use ENABLE=true, even if it is deprecated for armbian. Hope this helps. Edited June 18 by steakhutzeee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where, in the deprecated cpufrequtils section, or is there a new place? I did use that section and it worked. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
